Read: 2 Corinthians 6:8-13
Believers could be victims of false and erroneous judgment. However, they won’t remain casualties of this mudslinging, for the Lord will stand by them. He honors them for their goodness. Their joy in God stems from knowing Him and His works. They will be sources of blessings for their message and good examples. Their prosperity lies in the spiritual blessings the Lord grants them. They are pillars of truth, as they enlighten those who are slighted for their rebuke or correction. In the end, faithful believers stand out victorious and firm before the Lord.
Food for thoughts
God’s people can suffer misjudgment from persecutors and other oppositionists, but they should not lose heart because the Lord will maintain their honor and confirm their integrity.
“For the Lord will vindicate his people and have compassion on his servants.”(Psalm 135:14)
“But the Lord is faithful, and he will strengthen you and protect you from the evil one. ” (2 Thessalonians 3:3)
Prayer
Our Lord and God, we are grateful for the assurance that You are on our side when we are persecuted for our faith in You. We pray for courage and power, to tackle difficulties in the ministry. Grant us wisdom to be reliable bearers of Your truth. By Your mercy let us maintain the integrity of the Gospel through our lives and witness. Amen.
