In Egypt the Israelites became stronger the more they were oppressed. The early Christians multiplied and expanded under persecution also. Relying on God, regardless of circumstances, is an internal decision. You and God are stronger than any conditions of this temporal world.
Exodus 1:11-14 (CJB) 11 So they put slavemasters over them to oppress them with forced labor, and they built for Pharaoh the storage cities of Pitom and Ra‘amses. 12 But the more the Egyptians oppressed them, the more they multiplied and expanded, until the Egyptians came to dread the people of Isra’el 13 and worked them relentlessly, 14 making their lives bitter with hard labor — digging clay, making bricks, all kinds of field work; and in all this toil they were shown no mercy.
