12 Dec bless those who persecute you
When Yusef accepted Christ several years ago, his family, peers, and elders in his village mocked him, beat him, denied him food, and rejected him. Praise God that “Yusef” persisted in sharing his faith despite the traumatic persecution he had endured.
Two elders from Yusef’s village who had previously persecuted him have been participating in weekly church meetings and fervently seeking truth. Recently, Yusef baptized these men who stated that they were astounded by the unconditional brotherly love that Yusef had shown them.
Praise God for Yusef and these new believers. Pray that Christian Nigeriens would imitate Yusef and bless those who persecute them.
Romans 12:14, “Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse them.”
Quand Youssef a accepté le Christ il y a plusieurs années, sa famille, ses camarades et les anciens de son village se sont moqués de lui, l’ont battu, l’ont privé de nourriture et l’ont rejeté. Louons Dieu de ce que « Youssef » a continué à partager sa foi malgré la persécution traumatisante qu’il avait subie.
Deux anciens du village de Youssef, qui l’avaient auparavant persécuté, participent aux réunions hebdomadaires de l’église et recherchent ardemment la vérité. Récemment, Youssef a baptisé ces hommes qui ont déclaré qu’ils étaient stupéfaits par l’amour fraternel inconditionnel que Youssef leur avait témoigné. Louez Dieu pour Youssef et ces nouveaux croyants.
Priez pour que les Chrétiens Nigériens imitent Youssef et bénissent ceux qui les persécutent.
Romains 12 :14 ‘’Bénissez ceux qui vous persécutent et ne maudissez pas’’.
