A BibleSnippet 071021 —Saturday, July 10. We talk to God when we pray. He talks to us when we read his word —the Holy Bible”
Preview: Jesus said Christians will face persecution. We therefore must build our courage to be able to endure this when it comes our way. But How?
Scripture: Trembling at men is a snare, but the one trusting in Jehovah will be protected. —Prov. 29:25
Snippet: Christians build courage from their ministry. Each time we share a scripture with others it strengthens us. Just as exercising strengthens the body muscles, preaching strengthens our courage or spiritual muscles. The more we share God’s word with family, friends, and others, the stronger our courage becomes.
Overcome the Fear of Man
Because our preaching work builds trust in God, it also helps us overcome fear and it keeps us prepared to face any type of persecution ahead of us. Do you suppose Jesus knew this when he gave Christians the command to preach at Matt 28: 19-30.

Why A BibleSnippet 071021
A BibleSnippet 071021 was written to draw you closer to God even though it only takes a moment to read. They provide the reader with a short message for comfort and encouragement, and try to end with a link to a podcast study article for those who need more on the subject. A message they contain includes a scripture that attempts to remind people of God’s love. We draw readers to the things in our daily lives that are all around us to show God’s love. We do this with as few words as possible, and without losing the power of the Bible message it’s conveying. The Bible described God in this manner:
Closing Comments (More About God)
Ps. 103 8-15 “8 Jehovah is merciful and compassionate, slow to anger and abundant in loyal love. 9 He will not always find fault, Nor will he stay resentful forever. 10 He has not dealt with us according to our sins, Nor has he repaid us what our errors deserve. 11 For as the heavens are higher than the earth, So great is his loyal love toward those who fear him. 12 As far off as the sunrise is from the sunset, So far off from us he has put our transgressions.
13 As a father shows mercy to his sons, Jehovah has shown mercy to those who fear him. 14 For he well knows how we are formed, Remembering that we are dust. 15 As for mortal man, his days are like those of grass; He blooms like a blossom of the field. 16 But when a wind blows, it is no more, As though it was never there. 17 But the loyal love of Jehovah is for all eternity Toward those who fear him, And his righteousness toward their children’s children,”
