Supernatural Truth in Christ about Persecution

Supernatural Truth about Persecution

What’s the supernatural truth about persecution against Christians? The supernatural truth is there are only two camps.

Those who belong to the world, and those who belong to the Kingdom of God’s dear Son. That’s the extent of it.

Jesus has us use his example of dealing with things through love mercy and grace, otherwise the fruits of the Spirit.  Everything else may be considered Satan and all of his ways, that he tries to encourage us to partake in, one way or the other. This of course includes persecution.

First off I’d like to point out that persecution is going to come no matter what you do so long as you are living after Christ. If they persecuted our Lord and the Apostles, you’d be in good company. It comes with the territory.

Existing as a child of God in a fallen world among a fallen race in need of redemption is a sure way to be persecuted at several different degrees. Jesus had a thing or two to say about it in John chapter 15:

19 If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you. 20 Remember the word that I said unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord. If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you; if they have kept my saying, they will keep yours also. 21 But all these things will they do unto you for my name’s sake, because they know not him that sent me.

Supernatural_Truth_about_PersecutionLater in John chapter 16 he said:

33 These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.

Fear of persecution needs to be overcome as you rest on God’s strength for all things. In conducting a typical bible study, you’ll find that the phrase ‘fear not’ is said in one way or another everywhere throughout the bible.

So it’s probably best to fear not. God saying it once should be enough as it is.

Romans 8:31

What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?

That verse is truly awesome in every way. But how much faith do you show when some persecution comes, or sudden adversity strikes? Here’s a simple and telling way you can test what kind of things run through your heart.

The next time something happens to you personally that either upsets, infuriates, scares, or emotionally pushes you up against the wall, pay attention to what comes out of your mouth and take a note of it. What type of thing comes out of your mouth? Out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks:

Matthew 12:34

O generation of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh.

Luke 6:45

A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh.

The test I was talking about (paying attention to what comes flying out of your mouth when something bad happens) will let you know where an iniquity may be lingering, and will let you self examine your heart’s condition. The remedy? Get in the Word of God! Study it word for word if you have to. Get it into your being prayerfully and in the Spirit of the living God.

Hebrews 4:12

For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

Romans 10:17

So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.

Back to the Topic of PersecutionTruth about Persecution

I went through the matter of the heart because when persecution comes in whatever form, it’s typically not at a time of convenience. When it does come, what will be in your heart?

Your spiritual conditioning will dictate how you will handle things. Will you struggle for self justification or self justice?

Or will you have the presence of mind through the washing of the Word to step aside and allow the Holy Spirit to bring to you anything you should say, or to allow him to give you a peace that surpasses all understanding?

John 16:13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.

John 14:27 Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.

Jesus knows a thing or two concerning persecution (to say the least). What did he do as he was facing death on the cross?

Did he scream and cry for his Father to come and help, remove him from the situation? No, he didn’t ask anything for himself even then but instead asked for God to forgive his persecutors.

There’s allot to say about this, but I brush on it in a post called Why do People get Offended?

Luke 23:34

Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do. And they parted his raiment, and cast lots.

That’s our Lord talking. Shouldn’t we learn to behave the same way when faced with persecutions that are laughable in the face of what Jesus went through? That’s why spiritually we need to be ready.

2 Timothy 4:2

Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all long suffering and doctrine.

Supernatural Truth in Christ about PersecutionThere it is. The supernatural truth about persecution is something one must be ready for in order to be able to be instant in season and out of season.

    Hey, Brian!

    Found you on G+ this time! Great post!

    You hit the nail right on the head! If we live for Jesus Christ, we’re going to get it in the neck at some point! How we react shows the areas of our heart that need some work!

    It shows what we have been thinking, right or wrong! The Holy Spirit has a way of bringing us through trials to reveal the darkness that has been collecting in our hearts through our walk in this present evil world! We can then ask him to search our hearts and get the forgiveness we need!

    Thanks so much for these thoughts! they are a good reminder!

    Have a blessed day in the Lord!

      Amen Donnie, thank you for the comment! Yeah the Holy Spirit sure does have a way of rolling back the curtain to reveal the truth behind why we do the things we do, or why we are saying the things we are saying. Our deepest and innermost intention.He’s always putting the spotlight on, and it’s always for our own good!
      God bless you & thanks again!

    James 1:2-8New King James Version (NKJV)

    Profiting from Trials
    2 My brethren, count it all joy when you fall into various trials, 3 knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience. 4 But let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing. 5 If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him. 6 But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind. 7 For let not that man suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord; 8 he is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.

      Hi Sandra, thank you for that great piece of scripture. It’s a study all on it’s own. Much more going on there than what’s on it’s surface!
      Thanks again and God bless you!

    Great post Brian. As I was reading the Beatitude about being persecuted in Christ’s name came to mind. A steadfast devotion is key in preventing myself from defiling my faith. You hit the nail on the head by pointing out the measuring stick to what lies in our hearts. A life centered in Christ is guided by the Holy Spirit providing God’s wisdom in responding to the world.Thanks for helping me grow my faith.
