Are You Ready To Be Hated?
“If the world hates you, you know that it has hated Me before it hated you. If you were of the world, the world would love its own; but because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, because of this the world hates you” (John 15:18-19).
I recently read an article about a presidential candidate. The demand that this person is said to have made is that religion must be changed. Religion must be changed to accept abortion, same sex marriage, and the right to die. This isn’t just one candidate’s view. Many of the candidates support this because they desire to appease a highly vocal minority.
So when you choose God over the world, be prepared to be hated!
Allmighty, holy, righteous God, strengthen my heart to stand firm for You. I desire to uphold Your truth. Help my faith and trust not to waver, but to increase. In my Lord Jesus’ name. Amen.
