Psalm 118:6 “The LORD is on my side; I will not fear: what can man do unto me?”
Fearlessly Trusting!
Persecution which leads beyond bloodshed is far louder a cry than one “taking offense”.
Martyrs who give their all just as CHRIST did are worthy of much greater honor indeed.
But no one seeks to serve JUST for dying; Such want every ear to be turned to the LORD!
So when someone cries about words which rebuke them,
another correction in love must take place!
Why then preach HIS WORD with limitations; Why bend every message so none feel Sin’s pain?
I tell you the truth, Calvary’s Cross HE took for us.
So why does one cringe WHEN just language attacks?
Bear your cross, dear Believers, by preaching…demonstrating the absolute need for our SAVIOUR!
Turn the other cheek also, continuing onward…by entrusting our lives to the LORD!
As HIServant comparing the cost which others have paid, most of all, our risen CHRIST, and encouraging self and all to serve without fear,

Devotional: Psalm 37: 5-6 Commit your way to the LORD; trust in HIM, and HE will act.
6 HE will bring forth your righteousness as the light, and your justice as the noonday!”
Matthew 10:28 “And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul.
Rather fear HIM WHO can destroy both soul and body in hell.”
Death, especially a violent one, carries with it a debilitating fear.
By only for those whose eyes are much more focused on this life rather than the one to come.
So serve without limiting fears or constraining Worry about the day.
GOD has your teardrops stored and HE planned the very instant of your arrival into Heaven.
Therefore! Let us serve humbly and relentlessly given HIS guarantee!
Even if persecution is allowed to harm us, let us not shrink back…
…for our rewards will be great if we remain steadfast in HIS footprints.
Amen and amen.
