“For two whole years Paul stayed there in his own rented house and welcomed all who came to see him.  He proclaimed the kingdom of God and taught about the Lord Jesus Christ-with all boldness and without hindrance!”  Acts 28:30-31

Lord Jesus, You have given me faith in you and have joined me to yourself.  You have also invited me and called me and even sent me out into this world with the gospel that saves people.  I am often afraid.  I am often distracted by life.  I am often not paying attention to the gospel opportunities that you give me every day.  Forgive me, dear Jesus.  I pray, make me attentive to the gospel opportunities that you give me.  Make me bold to speak up when the opportunities arise.  More than that, I pray, press forward with your gospel through me and through your whole church on earth.  Let nothing hinder the gospel preaching whether by me or be others.  Bring peace and calm to our country for the sake of quiet lives and, more so, for the sake of the gospel.  Father, you desire that every soul in this world would be yours for all eternity.  I pray, continue to march forward through your church to bring more souls along to heaven.  You have invited me to join you on this mission.  I want to come.  Help me to follow where you lead and to share the gospel with all boldness and without hindrance.  Amen.

By faith, you, dear Christian, are a part of the gospel movement.  God will not stop on his mission to save the world through the message about Jesus.  Now, he invites you to come along.  It will be a wild ride.  But when we’re going along with him, we can’t fail.  Join him, won’t you?
