# If the world hates you

Remember this.

If the world hates you, they hated Jesus first.

There is a spirit of fear that keeps Christians mouth shut.

Resurrect.

Speak up.

Speak life into this world.

Speak truth.

The devil will try to control you and make you stay quiet:

"Why do you always have to say something."

"Why are you always judging."

"Why don't you just shut up."

That controlling spirit wants you to stay quiet. It fears the Truth (Jesus).

It hates the Light (Jesus).

Jesus did not die a criminals death on the Cross in vain.

So you could put your head down, stay quiet, and fear man. Choose your battles wisely, don't give what is holy to the dogs. (Mat 7:6)

TL;DR

Jesus challenges you to speak truth today, even though it costs you

everything.The world didn't hate you first, it hated Jesus.

Jesus:

“If the world hates you, remember that it hated me first." NLT

"If the world hates you, you know that it hated Me before it hated you."

John 15:18
