Updates on the Persecution Church

I came across Persecution Blog today, updated by Voice of the Martyers. It is sort of like an online version of their monthly print magazine, which focuses on making the Church aware of persecuted brethren through regular updates and action reports.

Their monthly print magazine is available free upon request. This is another one of my favorite mission magazines. It is a fabulous, full color action pack that inspires me to live my faith boldly for Jesus Christ. It is full of stories of modern day heroes of faith (aka, "a great cloud of witnesses" from Hebrews 12:1) that endure true persecution for the Gospel.

If your not subscribed to it, it's takes just 2 minutes to get started by following this link. Do it today!

Pray for our brothers and sisters in the persecuted church today. Want to be specific? Petition for all those having birthday's today, that God would remind them of His tender mercies and His lovingkindnesses towards them, even in the midst of suffering. Sitting in a jail cell, or locked in a "re-education" camp somewhere in this world, or hiding in a jungle from fanatical persecutors, are brothers and sisters with a birthday today. A birthday is not too small a thing to talk to God about. Pray that he would lift hearts of those discouraged and forgotten and strengthen them with His grace. Sometimes it is God meeting us in the smallest of ways that makes such a big difference.
