Rejoice Extremely!
Matthew 5:12 – Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.
There is a reward for right doing and also there is a reward for right suffering. The hope of the reward should keep the Christian journey alive in us and should also cause a great joy that is beyond the comprehension of human in us – 2 Corinthian 4:17.
Beloved, don’t give in to persecution. Jesus was persecuted and He received a reward as well others. Yours and mine won’t be a different issue. It is established by our choice of Jesus and faith – 2 Timothy 3:12, 1 Thessalonian 3:3, Galatians 6:12, Lamentation 5:5, Acts 8:1; 11:19; 13:50.
Romans 8:35-39 encourage us the more and our response to persecution should be, “Persecution! You can separate me from Christ”. I pray that nothing will make us deny the faith. May God empower us all in Jesus name, Amen.
