Wide Open Doors in the Midst of a So-Called “Closed Nation” & New Requests


Sometimes I am just in awe of the open doors Dad is providing for His Light to shine.
This month I have had the opportunity to pr*y with many people and families.  I was privileged to be able to share verses and stories of truth.  I got to sit with some broken hearted teenagers, staff working on the field, rehab clients, and people in broken marriages.  I got to counsel each and share the hope and truth in Dad. I got to watch the Father give specific words and proph*etic counsel to families in need. I watched as their faces literally became changed in light of His love. I got to pr*y with people and witnessed Dad break chains and bring long needed deliverance from the demonic to a whole family one night, as well as an individual on another day.
I got to share that Dad is a the good shepherd and he is the ONLY way with one women.  I was able to share with another the power and healing virtues available to us in the Son and seek for healing with another.

I am in awe of the Father.  He is working and it’s a beautiful, beautiful thing.  Watching people find Je$us and $alvation and freedom will never get dull.

New Request:
1. Please ask the Father to give me more open doors with 2 Muz**im families I have been meeting with weekly.  Ramad*an is taking place this month.  As this population seeks their g*od for revelation and purity, I am asking the ONE to bring true revelation and cleansing to their whole minds, souls, and spirits.
2. Ask Him for an elderly women I call Mata Ji (Mother).  I see her almost daily and have opportunities to share love.  She is a strict “guru” leading and training others in the highest forms of Hin*duism.  I am asking Dad for opportunities to share love and that love would win her heart to be open to the ONLY true Love.  Mata Ji has much influence in the community, she could be a powerful guru for the ONE.
3. So much of Hind* and Muz**m ways are infiltrated with truths from Dad, but then twisted with false belief systems.  Pr*y for wisdom when sharing to help cut away the falsehoods and bring light and revelation to belief systems, that ONLY truth would remain.  Pr*y for open eyes to see and know the ONE True King.
4. My new neighbor is coming to the party house with me this coming week. It will be her first time there. She is open to the Father. She and I discussed Dad’s love this week.  Her husband died three years ago and she is now raising two young boys along. (6 and 9 years old).  She is broken and in need of HIS love, care and $alvat*on.  I see her daily, but with my limited Hindi we have “half conversations”. Please pr*y for the Hind*i words that are needed to come faster and smoother so I can share more easily.  She has expressed desire to know more and attend the party house, but our landlord, and her boss, is very anti-DAD.  She has asked me to not tell anyone that she will attend the party house with me.  Please ask with me for her to be protected from the words and expectations of our landlord and community and to pursue Dad despite persecution.

5. 4 teachers at school, and 3 other individuals that I have shared about before are all open and seeking. Pr*y for continued open doors and the spirit to break down every obstacle and bring truth and light.   Their first name initials: K, B, L, A, J, N, S.

The Bhindi or “Tikka” Mark on the Head- What is it?

Image
(Pooja tikka mark) Many westerners have asked me what the Bhindi or red “tikka” mark means or why I am willing to wear it as a Chri$tian. Many people associate this mark with H!nduism. In my contextualization classes we were taught about finding the difference between culture and religion. The scripture is clear that we don’t want to do anything to compromise our Chri$tian faith and values. At the same time the go$pel is full of the liberties that Chri$t brought to us through the cross. We are no longer obligated to religious practices and rituals. Chri$t fulfilled the law. As we work with non-believers we don’t want to make Chri$tianity another religion. We don’t want to make following Chri$t more difficult than it has to be. Following Je$us doesn’t have to mean abandoning culture, it just has to mean abandoning any other faith or practices of that faith. As teachers, we have to help our disciples find this difference as they come to follow the Father more and more. We don

But God...

Every Knee Will Bow And Every Tongue Will Confess Truly everywhere we look is need- physical, emotional, financial, and spiritual. I see the man with elephantitis lift his giant leg to shift his position as he sits on a mat begging for money on the side of the road. I see a woman sitting on a patch of grass on the edge of a busy highway practicing her meditation attempting to find her inner peace. I see a young girl on her way to school stop to touch the street cow and then touch her own forehead in hopes that her Hindu practices will reap the blessing from her god (cow). Simultaneously, I see a shop keeper allow the giant cow to mosey along his street front restaurant; he even offers the cow freshly made roti (bread) as to not offend his “god” passing by. I see another person practicing yoga with all the pristine positions and poses. Her breaths are well practiced, yet her face is stricken with the look of anxiety and distress.  I see a young man who was

The ugliness I sometimes see

Image
We returned home today, August 18th, to the vastly different country that I now call "home". The things I so easily become immune to while living here rage their ugly heads whenever I return. It’s a mini culture shock and re-initiation if you will. I watched from my hotel window as a woman outside bathed her child in brown water. They live in an uncompleted brick shack with holes and a plastic sheet roof that monsoon has mostly destroyed already. Besides the beauty in the color of the scraps of clothes they are wearing there is nothing beautiful to the sight. No running water, no comforts to enjoy- simply day to day survival. My heart broke as I watched her. I looked down to my own sleeping baby tucked away in a nice crib with clean sheets and clean clothes. Sin is a horrible thing! It’s mared the world God created and his original beauty designed. It’s brought sickness, poverty, and brokenness. My heart aches for this woman, and at the same time rejoices in the
