How to Overcome Your FEAR of Witnessing

Understand that FEAR is normal.

“When I came to you, brothers, I did not come with eloquence or superior wisdom as I proclaimed to you the testimony about God. 2For I resolved to know nothing while I was with you except Jesus Christ and him crucified. 3I came to you in weakness and fear, and with much trembling.” 1 Corinthians 2:1-3

“For when we came into Macedonia, this body of ours had no rest, but we were harassed at every turn – conflicts on the outside, fears within.” 2 Corinthians 7:5

Ask FRIENDS to pray for you.

“Pray also for me… that I will fearlessly make known the mystery of the gospel… Pray that I may declare it fearlessly as I should.” Ephesians 6:19-20

Expect to FACE opposition.

“Do you remember what I told you “Do you remember what I told you? A servant is not greater than a master. Since they persecuted me, naturally they will persecute you.” John 15:20 (NLT)

Knowing it is God’s will, and with God’s help, starting RIGHT NOW I will not let fear keep me from witnessing.
