LinkAcknowledge Christ Publicly

Scripture

Matthew 10

32 “Everyone who acknowledges me publicly here on earth, I will also acknowledge before my Father in heaven.

Observation

Jesus was sending out His disciples on a mission trip. He was giving them instructions. He was warning them that they would face persecution and He told them not to worry about people that had the power to kill them, but rather He told them that they should think about the One who had the power to kill them and cast them into Hell.

I love this passage: “28 “Don’t be afraid of those who want to kill your body; they cannot touch your soul. Fear only God, who can destroy both soul and body in hell.
29 What is the price of two sparrows—one copper coin? But not a single sparrow can fall to the ground without your Father knowing it. 30 And the very hairs on your head are all numbered. 31 So don’t be afraid; you are more valuable to God than a whole flock of sparrows.

Application

I will acknowledge Jesus publicly today. How about you?

Prayer

Heavenly Father, give me boldness today. Help me acknowledge You publicly. Don't let me let You down. I pray that tomorrow brings You glory and honor. I pray that many people put their faith in You.
