When we choose to live our lives according to God’s word there’s a good chance we will experience persecution. Just look at Noah, imagine the ridicule he endured while he constructed the Ark. Then take a look at Jesus He was mocked, rejected, beaten, and eventually killed. So believer, when you are taunted, teased and harassed when you make a stand for the name Jesus, don’t be discouraged. Understand that God is in control. Submit to Him. He will take care of the rest.
