Thu, 04/12/2008 - 1:26am Word of encouragment for my persecuted brethren

While I was in prayer for all this horrible terror toward christians in India/Orissa I received this word from the Lord (Ps40:1-3) :

1 I waited patiently for the LORD;
And He inclined to me,
And heard my cry.
2 He also brought me up out of a horrible pit,
Out of the miry clay,
And set my feet upon a rock,
And established my steps.
3 He has put a new song in my mouth—
Praise to our God;
Many will see it and fear,
And will trust in the LORD.

Stay strong in the Lord and wait for Him! Be strenghtened in your faith and don't lose heart! He is goind to bring you out of the pit of destruction as He brought Daniel out of the lion's den. Keep worsiping Him, when Paul and Silas worshiped all the place shook and the prison gates opened (Acts16:25-30). I believe many of those who persecute you will turn to Jesus as they see your boldness and firmness in faith as Paul did when Stephen was executed (Acts7:58)- "many will see and hear, and will trust in the Lord"
Our Lord Jesus won the victory forus on the cross - 1John 5:4
Let your hearts be strenghtened and comforted in the fellowship of the Spirit!
Keep supporting you in prayer.
