How To Grow In Boldness

1.  Spend more time with Jesus

“As they observed the confidence of Peter and John and understood that they were uneducated and untrained men, they were amazed, and began to recognize them as having been with Jesus.” Acts 4:13

2.  Ask God to make me bold

“‘Lord, take note of their threats, and grant that Your bond-servants may speak Your word with all confidence, while You extend Your hand to heal, and signs and wonders take place through the name of Your holy servant Jesus.’ And when they had prayed, the place where they had gathered together was shaken, and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak the word of God with boldness.” Acts 4:29-31

“Things which eye has not seen and ear has not heard, and which have not entered the human heart, all that God has prepared for those who love Him.” 1 Corinthians 2:9
