#Gratitude:
A couple of years ago, i sat with my Wife and got something major off my chest. The conversation went something like this:
Me: Babe...if I got killed in the Field..if i got martryed...would it be a shame to you ..or an Honour?
Babe...what if I head out..and I don't come back alive..how would you take it..do you ever think about this?

My Wife: (looking into my eyes and holding my hand)...
I have actually thought about it many times...the Children and I spend much time praying for you whenever you are in the field...Daddy will reach the People and come home safely!
And just know.... I wouldn't be ashamed if you died a Martyr...I would see it as a great great Honour!
What you do is very very important.. People must be reached!
......and by the way you ain't dying any time soon!!!!!

Me: (I didn't know what to say in response....just grateful that I Married Ndidi Olamide Adekunle) ❤️

Leaving home..heading out...it is as if I turn into another person!
Boldness begins to pump through my body and my mind... honestly...feels like I turn into a Super Hero... adrenaline high, abi?....or is it the anointing?
Those who have travelled with me...have mentioned how i am very very different once it is time to work.
And they begin to look for a way to define it... "you are an Apostle!!!!!"..."You are a Prophet!!!"
Wow!!! There's Power in Evangelism.... supernatural Power!!!

The high remains throughout the trip....I only sleep about 2-3hrs when in the field...and work we do!

Returning home...I become my usual ordinary unassuming self.
Looking back on work done...I am totally wrecked.
I have seen Lives changed.. Miracles.. Healings..I have seen Jesus work....and it is ALL JESUS....we are just vessels.

Had a great night last night in Stockholm, Sweden, with the BTJ team @sinbach @bethany and Brother Yun and his Swedish-Finnish interpreter. Many young people who responded to Yun's message.

My daughter just wrote this. Please pray for baby! As Grandma my heart is aching. Jesus please heal and fast!

We are saved by knowing the truth. Have you learned it?

"Merry Christmas from China – 600 People, Mostly Women, Sent Back to North Korea to Face Torture

Eugene 20 h

China just carried out the largest deportation of North Koreans in years, most of them women, sending them back to North Korea. They have not been heard from since.

According to recent reports from a Seoul-based human rights group, China sent about 600 people back to North Korea after Pyongyang ended their lockdown. North Korea views the repatriated refugees as traitors and they face torture, sexual violence, and death when they return.

Reports from BTJ missionaries inside North Korea share that many in the country are starving to death this winter. The economy has suffered greatly from the extreme Covid lockdowns. North Korea was the first nation in the world to shut down and the last to open up. The number of people who died from the pandemic in the country is still not known." ->

This season we pray for the peace of Israel.

"BTJ has been reporting on the influence of the CCP on TikTok for several years. Every year, BTJ hosts a hacker’s conference where hackers from around the world come together to help missionaries on the field. One of the top recommendations from the Hacker’s Conference for Chinese missionaries on the field is to not use TikTok."

Well, 'I wonder why' - when it programs & influences young minds - even a family youngster says 'it's stupid' by now - and jumping into MaoWok, is it any wonder there is "a stir-fry" going on, no matter the subject in question. After all, we're talking TOTALITARIANISM (-'fake-communism-nazism-'-cleptocracy-front) here... Players and actors in/on the great world theatre etc.
