Don´t be scared with persecutions that can happen during your journey with Christ, for all that you suffer for loving the Lord and doing His will is part of your training. God is wise and will never allow you to go through something that is not beneficial to your Christian life. The Most High knows what you need; therefore, accept this preparation as a gift from the Heavens!
When one is afflicted for the Name of the Lord, they must rejoice, for they are being taught to live their calling in a worthy manner. Why be sad with those who don´t even know they are being used by the enemy? In this case, the right thing to do is to bind the demon that works in that life and pray for that person not to get lost. Never curse a person, just bless them, for they will have you draw near to God!
We only have one foundation to fight against Hell: believe in the Lord´s Word. Christians are told that they will suffer persecutions and will go through afflictions (John 16:33). Your response when attacked by adversities must be like that of the psalmist: It is good for me that I have been afflicted, That I may learn Your statutes (Psalm 119:71). Don´t get desperate to the point of cursing your persecutor.
Your problem is not against man – used to draw you from divine presence -, but agaisnt the hellish forces (Ephesians 6:12). Then, remain steadfast in the mission received by the Most High and don´t mind those who want to draw you away from Him. If you sense something is wrong, remain steadfast and use the authority of the Name of Jesus to bind such hellish force. God wants to be glorified through your decision of a blessed child!
At all times, your garments must be white. Therefore, don’t let wrath or any other bad thing change your position in Christ. Right now, rise up in the Name of Jesus and cast out the wicked spirit that is working in your persecutor. Then, act like a heavenly warrior by blessing that person used by the enemy. They are part of your training. Thus, you will come out stronger and victorious from this unpleasant situation.
Jesus did not say that you would be unhappy when persecuted. He talks about blessing, and this means that you will come out better from the battles. What God says in His Word must be your decision: otherwise, you will never be prepared to serve Him. Be patient to those used by the wicked one. If you curse them, they will never be freed.
Don´t be found lacking, for your loss will be greater than some possible hassles. Determine that you will not shame the name you are known by in the heavenly places: faithful servant. Remain unshakeable in your calling and fulfill it. God wants to see you fighting the good fight at all times.
In Christ, with love,

Father! To follow You is the highest privilege we can have in life, but it must be done according to Your Word. Therefore, we ask for mercy, so that we are not ruled by the flesh!
It bothers that we are persecuted, especially when doing nothing. However, Your Kingdom cannot suffer any loss with our attitudes, but it must be exalted. Thus, the person being used will not be target to curses, but of blessings proclaimed by us.
In the Name of Jesus, may all powers from hell that are working in this life and others to oppress us be bound now. We set the captives free, according to Your guidance, and we cry for mercy for those influenced by the devil. Amen!
