This Sunday at Church: Pray for Missionaries with health issues

Not just health issues, but missionaries tend to face mental and emotional stressors, as well as the obvious spiritual attacks. Their health also is often in need.

Lord, help those in unfamiliar towns, cities, and nations to be healthy. Stretch out Your healing hand over those who are suffering illness and injury, empowering them to remain faithful. If necessary, keep them safe until they heal or come home to family and friends. Empower your servants to reach the lost, in Your name.

Daniel

For this Sunday here’s what you can do: Pray for Missionaries with health issues.

VerseD: Exodus 33:14

And he said, “My presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.”

We can rest knowing that God is with us by His Holy Spirit, comforting and guiding us as we pursue Him more and live out our lives for His glory.

VerseD: Psalm 4:8

In peace I will both lie down and sleep; for you alone, O Lord, make me dwell in safety.

Psalm 4:8, ESV‬

Our sovereign God is the source of all peace, and, when we are found in Christ, we can know that He is in control and watching over us at every moment

VerseD: Micah 6:8

‭He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the Lord require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?

Micah 6:8, ESV‬

Our sovereign God has shown us the path of peace: to love God through acknowledging His goodness and our need for Him and by living rightly with others in kindness, love, and justice.

VerseD: 3 John 11

Beloved, do not imitate evil but imitate good. Whoever does good is from God; whoever does evil has not seen God.

3 John 11, ESV‬

When we do our own thing rather than follow our sovereign God’s will, it leads to pain and anxiety. When we follow His will, it brings peace, freedom, and hope in the imminent return of Christ.

Apologetics and Secular Leftists Version of Tolerance

Good thoughts here.

Daniel

Over the years we see the increase hostility of the secular leftists against Christianity.   I remember sometime ago I wrote “Anti-Christian latest intolerance: Swiss Christian Chocolate Company.” I thought I share some thoughts related to this from an apologetics dimension with how this version of tolerance pushed by the elites today is intellectually bullet ridden.

For to set the mind on the flesh is death, but to set the mind on the Spirit is life and peace.

Our God is in complete control, having created the heavens and the earth and preparing to bring heaven to earth through us. We can therefore take His example and find rest and peace in Him, trusting that He is working all things for His purpose.
