Leadership in Context

Dealing with Opposition, pt1

Keith Tucci Season 6 Episode 370

The Kingdom of God is upside down to the world, and the world is upside down to the Kingdom of God.

The only way we can endure persecution, insults, false accusations, and people speaking all kinds of evil against us is by understanding that one day we will stand before the Lord. What we take on the chin—figuratively and sometimes literally—will result in a great reward. That is the ultimate test of faith.

When the Kingdom is in you, your mindset shifts from temporary to eternal. This will pass away; this is not going to stand forever. But when you respond in a way that is pleasing to the Lord, you bring honor to Him—and He, not anyone else, will reward you for that honor.
