Act 18:9-10 Then spake the Lord to Paul in the night by a vision, Be not afraid, but speak, and hold not thy peace: For I am with thee, and no man shall set on thee to hurt thee: for I have much people in this city.
All the Jews were out to get Paul everywhere he went because of his message about Jesus being the Messiah. As you know, the Jews were the ones who had him hung on the cross because they refused to believe.
I love this scripture because it is reassuring.
Many times when you share your faith you are shot down, talked about, threatened, or have doors slammed in your face. But through it all, God is right there by your side helping you through it. It pleases Him that we are working so hard to to His will. He protects us from harm, and continues to minister to those who turned us away because where His word is sent, it will not return void.
So hold not thy peace. Proclaim to the world that Christ is Lord. He is risen. And Jesus saves!
