Life is full of challenges, and as followers of Jesus, we are not immune to them. We will face difficulties, we will face hardships, and we will face persecution. (2 Timothy 3:12) But we are called to stand firm in our faith, even in the midst of these challenges. We are called to persevere, to endure, and to remain faithful to God. (Hebrews 12:1-3)
When we stand firm in our faith, we are not just doing something for ourselves; we are also doing something for others. We are showing them that our faith is real, that it is worth standing up for, and that it is worth fighting for. (1 Peter 3:15) We are also growing in our faith, we are developing our character, and we are becoming more like Jesus. (Romans 5:3-5)
