“but THAT IT SPREAD NO FURTHER among the people, let us straitly threaten them, that they speak henceforth to no man in this name” Acts 4:17 (emphasis mine)
Your progress is an offense to oppositions. Whenever you see or receive a threat from the enemy, it is time to act in boldness. Beyond every threat is the opportunity to get better results so if you give in to threat you miss greatly.
Peter and John healed a lame man and the enemy could not contest that it was a notable miracle. They could say nothing against it nor could they deny it. But they decided to threaten them so that they could prevent them from further good work. The disciples responded with boldness and decided to forge ahead in obedience to God.
Beloved, don’t surrender your good work to threat; persistence will always weary resistance, so go forward.
