“Aggressively Bold”
“You must go out and witness,- Deliberately go out to witness just like fasting.
You carry the anointing everywhere you go” Dr. Goudeaux


Matthew 11:11, 12
11Verily I say unto you, Among them that are born of women there hath not risen a greater than John the Baptist: notwithstanding he that is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he. 12And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force

• Least is greater (our position)
• Verse 12- Aggressive boldness defined…
• Forcefully advancing through violent people attacking
• You must get things done
• But this can only be accomplished by the Supernatural
• Time is of the urgency, people need Christ
• Satan fears/trembles at your position
• Division is satan’s greatest device
• Signs/Wonders are GOD’s greatest miracle


Acts 4:5-8,10,13,23,32
5And it came to pass on the morrow, that their rulers, and elders, and scribes, 6 And Annas the high priest, and Caiaphas, and John, and Alexander, and as many as were of the kindred of the high priest, were gathered together at Jerusalem. 7And when they had set them in the midst, they asked, By what power, or by what name, have ye done this? 8Then Peter, filled with the Holy Ghost, said unto them, Ye rulers of the people, and elders of Israel, 10Be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, even by him doth this man stand here before you whole. 13Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were unlearned and ignorant men, they marvelled; and they took knowledge of them, that they had been with Jesus. 23And being let go, they went to their own company, and reported all that the chief priests and elders had said unto them. 29And now, Lord, behold their threatenings: and grant unto thy servants, that with all boldness they may speak thy word32And the multitude of them that believed were of one heart and of one soul: neither said any of them that ought of the things which he possessed was his own; but they had all things common.

Acts 5:1-15
11And great fear came upon all the church, and upon as many as heard these things. 12And by the hands of the apostles were many signs and wonders wrought among the people; (and they were all with one accord in Solomon's porch. 13And of the rest durst no man join himself to them: but the people magnified them. 14And believers were the more added to the Lord, ultitudes both of men and women.) 15Insomuch that they brought forth the sick into the streets, and laid them on beds and couches, that at the least the shadow of Peter passing by might overshadow some of them…….
.
• When operating with boldness the Gifts of the Spirit become active – vs. 11
• Another level of boldness was achieved - vs.12
• When boldness occurs men and women are added
• Be careful of the flesh rising up when operating in boldness
• Always operate in/under the Spirit of GOD
• Be aware that the Church is still in the book of Acts
• These signs/wonders would be occurring if you were operating in boldness
• The church has become traditionalized - So the power of GOD can’t manifest


Acts 19:2-6, 8, 11,12
2He said unto them, Have ye received the Holy Ghost since ye believed? And they said unto him, We have not so much as heard whether there be any Holy Ghost. 3And he said unto them, Unto what then were ye baptized? And they said, Unto John's baptism. 4Then said Paul, John verily baptized with the baptism of repentance, saying unto the people, that they should believe on him which should come after him, that is, on Christ Jesus. 5When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. 6And when Paul had laid his hands upon them, the Holy Ghost came on them; and they spake with tongues, and prophesied. 8And he went into the synagogue, and spake boldly for the space of three months, disputing and persuading the things concerning the kingdom of God. 11And God wrought special miracles by the hands of Paul: 12So that from his body were brought unto the sick handkerchiefs or aprons, and the diseases departed from them, and the evil spirits went out of them.


• Laying on of hands
• Some received their healing because of their perception/belief
• Don’t be intimidated - Be bold!
• Speak boldly concerning the Kingdom of GOD



Mark 6:56
56And whithersoever he entered, into villages, or cities, or country, they laid the sick in the streets, and besought him that they might touch if it were but the border of his garment: and as many as touched him were made whole.

• The power of GOD is real
• He will use you if you are bold
• He wants to take you to another level with your boldness

“Boldness & Not Ashamed”



Ephesians 3:12
12 In whom we have boldness and access with confidence by faith of him.

• Powerful words to focus on:
Boldness - Access - Confidence (by faith of Him)
• Memorize and Confess


Philippians 1:19, 20
19For I know that this shall turn to my salvation through your prayer, and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ, 20According to my earnest expectation and my hope, that in nothing I shall be ashamed, but that with all boldness, as always, so now also Christ shall be magnified in my body, whether it be by life, or by death.

• KJV and Amplified read: Paul said “I know…”
• Paul was steadfast and bold while he was under fire
• Sometimes, you have to go through the storm to build character
• Some stay in the storm because they don’t learn from it

Romans 1:16
16For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.

• Understand the culture at the time
• Jesus was thought to be a criminal, false prophet...
• Paul had changed (Damascus road) and started embracing Jesus
• So Paul was being questioned about now following Jesus
• For I am not ashamed was a bold statement

Romans 9:33
33As it is written, Behold, I lay in Sion a stumblingstone and rock of offence: and whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.
.
• “When shame comes, boldness goes” Dr. Goudeaux
• Shame does not want you to be bold
• Shame will have you question yourself


No intimidation allowed. [Jackson family example given] GOD will give you the opportunity to be unashamed with someone (group) that opposes Him. Unashamed people speak with a different spirit and anointing. Make a commitment to be unashamed.

1 Peter 4:16
16Yet if any man suffer as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God on this behalf.


• When going through - Don’t be ashamed
• Knowing you have hope and expectation

1 John 2:28
28And now, little children, abide in him; that, when he shall appear, we may have confidence, and not be ashamed before him at his coming.

• You shall not be ashamed of His coming


Matthew 11:11, 12
11Verily I say unto you, Among them that are born of women there hath not risen a greater than John the Baptist: notwithstanding he that is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he. 12And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force

• John the Baptist was great - But if we exercise our authority (boldness) we are regarded as greater than him
• When you operate in that area - Then you move from unrighteous to the righteous
• Right standing in Christ Jesus
• When regarded as righteous - Means you are a covenant person
• “Violent take it by force” is an aggressive authority
• Understanding who you are - Secures you in handling the pressures


Luke 10:17-20
17And the seventy returned again with joy, saying, Lord, even the devils are subject unto us through thy name.
18And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven. 19Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.
20Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written in heaven.

• Your name written in the book of life, should give you the boldness and confidence to speak

Matthew 11:1-5
• John was in prison (then head was cut off)
• Jesus then attacked (by witnessing to others)
• You have to be aggressive when attacks are coming, you attack back


Jude 23
23And others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh
• When you see other Christians compromising themselves - Go after them
• You have a responsibility not to kill the wounded
• You should go back and snatch them out of hell’s fire
• This act is an: Aggressive - Violent Boldness !
