“BOLD PRAYERS”!!

Have you ever seen this kind of a sign!! I haven’t until now. I do believe that we all need to see and hear these words!! I do believe that we all need to see these words in front of us. We all need to pray to the Lord and say this out Loud when we are alone, for him to push the “Bold Prayers” through. So we can get things to happen. We also need to remember to be alone when we do these “bold prayers.”

I found this interesting article because we all need to hear these statements. God wants believers to be bold, not with arrogance, but with the Spirit-empowered courage to live out their faith, speak His truth, resist evil, and approach Him confidently, drawing strength from Jesus’ righteousness and forgiveness, acting fearlessly for justice, and stepping out of comfort zones to share the Gospel and do His will.

This boldness from knowing God is with you ( Joshua 1:9) and empowers authentic, courageous living, unlike lukewarm or fearful inaction. What Biblical Boldness Looks Like: ~ Fearless Proclamation: Speaking God’s word clearly, even when it’s difficult or unpopular ( Acts 4) ~ Authentic Living: Acting on your beliefs and not hiding your faith. ( Ephesians 3:12) ~ Confident Prayer: Approaching God’s throne with assurance, knowing your sins are forgiven and you’re clothed in His righteousness. ( Hebrews 4:16,2 Corinthians 3:12).

Resisting Evil: Having the courage to stand against sin and error, motivated by love for Christ ( Proverbs 28:1). ~ Spirit-Motivated by love for Christ ( Proverbs 28:1) ~Spirit Empowered Action: Acting on convictions with urgency, not recklessness, relying on the Holy Spirit ( Acts 4:31). Where it Comes From ( Not Personality). Righteousness in Christ: You are clothed in His righteousness, giving you confidence.

~ The Holy Spirit: He gives power, confidence, and boldness (2 Timothy 1:7). Forgiveness and Hope: Knowing you’re forgiven and have eternal hope enables bold living. ~ How to Cultivate It: Pray for it daily. Love God deeply in private. ~ Find an honest community that encourages you. ~ Step out of your comfort zone in small ways, like talking to someone new.

Boldness is really about God, then, and not about us. Rather than a personality trait, it’s an attribute of the Holy Spirit. Even if we don’t have a leadership role like Sheba or Esther, we can be bold because of the one who empowers us. When God resides in us and works through us, His strength sustains us.

Have you ever seen the real holy spirit? If you have ever looked at a real dove flying above you, or maybe you have seen a dove flying in the sky near a lake, etc. Think about the real holy spirit in you, or maybe you lost a loved one. Have you ever seen a butterfly flying around you? I know I have after my mother died. I was seeing a whole bunch of butterflies flying around my head or following me. It is awesome to see these things occur in real life.

How does the holy spirit give us boldness? …self-discipline”. Holy boldness arises from the Holy Spirit, who empowers believers with strength, love, and sound judgment to face challenges without fear. The Holy Spirit gives you boldness in the face of challenges!-… The Holy Spirit gives you boldness in the face of challenges! The Holy Spirit filled the disciples with courage and strength so that they preached boldly to those who needed to hear a message of repentance, turning their…

What is the right way to be bold for Jesus? Bold faith is choosing to trust God and take action, even when you don’t have all the answers. It’s believing that God is who He says He is and living like it’s true-praying big prayers, standing firm when life gets tough, and sharing His hope with others. What are the signs of being bold? Bold behavior is someone willing to take risks, speak up, try new things, and act despite uncertainty. Bold behavior is the set of actions that reflect confidence, courage, authenticity, and initiative.

I look at it this way: why does the Lord want us to be BOLD to PRAY the correct way? My thinking is that he wants to help us get through our lives wherever we go. He has a lot of things to put in our brains and think about what we can do in our lifetime !! He made us for a reason to be put on this earth!! I am typing in bold because it is a message from the Lord to me, but it is my job to help others understand!!
