God empowers His people to witness through His Spirit, giving them boldness to proclaim the Gospel confidently.
In the biblical account, God's empowerment is evident in how He equips His people to carry out His mission. As seen in Exodus 3:18, God does not merely call His servants but also promises to instill boldness in them to declare His message. The Holy Spirit plays a crucial role in this empowerment, enabling believers to declare the truth of the Gospel with confidence, even in the face of opposition (Acts 4:29-31). This boldness is not self-generated but is a result of reliance on God's strength and the assurance that He will work through them to bring His elect to faith. Hence, Christians can witness effectively as they trust in God's promise to back their declarations by His power.
