Anna's Daily Devotional
by Anastasia Floyd Revelation 6: 9-11 When he ripped off the fifth seal, I saw the souls of those killed because they had held firm in their witness to the Word of God. They were gathered under the Altar, and cried out in loud prayers, "How long, Strong God, Holy and True? How long before you step in and avenge our murders?" Then each martyr was given a white robe and told to sit back and wait until the full number of martyrs was filled from among their servant companions and friends in the faith. SUMMARY: This scripture lets us know that some of us will have to face hard trials just like our sisters and brothers before us. The life of a Christian is not always a walk in the park, if you never have trials or tribulations, you need to check your salvation. In this modern world a true Christian will be persecuted, lied on, and sometimes even martyred. If we want to share in the blessings of the Lord we have to be willing to share in the sufferings of the Lord. PRAYER: Father in the name of Jesus please give me the strength to finish the race and fulfill the plan you have for my life. Help me to accept your will no matter what I have to go through. Amen.
