Proverbs - Confidence Comes From Obedience

Proverbs 28:1

The wicked flee when no man pursueth:
 but the righteous are bold as a lion.


If we are doing what the Lord says is right we don’t have to run.  We can face a situation trusting in the breastplate of righteousness to protect our hearts.  If you have to attend a gathering where you are afraid of someone ask the Lord if you are being wicked or being righteous.  If you stand with a clean conscience before the Lord it doesn’t matter who is there.  You don’t have to cower, you can be as bold as a lion.  A lion belongs.  He doesn’t have to roar.  He just walks through the jungle with a disposition that he has every right to be there.  If you find yourself fleeing, be open to the Holy Spirit showing you where you might have done something wicked.  If you are walking in an upright manner, you, like the lion, can go anywhere without being intimidated.
