PRAYER NEEDED: We were driving down the main street in our town here in China, when I saw a man, completely naked IN THE WINTER COLD! He was lifting a very large public metal garbage can and banging it on the ground. We immediately turned our van around to go help.When we got to him there was a crowd of 100+ spectators. Not one helping. Not one in position to help women and children if he ran towards them. Just videoing and laughing. I wept over this afterwards. I walked up to him and saw bruises on his back.He was crouching at the time and was attempting to lift the metal garbage box above him. I immediately told him her was loved and called him a friend. He stoppped. He let me take his cut bleeding hands off the box. Suddenly he sobered up mentally and started to speak English. We only exchanged a few words and the police arrived.he panicked and yelled “please don’t take my life” over and over as they forced him into a police car. Pray for him. For Salvation. For Jesus!
The sad anthem of our world could be the Frank Sinatra song, " My Way." Even sadder is the fact that God's children sometimes follow this folly! There is only one Way, it is His Way.

This is the sermon of the year! This pastor is currently sitting in a Canadian jail cell for conducting services in accordance with his conscience instead of the edicts of the government. This message, which was the pastor’s last before he was arrested, is a must listen regarding the relationship between the church and the government.
Well, I just recently joined. It will be refreshing to say what I want. We were born for such a time as this. I know that what they did to Jesus they will do to us. Jesus wasn’t surprised or taken off guard and neither should we. We belong to Him. With His strength we can die to ourselves and take up our cross and follow Him. This is a spiritual battle for humanity and our souls. We need to be like the old hymn, onward Christian soldiers marching as to war, with the cross of Jesus going on before! Take a stand and fight. Our souls depend on it.
Ok. With America one step closer to this INEQUALITY act, now is the time for everyone to get our friends, family and people around the world connected on here. One day overnight we could be disconnected. I have connections in dozens of countries but sadly it is connections that are mostly social media even though I have been with them all at their places. It would be devastating to lose that. We need to all become diligent. I will pick up my traffic here and began to drive my persecuted church friends here from around the world. Let's pray for all countries who are already under authoritarian rule and let's pray for America that the plan of the enemy is stopped before they get there. It could happen quick.
I was inspired by example of the Israelites in Numbers 9 today, that they followed God in the pillar of cloud wherever and whenever He lead. Here is my devotion based on this scripture:

Subways are a hub for human trafficking & pedos. Children are snatched in seconds and gone without a trace.
It looks like there is definitely a hidden 'home' within the subway tunnels.

#HolySpirit
When I think I can go no further, Spirit wind comes under my wings, lifts me above the fray, maneuvering to miss fiery missiles from below, He gives me rest.
#Prayer
Almighty God and Father, when it seems like the people around me are my enemies, please remind me that my true enemies are not flesh-and-blood people, but unseen beings focused on leading me away from You to an eternity of pain and suffering.
Help me to face my struggles and problems today in light of eternity and the unseen battle for my mind that will lead only to death and hell.
Deliver me from these unseen foes, and let me feel Your presence when I’m feeling weak and discouraged so I can endure and win. Faith in Jesus’ Name, Amen.
