We Must Obey God – Stories of Perseverance #2

How can we remain obedient even in adversity? How can we experience joy when we’re also experiencing setbacks or even suffering? The answer to these questions can be found in our Scripture passage today from Acts 5:17-42. This passage first teaches us about finding joy in suffering for Jesus, as we’re sharing the gospel, but I also think it teaches us about finding perseverance in whatever we’re suffering as we’re simply living for Christ. So, it gives us encouragement for what we might call “persecution” but also for what we call “hardship.” Jesus can enable us to have obedience and give us perseverance in any type of adversity, and especially when we experience adversity for Him.
