Micah 3:8 ” But as for me, I am filled with power, with the Spirit of the Lord, and with justice and might, to declare to Jacob his transgression, to Israel his sin.”

The OT prophets had it pretty rough.  They faced rebuke and persecution from all sides, especially when their message was the total opposite of what the people wanted to hear.  So where did this boldness come from?  How were these mild-mannered, many times even timid men able to stand before Kings and High Priests proclaiming God’s Word?   It was the Holy Spirit within, enabling them to go boldly into battle for the Lord.  Are you brave enough to pray the prayer the Apostles did in Acts 4:29?  ” Now, Lord, consider their threats and enable your servants to speak Your Word with great boldness.”  Boldness empowered by the Holy Spirit will change your perception.  For you’ll no longer have your limited vision, but God’s.
