📖 Scripture Focus: Matthew 24:9–21

“Then you will be handed over to be persecuted and put to death, and you will be hated by all nations because of me…”

Matthew 24:9

In this sobering passage, Jesus warns His followers of coming trials, persecution, betrayal, deception, and a world where love grows cold. He doesn’t minimize the hardship. Instead, He prepares us for it.

Though the world may feel dark and heavy, Jesus calls us to stand firm and not lose heart. He sees the pain, understands the cost, and still promises that those who endure will be saved.

In times of pressure and discouragement, we can find strength in knowing that God is not surprised by our struggle and He walks with us through it. Even when faith is tested, His presence remains.

This passage encourages us to live with faith, endurance, and hope, knowing that God holds us in every hardship.
