Build Courageous People — David Stockton
The Apostle Paul emphasizes that true courage, as empowered by the Spirit, is characterized by power, love, and self-discipline rather than fear or timidity (2 Tim. 1:7). This divine courage is marked by a commitment to God's purposes and others' welfare, contrasting with cowardice and disorder. Biblical examples like David’s bravery against Goliath illustrate this courage, which is not about assertiveness or aggression but about meekness and strength under control, as exemplified by Jesus. He demonstrated ultimate courage and power through His sacrificial love on the cross. True courage involves enduring suffering well, loving those who are difficult to love, and embodying the strength of a lion with the gentleness of a lamb, reflecting God’s glory in our actions.
