Not Ashamed: The Power of the Gospel

As we look throughout history, we can recall men of conviction that stood for a cause or country even though the cost to them personally was high.  We take courage in those sacrifices as they help us develop our own character and establish our stand for matter that are important to us.

So as we consider our faith, God calls us to stand for Him and His purpose; to be people who are willing to trust in His power and in the message of His plan that is accomplished through Christ.  The devil would try to distract us with fear and shame. Satan's desire is to weaken us-to keep us from standing strong. (Matt. 26:69-75)  But the gospel message is one of power, God's power!  To those who are willing to use it, the gospel can accomplish all that God wants from His people. (1 Cor. 1:18-25)

God always prevails! The gospel is His message of power about His Son, His plan, and how He will save us from sin.  What can we learn that we might be persuaded to boldly speak about Him?
