Saved and Bold: Why You Shouldn’t Hide Your Faith
Saved and Bold: Why You Shouldn’t Hide Your Faith
By David Iwuji
“For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation…” — Romans 1:16 (KJV)
There’s pressure today to hide your faith. To be silent when you should speak. To blend in when you were born to stand out. But before you turn twenty, you must understand: your faith isn’t a secret to be kept — it’s a fire to be seen.
🔥 The World Is Loud. You Must Be Louder — With Love
Culture is unashamed to promote sin. Music, movies, influencers — they preach boldly every day. If they’re not ashamed of sin, why should you be ashamed of truth?
“Let your light so shine before men…” — Matthew 5:16 (KJV)
You were saved to shine, not to hide.
💡 Boldness Is Not Being Loud — It’s Being Loyal
You don’t need a microphone to be bold. You need consistency in living like Christ and courage to speak when others won’t.
Ways to Be Bold in Your Faith:
- 🔹 Pray publicly without fear
 - 🔹 Share your testimony with friends
 - 🔹 Speak truth with love, even when it’s unpopular
 - 🔹 Wear your faith like a banner, not a burden
 - 🔹 Refuse to compromise your purity, passion, or convictions
 
⚠️ What Hiding Your Faith Really Means
Hiding your faith is more than silence. It’s compromise. It’s fear. It’s denying the fire in you.
“Whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father…” — Matthew 10:33 (KJV)
Don’t trade acceptance from man for approval from God. Don’t shrink when you were made to roar.
🛡️ Being Bold May Cost You
Yes, some may mock you. Yes, you might lose friends. Yes, standing out is uncomfortable. But eternity is too important to be silent.
“Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.” — 2 Timothy 3:12 (KJV)
🌱 Final Words: You’re Not Alone
You’re not the only young person living for Jesus. You’re part of a generation rising with purity, passion, and purpose.
Let your boldness awaken others. Let your stand give others strength. Let your fire set your school, family, and generation ablaze.
Be saved — and be bold.
