Globally 100 million Christians face religious persecution. Annually, an estimated 7,000 Christians are killed for their faith! Rise up Church! Rise up and stop this Genocide!
Proverbs 31:8 (NIV) says, Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves, for the rights of all who are destitute.
While martyrs bleed beneath a tyrant’s hand,
The faithful fall, their cries ascend to God,
In pews of gold, the prosperous demand
A life of ease, untouched by sacred rod.
Their prayers chase wealth, a car, a fleeting crown,
While saints are burned, their witness carved in flame,
The cross, a mockery, is cast down—
A gospel traded for a hollow name.
Yet fire shall test what each has built in time,
The wood, the hay, the stubble—all shall burn,
Gold forged in pain alone shall prove sublime,
For Christ’s own heart the suffering discern.
Awake, O soul, and weep for those who die—
The faithful shine when persecution’s nigh.
