When we speak and perform an action for God and His glory, we are to perform it with boldness studying the examples in scripture of his called-out ones and praying for their courage. We examine in Acts 4 "the servants" being filled with the Holy Spirit and gaining the ability to speak with boldness and become verbal warriors of God's way. In the dictionaries, most English translations lack an essential element and nuance of a biblical definition of boldness. While most have courage and bravery in the English definitions, all the Biblical uses include the source of their ability to confront danger by having confidence in the power derived from someone or something else, God in the dominant case. Going through major examples of bold figures such as King David, Elijah, and Daniel's companions thrown in the furnace (Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego) we see how they used their faith in God's power they had seen demonstrated throughout their life to help them through the trials. Ultimately, we look for Christ during his trial as an example when the early church prayed for a boldness similar to Jesus' mentioned example in Acts 4. We must remember that the community and family of God derive their source of strength through the most High and that we fulfill His will throughout our daily lives and represent His way in an open way that shines His light and Spirit.
