Maintain Your Neutrality in a Dividee World

JEHOVAH WILL HELP YOU

A third way to stay neutral is to rely on Jehovah.  Pray for holy spirit, which can give you patience and self-control.  These qualities will help you if the government does something that is dishonest or unjust.  Ask Jehovah for wisdom to recognize a situation that might make it difficult for you to stay neutral.  And ask him to help you to do the right thing in that situation.  (James 1:5)  You may be sent to prison or punhished in some other way because of being disloyal to Jehovah. If so, pray for courage so that you can explain to others in  clear way why you are neutral.  You can be sure that Jehovah will help you to endure. - Read ACTS 4:27-31. 

Jehovah has give us the Bible to strengthen  us. Meditate on verses that will help you to remain neutral.  Try to learn these verses and remember them, because they will help you if ever you do not have a Bible with you.  The Bible can also strengthen your hope in what God says about the future.  We need this hope to endure persecution.  (Romans 8:25)  Choose verses that describe the things you especially wish to enjoy in the new world, and imagine yourself there.
