03/09 Matthew 5:11-12
“God blesses you when you are mocked and persecuted and lied about because you are my followers. 12 Be happy about it! Be very glad! For a great reward awaits you in heaven. And remember, the ancient prophets were persecuted, too.
BLESSED
When you affirm that Christ is the only way to the Father you will be persecuted. The exclusiveness of this claim will cause the world to abuse you. This is our message (Acts 4:12) “There is no other name under heaven given among me, whereby we must be saved.”
MARCH 9 – BLESSED
