Dear Child, let MERCY be your aim in times of trials and persecution. Let your persecutors see that you are strong in Me, that you KNOW the ONE you are standing with from personal experience. Let them see the evidence of your God is so strong in your daily life that NO ONE could deny it.
Have MERCY on their blindness and do anything you can to enlighten their vision of Me. I will give you a voice and the Holy Spirit will give you the wisdom to proclaim the TRUTH about ME. Your gentle steadfast JOY in Me will touch hardened heart’s. Your FORGIVENESS will permeate their souls. Your LOVE for those hurting you will sting their heart’s and cause them to want what you have—-a relationship with Me.
Be at PEACE, dear Children. If I call you to this, I will be sufficient to carry you through under My mantle of Grace. Even in the darkness of oppression, My Children can experience My Joy and Peace because your God and Father is good and has promised. This TRUTH should encourage you as you face everyday trials as well.
Have MERCY on their blindness and do anything you can to enlighten their vision of Me.
