1 Corinthians 9:1-2 #TPT
Am I not completely free and unrestrained? Absolutely! Am I not an apostle? Of course! Haven’t I had a personal encounter with our Jesus face-to-face—and continue to see him? Emphatically yes! Aren’t you all the proof of my ministry in the Lord? Certainly! If others do not recognize me as their apostle, at least you are bound to do so, for now your lives are joined to the Lord. You are the living proof, the certificate of my apostleship.

120 students abducted from Bethel Baptist school in Nigeria by Muslim extremists.
Why are we so silent on this???
On this podcast I ask BTJ Nigerian partner and friend Pastor @Olamide to explain to us the situation.

This could be interesting. I'll do some research and keep you updated
John 15:7-11 #TPT
But if you live in life-union with me and if my words live powerfully within you—then you can ask whatever you desire and it will be done.
When your lives bear abundant fruit, you demonstrate that you are my mature disciples who glorify my Father!
“I love each of you with the same love that the Father loves me. You must continually let my love nourish your hearts.
If you keep my commands, you will live in my love, just as I have kept my Father’s commands, for I continually live nourished and empowered by his love.
My purpose for telling you these things is so that the joy that I experience will fill your hearts with overflowing gladness!

I just spoke to a friend in France. Macron has mandated the vaccine for all and a passport system. Consequences of disobedience include complete isolation, cannot go buy food or assemble.
Some people on both sides are protesting and getting violent.
Some Christians dont know what to do, and fear is prevalent.
Let's pray for France!
I'll be going there in August.
Psalms 29:8-11 #TPT
God reveals himself when he makes the fault lines quake, shaking deserts, speaking his voice.
God’s mighty voice makes the deer to give birth. His thunderbolt-voice lays the forest bare. In his temple all fall before him with each one shouting, “Glory, glory, the God of glory!”
Above the furious flood, the Enthroned One reigns, the King-God rules with eternity at his side. This is the one who gives his strength and might to his people.
This is the Lord giving us his kiss of peace.

Philippians 2:2-5 #TPT
So I’m asking you, my friends, that you be joined together in perfect unity—with one heart, one passion, and united in one love. Walk together with one harmonious purpose and you will fill my heart with unbounded joy.
Be free from pride-filled opinions, for they will only harm your cherished unity. Don’t allow self-promotion to hide in your hearts, but in authentic humility put others first and view others as more important than yourselves.
Abandon every display of selfishness. Possess a greater concern for what matters to others instead of your own interests.
And consider the example that Jesus, the Anointed One, has set before us. Let his mindset become your motivation.

As a parent, I know that it is difficult to see your child suffer. I have worked with the persecuted church for over 20 years and know how much harder it is for Christians to see the authorities come after their children than after themselves.
This is why we started the BTJ Martyr Scholarship fund.
I have two kids in college and I know the kind of unexplainable excitement a scholarship can bring to a family. One of my favorite things to do in life these days is to see the tuition of a child of a persecuted family get their tuition paid for!
Nothing Like it!
