What does God do when His people face persecution?In this message, How God Responds When We Are Persecuted, we walk through Jesus’ words in Matthew 5:10–12 and discover a powerful truth that often goes unspoken: persecution is not an accident in the Christian life. It is expected, it is purposeful, and it is never wasted. Jesus teaches that following Him will bring opposition, but He also promises blessing, growth, and eternal reward for those who remain faithful. This sermon explores how God uses persecution to strengthen our faith, deepen our trust, and remind us that this world is not our final home.
