There are time God deliver us from suffering and challenges that comes our way but there are other times He does not. Not because we are wrong but because suffering for righteousness is part of the Christian life equation. Job was a perfect man and eschew evil yet he suffered for his faith and confidence in God. Precious One. Jesus said,”Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness sake for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Our generation of Christians have been made to believe that suffering is out of a Christian life. This is not true. However, it pleases God any time we confidently stand for righteousness, suffer for it so that righteousness prevails. At the work place should not God and righteousness reign there? Are you afraid that you will lose friends, face and ease with your career progression so you are silent on speaking out the truth. Like Esau so are many Christians, who for a mosel of bread sold his birthright. Today, you can find many Christians doing the wrong things - living in fornication, adultery, equally yoked with unbelievers, accepted the person of the unrighteous. etc. Others are offended, murmuring and chiding for their suffering of righteousness, But how can the gospel go far without suffering or leaving our comfort zones to reach the unreached? How can others believe our report of the gospel is we cannot suffer for what we believe. It is the will of God that we pick our cross daily and come after Him. God bless you.
