1 Thessalonians 2:2 “But even after that we had suffered before, and were shamefully entreated, as ye know, at Philippi, we were bold in our God to speak unto you the gospel of God with much contention.”BOLDNESS: Are you b o l d for God—or bold for this world and its empty attractions?Can the Lord count on you to stand upright and speak His truth without flinching? Or will you fold under pressure when the enemies of God rise up?Let’s be plain: Political rhetoric will not save America. God has already chosen His institution: the Church. God has already chosen His soldiers: Christians. God has already chosen His weapon: the Sword of the Spirit—His Holy Word.If you lean on your fists or your politics instead of God’s power, then you’ve traded the eternal for the earthly. You’ve stepped away from the faith and settled for man’s ideas instead of God’s strength.The Church — The Christian — The Book.These are God’s means of victory.And the gates of Hell cannot overcome them.So stand firm. Speak the truth.Be bold in your God—especially when the world pushes back.
