Proclaiming the Kingdom of God | Acts 7:9-16

Anthony English | Acts 7:9-16

When Christians face opposition for their faith, it's natural to want to remain silent, but God remains with His people through persecution. Looking at Joseph and Stephen's stories, we see a pattern where God's chosen leaders often face resistance. Yet God uses this opposition for His greater purposes - Joseph saved his family during famine, and Stephen's testimony influenced future believers like Paul. Opposition cannot stop God's work, and remembering that 'God is with us' gives us the courage to stand firm. We can be bold as lions because the Almighty has our back, transforming our fear into faithful witness.
