This last Sunday July 16, Ja had around 40 children (grades 1-6) in Thai children’s church. She was teaching on the subject of the Kingdom of God and how Jesus instructed His disciples to not forbid the children from coming to Jesus but that the Kingdom of God welcomes the little children to come to Jesus. It was in this context that Ja felt the presence of God and felt an urge in her heart to explain the gospel and invite any of these children that wanted to accept Jesus as Savior and come into the Kingdom of God. God was truly moving in the hearts of these children and eleven (11) of the forty (40) children repented of their sins and trusted in Jesus as their Savior. Wow. The Bible tells us that the angels in heaven rejoice over 1 person who repents and turns to Jesus. Well, it is with great joy that we share with you that not 1, not 2, not 3, but 11 children repented and turned to Jesus and had their names written in the Lamb’s Book of Life this past Sunday.
God is truly moving in the hearts of people in Northern Thailand and we here at Baan Athitaan Church in Chiangrai Thailand have said to our Lord, “Here we are, Lord, use us. We want to join you in what you are doing in the lives of people.”
As you think about missions, please remember Northern Thailand Impact Ministry (NTIM) and all the Christian organizations that are connected with NTIM.
Please also remember to pray for me as a Bible teacher. One of the most important things that I do as the Pastor of Baan Athitaan Church is to seek God’s counsel about what God wants us to Study together on Sunday mornings. I have about 30 minutes every week to speak to our church family. Sometimes we study through a book like we just finished studying through Proverbs. Sometimes we might take a theme and look at that. About 10 years ago, A Bible teacher went through and counted the different subjects Jesus taught on and the counted how often Jesus taught on those subjects. Then he published this information on a post that we are going to use simply to identify the top 16 topics we are going to look at over the next 16 weeks.
Please pray for us as we started this 16 Topic series this last Sunday. Here is a link to the message from this last Sunday which was on the most often taught on subject by Jesus: God.
Here is the youtube link.
