ANGLICAN COMMUNION DEVOTIONAL OUTLINE FOR 13TH MARCH 2025.
Persecution for the believer is part of the Christian race. It involves hardship or suffering on account of professing or living the Christian life. But this type of suffering is not because of zeal without knowledge, or careless and sinful lifestyles. Christians should therefore not feel embarrassed or hurt when they suffer persecution. Persecution is painful, but the comfort is that the bible says, “Such are blessed” (vv.11-12). Jesus Christ our Lord and the godly men of old; like Jeremiah, Stephen, John, Paul, etc., experienced different kinds of persecution. Some, like Stephen, even lost their lives, which was not in vain, because he made heaven (Acts 7:54-60).
Persecution is also an experience we cannot avoid, Jesus said, “If they persecuted me, they will persecute you”(John 15:20). Brethren, if persecution is not an elective course for believers, then must rejoice and be exceedingly glad (Matt: 5:12); endure persecution (1Cor. 4:12); bless those who persecute you (Rom. 12:14), pray always (1Thess. 5:17), always attend Christian fellowships (Heb. 10:25), etc.
Persecution though painful, cannot dislodge us from the love of God in Christ Jesus, if we have the right attitude and lifestyle. Again, the Holy Spirit is always available to help and comfort us in all situations. Let us therefore look unto Jesus for victory and eternal reward.
PRAYER: Father, please help me to overcome every persecution that may come my way. Amen!
