Stunning new report saint
Your prayers work (and a key)
Hi overcomer.
It's nice to report good news.
And so...
This year let's see if we can cheer each other along with such things—and so stir each other up to good works and love.
Because as Paul says...
"The only thing that counts is faith expressing itself through love."
Galatians 5:6 NIV
Or as the RSV puts it—"Faith working through love."
So...
Let's break in on this update from Israel which arrived a few days ago. It's a perfect example of how faith works by love...
"Our team member Roger, who is also the young adults’ leader at his local congregation, got a call from Zaim, an on-fire believer in his congregation,
“The pre-military program I’m in asked me to organize a lecture from Christians about Christmas, and I thought of inviting you.”
As they talked and prayed, the idea came up for Roger, an Arab Christian, to come together with me, a Messianic Jew
And for us to share together as one new man in Messiah about our faith in Jesus, Yeshua, with these soldiers-in-training.
There are 33 Jewish students and 11 Arab Christian students (all nominal except Zaim) in the course.
What an amazing opportunity to reach these young men and women with the Good News!"
A bit more...
"Roger and I were praying in the Spirit on the way there, and I saw a vision of a leg smashing down a metal door. About five seconds later, though I hadn’t said anything, Roger said, “I sense in the Spirit that we just smashed down a metal door with our legs.”
God was confirming that not just because of our prayers but especially because of all your prayers over all these years...
God had broken down the opposition and was opening a great door before us!"
I particularly noted this line overcomer (I'm sure you did too :) where Zaim says…
"Roger and I were praying in the Spirit on the way there." (My emphasis).
You bet they were. They'd just been given permission to share with Jews (and Israeli Arabs too) about to go to war in the IDF. A Jew and Arab witness to them together that Jesus will heal them and give them new life!
I'll let you see what happens next for yourself saint—No wonder the LORD heals folk they pray for eh :)
‘These things says He who is holy, He who is true, “He who has the key of David, He who opens and no one shuts, and shuts and no one opens”:
“I know your works.
See, I have set before you an open door, and no one can shut it; for you have a little strength, have kept My word, and have not denied My name."
Revelation 3:7-8 NKJV
To finish up…
Back to you and I overcomer.
In 2024 doors will open wide and strong for you.
Yet you need a key to start the process...
The key = PRAY IN TONGUES.
(A lot). Stunning results follow.
Bless you.
