Bold Faith - All Our Daily Bread Daily Devotionals for 2026

Bible in a Year: Ezekiel 30-32, 1 Peter 4

Salvation is found in no one else.
Acts 4:12

Today's Scripture & Insight:

After Prem Pradhan's (1924-1998) plane was shot down during World War II, he was wounded while parachuting to safety. As a result, he walked with a limp for the rest of his life. He once noted, "I have a lame leg. Isn't it strange of God that He called [me] to preach the gospel in the Himalaya Mountains?" And preach in Nepal he did—but not without opposition that included imprisonment in "dungeons of death" where prisoners faced extreme conditions. In a span of fifteen years, Prem spent ten years in fourteen different prisons. His bold witness, however, bore the fruit of changed lives for Christ that included guards and prisoners who took the message of Jesus to their own people.

The apostle Peter faced opposition due to his faith in Jesus and for being used by God to heal a "man who was lame" (Acts 4:9). But he used the opportunity to boldly speak for Christ (vv. 8-13).

Today, like Peter, we too may face opposition (v. 3), yet we have family members, co-workers, fellow students, and others we know who desperately need to hear about the One in whom "salvation is found" (v. 12), who died as payment for our sins and was raised from the dead as proof of His power to forgive (v. 10). May they hear as we prayerfully and boldly proclaim this good news of salvation found in Jesus.

Reflect & Pray
How will you boldly share Jesus today? What keeps you from telling others about Him? How can you be better prepared to do so?

Father, thank You for what You've done for me. Help me, in Jesus' name, to boldly share my faith with others.
