God makes us bold and stouthearted

Psalm 138:3(God makes us bold by answering us)

Acts 4:29, 13, and 31 (They were all filled with the Holy Spirit and spoke the word of God boldly)
                13 When they saw the courage of Peter and John and realized that they were unschooled, ordinary men, they were astonished and they took note that these men had been with Jesus.
            29 Now, Lord, consider their threats and enable your servants to speak your word with great boldness. 30 Stretch out your hand to heal and perform signs and wonders through the name of your holy servant Jesus.”
31 After they prayed, the place where they were meeting was shaken. And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and spoke the word of God boldly.


Acts 9:27(Barnabas told apostles how soul preached fearlessly in the name of Jesus)
                27 But Barnabas took him and brought him to the apostles. He told them how Saul on his journey had seen the Lord and that the Lord had spoken to him, and how in Damascus he had preached fearlessly in the name of Jesus.

Acts 13:46(Paul and Barnabas answered them boldly)
                46 Then Paul and Barnabas answered them boldly: “We had to speak the word of God to you first. Since you reject it and do not consider yourselves worthy of eternal life, we now turn to the Gentiles.

Acts 14:3(Paul and Barnabas spent considerable time, speaking boldly for the Lord by enabling them to perform signs and wonders)
                3 So Paul and Barnabas spent considerable time there, speaking boldly for the Lord, who confirmed the message of his grace by enabling them to perform signs and wonders.

Acts 28:31(Paul proclaimed the kingdom of God and taught about the Lord Jesus Christ—with all boldness and without hindrance!)
                30 For two whole years Paul stayed there in his own rented house and welcomed all who came to see him. 31 He proclaimed the kingdom of God and taught about the Lord Jesus Christ—with all boldness and without hindrance!

Eph 6:19(we should pray that words may be given me so that we will fearlessly make known the mystery of the gospel)
                19 Pray also for me, that whenever I speak, words may be given me so that I will fearlessly make known the mystery of the gospel, 20 for which I am an ambassador in chains. Pray that I may declare it fearlessly, as I should.

Php 1:14(Paul’s chains advance the Gospel)
