What does the bible say about Christian boldness?
The bible has so much to say about Christian boldness. The Word of God showed us that boldness and courage are still important requirements for Christians to do exploits on this earth.
God gave very viral promises to Joshua in the first chapter of the book of Joshua. However, despite these promises from the mouth of God, Joshua was still required to demonstrate boldness and courage to receive those promises.

What is Christian boldness?: 2 levels of Christian boldness
There are two levels of Christian boldness you must know from this story of Joshua. God had to make him understand two levels of courage and boldness he had to put in place to fulfil his mission on the earth. Let us look them below:
First level of Christian boldness and courage
Read it below:
NKJV Bible. Joshua 1:6-7
[6]Be strong and of good courage, for to this people you shall divide as an inheritance the land which I swore to their fathers to give them.
Joshua must be strong to overcome physical obstacles to actually divide the lands or territories to the people.
Second level of Christian boldness and courage
Read it below:
[7]Only be strong and very courageous, that you may observe to do according to all the law which Moses My servant commanded you; do not turn from it to the right hand or to the left, that you may prosper wherever you go.
Joshua must be strong and bold to overcome spiritual obstacles that would prevent him from obeying the commandments of God.

Obeying God’s commandments need boldness
It’s easier for us to relate with the first level of boldness but it’s interesting to know that you must also demonstrate boldness to overcome obstacles that would not want you to obey God’s commandments.
Yes, you have to be courageous to obey His instructions from time to time to take delivery of God’s promises to you. It’s natural that the devil would not want you to do that. It’s his job and you can’t stop him from doing his job.
But there are already settled provisions in Christ Jesus that you can always tap into to overcome any challenge from the devil and his cohorts.
