2 Matthew 5: 1-12 NKJV 1 And seeing the multitudes, He went up on a mountain, and when He was seated His disciples came to Him. 2 Then He opened His mouth and taught them, saying: 3 "Blessed are the poor in spirit, For theirs is the kingdom of heaven. 4 Blessed are those who mourn, For they shall be comforted.
3 Matthew 5: 1-12 NKJV 5 Blessed are the meek, For they shall inherit the earth. 6 Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, For they shall be filled. 7 Blessed are the merciful, For they shall obtain mercy. 8 Blessed are the pure in heart, For they shall see God. 9 Blessed are the peacemakers, For they shall be called sons of God.
4 Matthew 5: 1-12 NKJV 10 Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake, For theirs is the kingdom of heaven. 11 "Blessed are you when they revile and persecute you, and say all kinds of evil against you falsely for My sake. 12 "Rejoice and be exceedingly glad, for great is your reward in heaven, for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you.

17 In June 2014, the world watched in horror as Islamic extremists who had declared themselves The Islamic State (ISIS) took over the northern Iraqi city of Mosul, which is also the ancient kingdom of Nineveh (Book of Jonah). Christians had lived in Mosul and the Nineveh plain for centuries. Every Christian in Mosul was killed or forced to leave their homes; some with just the clothing on their backs.
18 Members of ISIS went door to door to identify Christian families. A red Arabic ن was spray-painted on the homes of our brothers and sisters. The ن stood for Nasara the Muslim term for followers of Jesus of Nazareth. Ultimatum: a. convert to Islam, b. leave, or c. be killed. Approximately 200,000 Christians refused to deny Christ and left everything behind.
19
20 Even as the Christians were fleeing their homes, Christians around the world began using this same Arabic symbol to demonstrate that they were also followers of Jesus of Nazareth. A symbol meant to isolate our brothers and sisters for exile or even death, has now become a symbol of hope and courage as we commit to stand with our brothers and sisters facing Islamic persecution.
21 Band together and Pray!
22 Matthew 5: 1-12 NKJV 10 Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake, For theirs is the kingdom of heaven. 11 "Blessed are you when they revile and persecute you, and say all kinds of evil against you falsely for My sake. 12 "Rejoice and be exceedingly glad, for great is your reward in heaven, for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you.
