Be EMBOLDENED In The FAITH: There’s No Room For The COWARDICE In The GOSPEL!
FEAR captivates, it robs one of purpose, it belittles one, intimidates one, and enshrined the COWARDICE mindsets into one’s being. Then steals ones joy, kills ones vision and destroys ones path to become in LIFE and GRACE.
“For God did not give us a spirit of TIMIDITY or COWARDICE or FEAR, but [He has given us a spirit] of POWER and of LOVE and of SOUND JUDGMENT and PERSONAL DISCIPLINE [abilities that result in a calm, well-balanced mind and self-control]” 2 Timothy 1:7 AMPLIFIED.
Unlike Fear, FAITH pleases God, overcomes the WORLDS settings and it inspires, stimulates, empowers, strengthen and emboldened ones being in every way to thrive, live meaningfully, purposefully and fulfilling in LIFE and GRACE.
“Through FAITH we understand that the WORLDS were FRAMED BY THE WORD of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear . . . 6 But WITHOUT FAITH it is IMPOSSIBLE to PLEASE him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him” Hebrews 11:3, 6.
“For whatsoever is born of God OVERCOMETH THE WORLD: and this is the VICTORY that OVERCOMETH THE WORLD, even our FAITH. 5 Who is he that OVERCOMETH THE WORLD, but he that BELIEVETH that Jesus is the Son of God?” 1 John 5:4-5.
Suffix to know that Jesus Christ is Saviour, Lord and King OVER ALL, irrespective of stands today. Hence, been a coward instead of been emboldened of the GOSPEL to make a difference in such a time as this PRESENT WORLD predicament, is unwarranted.
“. . . 36 The WORD which God sent to the children of Israel, preaching peace through Jesus Christ—HE IS LORD OF ALL— . . .” Acts 10:34-37 NKJV.
Being emboldened in FAITH is the only PATH to ensure TRIUMPH and VICTORY over the current climate of human limitations in the affairs of DOING LIFE and LIVING Godly in Christ Jesus stead.
“Herein is our love MADE perfect, that we may have BOLDNESS in the DAY of JUDGMENT: because AS HE IS, SO ARE WE IN THIS WORLD. 18 There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love” 1 John 4:17-18.
It’s time to say to oneself – IF GOD SAID IT, I BELIEVE IT AND THAT SETTLES IT. Just as in Bible days, they overcome him the enemy and cohorts by the BLOOD OF THE LAMB – Jesus Christ, and by their FAITH TESTIMONY and refused to compromised their FAITH even unto death possibility.
Today – are you EMBOLDENED IN YOUR FAITH in Christ Jesus? Or in the bondage of religion by belonging to a renowned denominational Church? Can you stand up TALL for your FAITH in Christ Jesus today? Which rules in you – FEAR or FAITH? JUST TO LET YOU KNOW – THERE’S NO MIDDLE GROUND!
Make your FAITH in Christ Jesus VISIBLE to give HOPE, FAITH and LOVE to humanity in such a time as this PRESENT WORLD predicament that has implications spiritually, physically and economically.
