PASTOR NERREN

Pastor Bryan Nerren and Family

Pastor Bryan Nerren was discriminatorily detained in India for over seven months because of his Christian faith, but all thanks and praise to God, the charges against Pastor Nerren were dropped and he flew home to his family, finally, on Monday, May 18th!

First, we give all praise, honor and glory to God for, again, delivering His saints from captivity. An innocent person being held in a foreign country against their will is “captivity.”

Second, thank you, everyone, who prayed for Pastor Nerren for months, nonstop, as we requested in our previous report: https://nowprophecy.wordpress.com/2019/12/16/a-call-for-prayer-4/. The hand of God is moved by the prayers of His saints and He has, again, honored the prayers of those who have faithfully prayed for Pastor Nerren’s release to come home. 


The American Center for Law and Justice (ACLJ) has tirelessly petitioned Members of Congress, and other legislative bodies, and they have worked with local counsel to gain Pastor Nerren’s release. Jay Sekulow and his team have been instrumental in securing many of our religious freedoms in the United States, and they also fight for the freedoms of persecuted Christians in other nations. This nonprofit Christian law firm is essential to Christians in the US and other nations and is well-deserving of our prayers and financial support. If you would like to become a partner in their constant battle for our religious freedoms, please visit the ACLJ website: https://aclj.org/


Pastor Nerren has led a nonprofit ministry in India and Nepal for more than 17 years. The future of his ministry is now uncertain, as these nations have escalated their persecution of Christians in recent years. Please continue to pray for Pastor Nerren’s safety, and those who work with him, as they continue ministering in India and Nepal.

Our God, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, is a prayer-answering God! Hundreds of Bible prophecies have been fulfilled and thousands upon thousands have been healed by the miracle-working hand of our God!

Can you Hindus say the same? Can you Muslims say the same? Can you, who serve any other god, say the same? Why not come to the God who delivers, saves, loves you, has promised those who love Him eternal life, who performs miracles and fulfills the prophecies given by His people throughout generations?

Either come to the Living God, the One who has proved Himself to His people throughout the ages, or continue to serve your dead idol, who is unable to give you anything, because it only exists in your mind; but worse yet, will lead you straight into hell fire after this life, because the Word of the Living God says all will stand before the judgment seat of God and idolaters will all be cast into the lake of fire to burn there forever, because they denied the One and Only True and Living God, and refused to accept the sacrifice of His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ, who paid the penalty for your sins, so you could enter heaven, if you will only believe.

“The Great White Throne Judgment

“Then I saw a great white throne and Him who sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away, and there was found no place for them. And I saw the dead, small and great, standing before God, and books were opened; and another book was opened, which is the Book of Life. And the dead were judged according to their works, by the things which were written in the books. The sea gave up the dead who were in it, and Death and Hades (Hell) delivered up the dead who were in them, and they were judged, each one according to his works. Then Death and Hades were cast into the lake of fire; this is the second death, and anyone not found written in the Book of Life was cast into the lake of fire” Revelation 20:11-15

“But the fearful, unbelieving, abominable, murderers, sexually immoral, sorcerers (original Greek – pharmakeia – those who sell/use drugs), idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death” Revelation 21:8


Please continue praying daily for the following saints who are still held captive:

LEAH SHARIBU 

Leah Sharibu, abducted at age 15

Leah Sharibu

Leah Sharibu was kidnapped with 110 other schoolgirls in Nigeria by the Muslim terrorist group Boko Haram on February 19, 2018. The terrorists killed five of those girls and released 104, once they renounced their Christian faith, but they are still holding Leah Sharibu, because she refuses to renounce her faith in Jesus.

*Six more Christian girls have been kidnapped in Nigeria by Boko Haram and they too need our urgent prayers daily.


YOUSEF NADARKHANI AND FAMILY.jpg

Pastor Nadarkhani and his family

Pastor Youcef Nadarkhani

Pastor Youcef Nadarkhani was previously arrested and sentenced to die for his Christian faith, “apostasy,” but after much prayer and public outcry, Nadarkhani was acquitted and released from prison, after having spent nearly three years in prison. Pastor Nadarkhani was arrested again on July 22, 2018. Iranian forces raided his home, beating him in front of his family, and they even tasered one of his young sons when he answered the door. Only a Muslim terrorist would taser a young boy, an innocent boy, who simply answered the door! We need another miracle for Pastor Nadarkhani. God delivered him before and He will deliver him again! We have to pray daily, saints.


PASTOR JOHN CAO 

Pastor John Cao

Pastor John Cao, a US citizen from North Carolina, was doing charitable work in China, when he was arrested and sentenced to seven years prison for his Christian faith. Pastor Cao’s health is deteriorating and he has already lost at least 50 pounds; he could potentially die in China’s harsh prison environment, unless God delivers him. He shares a cell with 12 inmates which is furnished with only one bed!


BOB LEVINSON 

Bob (Robert) Levinson

Bob Levinson was arrested in Iran in 2007 and has been held by the terrorist regime since that time. He is an American citizen and he was taken into custody while working as a private investigator. Iranian officials interrogated Levinson in 2007, but have since denied knowing his whereabouts. I am not aware of Bob Levinson’s religion/faith, but he and his family need our prayers.

All of these desperately need our prayers; please pray for them daily.

The Word of God tells us,

“All these are the beginning of sorrows; then they shall deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you, and you shall be hated of all nations for My name’s sake” Matthew 24:8-9

“There should be no schism in the body (body of Christ, the Church), but the members should have the same care for one another. And whether one member suffers, all members suffer with him; or if one member is honored, all members rejoice with him. Now you are the body of Christ and members in particular” 1 Corinthians 12:25-27


julian-assange-a-national-hero

Julian Assange

Julian Assange took political asylum in the Embassy of Ecuador in London in 2012, as he fought legal persecution from Sweden and the United Kingdom for his part in exposing criminals on the internet, most importantly high profile pedophiles in the United States, and Hillary Clinton’s crimes; albeit Sweden claimed they wanted him on a rape charge, which has since been dropped. After nearly seven years in asylum, the Embassy of Ecuador handed Assange over to London police in April 2019, where he has remained in solitary confinement and in ill health. The UK pedophile nation is, bottom line, torturing Assange in the HM Prison Belmarsh, for exposing pedophiles and Hillary Clinton’s crimes. Seth Rich died with a gunshot to his back on a Washington, DC, street for exposing Hillary; that’s what they would really like to do to Julian Assange! Please pray with me for his vindication and release. I have no idea of his religious affiliation, so we should also pray for his salvation, in the event he hasn’t received Christ as his Savior. No one should suffer the torture he has endured for eight years for exposing pedophiles, the worst scum on earth who need to be executed for their crimes, or for exposing the crimes of Hillary Clinton, next to the worst scum on earth, if not for her treasonous acts, for the slaughter of the unborn and those babies born alive! 

Salvation is offered to everyone who repents of sin and receives Jesus as their Lord and Savior, unless a person crosses a line with God, to the point of becoming reprobate, having no conscience (Romans 1:21-32; Hebrews 6:4-6). Now is the time of salvation for everyone; tomorrow, or even the next hour, could be too late.

Hundreds of Bible prophecies have been fulfilled and those remaining shall surely come to pass. Are you prepared to stand before God and give an account of the life you have lived on this earth (Revelation 20:12-15)? If not, salvation is only a prayer away. Please visit the How Can I Be Saved page – your eternal destiny depends on it. God bless you.

“The Spirit and the bride say, Come; and let him who hears say, Come; and let him that is athirst come, and whosoever will, let him take of the water of life freely” Revelation 22:17

BREAKING NEWS: Asia Bibi’s Death Sentence Overturned By the Supreme Court!

Please be advised that WordPress includes advertisements on this site; they are not selected by Bible Prophecy

ASIA BIBI 2

Screen shot: YouTube.com – Asia Bibi

I received an email from the American Center for Law and Justice (ACLJ – aclj.org) today, informing me that the Supreme Court of Pakistan just overturned the blasphemy conviction and death sentence (by hanging) for Asia Bibi, a Christian mother of five, who was wrongly convicted of blasphemy and who has waited nine long years for justice!

This acquittal is nothing short of a miracle, in that others had been killed for defending Asia Bibi, and these Supreme Court Justices were under death threats also.

Thank you, Father in heaven, for your faithfulness in answering our prayers for justice and for the life of Asia Bibi!

Thank you, Supreme Court Justices of Pakistan, for doing the right thing, for your just decision. God bless you and protect you!

Muslims are now rioting in the streets of Pakistan; they are blocking traffic, setting tires on fire and threatening to kill Asia Bibi upon her release!

Even though I am excited beyond words for Asia Bibi, and I cease not to give Him thanks, once again, for answering our prayers, we can’t stop praying for her now, saints.

Our all-powerful God, Almighty God and Creator of all things, Who answered our prayers for an acquittal, and moved on the hearts of these judges to make this just decision, will arrange for Asia Bibi and her family’s safe exit; we only need to pray and believe Him.

Please continue to pray daily for Asia Bibi and her family’s safe exit out of Pakistan.

MIRACLE PRAISE REPORTS:

Asia Bibi: Acquitted (faced execution)!

Pastor Andrew Brunson: Released from Turkish prison!

Kim Sang-duk: Released from N Korean prison!

Kim Dong-chul: Released from NKorean prison!

Kim Hak-song: Released from N Korean prison!

Christina Nuh: Taken by ISIS in Iraq, returned to parents!

Meriam Ibrahim: Released from Sudanese prison (faced execution)!

Pastor Saeed Abedini: Released from Iranian prison!

Amir Hekmati: Released from Iranian prison!

Pastor Michael Ruot: Released from Sudanese prison!      

Pastor Peter Reith: Released from Sudanese prison!

Pastor Kuwa Shamal: Released from Sudanese prison!

Pastor Hassan Abduraheem: Released from Sudanese prison!

Gilad Shalit: Israeli soldier released from Gaza!

Pastor Youcef Nadarkhani: Released from Iranian prison * Update: Arrested again, please pray daily for his protection and release

I prayed daily for these, as did many other Christians, while they were incarcerated, held captive, and faced executions. We received miracles in behalf of all of these; 15 out of 15 RELEASED – ALL MIRACLES! What are the odds in that, without God’s divine intervention?

These are all the results of prayer, fasting and faith. God’s Holy Word never fails.

Jesus said,

“Again, I say unto you that if two of you shall agree on earth regarding anything they shall ask, it will be done for them of My Father which is in heaven” Matthew 18:19

Did Jesus ever lie?

I will admit that some don’t receive the answers to their prayers.

First, these promises were made to the disciples (followers) of Jesus, not hypocrites. If you live like the devil, but still pray, or if you live in continuous, unrepentant sin, but still pray, don’t expect to receive answers to your prayers. God might answer you, but He has not promised to do so. *He will always answer the sinner’s prayer of repentance, unless one has crossed the line, become reprobate (Romans 1:21-32; Hebrews 6:4-6).

Second, faith must accompany the prayers:

“Let him ask in faith, nothing wavering, for he that wavers is like a wave of the sea, driven with the wind and tossed. Let not that man think he shall receive anything of the Lord” James 1:6-7

Salvation is offered to everyone who repents of sin and receives Jesus as their Lord and Savior; unless a person crosses a line with God, to the point of becoming reprobate (Romans 1:21-32; Hebrews 6:4-6). Now is the time of salvation for everyone; tomorrow, or even the next hour, could be too late.

Hundreds of Bible prophecies have been fulfilled and those remaining shall surely come to pass. Are you prepared to stand before God and give an account of the life you have lived on this earth (Revelation 20:12-15)? If not, salvation is only a prayer away. Please visit the How Can I Be Saved page – your eternal destiny depends on it. God bless you.

Asia Bibi, Persecuted Saint, Awaits Supreme Court Decision On Death Sentence

ASIA BIBI 2

Screen shots: YouTube.com – Asia Bibi, wife and mother of five

The American Center for Law and Justice (ACLJ) is right now collecting signatures to petition for Asia Bibi, wife and mother of five, whose life hangs in the balance, as the Supreme Court of Pakistan prepares to hand down their verdict on appeal.

Asia’s suffering in Pakistan because of her Christian faith is an outrage! She has languished in prison for the past nearly eight years (seven years and 11 months), after being sentenced to hang for her Christian faith. She is now awaiting a Supreme Court decision on her final appeal, as to whether or not she will hang for her faith!

Please read the following information about her case and current situation, as summarized by ACLJ, and please visit their website to sign the petition in her behalf: https://aclj.org/


After years of delays, seven years and eleven months to the day after she was sentenced to death by hanging for her Christian faith, Christian mom Asia Bibi has finally had her appeal heard by the Supreme Court of Pakistan.

A three-member panel of the Supreme Court of Pakistan consisting of Chief Justice Mian Saqib Nisar, Justice Asif Saeed Khosa, and Justice Mazhar Alam Khan Miankhel heard arguments in Asia Bibi’s case yesterday. Asia was arrested in June 2009 and sentenced to death in 2010 for blaspheming the Prophet Muhammad’s name.

As we have previously explained:

Asia Bibi was convicted . . . under Pakistan’s medieval blasphemy laws and sentenced to death for blasphemy against the Prophet Muhammad after she offered water to a Muslim co-worker who believed Asia had made the water ceremonially unclean by drinking from the same cup.

Since then the Christian mother of five has languished on death row, while her husband and children wait anxiously, praying for a miracle.

While the Chief Justice instructed the media to refrain from reporting details of yesterday’s hearing until the verdict is announced, Pakistani newspapers have published the following.

During a two-hour long argument, Asia’s lawyer, Saif-ul-Malook, raised multiple substantive and procedural errors made throughout the investigation, trial, and conviction since June 2009.

Bibi’s lawyer, Saiful Mulook, [asked] why the June 14, 2009 incident had been reported on June 19, [a delay usually considered fatal to the prosecution’s case].

He also recalled that a case was filed against Bibi by an [Islamic] leader in the village of Katanwala in Nankana Sahib, according to which Asia Bibi had confessed to committing blasphemy.

“What we can conclude from your statements is that the [Islamic] leader himself did not witness the incident as it happened,” Justice Khosa observed during the hearing. “No blasphemous language was uttered in the presence of the [Islamic] leader.”

Asia Bibi’s attorney, Mr. Malook, informed the Court:

Asia Bibi and the two Muslim women had had a heated exchange when the argument broke out, the lawyer told the court. The reason behind it was that the women had refused to drink water from the same bowl as Asia.

He further stated:

“The statements of the Muslim women, Asma and Isma, were found to be contradictory.” He said that “the investigation was faulty and grounded in malicious intent. In such a situation, Section 295-C [one of Pakistan’s blasphemy laws] is inapplicable.”

Responding to Mr. Malook, the Chief Justice of Pakistan (CJP) “wondered whether the assistant superintendent [of] police’s probe into the matter could be relied upon, to which the lawyer replied that police had wrongfully registered the case.”

“The witness testimonies did not state that she had used blasphemous language for the Holy Quran,” he said. “No blasphemous words were used at all. Asia, in her statement, said that she could not even conceive of committing blasphemy,” Saiful Mulook stated for the court.

He added that she respects Islamic education and the Holy Prophet “with all her heart”.

“She simply had an argument with two women. During that argument, they exchanged harsh words,” the lawyer said.

“What kind of incident is this? That you were argued with, harsh words were used for you, and then the case was also filed against you?” the CJP wondered.

“Are you suggesting that it is possible that the person who filed the case — the [Islamic] leader — is acting on someone else’s behest?” Justice Khosa asked. “That he is a frontman and someone else is behind him?”

“It is possible that this is the case,” the lawyer said. He went on to reiterate that the witnesses were “lying”.

The lawyer also informed the bench that Bibi, who is an illiterate woman, was referred to as a Christian preacher in the FIR, when she cannot be considered so.

“This reflects ill-intention [on the part of the complainant],” he added.

After hearing argument by Asia’s attorney, the Court heard the complainant’s attorney.

Ghulam Mustafa Chaudhry, the lawyer representing complainant Qari Islam, argued that Bibi had used blasphemous words regarding the Prophet.

“These [blasphemous statements] are the same words that Christians usually use,” he said.

However, Justice Khosa remarked that it was possible that the blasphemous words that Bibi was accused of uttering were actually made by the lawyer who drafted the complaint against her.

Justice Khosa then repeated his observation that the imam of the mosque [who is the complainant in this case] had not been a direct witness to the incident.

“[However,] he [the imam] later became a crusader [seeking justice],” he said, noting that a mosque imam’s word would be generally respected by locals due to social conventions.

However, the lawyer contended that no malicious intent had been apparent on the part of the prosecution.

But Justice Khosa wondered why each witness had given a different statement on the panchayat [a local village elders’ court where Asia was forced to confess].

“The reverence for the Prophet (PBUH) is part of our faith,” the judge remarked, before asking the complainant’s lawyer to support his arguments with evidence.

He said that “it hurts the entire nation when the accused are acquitted due to technicalities”.

“There is a lot of contradiction between statements given by the people [involved in this case],” the CJP noted.

“Blasphemy is a heinous crime,” he observed. “[But] it remains to be seen whether the allegations [against Bibi] were proven.”

The judge directed the complainant’s lawyer to present evidence based on testimonies. “A lot is being done to defame Islam,” the chief justice said. “All this is being done to incite us.”

The court did not provide any date when the verdict will be announced. Given the religiously-charged atmosphere of the country regarding blasphemy cases, it is understandable that the court would avoid announcing its decision yesterday, especially if it is in Asia Bibi’s favor.

While many people have been murdered over blasphemy allegations, so far the Pakistani government has never carried out the death sentence. We hope and pray that the Supreme Court’s record of overturning blasphemy convictions remains the same. However, if the court upholds her conviction, Asia’s only recourse would be a clemency petition to the President. As you might recall, the late Governor of the Punjab, Salman Taseer, was murdered by his own security guard while Taseer was preparing a clemency petition for Asia.

With that in mind, we hope and pray for God’s wisdom for the justices and mercy and safety for Asia and her family. We ask for continued prayers from our members as we all wait for the verdict. We will continue our constant advocacy for this Christian mother’s freedom.


Jesus told us this would happen,

“They shall put you out of the synagogues; yes, the time will come when whoever kills you will think that he does God a service” John 16:2

Let us be reminded, saints, of what Jesus also said to believers,

“Again, I say unto you, that if two of you shall agree on earth as touching anything that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of My Father which is in heaven” Matthew 18:19.

This is God’s promise to the saints.

Praise Report: These were released when we agreed in prayer:

Pastor Saeed Abedini

Christina Nuh – three-year-old abducted by ISIS, found, returned to parents!

Kim Dong-chul, Kim Hak-song and Kim Sang-duk

Pastor Kuwa Shamal

Pastor Youcef Nadarkhani (needs prayer, arrested again!)

Gilad Shalit

Meriam Ibrahim and her two children in prison

Pastors Michael Ruot and Peter Reith in Sudan

Amir Hekmati

Will you agree with me for Asia?

Salvation is offered to everyone who repents of sin and receives Jesus as their Lord and Savior; unless a person crosses a line with God, to the point of becoming reprobate (Romans 1:21-32). Now is the time of salvation for everyone; tomorrow, or even the next hour, could be too late.

Hundreds of Bible prophecies have been fulfilled and those remaining shall surely come to pass. Are you prepared to stand before God and give an account of the life you have lived on this earth (Revelation 20:12-15)? If not, salvation is only a prayer away. Please visit the How Can I Be Saved page – your eternal destiny depends on it. God bless you.

Julian Assange Faces Eviction from Embassy

FREE ASSANGE.png

Screen shot: YouTube.com

JULIAN ASSANGE FACES EVICTION FROM EMBASSY

Headlines over the last several days read Julian Assange is facing eviction from the Ecuadorian Embassy in London any day now. We don’t know this to be a fact, but it is reportedly developing, and the fact that his internet and phone have been cut since March, except calls from his attorneys, is not a good sign.

Assange and his colleagues have exposed criminals, but have posed no harm to those who are innocent. They have exposed vile pedophiles, child traffickers, who are still walking free, and the utterly wicked and treasonous crimes of Hillary Clinton.

The work of Assange and his colleagues have also helped Christians and conservatives stay on the internet, who would otherwise have been censored.

Julian Assange needs our prayers, friends.

We prayed daily for three-year-old Christina Nuh, an Iraqi child taken by ISIS terrorists. Christina’s mother, Aida, who is a Christian, publicly proclaimed, “Jesus can bring her back.” Christina was returned to her parents after three years by the great, miracle-working hand of God!

We prayed daily for the release of Kim Dong-chul, Kim Sang-duk (Tony Kim) and Kim Hak-song from North Korean prisons, which appeared to be an impossibility in the natural realm, but they were released because all things are possible with God!

God has answered many other prayers, such as those prayed daily for the release of Youcef Nadarkhani, Meriam Ibrahim, Saeed Abedini, Gilad Shalit, Pastors Michael Ruot and Peter Reith, Pastor Kuwa Shamal, Amir Hekmati and Pastor Hassan Abduraheem, until we witnessed the freedom of each one!

Please pray for Julian Assange, that God will provide his freedom out of the hands of those who would actually like to see him, and his colleagues, dead (some who have already paid that price), because they expose abominable crimes.

Has anyone noticed the difference between the treatment of treasonous Chelsea Manning, who released classified US military documents to Wikileaks – and walks free, versus the threats waged against Julian Assange by US officials? The DC pedophiles really like transgenders and they help boost their depopulation agenda too!

CHELSEA MANNING

Assange, to my knowledge, is not a Christian, but he has been used of God to uncover a lot of evil, so we need to pray for his salvation, in the event he is not saved, and for his freedom.

The Word of God tells us,

“…The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much” James 5:16.

Jesus said,

“I say unto you, if two of you agree on earth, as touching anything they ask, it shall be done for them of My Father which is in heaven” Matthew 18:19.

God doesn’t always answer immediately; in fact, He doesn’t provide an immediate answer in most cases. He allows our faith to be tested. Sometimes, things even get perilous, before a miraculous answer is given; albeit, God is always faithful.

Julian Assange has already waited a long time, six years, but I have been praying for him a while now. Will you agree with me in prayer and take part in the next miracle?

Hundreds of Bible prophecies have been fulfilled and those remaining shall surely come to pass. Are you prepared to stand before God and give an account of the life you have lived on this earth (Revelation 20:12-15)? If not, salvation is only a prayer away. Please visit the How Can I Be Saved page – your eternal destiny depends on it. God bless you.


During the persecutions of Protestants by the Roman Catholics in Germany, a most bloody tragedy occurred at Magdeburg in the year 1631. Generals Tilly and Pappenheim, having taken the Protestant city by storm, upwards of twenty thousand people were slain during the carnage, without distinction of status, sex or age; and six thousand were drowned while attempting to escape over the River Elbe. The remaining inhabitants were stripped naked, severely scourged, had their ears cropped and being yoked together like oxen were moved into the river to drown – all in the name of God (the god of Catholics, who is Lucifer)!

Excerpts taken from Fox’s Book of Martyrs – Zondervan Publishing House (1926)

A few hundred years ago, Fox’s Book of Martyrs was chained to every pulpit, alongside the Holy Bible. I suppose people decided to turn their heads away from such violent crimes and become more “dignified.” We dishonor those who suffered by burying their testimonies and martyrdom. It also seems most churches today are too “dignified” for the Holy Spirit and fire, Who fell on the apostles of the early church (Acts 2)!

The Catholic Church has never issued an apology for the crimes committed during the Inquisition and the brutal torture and murders of Protestant Christians, who denounced papal authority, denied Purgatory, the selling of indulgences in sin, the worship of idols, and prayers to the saints and the Virgin Mary. Neither has any reparation been made to the heirs of the saints who suffered such vile persecutions from the Catholic Church. Protestants were brutally murdered by Catholics by way of burning them alive at the stake, flaying alive, hangings, cutting them to pieces, burying them alive, drowning, torturing them on the rack, whereby bones were broken and bodies ripped apart, beheading them, etc… The property and assets were seized of those heinously murdered by the Catholic Church from about the Twelfth Century through around the 1820s, not that long ago. The Vatican sits atop the blood of the saints. Revelation 18 describes her brutal end for heresies and having committed such abominable crimes.

“And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that you be not partakers of her sins and that you receive not of her plagues” Revelation 18:4.

God is calling His sincere believers to come out of the Catholic abomination, before it’s too late!

Breaking: Three American Christians Released from N Korean Prisons!

BREAKING: THREE AMERICAN CHRISTIANS RELEASED FROM N KOREAN PRISONS!

Early this morning, three American Christians were released from North Korean prisons, Kim Dong-chul, Kim Sang-duk (Tony Kim) and Kim Hak-song; and are returning to the United States with Secretary of State Mike Pompeo!

As President Donald Trump planned to meet North Korea’s leader Kim Jong-un, he focused on gaining the release of the three persecuted Christians, Americans languishing in North Korean prisons simply for their Christian faith.

President Trump tweeted this morning:

TRUMPS TWEET

The three American Christians were released to Secretary of State Mike Pompeo after his arrival in Pyongyang, North Korea, early this morning. He is also deserving of our gratitude for securing their release.

THANK YOU, GOD, FOR HEARING AND ANSWERING OUR MANY PRAYERS!

THANK YOU, PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP!

This is a glorious victory for the three imprisoned Christians, who likely would have languished and died in prison had it not been for the God-ordained intervention by President Donald Trump! Their release is the answer to the many prayers of God’s saints going up daily for the three persecuted saints.

President Donald Trump has made every effort to see the American Christians released from the horrid conditions they suffered in North Korean prisons and those efforts paid off. President Trump keeps his promises and he has worked tirelessly for such causes since his inauguration.

God bless President Donald Trump!

The release of the three Christians from North Korea, the worst nation in the world for Christian persecution, is nothing short of a miracle. I posted requests for prayer for them on this and other websites and I have prayed daily for them, along with many other saints. God answers the prayers of His people!

We are so grateful to God for answering our prayers for these three persecuted saints, and God has been faithful to answer many other prayers, as documented below on an earlier report Overcomers By the Word of Our Testimony:

OVERCOMERS BY THE WORD OF OUR TESTIMONY

Throughout the years, on this and other websites, I have requested prayer for those in bonds. We often hear of prayer requests, and we pray, although less frequently do we hear about the answers to many of our prayers.

The Lord laid it on my heart to share the testimonies of these, whom the Lord has delivered from bonds, in direct answer to the prayers of the saints:

Gilad Shalit – Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) Sergeant First Class abducted and taken prisoner by Hamas to Gaza 6/25/06; released by prisoner exchange – by the miracle-working hand of God 10/18/11!

Pastor Youcef Nadarkhani – Christian pastor arrested in Iran 10/2009; sentenced to death by hanging for “apostasy” (for his Christian faith) 11/13/10; released by the miracle-working hand of God 9/8/12!

Meriam Ibrahim – Christian mother arrested in Sudan 8/2013; sentenced to 100 lashes and sentenced to death by hanging for “apostasy” (because of her Christian faith) 5/15/14; released 6/24/14; rearrested 6/24/14; released (second and final time) by the miracle-working hand of God 6/26/14!

Pastor Saeed Abedini – American Christian pastor arrested in Iran 7/2012; sentenced to eight years for creating Christian churches and “compromising national security” on 1/27/13; released after three years by the miracle-working hand of God 1/16/16!

Amir Hekmati – American Veteran arrested in Iran 8/2011 for allegedly spying for the CIA; sentenced to death 1/9/12; sentence overturned 3/5/12; later sentenced to 10 years; released by the miracle-working hand of God 1/16/16!

Pastors Michael Ruot and Peter Reith – Christian pastors arrested (Michael on 12/14/14; Peter on 1/11/15) in Sudan for “blasphemy;” released by the miracle-working hand of God 8/5/15!

Pastor Kuwa Shamal – Christian pastor arrested in Sudan for his faith 12/18/15; released 12/21/15; rearrested 5/24/16; released by the miracle-working hand of God 1/2/17!

To God be all the glory for the release of these!

The Word of God says,

“They overcame by the blood of the Lamb (Jesus) and by the word of their testimony, and they loved not their lives unto the death” Revelation 12:11.

I published a call to prayer on 12/10/15 for the release of Christian Pastor Saeed Abedini, American Veteran Amir Hekmati, American Bob Levinson and Christian mother Asia Bibi. After 37 days, on 1/16/16, Pastor Saeed Abedini and Amir Hekmati were released! Pastor Abedini had been in prison more than three years, and Amir Hekmati over four years. This demonstrates the power of the collective prayers of the saints! We need to continue praying for Asia Bibi and Bob Levinson!

The Word of God tells us,

“Confess your faults to one another and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much” James 5:16.

“You have not chosen Me, but I have chosen you and ordained you, that you should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain, that whatsoever you ask of the Father in My name, He may give it to you” John 15:16.

There are still those in bonds who need our continued prayers daily:

asia-bibi-sentenced-to-death
Asia Bibi – Christian mother arrested 6/2009 and sentenced to death by hanging in Pakistan for “apostasy.” *Asia Bibi’s appeal hearing has finally been granted. She needs our immediate fervent prayers now.
bob-levinson-4

Bob Levinson – American abducted in Iran 3/9/07.

pastor-hasaan-abduraheem

Pastor Hassan Abduraheem – Christian pastor arrested 12/18/15 in Sudan for his faith and faces the death penalty. *Update: Released! Thank God, praise God!

pastor-andrew-brunson

Pastor Andrew Brunson – Christian pastor arrested in Turkey 10/2016 for his faith (on trumped-up charges of “membership in an armed terrorist organization”).

We sometimes hear of the names and plights of others who need our prayers. When their names cross our path, we need to pray for them.

Yes, there are many, many others that need prayer, but God will give the names of those we do not hear about to other Christians who will pray for them.

How do we keep up with all of the prayer requests? Personally, I print the names and stories of many people I have prayed for at least once, then I place their prayer requests on my makeshift “altar” before God. I may not call their individual names out every day, but I pray over them collectively every day, laying my hands upon the requests. This is one method of prayer, but the important thing is to pray in the manner God leads you to pray.

Prayer changes things, friends!

When Herod put forth his hand to vex the church, he killed James, the brother of John. He proceeded further to kill Peter also and the Bible tells us,

“Peter, therefore, was kept in prison; but prayer was made without ceasing of the church unto God for him…And, behold, the angel of the Lord came upon him and a light shined in the prison and he smote Peter on the side and raised him up, saying, Arise up quickly, and his chains fell off from his hands. And the angel said unto him, Gird yourself and bind on your sandals, and so he did. And he said unto him, Cast your garment about you and follow me. And he went out and followed him and did not know that it was true which was done by the angel, but thought he saw a vision. When they were past the first and second ward, they came to the iron gate that led unto the city, which opened to them of its own accord; and they went out and passed through one street and henceforth the angel departed from him” Acts 12:5,7-10.

If you believe in God, do not limit Him. Nothing is impossible for God (Luke 1:37).

“Without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he that comes to God must believe that He is, and that He rewards those who diligently seek Him” Hebrews 11:6.

Hundreds of Bible prophecies have been fulfilled and those remaining shall surely come to pass. Are you prepared to stand before God and give an account of the life you have lived on this earth? If not, salvation is only a prayer away. Please visit the How Can I Be Saved page – your eternal destiny depends on it. God bless you.

‘Those In Bonds’

TORTURED BEATEN ABUSED IN NORTH KOREA

‘THOSE IN BONDS’

The Word of God tells us that Christians will be hated in all nations during the last days. This prophecy has been fulfilled, even in the United States!

Jesus said,

“Great earthquakes shall be in diverse places, famines and pestilences, and fearful sights and great signs shall there be from heaven; but before all these, they shall lay their hands on you and persecute you, delivering you up to the synagogues and into prisons, being brought before kings and rulers for My name’s sake” Luke 21:11-12.

KIM DAVIS IN JAIL
Screen shot: YouTube.com – Kim Davis Rowan County Clerk

When Kim Davis, the Rowan County Clerk, Kentucky, refused to sign marriage licenses for homosexuals, she was arrested and tossed in jail. Who would have thought this could happen in America?

Homosexuals demand services from Christian business owners, such as the owners of bakeries, wedding facilities and bed and breakfast inns, who must refuse to serve them in the capacity they require, or defy God’s commandments and their Christian faith, because the Word of God tells us homosexuality is an abomination in the sight of God,

“You shall not lie with mankind, as with womankind, it is an abomination” Leviticus 18:22.

When these business owners refused to provide services to accommodate homosexual activities, these homosexuals sued the Christian business owners for monetary gain.

Did you ever think a “Christian nation” would fall so low into the gutter, where Christians would not be allowed to keep the tenets of their faith without being sued for large sums of money, or even ending up in jail?

This is your last days “Land of the Free,” folks! It is only going to get worse, until the Lord returns to establish His righteous kingdom on this earth.

In the meantime, Christians all over the world are being persecuted, jailed and killed, and it is a sign of the last days, according to Bible prophecy.

Jesus also said,

“Then (in the last days) shall they deliver you up to be afflicted and shall kill you, and you shall be hated of all nations for My name’s sake” Matthew 24:9.

Let’s not forget those who are in bonds:

“Remember those who are in bonds, as bound with them, and those who suffer adversity, as being yourselves also suffering” Hebrews 13:3.

ASIA BIBI 2
Screen shot: YouTube.com – Asia Bibi

Asia Bibi is a Pakistani mother of five, who has been in prison for more than eight years for her Christian faith. She has a death sentence hanging over her head, which is in the process of appeal, but most of Pakistan (96 percent Muslim) wants her to hang. Two politicians in Pakistan, who spoke against Bibi’s conviction, were assassinated. (Update: Asia Bibi has been set free! God answered her prayers and the many prayers of the saints throughout the world! Praise God Almighty! Thank you, President Trump!)

Three American Christians are imprisoned in North Korea, Kim Dong Chul (serving 10 years), Kim Sang-duk (arrested 4/22/17) and Kim Hak-song (arrested ~May 2017); all in prison for their Christian faith. (Update: Kim Dong Chul, Kim Sang-duk and Kim Hak-song have all been set free and brought back to the US! God answered their prayers and the many prayers of the saints throughout the world. President Trump called for their release and the North Korean tyrant let them go! This was nothing less than a miracle! Praise God Almighty! Thank you, President Trump!)

KIM HAK-SONG 

Screen shot: YouTube.com – Kim Hak-song

Kim Hak-song worked for the Pyongyang University of Science and Technology (PUST), a university founded by evangelical Christians in 2010. The university is funded by Christian churches in the United States and South Korea. Kim is a Christian missionary and US citizen. North Korean officials stated Kim was arrested for hostile acts against the country. Christianity is considered treasonous in North Korea.

KIM SANG-DUK 

Screen shot: YouTube.com – Kim Sang-duk (Tony Kim)

Kim Sang-duk (also known as Tony Kim), the chancellor of PUST, was arrested while trying to leave with his wife on a flight to China. Kim is a Christian and US citizen. North Korea has not released any details since his arrest on April 22, 2017.

KIM DONG CHULKIM DONG CHUL 1 

Screen shots: YouTube.com – Kim Dong Chul

Kim Dong Chul is an American businessman who was operating a business in the commerce area of North Korea, although he and his wife reside in China. Kim, who is a Christian, was detained in October 2015, and was sentenced to 10 years hard labor following a brief trial. Kim is a Christian. He was charged with espionage and subversion.

I am going to share the stories of two others who are being persecuted, who may, or may not be Christians, but they cannot be forgotten. 

BOB LEVINSON 

Screen shot: YouTube.com – Bob (Robert) Levinson

Bob (Robert) Levinson is an American businessman who was abducted in Iran on the Island of Kish in March 2007. Levinson’s family received a video of him in 2010. He pleaded for help from American politicians on the video, saying, “Please help me get home.”

Treasonous, stealthy Muslim, Barack Obama, did absolutely nothing to help Levinson, even while making a monumental deal with Iran to lift sanctions, which released billions of dollars to Iran, and which also allowed their production of nuclear power!

julian-assange-a-national-hero 

Screen shot: YouTube.com – Julian Assange

Julian Assange has taken asylum in the Ecuadorian Embassy in London for the last five and a half years for exposing the crimes of politicians, specifically treasonous acts, and other crimes, including pedophilia.

Julian Assange is a HERO and should be thanked and rewarded greatly for exposing the vile crimes of Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton and many others, all who should be criminally prosecuted, but their crimes are being ignored and they walk free!

In the meantime, Julian Assange is being hunted down like a dog!

This, friends, is our last days “Land of the Free!”

Please include these on your daily prayer lists and pray with me for their safe return home to their families. Let’s also pray for the salvation of Bob Levinson and Julian Assange, in the event they aren’t saved yet.

Hundreds of Bible prophecies have been fulfilled and those remaining shall surely come to pass. Are you prepared to stand before God and give an account of the life you have lived on this earth (Revelation 20:12-15)? If not, salvation is only a prayer away. Please visit the How Can I Be Saved page – your eternal destiny depends on it. God bless you.


The Roman clergy complained to the archbishop of Turn that the Waldenses of the valleys of Piedmont here heretics for these reasons: 1) They did not believe in the doctrines of the Church of Rome. 2) They made no offerings or prayers for the dead. 3) They did not attend Catholic Mass. 4) They did not confess and receive absolution. 5) They did not believe in purgatory, or pay money to get the souls of their friends out of it. Upon these charges, the archbishop ordered a persecution to take place and many fell martyrs to the superstitious rage of the priests and monks. At Turin, one of the Protestants had his bowels torn out and put in a basin before his face. At Revel, Catelin Girard being at the stake, desired the executioner to give him a stone. Girard, looking earnestly at the stone said, “When it is in the power of man to eat and digest this solid stone, the religion for which I am about to suffer shall have an end, and not before,” and he submitted cheerfully to the flames.

Excerpts taken from Fox’s Book of Martyrs – Zondervan Publishing House (1926)

The Catholic Church has never issued an apology for the crimes committed during the Inquisition and the brutal murders of Protestant Christians who denounced papal authority, denied Purgatory, the selling of indulgences in sin, the worship of idols, prayers to the saints and the Virgin Mary. Neither has any reparation been made to the heirs of the saints who suffered such persecutions from the Catholic Church. Protestants were brutally murdered by Catholics by way of burning them alive at the stake, flaying alive, hangings, cutting them to pieces, burying them alive, drowning, torturing them on the rack, whereby bones were broken and bodies ripped apart, beheading them, etc… The property and assets were seized of those heinously murdered by the Catholic Church from about the Twelfth Century through around the 1820s. The Vatican sits atop the blood of the saints. Revelation 18 describes her brutal end for heresies and having committed such abominable crimes.

“And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that you be not partakers of her sins and that you receive not of her plagues” Revelation 18:4.

God is calling His sincere believers to come out of the Catholic abomination, before it’s too late!

A Call for Prayer

A CALL FOR PRAYER

Three American Christians are imprisoned in North Korea, Kim Dong Chul (serving 10 years), Kim Sang-duk (arrested 4/22/17) and Kim Hak-song (arrested ~May 2017).

Screen shot: YouTube.com – Kim Hak-song

Kim Hak-song worked for the Pyongyang University of Science and Technology (PUST), a university founded by evangelical Christians in 2010. The university is funded by Christian churches in the United States and South Korea. Kim is a Christian missionary and US citizen. North Korean officials stated Kim was arrested for hostile acts against the country. Christianity is considered treasonous in North Korea.

Screen shot: YouTube.com – Kim Sang-duk (Tony Kim)

Kim Sang-duk (also known as Tony Kim), the chancellor of PUST, was arrested while trying to leave with his wife on a flight to China. Kim is a Christian and US citizen. North Korea has not released any details since his arrest on April 22, 2017.

Screen shots: YouTube.com – Kim Dong Chul

Kim Dong Chul is an American businessman who was operating a business in the commerce area of North Korea, although he and his wife reside in China. Kim, who is a Christian, was detained in October 2015, and was sentenced to 10 years hard labor following a brief trial. Kim is a Christian. He was charged with espionage and subversion.

American citizens have generally been released back to the US after being detained, according to a Fox News report, but that has changed.

American citizens should not travel to North Korea, which is run by a vicious dictator, Kim Jong-un. The risks are great, but Christian missionaries continue to evangelize there for the sake of winning lost souls to Christ.

Jesus said,

“Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted and shall kill you, and you shall be hated of all nations for My name’s sake” Matthew 24:9.

Several weeks ago, I entered the names of four US citizens held in North Korea on my Daily Prayer List.

Screen shots: YouTube.com – Otto Warmbier

The fourth person I placed on my prayer list was Otto Warmbier, a 22-year-old college student who was arrested in 2015. He was sentenced to 15 years of hard labor in 2016 for taking a propaganda sign at a hotel he was staying in. Warmbier was released to the US only a few days ago, but he has been in a coma for the last year, according to North Korean officials. They announced he was released for “humanitarian purposes.” I believe it was because of the prayers of God’s people. President Donald Trump communicated with North Korea for Warmbier’s release, something Barack Obama never did.

Please pray for Otto’s recovery, which would be a divine miracle because of his current vegetative state, and the release of these three Christian men still held in North Korea. God is our Creator, He can do anything!

The Word of God tells us,

“…The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much” James 5:16.

God also said about His beloved saints,

“He shall call upon Me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him and honor him” Psalms 91:15.

You may already have a lot to pray about, but God will hear even a few words of prayer for these “in the name of Jesus” (John 14:14). They need not be lengthy prayers, only sincere, from the heart.

Hundreds of Bible prophecies have been fulfilled and those remaining shall surely come to pass. Are you prepared to stand before God and give an account of the life you have lived on this earth? If not, salvation is only a prayer away. Please visit the How Can I Be Saved page – your eternal destiny depends on it. God bless you.
