TOPIC: Handling Persecution (Mountain Of Fire and Miracle Ministries, MFM Daily Devotional 12 October 2019)
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Isaiah 39-40; Colossians 4
FIRE SCRIPTURE: 2 Corinthians 11:22-33
MEMORY VERSE: “Ye blind guides, which strain at a gnat, and swallow a camel.” – Matthew 23:24
The MESSAGE:
Persecution started from Chapter 4 of the book of Genesis where Cain rose up and slew his own brother, Abel, because the Lord respected the offering of Abel. In verse 8, the Bible says, “And Cain talked with Abel his brother, and it came to pass when they were in the field, then, Cain rose up against Abel his brother and slew him.” What is persecution? Persecution is the act of harassing, oppressing or killing people because of their differences in the society. Christians are persecuted because of their belief in Jesus Christ as the Saviour does not conform to the godlessness of this sinful world.

The Bible records the persecution of God’s people in both Old and New Testament. For example, the Philistines and the Amalekites constantly attacked the Jews because the Jews rejected idolatry and worship the one true God. Daniel was thrown into the lion’s den because of his strong belief in God by regularly praying unto Him for the deliverance of Jews during their captivity in Babylon.
Jesus also warned his followers that they would be persecuted. “Wherefore, behold, I send unto you prophets, and wise men, and scribes: and some of them ye shall kill and crucify…” (Mathew 23:34). The Bible says we are in the world but not of the world. Therefore, if you call yourself a child of God and you have not been persecuted in one way or the other, your situation is questionable. Persecution is a must for every child of God. Jesus Christ said, “If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you” (John 15:20). In times of persecution, you are to remain steadfast. Remember what Apostle Paul said in Romans 8:35, “Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?”
Beloved, always remember the promise of our faithful Saviour and Lord, “I will never leave you; I will never forsake you.” Hold on to that promise in the face of persecution. You will prevail, in Jesus’ name.
