**PLEASE HELP US SAVE OUR VAN!** It is *CRITICAL* for our life and ministry here that we can keep it on the road!

It is time to pass the safety and insurance here in China, and it is very difficult and expensive to do. We need to raise approximately $2000usd, (as we need to pay all fees for 1 year at once) And there are needed repairs in order to pass the safety.

Our ministry here NEEDS our van:
- Joshua's medical needs are critical to have a vehicle on hand!
- For travel to orphanages - especially the country one.
- job is too far away without it
- A Van is the ONLY way that we can drive anywhere as a family of 7!
- We help a family with needs & transportation with their babies.
* There are many reasons that I am not able to share publicly.

If you feel led to help, here is the link! This is a way to support an urgent need and continue the work we do here and bless lives we touch in God's love!

May the Lord Bless you,

WE BELIEVE IN THE POWER OF PRAYER

I recently went thru the 30 days for the persecuted church that was posted by . I'm currently doing the 30 day devotional by BTJ. I'm struck by the difference in the measure of faith exhibited between the western church culture and the Chinese underground church culture. A few step out like David Wilkerson, Billy Graham, Oral Roberts, but not so many of late. We seem to be waiting for a priest to do it for us in the western church. We all have gifts and callings, but possibly not having been mentored as Eli did with Samuel telling him to personally respond, "Speak Lord, I'm listening!". We only want to hear from prophets that tickle our ears and pay no attention that their words continue to hit the ground. We don't recognize the still small voice. Do we take Matthew 6:33 to heart and truly seek HIM?.

Reformation, Conclusion

So if you want to be part of the next move of God, my friends,
set your backbone to be part of the tidal wave - not standing in
the way of it. God is coming to "clean house" - and we better be
ready to be "revolutionaries" along with Him if we want to be part of what He is about to do.

God bless you all!

Andrew Strom.

Reformation, Part III
So what does all this require of us? Simply that we co-operate
with God in what He is wanting to do. For many there will be a
temptation to settle for the simple restoration of holiness and repentance - and to oppose anything that looks like causing much of a 'shaking' beyond that. Brothers and sisters, let me warn you that if you oppose this tidal wave of "change" that God is wanting to bring to the church, then you will end up opposing God Himself. And yet it will be very tempting for many. A lot of us don't like upheaval and spiritual "revolution". But that is exactly what God is wanting to bring. In fact, I believe that without Reformation we will
not get the Revival that we are seeking either. This time Revival
must come through "shaking" and Reformation - and no other way.

Reformation, Part II
Those of us who have studied history think that simple "Revivals" are messy enough. Well, Reformations are ten times worse! And yet, without
this level of "shaking", God simply cannot achieve what He wants to achieve.

I believe God longs for a 'new' Church. I believe He will not be
satisfied until He has a bride for His son that is "without spot or
wrinkle or any such thing." And since we are in the Last Days,
I believe He wants a full restoration - back to the true original purity, pattern and power of the early church. Nothing less will do. And the "shaking" that is required to achieve such a thing i almost beyond comprehension. But it is coming - in fact I believe it is at the door. The global shaking we are going through is nothing compared with what is about to hit the church. It will create a giant "mess" - but it will be a glorious mess. And at the other end of it lies a glorious church - truly fitting for a glorious Savior.

God's solution may not fit our ideas.

REFORMATION - NOT Just REVIVAL by Andrew Strom

Of course, I have written on this theme before. (My first book in
1996 was "The Coming Great Reformation"). But recently I have sensed God reminding me again that unless there is massive "shaking" and change in the church - then any 'move' that comes will not achieve what He desires. Some people simply want a return to repentance preaching and holiness in the churches. They just want an old-fashioned 'Revival'. That is a laudable aim - and one that I personally love - but it is not enough. In fact, it is nowhere near enough.

The fact is, Reformations are far messier, more contentious and
immensely more "shaking" than Revivals. They tend to target pet
doctrines, ingrained cultures and structures that the church has
been clinging to for years. They bring massive disruption and
division. They force people to "choose sides".

"Never has a nation had so many ministers who are doing so much that does not matter, for so few. Never has the arsenal of the weapons of the Kingdom of God been left to gather cobwebs for so long. Never has fear been such a guiding force in the choices of preachers."

Missionaries in Myanmar: Part 2
All missionaries are suffering the misery of this greatly. My faithful missionary friend has a wife who is about to give birth,and there is no hospital opened.He said to me they would deliver the baby themselves in their small house by trusting God.
I have two small little girls, one is two years, and another is six months; I don’t care if I don’t have food to eat, but I think much for them and their safety. May you continue to uphold us in your prayer for our safety, provision, and protection.Soldiers are catching people from every house, and now they are near to us. Please pray for us.”

You can attend a large church, house church, small group, be in a marriage, friendships, etc...and still have no FELLOWSHIP. Better to have FELLOWSHIP with one than be in a room filled with people, and find yourself alone.

’tBeShutUp
The apostles' passionate obedience to the call of God is inspirational.
They knew they were risking their lives when they disobeyed the high priest and his officials by proclaiming Jesus publicly.
They had the "message of life!" How could they not declare it?
Threats didn't stop them. Arrest didn't contain them.
They were propelled by their love for Jesus,
their conviction that he had been raised from the dead,
and the call of their Lord to share his message with their lost friends, neighbors, and even enemies.
Acts 5:17-21

Guys I can't give any details and I will not be posting this information on any other forum, but this week is really important to us at BTJ. we have Chinese pastors that have traveled to be together for the first time since the pandemic started last year. It is amazing to be with them and in prayer with them, but we need to plan the best way to support the church in China for this year. We do not want our own ideas, agendas, and thoughts to pollute what God has for us. Please pray for the leading and the guiding of the Holy Spirit during this time.

If you haven't heard, Canadian pastor James Coates is in jail for holding church services in defiance of COVID edicts. I'm sure he's busy starting a prison ministry from the inside...

"Now I want you to know, brothers and sisters, that what has happened to me has actually served to advance the gospel. As a result, it has become clear throughout the whole palace guard and to everyone else that I am in chains for Christ. And because of my chains, most of the brothers and sisters have become confident in the Lord and dare all the more to proclaim the gospel without fear." (Phil 1:12-14)
