FJWL_02:423
         Even a little candle of truth shines many miles in the midst of blackness and darkness. So continue to let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify Me. Though they may try to snuff out your light by putting a bushel over it, nevertheless that bushel shall burst into flames with the power of the fire that I have put within you and the Words that I have given you!
         As you go through this time [of persecution] I shall raise you up. I shall give you power for the hour! I shall give you the strength that you need in the time that you need it. I have not forsaken you, nor will I forsake you. I have kept you close these many years. I am not a man that I can leave and turn My back on you, for My love is an everlasting love. I know your heart and the purity of your motives and your desire to serve Me. I will be faithful to you forever!
         It must needs be that these afflictions happen, but woe to them by whom they happen! Woe to them that bring these afflictions and persecutions upon you! For their cup of iniquity does fill, and in overflowing they will see the vengeance of an angry God upon them, and there will be none that can withstand My anger in that day!
         Keep going! Don't stop! Go forward in the power of My Spirit! Fear not! Fret not! Stand strong and I will keep you! (GN 569)
