A Moment of Prayer Filled Intentions

Dear All One Family:
Today I received this email. I don't know if one word of it is truth filled or not, all that I know is that it came across my mind today and therefore I am going to treat it as being real, simply because in Revelations we are told that in "end times," that many will be persecuted for loving Christ and thus being Christians, will be under attack.

It was quite a few years ago that I realized that many of the seals spoken of in Revelations have already been opened, so to not believe this to be true, is just like trying to pretend that our economy is a doing just fine...

So as my way of doing all that I can, please say the following prayer to all those a needing God's Light, Love, Protection and Peace.

Dear Heavenly Father in the Name of Jesus, our dear brother and His precious Holy Spirit we ask that His Will be done for all we hold up in prayer...we also ask that He be with all those a going through rough moments in time all over the world, and be with our President, President Elect and all of His presidential elect cabinet, as well as all the world leaders...for we are all one and all need to understand that we are in this storm together...

All this we ask in Jesus Christ's Name, Amen...

Be Blessed
Love, Light and Peace
Tonie

PLEASE PRAY!

This is a request for prayer for YWAM (Youth with a Mission)
missionaries
and their churches in Orissa, India. The request came from Mabel
Hurst, an
associate of HCJB Global. Please read and make this a matter of urgent
prayer.


Dear friends of Good News India

We have never seen anything like this. We knew that Orissa was the
most
resistant and hostile State in India as far as the Gospel is
concerned. And
we brushed off the continuous threats and harassment we faced as we
went
about His work. But none of our staff imagined that they would see
this kind
of carnage.... And it seems to be totally under the radar of the
Western
Media . Let me explain: A militant Hindu priest and 4 of his
attendants, who
were zealously going around the villages of Orissa and 'reconverting'
people
back to Hinduism, were gunned down by unknown assailants in Central
Orissa
last weekend. Immediately the Christians were blamed. The cry rose
up, "Kill
the Christians!" And the horror began... In the past 4 days, we have
first
hand witness to hundreds of churches being blown up or burned and
many, many
dozens of Christian tribals have been slaughtered. For no other
reason than
they bear the name of Christ. Night and day I have been in touch with
our
Good News India Directors spread across 14 Dream Centers in
Orissa--they are
right in the middle of all this chaos. In Tihidi, just after the
police
came to offer protection, a group of 70 blood-thirsty militants came
to kill
our staff and destroy the home. They were not allowed to get in, but
they
did a lot of damage to our Dream Center by throwing rocks and bricks
and
smashing our gate, etc. They have promised to come back and 'finish
the
job.' Our kids and staff are locked inside and have stayed that way
with
doors and windows shut for the past 3 days. It has been a time of
desperately calling on the Lord in prayer.


More police have come to offer protection. In Kalahandi, the police
and some
local sympathizers got to our dream center and gave our staff and
kids about
3 minutes notice to vacate. No one had time to even grab a change of
clothes
or any personal belonging. As they fled, the blood thirsty mob came
to kill
everyone in the building. We would have had a mass funeral there, but
for
His grace. In Phulbani, the mob came looking for Christian homes and
missions.

The local Hindu people, our neighbors, turned them away by saying
that
there were no Christians in this area. So they left. We had favor.
The same
thing happened in Balasore. All our dream centers are under lock down
with
the kids and staff huddled inside and police outside. The fanatics are
circling outside waiting for a chance to kill. Others were not so
fortunate.

In a nearby Catholic orphanage, the mob allowed the kids to leave and
locked
up a Priest and a computer teacher in house and burned them to death.
Many
believers have been killed and hacked into pieces and left on the
road--even
women and children. At another orphanage run by another organization,
when
this began, the Director and his wife jumped on their motorbike and
simply
fled, leaving all the children and staff behind. Every one of our
GNI
directors that I have spoken to said: 'We stay with our kids.... we
live
together or die together, but we will never abandon what God has
called us
to do.' More than 5000 Christian families have had their homes burned
or
destroyed. They have fled into the jungles and are living in great
fear
waiting for the authorities to bring about peace. But so far, no
peace is
foreseen.
This will continue for another 10 days, supposedly the 14-day mourning
period for the slain Hindu priest. Many more Christians will die and
their
houses destroyed. Many more churches will be smashed down. The Federal
government is trying to restore order and perhaps things will calm
down. We
ask for your prayers. Only the hand of God can calm this storm. None
of us
know the meaning of persecution. But now our kids and staff know
what that
means. So many of our kids coming from Hindu backgrounds are confused
and
totally bewildered at what is happening around them. So many of their
guardians have fled into the jungles and are unable to come and get
them
during these trying times.


Through all this, I am more determined than ever to continue with our
goal:
the transformation of a community by transforming its children.
Orissa will
be saved--that is our heart's cry. If we can take these thousands of
throw-away children and help them to become disciples of Jesus, they
will
transform an entire region. It is a long term goal, but it is
strategic
thinking in terms of the Great Commission.



What can you do?

First, please uphold all this in fervent prayer.

Second, pass this e-mail on to as many friends as you can. We must
get the
word out and increase our prayer base for this is spiritual warfare
at its
most basic meaning. We are literally fighting the devil in order to
live for
His Kingdom. The next 10 days are crucial. We pray for peace and calm
to
pervade across Orissa.
Thank you for taking the time to read this. Please pass it on and
help us to
get as many people to partner with us on this cutting edge effort to
fulfill
His mandate: Go and make disciples of all nations... Prayer works!
Blessings, Chip & Sandy Wanner Col 2:2 Team Facilitators to YWAM
