Opportunity for your testimony.

Luke 21:12-15, “But before all these things, they will lay their hands on you and will persecute you, delivering you to the synagogues and prisons, bringing you before kings and governors for My name’s sake. It will lead to an opportunity for your testimony. So make up your minds not to prepare beforehand to defend yourselves; for I will give you utterance and wisdom which none of your opponents will be able to resist or refute.”

The early believers were not promised temporary prosperity, but an opportunity to give their testimony about Jesus. Many of the early believers went to a martyr’s death as they held fast to their testimony in this promise. Even though we might not face this kind of persecution, are we ready to give our testimony when we have opportunity?

I thank You for giving me opportunities and also the right words that Your wisdom may be shown!
