Reading God’s Word: Matthew 24:1-35; Psalm 54

Memorizing God’s Word: Psalm 56:3 When I am afraid, I put my trust in you.

Meditating on God’s Word: Matthew 24:9 “Then you will be handed over to be persecuted and put to death, and you will be hated by all nations because of me.”

Praying God’s Word: “Lord, prepare our hearts for persecution, for if we are not being persecuted, then we have yet to proclaim Your Name. May we be prepared to be hated and persecuted, not because of our denomination, our political party, or our worldly titles, but because we stand firm to the end. May we not be content or comfortable in our faith, may we be bold and testify to who you are. Amen.”
