the martyrs
Praying about opposition and hatred because we follow Jesus, God reminded me of some promises for those enduring and staying faithful till the very end - check that out!
Everyone who is victorious
- will eat from the TREE OF LIFE in the paradise of God.
- will not be hurt by the SECOND DEATH.
- will eat of the MANNA that has been hidden away in heaven and will be given a white stone, and on the stone will be engraved a NEW NAME that no one knows except the one who receives it.
- will be given AUTHORITY OVER ALL THE NATIONS, ruling the nations with an iron rod and smashing them like clay pots. They will have the same authority Jesus received from the Father, and they will also be given the MORNING STAR!
- will be CLOTHED IN WHITE. Their names will never be erased from the Book of Life, but Jesus will announce them before his Father and his angels that they are his.
- will become a PILLAR IN THE TEMPLE OF GOD, and they will never have to leave it. Jesus will write God's name on them, and they will be citizens in the city of God--the new Jerusalem that comes down from heaven from God. And they will have Jesus' new name inscribed upon them.
- will SIT WITH JESUS ON HIS THRONE,

(Revelations 2 and 3)
God says: All who are victorious will inherit all this, and I will be his God and he will be my son.(Revelations 21:7)
Paul says: If we died with him, we will also live with him; if we endure, we will also reign with him.
(2 Timothy 2:11-12)
Makes hungry for more, ey?
