Curry thanks for joining me tonight for our meditation titled their reward is

heaven if you've ever wondered how you would endure persecution for the sake of

Christ tonight's sleep story will be of great encouragement to you as we hear from

Jesus in Matthew chapter 5 verse 10 will be comforted to know that blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness,

for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

Tonight, you'll hear words from the Bible that paint glorious pictures of heaven and the

peace that awaits God's people.

You'll be guided by the scriptures to find strength in these dark times

and to withstand whatever persecution may come.

Most of all, you'll be given the encouragement to persevere knowing God is with you every single

moment my friend my hope is that this meditation will not only help you fall asleep

it will also comfort your heart and settle your mind please remember

that God is your very great reward he is your blessing and your peace now please

listen to the words of Jesus again.

Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom

of heaven.
