21- March         Knock With Boldness

Acts 4:13    Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were uneducated and untrained men, they marveled. And they realized that they had been with Jesus. (NLT)

Who wouldn’t choose to walk in confidence and speak with boldness? But that gets really difficult when you’ve been without a job for a while. People start to comment on your inability to find work. They question your efforts, your persistence, your commitment, and maybe even your qualifications. In the face of the accusations and condemnation, it’s tough to be bold. That’s when this verse helps.

The disciples were uneducated and untrained men, with no skills and no training. But they were bold, because they had been with Jesus. That’s our solution too. Get with Jesus. Spend time with Him. Bask in His love before you go anywhere or do anything. You need an infusion of Christ every day of the job search if you intend to stay bold and confident. Go ahead, let people marvel at you too!

DECLARE THIS:
• I have been with Jesus and my confidence is unshakable.
• By faith I receive revelation of Christ in me and I am bold.
• I will not be discouraged by what others say; my God has equipped me for success.
