@tanjaostman hmmm..I have much to say about this...and will definitely message you on this.
Sometimes the persecution is actually along "ethnic" lines...
Where it is along Religious lines you will in these Regions see a very vibrant Church....and yes...there are amazing Christians in Nigeria...
Almighty God, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, come to my help and deliver me from this difficulty that besets me. I believe, Lord, that all trials of life are under Your care and that all things work for the good of those who love You. Take away from me fear, anxiety and distress. Help me to face and endure my difficulty with faith, courage and wisdom. Grant that this trial may bring me closer to You, for You are my rock and refuge, my comfort and hope, my delight and joy. I trust in Your love and compassion. Blessed is Your name. In Jesus' name. Amen.
What are we doing? 😭
What are we guilty of?
5 nearly full-term babies found in boxes with Curtis Bay Medical Waste services.
Curtis Bay Medical Waste Services burns the babies to provide electricity to Baltimore.
Consider that! We Americans find it more tolerable to burn babies for energy than to open Keystone Pipeline.

@Jo_PrayerN_actionCenter interesting. Here there are so many divorces children without both parents in home. I wonder if that would slow it down.

My trip to Africa has been delayed and I have been livid. The delay changed all of my plans and cost extra money - BUT! Then today - I had a divine meeting that was NOT planned with a team of Chinese serving in the Middle East that I have not seen in years. Our travel paths crossed for only a moment and now sooooo many opportunities have opened up because of that one.single.meeting.
Not my plans - but Gods
HOWEVER - it would be cool if He at least gave me a heads up. ????
We lack power in the Western Church today because many of us still struggle with believing God loves and accepts us. We fear retribution for failure and making mistakes. We cannot operate in power in authority when we fear mistakes. Why? Because no one has trained us in spiritual warfare, the only way to learn is to begin trying.
To become warriors for God's Kingdom, we must have a deep enough trust in God's grace to know that He will catch us when we fall. Only then will we have the courage to try and fail until we succeed.
My earthly father was gracious with my mistakes, which gave me the courage to try new things. Our Heavenly Father is much more generous than my earthly Dad.
Let's go do try things. Make mistakes and learn from them.
No more bleacher critics. We need missionaries and pioneers.
Heal the sick
Raise the dead
Cast out demons
As you go, proclaim that the Kindom of God is here
Arranged Marriages in India, Nepal, Bangladesh and South Asia. It is estimated that 80 percent of all marriages in South Asia are arranged by the bride and groom's parents. Many future spouses have never meet each other before they are introduced by their parents. Even so arranged marriages have a very high success rate.
Please pray for first generation believers, who struggle to find a life mate! https://factsanddetails.com/asian/cat62/sub407/item2605.html
“And Jesus went throughout all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues and proclaiming the gospel of the kingdom and healing every disease and every affliction. When he saw the crowds, he had compassion for them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd. Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few; therefore pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest.”
Matthew 9:36-38
The “harvesters” are also the healers which goes hand in hand with the good news of the Kingdom.
