Dear DingDash family, please keep us in your prayers today. I am here in the US writing Meriam Ibrahim's story. Not an easy story. Yesterday was filled with emotion and tears as Meriam talked about being born in a refugee camp, her father brutally murdering her aunt for an honor killing, her mother being tied up for two days and raped, and her running away and hiding to escape circumcision - only to be forcefully dragged back to the village and the Muslim elders publicly witnessing her genital mutilation - and this was all before she was even 7 years old!
We can use all the prayers we can get for this project.
Father, You’ve put on my heart over this last week to intercede for every member of this group, as well as those needs which You have placed in their heart. I ask You, Father, to keep Your wall built around each person; that no areas of the wall will become weakened by fatigue, discouragement, anxiety, or even satanic attack. May this group be strong in the Lord, trusting You in all things and at all times. May we go about the Father’s business with expectation of joy in what doors You will open for us. May we join together in love for You, Abba, and in love for each other. May You anoint each person within this group with a burning desire to share the gospel, to heal the sick, to make disciples! May we be obedient to every command You instruct us to do. May we not grow weary in doing good and allow Your joy to be our strength. Father, it is a privilege to link arms with my fellow brothers and sisters on this site. Bless each one. In Jesus’s name, Amen.
Do something that takes you out of your comfort zone.
Join us in Iraq.

This week in Egypt, terrorists posted a video showing the execution of three people. One of them was 62-year-old Coptic Christian, Nabil El-Habashy.
His crime? Helping to rebuild a church.

Who will be the champion of truth and justice for your nation? You will.
“But I’m a nobody.”
“I don’t have any training.”
“I hate speaking in front of crowds”
“I don’t have money.”
Guess what!? You are qualified!
“When they saw how boldly Peter and John were speaking, and realized that they were untrained, ordinary men, they were astonished, and they recognized them as people who had been with Jesus.” Acts 4:13
Untrained,
Ordinary,
been with Jesus = qualified + able.
The next step is OBEY

Not all ministers need a stage.
Not all preachers need a microphone.
Not all ministries need neon lights.
Missionaries in closed countries are going back to the basics and using the same methods as the 1st century church - using simple business opportunities to spread the Gospel.
That's why we are hosting a Christian business forum and are inviting you to come and meet our Chinese, Asian, Middle Eastern, and African partners that currently use business in closed countries to support the spread of the Gospel and how we can partner together.

What we should be learning right now is that freedom doesn’t come from a system. Systems can be good but they only work if people have integrity. Only people who fear God have integrity because they do what is right when only God can see.
Conclusion: Freedom and the rule of law are born and preserved through reverence for God.
You know any Chinese that are not believers?

Just had such an amazing morning on the streets of our town here in the UK. Our church went out to witness to people on this Easter weekend.
We have never seen people so open. People asked us for prayer, asked to take home Bibles, asked if they could come to our Sunday service tomorrow, and we saw several people receive Christ into their lives for the first time! God is SO good! 🙌🏼
NEW RELEASE: COURAGE TO STAND IN THIS GLORIOUS HARVEST!

Prayer often has a delayed effect, even years long delay, but every earnest prayer gets heard and answered. Remember your prayers, write them down, and watch God answer.
“That’s why I’m telling you, everything you request in prayer, everything you ask God for, believe that you receive it, and it will happen for you.” —Jesus (Mark 11:24)

This morning my husband and daughter witnessed A horrific event of a motorcycle being hit by a van. The couple literally flew off the bike!Quickly, we jumped out to help! my daughter immediately checked for injuries. After checking, it seems the lady may have a dislocated arm, broken leg and whiplash.the man seemed ok. Christina told them that she is a Christian, and asked if she could pray for them. They said yes, so she layed her hand on the lady and began to pray out loud.She prayed for peace, healing, thanksgiving and prayed for them to find a more precious meaning for their life. As she left, she told them she loved them.
It is not coincidence that we were there at that exact moment in time to help.
It was not coincidence that she could relate to them and show sympathy - because she herself was hit on a motorbike with her little brother!
So we truly believe that today IS A link in a chain in their lives - which will lead them to Salvation.Will you stop and pray for them?
