Is it worth living for Christ and facing persecution?

Is it worth living for Christ and facing persecution? Is it worth dying for Christ? Many people around the world are being persecuted for their walk with Christ. Paul says in Philippians 1:21 “For me, to live is Christ and to die is gain”. He said those profound words because he was persecuted for righteousness.

You may be facing persecution because of your stance or your love for Christ. But always remember the following words of our Lord, mentioned in Bible. Matthew 5:10-12 “How blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness’ sake, because the kingdom from heaven belongs to them!”

Stand firm and stay strong in Him alone. Know that your redeemer Jesus Christ is your reward. There is nothing better than surrendering life to Christ and lose everything for Him because eventually what matters is the eternal life that can only be provided by Jesus Christ. Our sincerity and faithfulness with Him will enable us to become part of that never ending life where we shall be forever with our Creator and have an endless joy. Amen.
