Huge court win lets Trump present ballot evidence, could overturn Nevada result In its first court victory, a Nevada judge has agreed to let the Trump campaign present its evidence that fraud and illegalities plagued the state’s election, enough to reverse Joe Biden's win and set an example for other state challenges.

LET'S PREVENT THIS FROM HAPPENING The current pandemic has impacted, both believers and non-believers around the globe, in every walk of life. As a ministry, we are called to stand in the gap...

RABUNA FI: Victims of abuse from the Lord’s Resistance Army find refuge and renewed hope at a Far Reaching Ministries sponsored tailoring school in Northern Uganda. We are excited to share that the most recent class has graduated. These ladies blessed us and displayed their gratitude by gifting Vicky Bentley with a handmade thank you poster and a rooster. We believe it is essential to build up these woman in Christ and disciple them in the Gospel. Along with spiritual discipleship, these ladies have become proficient in a very practical income generating skill. Each class of tailoring students commit to numerous hours of technical training under the tutelage of a local tailor. This program has equipped hundreds of woman with a skill set, which enables them to provide for themselves. When the droughts comes, when the crops fail, when they are left alone to fend for themselves, these woman will have the ability to sustain their families.

LOVE COVERS: Far Reaching Ministries Aviation team members are leaving the comforts of sunny Southern California tomorrow to share the love of Jesus in Muslim communities located in East Africa. They will be working under the umbrella, LOVE COVERS, FRMA’s uniquely designed evangelical program. For weeks, missionaries and local brothers and sisters on the ground have been tirelessly working to lay a foundation that will open up the doors into the homes of those living in these communities. Our team is bringing these precious people the Gospel grace, discipleship, prayer and tangible love in the way of blankets, mosquito nets, and school supplies. Would you COVER these children and also our team members in prayer? 1) Pray the team stays healthy, as malaria outbreaks have been rampant this year. 2) Pray for open doors into Muslim communities and for a lasting impact on the relationships they foster between missionaries on the ground and the locals. 3) Pray that, no matter what, God gets the glory for every child clothed, every life touched by His love and every soul saved.

We want to forward on to you this message we received from Anne Graham Lotz

April 28, 2015

Dear Reader,

“For then there will be great distress, unequaled from the beginning of the world until now…” - Matthew 24:21

This past Spring, Joel Rosenberg and I taught through the book of Joel as we led a prophecy seminar at The Billy Graham Training Center at The Cove. It was my privilege to give the first two messages that covered Joel 1:1 through Joel 2:17. The impact on me was profound. Both times, when I stepped off of the platform, I knew God had spoken. The messages almost made the hair stand up on the back of my neck. Why? Because God was clearly warning that His judgment is coming on America and it’s going to be ugly. I knew it then, and I know it now.

I believe Jesus is soon to return to take all of His followers to Heaven with Him in The Rapture. While this will be deliverance for you and me, can you imagine the impact on our nation, let alone the world, when suddenly every single authentic Christian disappears? Institutions will collapse. Banks will close. The Stock Market will plunge. Planes will fall out of the sky. Cars will crash on the road. Government in America at every level will disintegrate. Families will be torn apart. In the unprecedented turmoil, our nation will be vulnerable for our enemies to seize the moment and attack us. There will be mass chaos, confusion, fear, grief, despair, anger, threats, danger… judgment.

Just as God allowed the Israelites, His people, to go through three of the ten plagues He sent in judgment on Pharaoh and Egypt in Exodus 6-8, God may allow His people today to go through a time of distress and trouble before the rapture takes place. I believe we are in that time now. I believe it’s time to not just pray. It’s time to cry out to God on behalf of our nation and our world.

MAYDAY! MAYDAY! is an international distress call that signals a life-threatening emergency. And it’s the call to cry out that I am issuing May 15-May 23. These are the nine days between the Day of the Ascension of Jesus and the Day of Pentecost that have Biblically and traditionally been days of prayer and fasting for an outpouring of God’s Spirit.

The purpose of MAYDAY! MAYDAY! is …

• To claim God our Father’s promise of an outpouring of His Spirit in these days following extraordinary signs in the sky …I will pour out my Spirit in those days …The sun will be turned to darkness and the moon to blood before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the Lord. Joel 2:29, 31
• To implore God the Holy Spirit to compel the church to repent of sin and our nation to return to faith in the living God, that times of refreshing may come… Acts 3:19
• To entreat God our Savior for an abundant harvest of souls for His Kingdom in the remaining days. Do you not say, ‘Four months more and then the harvest’? I tell you, open your eyes and look at the fields! They are ripe for harvest. John 4:35
• To delay or soften God’s judgment that is coming on America and on our world. Who knows? He may turn and have pity and leave behind a blessing. Joel 2:13-14

I’m asking you to please partner with me, and invite everyone on your email address list, or who follows you on facebook or twitter, to join us. I will be posting a blog this Thursday, April 30, at http://www.annegrahamlotz.org/mayday/ that will include specific information on how to participate. Please feel free to forward this letter to your constituents or use it in any way that would be helpful.

I will provide a prayer I have written for each of the 9 days to help unite us in one spirit and one voice as we cry out to God. Those who receive the eBlast are invited to sign up for the daily email prayers. Please be assured there is no other agenda to this initiative. This is not about promoting anything or anyone. This is all about calling God’s people together to pray, before it’s too late, and judgment falls on our nation. Please let me hear back from you as soon as possible. Time is short.

Urgently,

Anne

"Then they cried to the Lord in their trouble, and He saved them from their distress." -Psalm 107:19

* One month after Mayday! Mayday! the Supreme Court will make a landmark decision on marriage. And four months after Mayday! Mayday! Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish Feast of Trumpets that many people believe will be fulfilled by the rapture of the church, will take place on September 13-15. Soon after Rosh Hashanah, the fourth blood moon will occur on September 28. The time is critical, and the time is now, to pray!

On the road again!!

We are headed to a women’s outreach. Please pray for Vicky and Emily as they prepare to teach the women, and ask the Lord to prepare the hearts of those attending to receive everything He has for them! May they be doers of the word! Please also lift up Regina and Doreen as this will be their first time participating in a Rabuna Fi outreach.

We covet your prayer!
We will be traveling to an outreach for a men's and women's conference. Please pray that God would prepare the hearts to receive His word and be forever changed! Please pray for those going to teach; ask the Lord to pour out His message through them. Thank you!

Meet some of the precious children who will be visited during the upcoming Love Covers event! Here they are at roll call at their school. We are so grateful we have the privilege of ministering in His name!
Ephesians 5:1-2.

"One thing I guard in my spiritual life is that I not lose the vision of the Majesty on high. I need to understand the God I am worshiping; and when I do, there will be restored in my heart an awesome sense of reverence.
I read in Ezekiel that frightening, awful passage where the Shekinah, which is the shining presence of God, lifts up from between the wings of the cherubim and draws to the altar. The Shekinah glory followed Israel all those years and shone over the camp, reminding them of Jehovah’s presence. The time came when God could no longer tolerate the sin in the camp and pulled out His Majesty and removed the Shekinah glory from the camp.
I wonder how many gospel churches, who by their shallowness, coarseness and worldliness, have so grieved the Holy Spirit that He has withdrawn into the shadows of silence? I never want to come to the place in my life where the Shekinah glory has withdrawn into the shadows of silence . I want to know God in the fullness of His Majesty. I do not want anything in my life to hinder that Majesty in my life"

Prayer Warriors! The warfare has been relentless. Please intercede for us for the release of our container tonight or first thing tomorrow. Praise God, Jesus is greater than anything we face!

Enjoy this post, "Living in the Light of Eternity" written by a fellow servant of the Master.

Whispers Of His Wonder

"My child, the door is open. You shall go through by My grace and in My strength. Never gauge the possibilities of victory by examining your own strength. I am your Life, your Purity, your Wisdom, and your Strength. You have built faith for many years through a knowledge of and confidence in My Word. Now, I say unto you, Put it into operation by WALKING in the path of action. Only in this way can you come into the full possession of your inheritance. It is not for the fearful, this walk of faith— it is for the courageous… even the reckless soul. Move out, and trust Me as you go. Trust not yourself. Lean not on past experiences. Look not to friends for advice and support. Look to ME. It is My work that I am asking you to do, so it is I who will direct you and provide your needs. Give Me your yieldedness, your love, and a pure desire. I will do the rest."
1 CORINTHIANS 16: 9

**Update on Lydia**

Christmas was a very special time for our sweet sister, Lydia. She was always excited to celebrate Christmas with her Christian family. She was blessed as a daughter of the Lord, and she was encouraged by all the gifts and food that was given to her for Christmas, by the Body of Christ in America.

As we reported on Sunday, January 25, Lydia had a massive stroke and fell into a coma. Lydia was found by her nephew the next day in her bed and was rushed to the hospital. She was kept in ICU under 24 hour watch, in hopes she would come out of the coma. Once we reported this, the Church Body came together in prayer for our sister, Lydia.

Yesterday, Lydia, while asleep in the coma, fell into the arms of the Lord. She is now in Heaven, peacefully at home with her Father.

**Important Update**

Our dear sister, Lydia, was found in her apartment today, unconscious. It is not known how long she was in her apartment alone in this condition. The doctors said that she had a massive stroke and she is in ICU, listed in critical condition. The doctors do not know if she will come out of the coma, but they have her under 24 hour watch. Nobody is allowed to see her, not even her relatives. Our team on the ground is reaching out to Lydia’s nephew to find out more details. Lydia has been part of our family for many years and is very dear to our hearts. Please keep Lydia in your prayers. Pray for her full recovery and that the Father will take any pain away and make her at peace.

“Redeeming the Time” Women’s Retreat, Calvary Chapel Nairobi

This last weekend we had the pleasure of having a Women's Retreat for the ladies of the church. The ladies were so excited for days ahead of time to just go away and have a special time with each other and with Jesus. The theme of the conference was "Redeeming the Time". As Vicky taught and we took time to just sit at the Lord's feet I could see that many of the women and even myself were just seeking refreshment. At one point in the first evening we wrote down on paper any burdens, prayers, or struggles we were having. During afterglow and communion each of us put our paper in a jar, to the point the jar was completely full of papers. Right before the end of the evening we went out to burn the papers as a symbol of giving our struggles to Jesus and being unburdened. As I put the last paper from the jar into the fire, I held just the jar. The jar was now empty, and the Lord showed me that is so true of us, until we not only completely give him our burdens and struggles, but allow him to burn them away, only then are we empty and ready to be filled and used. When the jar was full that is all it could be--a vessel full of burdens and struggles, but empty it was now ready to be filled or used. The next day that same jar held a bouquet of roses on stage. God made beauty come out of the ashes, by burning the struggles, the jar was empty to be filled and used to bring beauty. After the conference I felt refreshed, emptied. The Lord did a new refilling and now I am once again ready to be used to bring His beauty to those around me.

Things God revealed to me on my short term missions trip - Dustin Cummings

FRM encouraged me to keep a journal so I could process all that happened spiritually and better share with others. This is an excerpt of a message I sent to my wife:
"I am ready to come home to you and lived out all that God has predetermined for us. All that he would have us be in sheer glory to him. One idea I believe I have learned while serving here is that sudden revelations by God are mostly desired and seemingly scarce. Our walk with him is more so a daily grind. His work being revealed bit by bit. Often when we are not really even seeking it or if we may be seeking something entirely different. Almost as if God adds to His own divine wisdom while we are too busy being mindful of other thoughts wants... After an accumulated amount of time - at that time specified by God alone - the revelation is made known and He gives us our intended purpose.... I expected more or less to have some spiritual breakthrough that was immediate, a highly pronounced vision; but, what I found is simply God in his own perfect way unveiling another steppingstone. He was all the while building my faith, taking me deeper on this march to fight the good fight. Our lives are a simple walk of righteousness in faith... I am inspired to look forward to Jesus saying, 'Well done good and faithful servant!'

Nigerian abducted girls' families fast losing hope of rescue President calls emergency security council meeting over teenagers rounded up at gunpoint despite guard's presence

“The reason why many are still troubled, still seeking, still making little forward progress is because they haven't yet come to the end of themselves. We're still trying to give orders, and interfering with God's work within us. ”
― A.W. Tozer

"...for far too long the Church has evaluated its progress, not according to the standards Christ has set for us, but according to the world’s standards."
David Ravenhill

“If Christian people are the salt of the earth; praying people are the salt of the church.” ~Leonard Ravenhill

“Look closely at the label to see whether the armour you wear is the workmanship of God or not. There are many imitations on the market nowadays. It is Satan’s game, if he cannot keep the sinner satisfied in his naked, lustful state, to coax him into some flimsy thing or other than by itself will neither do him good nor Satan harm. Perhaps it is church attendance, or good works, or some self-imposed penance by which he intends to impress both God and man. Do such impersonators believe in God? Oh, they hope they are not infidels. But what their amour is, or how they came by it, whether it will hold up in an evil day, they never stop to question. Thus thousands perish who supposed they were armed against Satan, death, and judgment—when all along they were miserable and naked. These people are worse off than those who have not a rag of pretense to hide their shame from the world’s gaze.” ~William Gurnall (1617-1679 AD), The Christian in Complete Armour

“When our work for God is lacking in faith, our labor is performed without love, and our perseverance is without hope, then we too have left our first love…’Without first love we may retain ceaseless activity, immaculate purity, severest orthodoxy, but there will be no love shining in a dark place.’” David Ravenhill

“… there are so many who profess Christ and so few who are in fact Christians; so many who go into the field against Satan, and so few who come out conquerors. All may have a desire to be successful soldiers, but few have the courage and determination to grapple with the difficulties than accost them on the way to victory...How many part with Christ at the crossroad of suffering! They profess the gospel and name themselves heirs to the blessings of the saints. But when put to the test, they quickly grow sick of the journey and refuse to endure for Christ. At the first sign of hardship, they kiss and leave the Savior, reluctant to lose heaven, but even more unwilling to buy it at so dear a price. If they must resist so many enemies on the way, they will content themselves with their own stagnant cisterns and leave the Water of Life for others who will venture farther for it. Who among us has not learned from his own experience that it requires another spirit than the world can give to follow Christ fully?”

William Gurnall (1617-1679 AD), The Christian in Complete Armour

“For so great a work he must needs have a helpmeet, and he was to find her when she was still physically as weak and unlikely for the great task as he was, and as entirely severed from all existing organisations. Catherine Mumford, like himself, innocent of any unkind feeling towards her Church, had been excluded from it, simply because she would not pledge herself to keep entirely away from the Reform party.

Unable really at the time to do more than teach a class in the Sunday School, and occasionally visit a sick person, she nevertheless, by the fervour of her action, made herself a power that was felt, and threw all her influence on the side of any whole-hearted religious or temperance effort. The anxiety of both these two young people not to allow any thought for their own happiness to interfere with their duty to God and to their fellows delayed their marriage for years; and when they did marry it was with the perfect resolve on both sides to make everything in their own life and home subordinate to the great work to which they had given themselves.

Excerpt From: George Scott Railton. “The Authoritative Life of General William Booth.”

“O God, I have tasted Thy goodness, and it has both satisfied me and made me thirsty for more. I am painfully conscious of my need for further grace. I am ashamed of my lack of desire. O God, the Triune God, I want to want Thee; I long to be filled with longing; I thirst to be made more thirsty still. Show me Thy glory, I pray Thee, so that I may know Thee indeed. Begin in mercy a new work of love within me. Say to my soul, ‘Rise up my love, my fair one, and come away.’ Then give me grace to rise and follow Thee up from this misty lowland where I have wandered so long.”
― A.W. Tozer

“ to follow Christ is to agree with Him and live according to the standards He has given us to follow. Herein lies the Church’s problem in every age, We agree that Jesus is the Lord; we don’t agree with what He has told us to do – not in the full, true sense that matters, which is to agree with Him by living and doing what He has told us to do."

David Ravenhill
