Pray for a team planning travel around the Island encouraging believers to fulfill the Great Commission.

This one's worth watching if only because I got a warning when I tried to share my post on my Facebook page lol ( I mentioned the 'C' word) which perfectly illustrated the point of this little video.

Andy B 2 Minute Video, Whose Truth Is It Anyway, Season 4, Episode 40

https://youtu.be/eEAR7N0GOss

It’s easy to be bamboozled by people telling us their truth. And we’ve seen, during COVID, media sources confuse everybody by spreading their own opinions, while calling their opinions fact and, at the same time, deleting and blocking any, and all, comments that they simply didn’t like. The truth has been belittled to opinions, just shouted ever louder!

MSM means Main Stream Media – I had to look it up. And the trouble with MSM is that they do exactly the same thing as social media, only they do it while wearing business suits on our television sets.

@sinbach Yes, I've noticed this too, and it's a bit scary actually, because I'm thinking, what if it was Finland and not Ukraine? Would people think all kind of bad about us too and salute how Putin is actually doing a good job when destroying us and our country..? I admit, it's probably a confusing thought that the main stream media would talk truth "for once"(and I agree they often don't), so I can very well understand how it's easy to start playing around with thoughts of all kinds of conspiracy theories. But I believe this time they are telling the truth about Putin. There really is demonic forces behind him. I probably would have been looking for these alternative theories too, if it wasn't for the fact that this dictator is my neighbour..! We living next door have a long history that teaches us NOT to be naive. We know this is for real and we could be next.

For in the day of trouble he will keep me secretly in his pavilion: In the covert of his tabernacle will he hide me; He will lift me up upon a rock.
Psalms 27:5 ASV

Dear brothers and sisters in Christ, remember well these two verbs present in this verse:

1) to keep
2) to hide

God has the power to keep and hide his children redeemed with the precious blood of Christ.

For in the day of trouble
he will keep YOU secretly
in his pavilion:

In the covert of his tabernacle
will he hide YOU;

He will lift YOU up upon a rock.

This is a promise to those
who feel in danger!

"This is what I mean, brothers: The time is short. From now on, those who have wives should live as though they had none, and those who mourn as though they did not mourn, and those who rejoice as though they were not rejoicing, and those who buy as though they did not own a thing, and those who use the things in this world as though they were not dependent on them. For the world in its present form is passing away."
1. Cor. 7: 29-31.

Look to Jesus! Cling on to Him! Make Him your absolute and ultimate goal! This world is fading. Our hearts should be so sealed in Him, so that whatever we do, have or own in this life, it won't shake or distract us away from the Rock we're standing on. By standing firmly on that Rock, Jesus, we are showing the Light to people around us to also join us there. To find true life. And that Rock will NEVER shake.

In this episode @sinbach talks about the war and the refugee crises in Europe. I feel honoured and touched that he makes comparisons with, and tell about, the Finnish Winter War during WWII against the Russian army. ❤️ 🙏 There are few that can place Finland (and many other foreign countries) on a map, and Eugene knows not only where the countries are, but also have visited them and knows a lot of details about them.

Please pray for Finland and Sweden, for protection! I don't know what could possibly happen, but these days are traumatic/emotional for Finns, both because of the former wars against Russia, and because of the indirect threaths Putin has uttered.

Please pray for our president Sauli Niinistö that will leave for the USA tomorrow for an appointment with Joe Biden! (I shared a statement from our president in an earlier post today). As you might know Finland and Sweden are among the few nations in Europe that are not members of NATO.

This was posted on Facebook by the ministry 8thirty8:
"Dear friends, as we pray for Ukraine, let's also lift up our brothers and sisters in Russia. We received this update from a Russian friend this week."
"Please remember to pray for us here in Russia too! We are broken and hurting. But there are many believers here. We are continuing to preach the gospel and comfort people and encourage them to look to God! We have to look at God and go through this fiery furnace. Please pray for us believers in Russia who are trying to change our country from the inside out. One person at a time. We will preach the Gospel and God's love!" Message clipped. I didn't post the prayer from 8thirty8 due to space constraint.

But it is good for me to draw near to God;
I have put my trust in the Lord God,
that I may declare all Your works.

Psalms 73:28 NKJV

With the news I’ve thought back to my time with Ukrainian and Russian Soldiers
#Christianity #Christian #God #Jesus #Prayer https://bit.ly/3HpnqHH

Is there any hope for our nation ? #Srilanka
Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will live, even though he dies; and whoever lives and believes in me will never die.” (John 11:25-26)

I received (yesterday) this forwarded message from a sister in Christ in Finnish, and again my own translation of it to English:

"We got a message yesterday from our friend in Kiev:
I want to encourage you with the words of our known soldiers and of other common people who are coming from different warfronts. They tell:
"We feel your prayers. Sometimes happens something very inexplicable, like an invisible hand really would direct the bullets and other ammunitions away from us so that they fly us by. We get victories in very difficult situations, like if someone was guiding them. We become invisible to our enemy, but we self can see them in complete darkness so that we know what and how to react. All of this is giving us courage and strenght. We believe that the Lord Jesus himself is protecting Ukraine. We ask you, please, don't quit your prayers, but keep on praying. We need you!"

“Great is Thy faithfulness,” O God my Father,
there is no shadow of turning with Thee;
Thou changest not, Thy compassions, they fail not as Thou hast been Thou forever wilt be.

“Great is Thy faithfulness!” “Great is Thy faithfulness!” Morning by morning new mercies I see; all I have needed Thy hand hath provided
“Great is Thy faithfulness,” Lord, unto me!

Summer and winter, and springtime and harvest, Sun, moon and stars in their courses above, join with all nature in manifold witness
to Thy great faithfulness, mercy and love.

Pardon for sin and a peace that endureth,
Thine own dear presence to cheer and to guide;
strength for today and bright hope for tomorrow, blessings all mine, with ten thousand beside!

@sarikorpi wow. Praying on! Was praying just yesterday for Russian bullets to be redirected".

Wow - thanks for sharing

The coming night and tomorrow day are critical moments. At stake is everything, what the whole civilisized world believes and what it has built so far.

With tears in our eyes we request you, no matter on what time zone you are in, to spend time in prayer and fasting in front of God. 🙏

Pray the Lord to protect us from insane armies, which wants to mock at the cost of faith and God's truth.

We ask you to share this message to all your friends, relatives and acquaintances in Europe, Asia, America and all over the world!

Prayer is stronger than the strongest enemy🙏🙏🙏!

Your brothers and sisters from Ukraine 💙💛

@DevotionalTreasures our family prayer time today was specifically about Putin meeting Jesus, or more specifically for Jesus to go meet him in person

Putin is the one man that can end these troubles.

Jesus is the only way to end these troubles

Let's go "Back to Jerusalem " through Sri Lanka !
Jesus is the solution to the challenges #Srilanka is facing today.

From a pastor in Ukraine. I found it on FB, "Radiant Israel."
