Revelation 12:11 (KJV)  And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.

A prominent Christian leader in my country was confronted by terrorists and eventually beheaded. He was asked to deny his faith in Christ in a video clip that became public, but he refused and was killed because of his faith in Christ Jesus.

According to scripture, Persecution, and martyrdom will increase as the day approaches. Luke 21:16-17 (KJV)  And ye shall be betrayed both by parents, and brethren, and kinsfolks, and friends; and some of you shall they cause to be put to death. And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake.

Matthew 24:6-9 (KJV)  And ye shall hear of wars and rumors of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. All these are the beginning of sorrows. Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake.

Matthew 24:10-13 (KJV)  And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another. And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.

The only way to survive in the last days is to be ready to live, suffer, and even die for Jesus just in case it gets to that. Your conviction must be clear and free of ambiguities; you cannot love the world and yet love Jesus; you will have to choose between the two.

Many of the believers and apostles of old who were martyred have secured for themselves a level of eternal glory that is unparalleled (see Revelation 2:10). Those who denied Christ during their time have also died, but do not share in their level of glory.
2 Timothy 2:12-13 (KJV) If we suffer, we shall also reign with him: if we deny him, he also will deny us: If we believe not, yet he abideth faithful: he cannot deny himself

Go into today knowing that, ‘‘he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved''.
Prayer: Father, help me to be faithful to the end, In Jesus' name. Amen.
