It is truly amazing and wonderful to know how much our Lord Jesus Christ loves us! In the beatitudes He delivers to
the people and to us, are constantly reminded How great our God is, how much He loves us, and what He provides to us, all day, every day, all of the time, and in every possible situation.
Today, we examine more of the beatitudes that comfort and reassure us that even when our enemies, seen and unseen, persecute us and slander us for His sake. Jesus tells us that we are
blessed by God even in those situations and we are to rejoice and be exceedingly happy and joyful! Why would be rejoice in our Lord instead of trying to protect ourselves or fight against
those who attack us? Jesus tells us even in those situations, we are blessed by a loving God and a powerful God Who sees all, knows all, and will deliver us from all of these things, situations,
and evil people. It is God’s law that His people who depend on Him, love Him, and obey Him in righteousness will be blessed. We are so blessed that our enemies are truly envious of us
and our relationship with our loving God! |
