Dare To Declare!

By : Chris Chandler

 

God spoke to me recently and what He said caused a stirring deep within me. He told me to "Dare to Declare!" We, as believers, need to get bold and radical in speaking God's Word. God wants us to "Dare to Declare" that He still heals, "Dare to Declare" that He still delivers, and "Dare to Declare" that He still moves in signs, wonders, and miracles. We must stand up in these last days and boldly declare that God is the same today as He has always been and that He will show forth His glory!

Declare His Glory Among The Nations

1 Chronicles 16:8-9 & 24 NIV

Give thanks to the LORD, call on His name; make known among the nations what He has done. Sing to Him, sing praise to Him; tell of all His wonderful acts... Declare His glory among the nations, His marvelous deeds among all peoples.

Christians need to be bold about what God can do! We need to declare to all the world what God has done, what He is doing, and what He is going to do. We are in the time of the end, and as the army of God, we need to rise up and declare God's Glory (or goodness). When we do this, He will confirm His Word with signs, miracles, and wonders.

The Power Of God's Word

Mark 16:20 Amp.

And they went out and preached everywhere, while the Lord kept working with them and confirming the message by the attesting signs and miracles that closely accompanied [it].

Just before Jesus was taken up into heaven, He said to go into all the world and preach the good news to all creation (Mark 16:15). By proclaiming His Name

We need to get radical and declare the promises of God to a lost and dying world

and preaching the gospel, we are able to cast out demons, heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, and raise the dead. If we dare to declare God's word, awesome signs and miracles will follow! God will not allow His Word to return void, but it will accomplish that which it is sent forth to do (Isaiah 55:11). We need to get radical and declare the promises of God to a lost and dying world.

Let's Get Radical For Jesus!

1 Thessalonians 2:2

We had previously suffered and been insulted in Philippi, as you know, but with the help of our God we dared to tell you His gospel in spite of strong opposition.

Paul dared to declare the good news of Jesus despite strong opposition. He was radical! He was driven to declare the gospel, no matter what got in his way. Paul was filled to overflowing with the Holy Ghost which enabled him to boldly declare God's word. He had been radically transformed into the image of Christ by the Spirit of the Living God.

God is no respecter of persons. Just like Paul, you also can be bold and radical for Jesus. Simply ask Him to fill you up with His Spirit. You will begin to see yourself being transformed into the image of Christ. After all, Jesus was the most radical man ever. He was not afraid to speak whatever His Father in Heaven told Him to speak. We should not be, either!

We need to "Dare to Declare!"
