What Jesus Said - The Sermon on the Mount
The enemy is triggered when you side with the Lord; living in the ways of Jesus can put you at risk. In fact, he says to expect it, for nothing more than trying to love and forgive. Wanting to be a vessel of the Lord, to love as he did, provokes evil where you may not expect it.
Matthew 5:10-12 (TLB) 10 Happy are those who are persecuted because they are good, for the Kingdom of Heaven is theirs. 11 “When you are reviled and persecuted and lied about because you are my followers—wonderful! 12 Be happy about it! Be very glad! for a tremendous reward awaits you up in heaven. And remember, the ancient prophets were persecuted too.
