2 Timothy 1:7 – 7 For God did not give us a spirit of timidity, but a spirit of power, of love and of self-discipline.
When we are timid we have a tendency to keep everything to ourselves. Things don’t come out with sincerity or conviction.
We don’t have to come off as out of control, that’s not the power. The power comes from the Spirit of God. God’s loving Spirit is powerful when you allow it to work through you. God has self control and discipline and it needs to reflect in us as we communicate Him to others.
If you know a lot of facts about something you’re going to be more comfortable with your sharing or delivering of the message. You won’t be intimidated by hard questions or be embarrassed by someone who is outspoken and doesn’t understand. That is why we have to know our Lord’s message, which is His Word.
