Esther 4:16...I also and my maidens will fast likewise; and so will I go in unto the king, which is not according to the law: and if I perish, I perish.

Many Christians are not psychologically prepare for believers' life of sacrifice. Christianity is not an easy escape route from challenges of life. However, a careful study of the word shows that we are here to live for God which implies facing persecutions.

2 Timothy 3:12 Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.

The question to you this day is, will you be willing to lay down your life for the purpose of the gospel? Can you lay down your life for your conviction? The truth, this world is not our home and the world does not like us because they do not know Him. This is what Jesus Christ said...

John 17:14 I have given them thy word; and the world hath hated them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. 15 I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil. 

You are not going to be taken out of the world, but you must understand that the world does not like you. Paul admonished Timothy to be strong because of challenges that comes with being born again.

2 Timothy 2:3 Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.

Most Christians have psychology of easy life believer, understand this truth, you will be hated by many simply because of Christ. However, your reward is great in Christ. Stand strong and keep your eye on the goal, you are a victor not a victim. They may not like you in that office, that neighborhood, but you have been given power to rule in the midst of your enemy.

Psalms 110:2 The Lord shall send the rod of Your strength out of Zion. Rule in the midst of Your enemies!
