This is Soheila Fors, a Kurdish woman born in Iran, living in Sweden, married to a Swedish man. In the second picture you see Soheila’s mother and aunt before the Islamic revolution. Soheila’s father was killed by the regime, and she was abused by her first (Iranian) husband. She met Jesus in her desperation. Soheila has started up several tea houses for immigrant women in Sweden, for fellowship and vocational training. That is too provoking for the Muslim men. She receives death threats on a regular basis. A fire bomb was thrown on their balcony. She doesn’t get enough help from the authorities. It’s a taboo in Sweden to criticize the immigration policy or Islam. Those who suffer the most are women from a Muslim background. They are not defended by the leftist feminists, since they don’t fit the narrative. Some experts say that Sweden is one of the countries in Europe with the highest levels of segregations. There are dozens of no-go-zones and in some areas the sharia law is practiced

Pray for Myanmar and our dear friends there. We heard yesterday thousands of prisoners were released from prison and told to burn houses and make room for civil disobedience citizens and government workers to be jailed. Many Doctors and nurses have been detained. Free prisoners are burning houses whole night. Pray for the Lord's destiny to be fulfilled in this heavily Buddhist nation. Their internet was going to be turned off from the 14th of Feb through the end of the month but some still have internet. Last week many Chinese planes were flying into Myanmar and 2 N Korean planes flew in. Army and police are arresting people at night and taking them to unknown locations and they are not heard from again, for now. From a friend just now: History is unfolding right now there. Watchmen and intercessors proclaim the Lord's will and peace and protection over the innocent.

My husband left this earth on Saturday morning, died in his sleep 💔With a broken heart that only my Savior will be able to mend—- my best friend & husband (31yrs married). He was healthy. But he had an abnormal rare heart rhythm issue for many years. I thought we would grow old together. He was an example of God’s love to all who knew him. Because of him I could believe that God would love me forever. Right now my mind can’t comprehend my future without him. I appreciate your prayers.

I have received unconfirmed reports in the last 24 hours of North Koreans dying in the streets from starvation.
I contacted our team members that work in North Korea and they were not able to confirm the reports, but their ability to travel around is heavily restricted because of COVID.
Our hearts are saddened as our prayers go up.

My youngest daughter was officially diagnosed with autism yesterday at 22 months old. I had my suspicions, but I'm still trying to process the ramifications.

@sinbach well, Tom Brady is going to be in my prayers! I'm gonna pray Christians flood his life at every turn that the love of Jesus will crush the false god's he looks to. Satan falls at the power of the name of Jesus. Plz, Lord, deliver the Brady family from the grip of the enemy. Plz make the gospel shine in Tom's darkness.

Hey Dingdash family! We have something new and super exciting to share with you.

Every day, during the twelve days leading up to Christmas, we will pray together for the persecuted church living in the nations between China and Jerusalem. Each day will be focused on a different nation BTJ missionaries are working in and will be posted on the website and here on DD.

... and so we start today! 🙏🏼❤️🎄

ON THE FIRST DAY OF CHRISTMAS my Savior gave to me, the sign of an old wooden cross made from a simple tree:

Operation Black Trumpet. You are the first to hear about it here on DD.
An article will be posted about it tomorrow.
Many nations in the 10/40 Window are stopping Christian phone apps from being downloaded. Nations like China are searching phones of believers and looking for Christian phone apps.
BTJ has launched a clandestine operation to help those believers living in closed nations.
Though we can't give details about the nature of the project, we are asking for your prayers.

UK is near the end of national lockdown part 2, ending 2nd Dec - but our city goes into local lockdown teir 3 immediately, so we will still be in lockdown. I know the UK has been so comfortable for so long compared to the troubles our brothers and sisters face all over the world, but It's crazy to see this country come under such control and so quickly!!😮
