(Part 1) The Last Days Workers by John Sung (1941)
John Sung wrote a letter to Rev William Schubert on October 14, 1941:
We have been praying in the Spirit for 113 days now. It is clear that God is leading us step by step as we reap spiritual benefits along the way.
In the past, I viewed the work of the evangelistic bands as of paramount importance. Now, I think that praying is more important. The spiritual realm knows no bounds.
When I pray in the Spirit, I sense that workers in the Last Days must have the following:
1. Total mortification
One must be totally dead to the world, to the flesh and to oneself. It is the Lord and not oneself that lives. Only when the self dies can there be any true gain.
2. Direct revelation from the Lord Himself
It is not good enough just to preach the Word; one must prophesy as well. Not only must Jesus’ revelations be in his heart, they must be formed in him as well.
The early part of the day has been stressful, due to persistent headaches in the last three weeks I had a consultation at my opticians who has now referred me to my Neurological Consultant, the possibility being that my residual brain tumour may have grown. So now I am sitting waiting on a phone call which may not happen anytime soon from my consultant. In this I am not afraid, my Father God is completely in control. I would appreciate prayer regarding this.
Thank you brethren for your prayers❤
Update : I have just had an unexpected phone consult with the family doctor (GP) who has now added their support in email to my consultant, requesting a quicker appointment. Usually you have to request such phone consults and wait in line...I believe this consult today was an answer to prayer! All glory to Almighty God.

My daughter, Lisa is out of surgery. She ended up being worse than the doctors expected. She lot a lot of blood and is having a transfusion, she had to have a total hysterectomy but her bladder is ok and didn't need reconstruction. (Lisa was praying her bladder would be ok) she may not have to be in ICU
Baby is doing well.
Thank you for sharing this burden and now sharing in the blessing.

I have to be honest, as I "briskly" walk the streets here, the anger of my presence is palpable and is made vocal with hisses and unintelligible comments, but the love of Christ is greater. Hate is the sign of darkness and the greater the darkness the greater the need for the love of Christ. The carnal mind rejects the idea of sacrificial love but the enemy's aggression against it is a testimony to its power.
