“And the Lord said to Paul one night in a vision, “Do not be afraid, but go on speaking and do not be silent, for I am with you, and no one will attack you to harm you, for I have many in this city who are my people.” And he stayed a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them. But when Gallio was proconsul of Achaia, the Jews made a united attack on Paul and brought him before the tribunal, saying, “This man is persuading people to worship God contrary to the law.””
‭‭Acts‬ ‭18:9-13‬ ‭ESV‬‬

All,This stands out because the Lord says, “Do not be afraid, but go on speaking and do not be silent, for I am with you”. Do you ever pause to speak about Jesus because of what someone might say? The history of the world has been mostly hostile to Christianity and we shouldn’t be shocked at the world we live in now. The world doesn’t mind if you just worship privately, but it feels threatened when we speak about Christ publicly and it will continue to get worse. Please pray that we and our friends will explain our love for Christ no matter the consequences. Please pray for the victims of sex trafficking.
