A Prayer to Share the Good News Boldly | Your Daily Prayer

Many Christians long to share their faith but struggle with fear, uncertainty, or a lack of confidence. Yet Scripture shows us that bold evangelism begins not with a strategy, but with a heart captivated by Jesus Himself. In Luke 2, the shepherds encountered the newborn Christ and immediately “spread the word,” becoming some of the first evangelists in the New Testament. Their example challenges us to consider what passionate witness could look like in our own lives. When we truly love Christ, we naturally want to talk about Him—and God uses ordinary people to make His extraordinary news known.

Your Daily Prayer

Lord Jesus, thank You for the incomparable gift of knowing You. Fill my heart with a deeper love for You—one that naturally overflows into conversations and actions that point others to Your grace. Make me bold like the shepherds who joyfully shared the news of Your birth, and like the disciples who testified fearlessly through the power of Your Spirit. When I feel uncertain or afraid, strengthen me. When I struggle for words, guide me in truth and grace. Let my life reflect Your goodness so others may be drawn to You.
Amen.
