We are concluding our collection of talks on Hidden Blessings. We’ve talked about the hidden blessing of Grief, Self-Awareness, and Oneness. This week, our focus will cover a blessing that many of us tend to shy away from and don’t particularly like experiencing - - - the Blessing of Persecution.

The Blessing of Persecution

Persecution: is the practice of oppressing, or harshly mistreating someone for doing what is good and right.

Persecution is the Christian’s stamp of separation.

John 15:18-19

When you apply what God is speaking to you, He will directly deal with what is trying to take up unnecessary space in your heart.

Persecution the Precursor to Promotion

Daniel 6:3-5

It wasn’t until Daniel started rising higher and gaining more notoriety and
leading on larger platforms that the other officers began to get jealous.
• Modern term for this, culture calls these individuals haters!!

Hater (urban dictionary): A person that simply cannot be happy for
another person's success. So rather than be happy they make a point of
exposing a flaw in that person.

Understanding Jealousy in Your Haters

1 Peter 4:14

And Most of the persecution or “hateration” that you receive is in direct correlation to the anointing or God’s power and grace working through your life!

Daniel 6:10, Daniel 6:15

The minute you become willing to be rejected by men to be accepted by God, that’s when
the freedom and fullness of God will begin to work through and overtake you!

Persecution will cause you to have to depend and Rely on the Power of God

2 Corinthians 12:10

Call-to-Action: WEEKLY DIGITAL FAST

"I am asking for every head of household to establish a Weekly Digital Fast. One hour a week, I am asking there are no electronics (TVs, Computer, Laptops, Tablets, or Screens). Use that time to draw closer to God and each other. Read the Bible, books, complete crossword puzzles, play board games but absolutely no electronics one hour a week." - Pastor Vince Thomas, Jr.

Question for E-Groups (www.theoutletcommunity.com/egroups)

How Are You? Really. (disclaimer: no one-word answers and cannot mention another person in relation to how you are feeling).

When you get knocked down, who do you give permission to ask the tough questions in your life?

How specifically could I be praying for you?

*Discuss these questions with family and friends this week.
