A BRAVE HEART AS IT RELATED TO OUR FAITH IN GOD
When one talk of a brave heart, one think of a heart to overcome or endure pain or fear. Generally a brave heart simply means one with a heart of valour, one with a courageous heart, one who is ready to do things of which are dangerous.
In the scripture many individuals exhibit or rather show a brave heart. Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego exhibit a brave heart in the book of Daniel. They were thrown into fiery furnace by Nebuchadnezzar because they refuse to bow down to the king's image, They showed great magnitude of braveness dues to the fact that they were faithful to God. faithfulness is a neccessity to all the faithful in that one cannot be of a brave heart if one does not have faith in something if not something it rather be of oneself. God really shows his love for his faithful in the story of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. He sent his angel to proctect them against the consuming flames of the furnace and showed the less faithful that he is the lord, truth and the light.
As earlier said the brave heart is a neccessity for every faithful because it strengthen one faith in God and also bring about stronger interaction between the faithfuls and God.
The brave heart was also narrated in the story of Abraham, especially when God told him to sacrifice his only son Isaac, he never underestimated God's plan even if he and his wife sarah was old and had the child in their old age. He went at once to sacrifice his son for God because he believed in God and have Faith in God, As he was about to sacrifice him God sent an angel to stop him and gave him gave him a ram to used instead of his son.
MORAL LESSON
In the story of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego they strongly believe in God even if any trails comes their way, this story teaches us to believed in God and have faith in him even on high magnitude of trials up to the point of death, his love always shelter and protect us.
The story of Abraham the highest degree of man's faithfulness to God, the sacrifice of his son was not the only test of his faith. After Abraham was obeyed God, God promised him that his descended would be as stars of the sky, sand on the sea shore, his decendant will match to the enermies gate... many more. God always knows what is best for us, he knows what we want and he wants us to believe in him and be faithful to him.
It's good to be brave. A brave servant of God will not shy away from responsibilities. Being brave is the opposite of having fear. When we are brave we will try to be faithful to God.

I am a testimony, God ask me to drop a course I was doing in my 300L and fufill purpose, everyone I told said I was stupid that it wasnt God who spoke to me.when I asked God, he confirmed his word using using Abraham as an example, I dropped out and picked. Jamb form again and to the glory of God, he has kept me this 1yr. my Dad sent me only 1500 for feeding and 10k for jamb. Obeying and serving God in faith pays.
Faith to the world is stupidity. Imagine Abraham, leaving everything willed to him by his father because God said he should move out to an UNKNOWN PLACE. He embarked on this journey in Gen 11 and in Gen 12 ,he saw results. What is that thing God has asked you to do that seems impossible,pray a prayer of faith asking for obedience to do it. God is not a user of men but a rewarder... "For without faith,it's impossible to please God ". God bless his church.
Absolutely true.
There is bravery in having faith.
That complete trust just make things happen.
Believe in God and have faith in Him even on high magnitude of trials up to the point of death, his love always shelter and protect us.
A Brave heart conquers fear.
Asvthey say being brave is not the absent of fear but having the courage to continuevinspite of tye dangers ahead,when we believe that their is no such thing as impossible we will then progress forward and when ever sw have doubts their is always God to strenghten us in difderent ways we never expected.
Faith is the belief that we can do all things through Christ that strengthens us!
Faith is a test from God, and if you can't have it, that shows you are not of God., great post my friend.
When you begin to doubt, read these Bible verses about believing and pray that God will renew your heart and mind toward who He says He is and who He says YOU are!
God is an all knowing God, definitely he'll know what is best for us!
Lord Jesus is always here to guide us
I think this is something we should all know.
