Are you bold to speak the truth when deception and lies are being proclaimed? Or, do you find it easy to stay silent because you feel too timid or you are concerned what people think of you?
I believe it is a time to rise up in boldness. Proverbs 28:1 says, “The righteous are as BOLD AS A LION.”
If we are not bold to speak the truth when we are not even facing persecution, how we will stand for truth in more difficult times? Our freedoms are being taken away. God’s timeless truths for marriage and family and the way He wants us to live are being shaken. Our current administration would like to take over the control of our families. They want to even take control of our bodies (Nehemiah 9:37). Are we standing up? If we don’t stand up now, we will lose more and more.
In a wedding ceremony the minister asks the question, “If anyone has any reason why these two should not be joined in holy matrimony, speak now or forever hold your peace.” If someone had a concern, it was their only chance to speak! I believe that this is our last opportunity. If we don’t speak now, we may not have another chance.
Imagine if ALL God-fearing families began to boldly speak the truth! Let’s start! Soak your children in God’s Word and His truth. Speak seeds of truth wherever you go. Never let a deception go unchallenged. Ever. Come on, let’s start being bold for God and His truth. Let’s hold up the banner. This may be our only chance.
