Matthew 5:3-16 

Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the Kingdom Of Heaven. Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted. Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth. Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after Righteousness: for they shall be filled. Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy. Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God. Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the Children Of God. Blessed are they which are persecuted for Righteousness' sake: for theirs is The Kingdom Of Heaven. Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for My sake. Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in Heaven: for so persecuted they the Prophets which were before you. Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? It is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men. Ye Are The Light Of The World. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid. Neither do men Light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth Light unto all that are in the house. Let Your Light So Shine before men, that they may see your good works, and Glorify your Father which is in Heaven.

2 Timothy 2:1-4 

Thou therefore, my son, be strong in the Grace that is in Christ Jesus. And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also. Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ. No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please Him Who Hath Chosen Him To Be A Soldier.

Ephesians 6:10-18

Finally, my brethren, Be Strong in The Lord, And In The Power Of His Might. Put On The Whole Armour Of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Wherefore take unto you The Whole Armour Of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with Truth, and having on the breastplate of Righteousness; And your feet shod with the preparation of the Gospel Of Peace; Above all, taking the shield of Faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet of Salvation, and The Sword Of The Spirit, Which Is The Word Of God: Praying always with all prayer and supplication in The Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all Saints;

We are going to face hard times in this world, but we are to face that hardness as good soldiers of Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ has chosen us to endure the persecution, He has also equipped us to endure. We are to Stand In The Power Of His Might and not our own. If The Lord Has Called You To Do His Work, Then know you are not working under your power, but His. ENDURE
