Filled with the Holy Spirit and spoke the word of God boldly

Acts 4:23-37

On their release, Peter and John went back to their own people and reported all that the chief priests and the elders had said to them. When they heard this, they raised their voices together in prayer to God. “Sovereign Lord,” they said, “you made the heavens and the earth and the sea, and everything in them. You spoke by the Holy Spirit through the mouth of your servant, our father David:  Why do the nations rage and the peoples plot in vain? The kings of the earth rise up and the rulers band together against the Lord and against his anointed one.

Now, Lord, consider their threats and enable your servants to speak your word with great boldness. Stretch out your hand to heal and perform signs and wonders through the name of your holy servant Jesus. After they prayed, the place where they were meeting was shaken. And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and spoke the word of God boldly.

All the believers were one in heart and mind. No one claimed that any of their possessions was their own, but they shared everything they had. 

Why?

The procedure is 1) praise the Lord, 2) Know the Lord has known everything. 3)The issues of prayer do not remove the difficulties and do not mention the miracle and fear.

All of them come together and share what they have, with one heart one mind, and one body.

The Holy Spirit encourages us to speak the word of God boldly.

How?

With the Holy Spirit don't be afraid to speak the word of God. Pray to the Lord to enable your servants to speak your word with great coldness.
