And you shall be hated of all men for my name’s sake: but he that endures to the end shall be saved.

– Matthew 10:22

Thoughts on Today’s Verse…

This is the promise that the Lord Jesus said to us. When we suffer our family’s rejection, people’s slanders, and even more dangerous surroundings, we need more faith because what we do is to carry out the will of God, testify His work and spread His name. God’s words say, “I am full of hope for My brothers and sisters, and I believe that you are not disheartened or discouraged, and no matter what God does, you are like a pot of fire—you are never tepid and you can persist until the end, until God’s work is fully revealed….” “And may we all swear this oath in front of God: ‘To work unitedly! Devotion until the end! Never part, to always be together!’ May My brothers and sisters set this determination in front of God so that our hearts do not stray and our wills are unwavering!” God hopes that we can devote to Him to the very end at any bitter situations. No matter how great painful and torment we suffer, we should be full of confidence, and our hearts for Him shouldn’t change, and our will shouldn’t waver. We should bear a resounding testimony for Him.
