From a Christian standpoint: It would largely depend on the effect the bullying is having and the extant of the bullying.

Jesus set a strong moral principle at Matthew 5:39 - "However, I say to you: Do not resist the one who is wicked, but whoever slaps you on your right cheek, turn the other also to him."

This implies letting ourselves be bullied and persecuted. Earlier in that chapter, in verses 3-12, Jesus said that Christians would be persecuted (bullied), and that the Christian should actually be happy about it. This is because he knows he is doing the right thing and is making God happy, who will reward him.

However, if the bullying involves actual illegal activities or physical harm, you can follow the example of Paul in Acts chapters 25 and 26 where he took legal action against his persecutors.

If the bullying is to get you to stop your worship, You must listen to God rather than to men. You can follow Peter and John's example on this at Acts 4:19,20 - "But in reply Peter and John said to them: "Whether it is right in the sight of God to listen to you rather than to God, judge for yourselves. But as for us, we cannot stop speaking about the things we have seen and heard."
