Stay Strong in Faith!

Good Morning, or whatever is the best greeting to you, in your part of the world!

It is another gorgeous Fall morning! Those who celebrated the Canadian Thanksgiving this past tid weekend, hope you all enjoyed extra tidbit Blessings!

Our friend recently forwarded on a wonderful tidbitz message by Gloria Copeland (See her empowering insights quoted below). Thanks to our friend, and to the Kenneth Copeland Ministries!

"Prepare for Persecution"

'Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution. - 2 Timothy 3:12

Did you catch that? He said all who live godly lives are going to suffer persecution. Not just the super-saints, not just the missionaries in hostile lands--but ALL.

If you're going to live for God, you're going to run into persecution somewhere along the line. The devil's going to make sure of it!

Now I'm not saying that to frighten you or to depress you. I'm saying it because I want you to be prepared.

When you're wise to the strategies of the devil, it's harder for him to use them successfully on you to confuse you and get you off track.

Second Corinthians 10:4 says, "For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds." So stay armed and ready for Satan's attack. Then, whenever and however it comes, it won't bring your life to a halt or even slow you down.

That's especially important right now because we're living in the last days. The devil's time is drawing short. He is desperate. He is going to do everything he can to stop the Church. But Jesus said the gates of hell would not prevail against His Church!

Remember the more we grow to be like Jesus and the more God's glory is revealed through our lives, the bigger threat we are to Satan's kingdom. Jesus said, "Rejoice and be glad at such a time, and exult and leap for joy, for behold, your reward is rich and great and strong and intense and abundant in heaven" (Luke 6:23, The Amplified Bible).

So, when persecution comes your way, and you know it will, rejoice and be glad. Take the Jesus cure and begin to leap and jump and praise God! There is no way persecution will hurt you if you do that. I've tried it and it works.

Also another bittid included, in the Kenneth Copeland Ministries, is an inspiring video that I appreciatively watched earlier this morning. Again, thank you to our friend.

Kenneth Copeland & Keith Butler: Faith for Life


Tidbit - As our friend says: "Stay strong and resist all that you are going through!"

Bittid - Fight the good fight. Endure with steadfast Faith, Hope, and Trust in Jesus Christ! The Holy Spirit, which is in you, when you invite Jesus genuinely into your heart, He will never leave you. He is there, as per His Promise, to guide and direct you through whatever unfolds each and every day.


I like this photo image of putting on the Whole Armor of God!

Tomorrow I will share another bittidz of encouragement that our good friend has sent us. May this also provide a bit of a joyful uplift to all those, who read this post!

Peace and God Bless.
