Blessed are you when they revile and persecute you, and say all kinds of evil against you falsely for My sake.  Rejoice and be exceedingly glad, for great is your reward in heaven, for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you.

Matthew 5:11-23 (KJV)

Blessed are you when they revile and persecute you,

and say all kinds of evil against you falsely for My sake. 

 Rejoice and be exceedingly glad, for great is your

reward in heaven, for so they persecuted the prophets

who were before you. Oh, the most beautiful poetry

is found in scripture. May all who are being persecuted

find solace in the beauty, poetry, majesty, hope, comfort

and, healing power found in the inerrant Holy Scriptures!

May we all learn to rejoice and be exceeding glad when

the storms of persecution come upon us! Rejoice for

great, great, great, is our reward in Heaven. Rejoice!
