Acts of the Apostles‬ ‭20:20‬ ‭NLT‬‬ I never shrank back from telling you what you needed to hear, either publicly or in your homes.

Everything God tells us to say is not always going to be rainbows and butterflies. Some of the things He’ll tell us to say may sting.

For instance, if we have a friend who’s doing things contrary to God’s word, God may instruct us to tell that person (in love; not judgment) about their behavior. We have a choice to make. We can do what God says and tell them or, shrink back because we don’t want to offend them or lose a friend. It’s better to obey God and plant a seed of repentance rather than watching our friend’s life spiral out control. If we love them, we’ll tell the truth in love (Eph. 4:15).

Fear may come after getting instructions from God, but don’t shrink back. Be bold enough to say whatever God instructs you to say.
