HOW DO I DEVELOP THE ESSENTIAL QUALITY OF BOLDNESS?

1.  _____________ ___________ WITH OTHERS THAT I AM A FOLLOWER OF JESUS.

Colossians 4:5 (NLT) — 5 Live wisely among those who are not believers, and make the most of every opportunity.

1 Thessalonians 2:8 (NLT) — 8 We loved you so much that we shared with you not only God’s Good News but our own lives, too.

2.  ___________ ______ _________ FOR OTHERS WHEN THEY SHARE THEIR STRUGGLES WITH ME.

1 Timothy 2:1 (NLT) — 1 I urge you, first of all, to pray for all people. Ask God to help them; intercede on their behalf, and give thanks for them.

3. ________ __________ OUT MY FAITH PUBLICLY AND PRIVATELY.

1 Corinthians 4:20 (NLT) — 20 For the Kingdom of God is not just a lot of talk; it is living by God’s power.

1 Timothy 1:15–16 (NLT) — 15 This is a trustworthy saying, and everyone should accept it: “Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners”—and I am the worst of them all. 16 But God had mercy on me so that Christ Jesus could use me as a prime example of his great patience with even the worst sinners. Then others will realize that they, too, can believe in him and receive eternal life.

4. _________ _______________ TO INVITE MY FRIENDS AND FAMILY TO CHURCH.

Colossians 4:2–4 (NLT) — 2 Devote yourselves to prayer with an alert mind and a thankful heart. 3 Pray for us, too, that God will give us many opportunities to speak about his mysterious plan concerning Christ. That is why I am here in chains. 4 Pray that I will proclaim this message as clearly as I should.

5. ________ _______ AND SHARE MY FAITH WITH THOSE WHO DON’T KNOW JESUS.

Romans 10:3–4 (NLT) — 3 For they don’t understand God’s way of making people right with himself. Refusing to accept God’s way, they cling to their own way of getting right with God by trying to keep the law. 4 For Christ has already accomplished the purpose for which the law was given. As a result, all who believe in him are made right with God.

Romans 10:14 (NLT) — 14 But how can they call on him to save them unless they believe in him? And how can they believe in him if they have never heard about him? And how can they hear about him unless someone tells them?

Romans 1:16 (NLT) — 16 For I am not ashamed of this Good News about Christ. It is the power of God at work, saving everyone who believes—the Jew first and also the Gentile.

My NEXT STEP today is to…….

⦁ Memorize Romans 1:16.
⦁ Develop and write out my Personal Testimony
⦁ Invite my friends and family to church and look for opportunities to share my faith.

Acts 26:28–29 (NLT) — 28 Agrippa interrupted him. “Do you think you can persuade me to become a Christian so quickly?” 29 Paul replied, “Whether quickly or not, I pray to God that both you and everyone here in this audience might become the same as I am, except for these chains.”
