For you
Persecution for your faith
If you are mocked or rejected because of Jesus, do not lose heart: He said it would happen, and He walks with you. Nothing can separate you from His love.
What the Bible says
Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness’ sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake. Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.
