By seeing what the Scripture says about the certainty of persecution and by talking to God often about how we seek to respond to it (by His grace) and the benefits that we receive from it by being empowered to be transformed and being found worthy to participate in the privilege of glorifying Jesus in it in several ways (Acts 5:41) which results in great eternal rewards. We glorify Jesus by magnifying how attractive He is by trusting His leadership while being persecuted.
