Bible Reading: 2090816

Philippians 1-4

 

“But I would ye should understand, brethren, that the things which happened unto me have fallen out rather unto the furtherance of the gospel; So that my bonds in Christ are manifest in all the palace, and in all other places; And many of the brethren in the Lord, waxing confident by my bonds, are much more bold to speak the word without fear.” Philippians 1:12-14

 

Lord, I fear that these types of things that happened to Paul that caused the gospel to be furthered; in my own life would serve only to deter me from truly following Thee. Lord, I truly am weak and incapable without Thee. I pray that my life would reflect the truth that is found in Thy word and that You would help me to seek to win the lost. Lord, I fear that my personal testimony is not one of a stout believer in Jesus Christ but as someone who is mediocre and timid when it comes to sharing the truth of Jesus Christ. Help me now to stand with boldness and proclaim the name of Jesus Christ regardless of the earthly consequences.
