@DevotionalTreasures Really appreciated that devotional. Holiness is the essence of God from which all His other attributes flow. He wants His holiness to work in us and to flow through us to touch others, cleansing and transforming us in the process. A surrendered heart opens the door for that to begin. May God give us a heart hungry for His heart of holiness.

Several BTJ supporters have been sharing about the Canadian pastor that was arrested for not shutting down his church.
Some compare it to persecution in China.
Other BTJ supporters argue what has happened to the pastor is not persecution, but is something different entirely.
What's what?
We talk to a pastor in China and ask his opinion.
His answer might ruffle some feathers.

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?

Stop me if you have heard this one before....
A group of Bible Smugglers, John Calvin, and the Pilgrims walk into a bar, order a Bloody Mary and laugh - because it connects them all.
In our latest article we tell you how Bloody Marys are connected to the long history of Bible smuggling.

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.

Pray for the North Korean Christians who choose to stay against all odds to love Jesus and their Korean neighbors in the hope of leading them to Jesus. Persecution fuels the spread of the gospel. Holy Spirit is the fire that spreads hope and courage in those persecuted hearts for that gospel. Don’t just ask for courage for them, impart it with faith hope and love in the minds of all those willing to receive it. If you believe.... watch out! Anything can happen with Him.

Just finished the Chasing Revival: A Road Trip Bible Study mini series documentary by Eugene Bach. Extremely informative, super adventurous and really easy to follow. I don’t think I’ve ever wanted to simply go out to evangelize more than I do now. Do it already.

Solzhenitsyn was right

Pray for those in Myanmar. 91 people have recently been killed by the military police that took over government power. Lord, Give strength to the powerless in need and peace to those in danger from those in power. Amen.

"See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland." -Isaiah 43:19⛲🏜️🌊

Remarkable testimony of Chinese evangelist that died and went to heaven. What he saw changed his life forever.
