A prayer for people facing mockery or persecution for their faith. The speaker asks God for courage, boldness, and grace to resist defending themselves, emphasizing the privilege of suffering with Christ.
When God sets you apart, others will mock you, misunderstand you, and criticize you. So let me pray over you now that God would keep you focused and pure, even in the face of mockery and persecution. So Lord, I lift that one to you now who is in this season experiencing criticism, being misunderstood, being mocked, being persecuted. And precious Holy Spirit, I pray that you would reveal to them the great privilege of persecution. We thank you, Lord, that we can know you in the fellowship of your sufferings. And so I pray for that one now. Give them boldness and courage, Lord. Cause them to be even more unapologetic for who they are in you. Keep them focused on the mission ahead. Cause them to resist the temptation to defend themselves. We pray it be done. Give them grace, Lord, for this season. Amen. In Jesus' mighty name we pray, and I want you to type it in the comments section if you believe it. Type a big amen.
