What You’ll Learn:
Christians continue to face persecution around the world for their faith in Christ. Whether beatings, imprisonment, or even death, many believers endure severe treatment for following our Lord. How can we help? Hebrews 13:3 offers a biblical example, saying, “Remember those who are in prison, as though in prison with them, and those who are mistreated, since you also are in the body.” We can empathize with those being persecuted, pray for them, and speak up for their needs. As Proverbs 31:8 teaches, “Open your mouth for the mute, for the rights of all who are destitute.” God has called us to stand for our persecuted brothers and sisters. Will you remember persecuted believers in your prayers today?
