Standing For God



People who mock you for Christ sake are like Sadducees and Pharisees of the Sanhedrin who questioned , mocked and sent the apostles to jail.All that the Pharisees had in mind was "Fear of Losing Self pride" "Fear of Accepting Jesus" the "Guiltiness of their own laws" & "Fear of being proved wrong";
They know it is and it was wrong but they want to be free from God's way.They enjoyed their current life as they thought they obtained victory over questioning , mocking and stoning the aposltes and followers of Christ to death; Also threatening them not to teach in Jesus Name!!

But be strong and bold in Holy Spirit to confront any kind of situations as our apostles faced!!Situations may seems difficult for you, but remember your reward is great.Never give in for their foolish talks thereby loosing your blessing and peace God has gifted you with!!For they that know the truth and still fail to believe,the blessing of life is always material and of physical living, but for a true and strong believer Blessing is something beyond that, which is a life of True Faith , Love and Obedience towards Christ, for an Eternal Price!!


So never give in for things or people who want you to stop nearing Christ and his Love, for even the apostles were threatened but they never gave up one thing "Standing For God"


Then the high priest and all his associates, who were members of the party of the Sadducees, were filled with jealousy. They arrested the apostles and put them in the public jail.
The apostles were brought in and made to appear before the Sanhedrin to be questioned by the high priest. “We gave you strict orders not to teach in this name,” he said. “Yet you have filled Jerusalem with your teaching and are determined to make us guilty of this man’s blood.”

Peter and the other apostles replied: “We must obey God rather than human beings! The God of our ancestors raised Jesus from the dead—whom you killed by hanging him on a cross.God exalted him to his own right hand as Prince and Savior that he might bring Israel to repentance and forgive their sins. We are witnesses of these things, and so is the Holy Spirit, whom God has given to those who obey him.”
Acts 5:17-18,27-32
