Equipped
After the man was healed at the Gate Beautiful, Peter spoke boldly to the crowds.
Peter and John hadn’t taken public speaking courses, they didn’t have a theology background and they hadn’t read books on how to engage the public.
Those watching and listening to them knew they were uneducated and untrained and yet they spoke boldly and with power.
The key is that they had been with Jesus.
When you have been with Jesus things happen.
Jesus will call you and if you are willing, He will equip you like no course can.
The Holy Spirit will come upon you and equip you with the words, the boldness and the power you require in any given situation.
Today is not the day to step back from the call of the Lord on your life because you think you are not qualified.
Get with Jesus and then allow the Holy Spirit to equip you.
He will equip you like no other.
