Matthew 19:26-But Jesus looked at them and said to them, “With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”
Have you ever had the opportunity to share Jesus with someone…like you knew that you knew that you knew that God had opened the doors, and this was the moment that you were supposed to walk through them, and share Jesus and you got scared? You didn’t do it?
Yeah, me, too! You’re not alone. In fact, the last time I remember this happening was about a year and a half ago. I had a lady ask me why I was so happy all the time and instead of sharing Jesus with her...my hands began to get sweaty, my face started turning red, the temperature in the room seemed to rise by about 100 degrees and I chickened out.
I had a problem, I believed a lie from the enemy that I didn’t have the right words.
The truth was, I was scared and instead of speaking God’s truth to myself in that moment:
2 Timothy 1:7- God did not give me a spirit of fear, but of power, love and a sound mind.
My mind went blank!

Then they began to understand the effect Jesus had on them simply by spending time with him.”
In this verse, we see that Peter and John had a bold courage. They didn’t have the bold courage, though, because they were naturally born with it. They received that bold courage because of spending time with Jesus.
Actually, Peter, if you remember the account of Jesus right before He goes to the cross doesn't just shy away from telling others about Jesus, but denies Jesus 3 times in one night!
Peter was so afraid…that same sweaty palms, red in the face, feeling like the temperature in the room just went up about 50 degrees, right? And he failed the test. He denied Jesus 3 times.
