Walk Boldly With Jesus

Be Bold & Be Obedient Luke 1:38 “Then Mary said, “Here am I, the servant of the Lord; let it be with me according to your word.” Then the angel departed from her.” This month in mentoring, the theme is “For Such A Time As This.” Last week, I talked about Joseph and Moses and how they were in the perfect place at the perfect time. It wasn’t an easy road for them to get there. They were both broken...

Be Bold & Let Your Light Shine! 2 Timothy 1:5-6 “I am reminded of your sincere faith, a faith that dwelt first in your grandmother Lois and your mother Eunice and now, I am sure, dwells in you as well.  For this reason I remind you to fan into flame the gift of God, which is in you through the laying on of my hands.” I was listening to some praise and worship songs this morning and I was looking f...

Be Bold & Start With Love Psalm 63:1 “O God, you are my God, I seek you, my soul thirsts for you; my flesh faints for you, as in a dry and weary land where there is no water.” When I read this verse, I thought it did a great job explaining our yearning for God.  We all need God in our lives.  We are desperate to have him in our lives.  This verse shows this in a way I don’t think I could.  It also...

Be Bold & Keep asking! 1 Samuel 9:16 “Tomorrow about this time I will send to you a man from the land of Benjamin, and you shall anoint him to be ruler over my people Israel. He shall save my people from the hand of the Philistines, for I have seen the suffering of my people because their outcry has come to me.” The very last line stood out to me when I read this verse. In this verse, God talks to...

Today’s Witness if from my friend Jess. Yes went to a healing room at Faith Worship center recently and she received an amazing healing. I will read to you what she posted on Facebook because she was there and can describe it much better than I can. Here is her testimony. Ok so now everyone at church knows what happened! I AM GOING TO TELL EVERYONE!!!!! I went to healing rooms at Faith Worship Cen...

Be Bold & Be Like Daniel Daniel 6:10 “Although Daniel knew that the document had been signed, he continued to go to his house, which had windows in its upper room open toward Jerusalem, and to get down on his knees three times a day to pray to his God and praise him, just as he had done previously.” This verse may not make much sense if you don’t know the context. Once you do, you can see Daniel's...

Be Bold & Listen To God! Acts 18:9-10 “One night, the Lord appeared to Paul in a vision and said, “Do not be afraid. Continue with your preaching, and do not be silent, for I am with you. No one will attack you or try to harm you, for there are many in this city who are my people.” I always get a bit jealous when I hear verses that say the Lord appeared to so and so in a dream or an angel visited...

Be Bold & Experience Signs & Wonders Matthew 10:7-8 “As you go, proclaim the good news, ‘The kingdom of heaven has come near.’ Cure the sick; raise the dead; cleanse those with a skin disease; cast out demons. You received without payment; give without payment.” I saw this verse this morning, and I thought it was a great verse for today. As you can tell from a lot of the verses I have been sharing...

Be Bold & Do the Works Jesus Did! John 14:12-13 “Amen, amen, I say to you, whoever believes in me will do the works that I do, and will do greater ones than these, because I am going to the Father. And whatever you ask in my name, I will do, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask anything of me in my name, I will do it.” This is one of my favorite verses in the Bible.  it is on...

Today’s Witnesses are from the Encounter Ministries NorthEast Regional Conference that I just attended this past weekend. I had the privilege of being on a prayer team with someone who I had never met before. This is how they usually do it. If you are selected for prayer teams, you are assigned a partner that you do not know. I like this because you get to meet someone new and also because you get...

Be Bold & Do It Anyway Esther 4:14  For if you remain silent at this time, relief and deliverance for the Jews will arise from another place, but you and your father’s family will perish. And who knows but that you have come to your royal position for such a time as this?”   I think we can all agree that the world is a pretty crazy place right now. In America, there is so much disagreement and arg...

Be Bold & Be An Ambassador For Christ! 2 Corinthians 5:20-21 “So we are ambassadors for Christ since God is making his appeal through us; we entreat you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God. For our sake, he made him to be sin who knew no sin so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.” I love this verse because it reminds us that we are all ambassadors for Christ. This is true w...

Be Bold! Deuteronomy 31:7-8 “Then Moses summoned Joshua and said to him in the sight of all Israel: “Be strong and bold, for you are the one who will go with this people into the land that the Lord has sworn to their ancestors to give them; and you will put them in possession of it. It is the Lord who goes before you. He will be with you; he will not fail you or forsake you. Do not fear or be dism...

Be Bold & Turn To God (Be Bold Series) Psalm 138:7-8 “Though I walk in the midst of trouble, you preserve my life. You stretch out your hand against the anger of my foes; with your right hand, you save me. The Lord will vindicate me; your love, Lord, endures forever—do not abandon the works of your hands. When I read this passage, I got the picture of a football player holding the ball in his righ...

I am your host Catherine Duggan, however, each Wednesday I will have a guest give their witness of how God is working in their lives.

Be Bold & Be Content! Philippians 4:11-13 “Not that I am referring to being in need; for I have learned to be content with whatever I have.  I know what it is to have little, and I know what it is to have plenty. In any and all circumstances I have learned the secret of being well-fed and of going hungry, of having plenty and of being in need.  I can do all things through him who strengthens me.”...

Be Bold & Be Purified (Be Bold Series) 1 Peter 1:6-7 "I know how great this makes you feel, even though you have to put up with every kind of aggravation in the meantime. Pure gold put in the fire comes out of it proved pure; genuine faith put through this suffering comes out proved genuine. When Jesus wraps this all up, it’s your faith, not your gold, that God will have on display as evidence of...

Be Bold & Accept God’s Love Romans 8:35 “Who could ever divorce us from the endless love of God’s Anointed One? Absolutely no one! For nothing in the universe has the power to diminish his love toward us. Troubles, pressures, and problems are unable to come between us and heaven’s love. What about persecutions, deprivations, dangers, and death threats? No, for they are all impotent to hinder omnip...

Be Bold & Fix Your Eyes On Jesus (Be Bold Series) Matthew 14:26-31 “ When the disciples saw him walking on the sea, they were terrified. “It is a ghost,” they said, and they cried out in fear.  At once, [Jesus] spoke to them, “Take courage, it is I; do not be afraid.” Peter said to him in reply, “Lord, if it is you, command me to come to you on the water.”  He said, “Come.” Peter got out of the bo...

Today’s Witness is from a friend of mine named Ed. Ed is a part of my prayer group and a student at Encounter School of Ministry Boston. The same program I graduated from last May. Ed went to Belize on a mission trip with the Encounter School. There were 37 of them that went to Belize. They went out on the streets to pray for those who wanted it. Ed talks about the amazing experience it was and so...

Be Bold & Have Radical Trust (Be Bold Series) Daniel 3:17 “If our God, whom we serve, can save us from the white-hot furnace and from your hands, oh king, may he save us!  But even if he will not, know, O king, that we will not serve your god or worship the golden statue which you set up.” Radical Trust was new to me when I attended a conference in March 2011.  I had seen radical trust in action m...

Be Bold & Praise While You Wait (Be Bold Series) Acts 16:25-28 “About midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God, and the other prisoners were listening to them.  Suddenly, there was such a violent earthquake that the foundations of the prison were shaken. At once, all the prison doors flew open, and everyone’s chains came loose. The jailer woke up, and when he saw the prison do...

Be Bold & Step Forward in Faith ( Be Bold Series) Hebrews 11:1-2 “Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.  For by it the men of old received divine approval.” I have done the Bible in a Year podcast with Father Mike for two years.  This year, he is doing the Catechism of the Catholic Church in a Year.  The Catechism aims to summarize in book form the main...

Be Bold & Fight Your Battles (Be Bold Series) Hebrews 12:1-2 "Therefore, since we are encompassed with such a great cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight and the sin that so easily entangles us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us. Let us look to Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despisi...

Witness Wednesday #150 911 Miracle Today’s witnesses are actually two things I read on line and really wanted to share them with you. The first one is about how good God is, even in a tragedy. It is a story about what happened to one family on the terrible day of September 11, 2001. The second one is about a little boy who had extraordinary courage to speak up against someone a lot older than he w...
