Empowered
to Speak
The Spirit that Jesus gives us empowers us to speak. Often when we are
expected to speak in front of people who intimidate us, we are nervous and
self-conscious. But if we live in the Spirit, we don't have to worry about what
to say. We will find ourselves ready to speak when the need is there.
"When they take you before ... authorities, do not worry about how to
defend yourselves or what to say, because when the time comes, the Holy Spirit
will teach you what you should say" (Luke 12:11-12).
We waste much of our time in anxious preparation. Let's claim the truth that
the Spirit that Jesus gave us will speak in us and speak convincingly.

Michael Hii When we know the truth and speak the
truth, there is nothing to prepare!
