YOU’RE CHANGING
David Wilkerson (1931-2011)
“You know what you were. Something of the world has gotten your heart. I don’t know if it’s television. I don’t know what it is that has your heart, but I see changes in you. I don’t see the brokenness. I don’t see the compassion you had once for your family. I don’t see concern for your unsaved loved ones. You’re changing, little by little something’s happening to you.
Would it bring you to your knees?”

Why does the underground church of China continue to grow? How did it survive through the harshest years of communism?
"They did not depend on a centralized structure. Any believer could plant a church, preach, and baptise others. In this way they could multiply in secret. Also, strong organisations are easy to target. You can destroy their buildings, freeze their assets and arrest their leaders, but a church that does not depend on buildings, bank accounts or a hand-full of leaders, is very hard to control."

SUPERNATURAL
J. Hudson Taylor (1832-1905)
“God's power is available power. We are supernatural people, born again by a supernatural birth, kept by a supernatural power, sustained on supernatural food, taught by a supernatural Teacher from a supernatural Book. We are led
by a supernatural Captain in right paths to assured victories." read Luke Chapter 10

Prayers welcome. My family and I are not feeling well. We've been hit by another round of Covid. Our first time was in November, 2020. This one is different, but also miserable.

✝️ HE IS RISEN ✝️
The tombstone was rolled away.
Death was defeated.
My sins are forgiven.
I have everlasting life because of His blood that was shed for me and because He lives - I too have the promise of life eternal with my Creator.

I have sooo much to learn from Him!!!

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!"

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

Are you like me and assume that persecution against Christians was worse 2,000 years ago?
that is not what the data shows.
According to a recent report, 2021 saw more Christians martyred for their faith than at ANY OTHER TIME IN HISTORY!
