Free Accompanying videos can be found in the MessengerX app by John Bevere. 

Boldness is awakened in the life of a believer when they realize God has given them a spirit of power, love, and soundness of mind. These virtues are necessary to stir up your gift and to boldly confront intimidation.

• God must be our source of strength.

• True boldness comes from God and is fueled by the virtues of power, love, and soundness of mind.

• When we try to be bold in our own strength, it is often a mask for arrogance or ignorance.

REFLECT

1. You’re only as strong as your source of strength. Does your strength come from God? How has God’s power changed your life?

2. Consider David’s confrontation with Goliath. When you are faced with intimidating situations, what kind of words usually come out of your mouth? What “giants” do you need to confront right no?

READ

-Consider David’s experience with his older brother, Eliab. Why do people who are proud and intimidated become angry with those who exemplify boldness?

Do you find yourself responding to others like Eliab responded to David? If so, why?

RESPOND

The LORD is my light and my salvation—so why should I be afraid? The LORD is my fortress, protecting me from danger, so why should I tremble? (Psalm 27:4)

Therefore I remind you to stir up the gift of God which is in you through the laying on of my hands. (2 Timothy 1:6 NKJV)

I have strength for all things in Christ Who empowers me [I am ready for anything and equal to anything through Him Who infuses inner strength into me; I am self-sufficient in Christ’s sufficiency]. (Philippians 4:13 AMPC)

RESPOND

I declare, the Lord is my fortress and strength. I fear no one! I stir up the gift of God within me. I have strength for all things in Christ Who empowers me. I am ready for anything and am equal to anything through Him Who infuses inner strength into me. I am self-sufficient in Christ’s sufficiency.
