TOPIC: IN TIMES LIKE THESE, WHAT WILL YOU DO?
BASIC SCRIPTURE: JOB 14:1 -14
Some years back during one of the religious crisis in the Northern part of Nigeria, the persecution became so tense for the Christians that some in an attempt to save their lives and that of their family members, fled to the southern part of the country. Some deliberately stopped going for services in their churches and resolved to have personal fellowship with God, some removed the stickers on their cars and doorpost(s), some names were changed from Mary to “Miriam”, Moses to “Musa”, Isaiah to “Ishaku” so as to secure their jobs, businesses or contracts and probably their lives.

In the heat of the crisis, three brothers were held hostage by the Muslim fanatics and they were asked to drop their Bibles, march on them and also to break a “Cross” to signify their rejection of Christ or face the death penalty. Dearly beloved, in times like that, what will you do? Who would you claim to be? The agony was so much that two of the three Christian brothers bowed to them by destroying the Cross and marched on their Bibles, but the third one stood for God declaring like Paul, “For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.”
He refused to succumb to their threats. The persecutors looked at the three of them and they murdered the two brothers that denied their faith in Christ and spared the brother that stood his ground. What a wonderful God who is able to defend His children even at odd times! Your own persecutor may not be a physical man, but may be the challenge/ problem you have been battling with right from the beginning of this year. Friends/neighbours have probably suggested to you to renounce your faith and seek help outside Christ, most times quoting that, “God is not against your helping yourself.”
