Missionaries in Myanmar: PART 1
“Dear loving Brethren,
I am writing this Report with a broken and trembling heart.My eye is filled with sadness and tears of hurt. First of all I want to beg you to pray for our safety and protection.
The military has taken control and is killing civilians. Everyday we needed to collect dead bodies on the road with tears and pains.Banks are being shut down, and it isn’t easy to get online.
Everywhere is filled with smoke and fire as factories are burned and destroyed.Thousands of people don’t have work,food,and a place to stay now.Almost all of our church members ran back to their village. There is neither market nor a shop where we can buy food because every road is blocked.How long will we last if it continues like this!?
Just a while ago, the soldiers’ truck came and stopped near our house. We were terrified; they captured six people who were having tea in the shop. God is my only Hope.
Please pray for Taiwan! 🙏
A busy passenger train carrying 494 people has derailed in a tunnel in eastern Taiwan, killing at least 51 and injuring dozens more.

Here to ask for earnest prayer on behalf of a dear missionary family in China. They cannot post for themselves. Their family is besieged with respiratory illness, several of them severely. The consequences of even being suspected of being ill like this are severe in China. This family needs the healing power that Jesus paid for on the Cross.They are weary in the battle. Please pray.
Happy Sunday! ❤️ This Sunday morning I'm sat in church in total freedom... a full worship team on stage, the room full of people and the Word is being preached with no restriction. As I'm sat here, I can't help but think of our brothers and sisters around the world today who are totally unable to experience that same freedom. I pray I never become so distracted by my own comfort that my heart forgets to keep them in constant prayer.
This past week, more than a dozen Christians were arrested in China's latest house church raid. Keep the church and its members in your prayers 🙏🏼

URGENT:
Urgent. Pray right away. I (mom) woke up to find Joshua laying beside me - in the middle of a seizure. His don’t shake. Instead he loses body control and can’t move or talk and his heart races etc. so they are basically silent with zero movement. And dangerous because of his type. Christina rushed to take over care of him while I went and mixed the emergency meds. Time is important.
We have given him his emergency medication. And see some small improvement already. But please pray if you see this.🥺🥺🥺🥺
@Berrybunchfamily we are hosting a Family Ministry Night on Friday night. Please, pray for God to draw whole families to Himself. Pray for God to touch the hearts of: Dave, Miranda, Holly, and Chuck among others. Thank you!
Praying for Myanmar today!

@Fisherman @lynnexxa @sinbach Definitely praying for this gathering. This is serious. May His plans and purposes be fully realized.
Communism wins when people don’t resist it. People don’t resist Communism because they fear man more than they fear the Lord. I speak out against Communism because Jesus is Lord, not Caesar. Resistance brings persecution, but I am okay with that. Persecution means I am over the target and in fellowship with Jesus.
“If our goal is reducing persecution, that task is easily achieved...persecution stops immediately where there is no
faith and no witness.” —Nik Ripken. (Missionary and Author Of “The Insanity Of God.”)
🚨Urgent Prayer Needed🚨

Guys I can't give any details and I will not be posting this information on any other forum, but this week is really important to us at BTJ. we have Chinese pastors that have traveled to be together for the first time since the pandemic started last year. It is amazing to be with them and in prayer with them, but we need to plan the best way to support the church in China for this year. We do not want our own ideas, agendas, and thoughts to pollute what God has for us. Please pray for the leading and the guiding of the Holy Spirit during this time.
@bethany
How powerful is Mai Fu Ren’s testimony. What is impossible with man is made possible with God. I cannot imagine a 30 year prison sentence but Mai was in His perfect will. Praise God for him dying to himself in order that the Lord be glorified, Bibles distributed, and souls won for the kingdom. Lord, may we die to self daily in order to do Your will in our own sphere of influence. Amen.
@Olamide I'm beyond happy!!! I've been praying for you ALL the time!! I thought you were out doing the Lord's work ... but ....Yesterday as I prayed I wondered if the Lord took you home and I'd never know what happened. I felt so sad then Jesus lifted my chin and I knew you were ok. I'm so happy you're back!!
