“But rejoice, inasmuch as ye are partakers of Christ's sufferings; that, when his glory shall be revealed, ye may be glad also with exceeding joy. If ye be reproached for the name of Christ, happy are ye; for the spirit of glory and of God resteth upon you: on their part he is evil spoken of, but on your part he is glorified.”
1 Peter 4:13-14 KJV
Peter witnessed the death and resurrection of the Lord Jesus so he was convinced to say that he continued to rejoice, for those who believe in Christ, have shared in the sufferings of the Anointed One so that they can share in the revelation of His glory and celebrate with even greater gladness! Even today, if we are insulted because of the Name of Christ, we are greatly blessed, because the Spirit of glory and power, who is the Spirit of God, rests upon us. Let’s believe in the power of the mighty Holy Spirit as He leads us through suffering into righteousness, peace and joy, into the glory being revealed in and through us. That’s the power God has given us as children of the Most High. Hallelujah!
