Pursuing Intimacy With God: Gold Refined in the Fire  

 

  • Revelation 3:18 “I counsel you to buy from me gold refined in the fire, so you can become rich. …”
  • Philippians 3:8 “What is more, I consider everything a loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have lost all things. I consider them garbage, that I may gain Christ”
  • Isaiah 4:3-4 “Those who are … recorded for life … will be called holy. The Lord will wash away the filth of the women of Zion …”

Dear Abba Father,

We want to thank You and praise You for loving us so much that You desire to teach us about “gold refined in the fire” during our time of prayer and fasting. We ask You to prepare our hearts to learn this important lesson. The Bible says: I counsel you to buy from me gold refined in the fire, so you can become rich.” As we ponder what kind of gold would make us rich, You show us that only gold refined in the fire can produce attributes of God in us, just like those of Jesus, full of compassion, kindness, righteousness, justice and truth. Oh Father, how You love us and desire that when Jesus appears You will find us worthy of praise, glory and honor. Oh, give us grace that we would grasp the Word of God to be our strength during the refining. Help us be doers of the Word and not just hearers only, and help us discern which of our lives does not align with the ways and will of God. Also in the process of refining, we want to count everything as loss and rubbish so that we may gain Christ and to be like HimOh Abba Father, thank You for using the refining fire, the Spirit of righteousness, and the Spirit of burning to remove our filth in order that we become holy and glorify Your name!

In the name of Lord Jesus we pray, Amen!

Nation / Global Critical Event: Pray for Brunei – Revive and Transform Brunei Into Destiny 

【Current Events:  Even though Brunei is a small country adjacent to Malaysia and Indonesia with a 400,000 population and a small land, it has become one of the world’s richest countries, due to the abundant crude oil and natural gas.

The Sudan Is In Control:  Brunei is one of the few monarchy in the world, and the power is in the hands of the Sudan, who is highly respected by the Brunei people. He considered himself as a defender and guardian of the Malay nation and Islam, and implemented a system of mixed Malay and Islamic cultural values ​​called the Malay Islamic Monarchy (MIB) to rule Brunei. In 2014, the first phase of the Shariah-based Criminal Code came into force – conversion from Islam to other religions can be death penalty or up to 30 years of prison and corporal punishment. In 2018, the authorities began drafting the second phase of the Code, but it has not been completed yet.

Muslim Becomes More Conservative:  Although Brunei’s Muslims are not interested in joining the Islamic State, but like their neighbors, Brunei is becoming more and more conservative, giving non-Muslims less space to live on. The authorities banned the establishment or restoration of non-Muslim worship sites and did not allow public Christian  activities, including the celebration of Christmas.  All students must learn the principles of the Malay Islamic monarchy, and some Christian students are more familiar with this principle than the Ten Commandments. Evangelize to anyone (including non-Muslims) is prohibited in Brunei, and violators may be sentenced to prison or a large fine.  On the other hand, Brunei is actively pursuing Islamic missionary programs. The converter can get the national economic reward, and success in the conversion to Islam, will also be used as focus of the news.

Spies In The Church: Muslim came into faith in Jesus Christ  always face strong pressure to return to Islam. Christian Parents are in a dilemma: to raise children in the faith, but risk children accidentally expose family Christianity.  Muslim family members and neighbors also regularly report  the Christian Muslim and churches to the authorities.  The church (especially the Malay-speaking church) is constantly being monitored, and some congregations even have spies.  Many young Christians have left Brunei or are considering going abroad because the hostility towards them is growing stronger and the prospects for the country’s economy are dim.

Pray for Libya – An Opportunity In War

Background: Libya in northern Africa is the “Gulina” mentioned in many places in the Bible. The Simon that carried the cross for the Lord Jesus is from Gulina, back in the early church, the gospel was quite prosperous in Libya. But after the 7th century, Arabs entered Libya, the church that was already fragile crumbled and most of the people became Sunni Muslims.

Long-Term Wars: The Arab Spring Movement of 2011 caused Libya’s authoritarian dictator Gaddafi to be killed. Libya has since fallen into a civil war situation in which radical organizations have been contending for hegemony. Now, the new government has been established, but the domestic armed forces and the government forces have been in constant conflict with the armed forces.

Spiritual Conditions: Today Libya Arabs are one of the most unreached groups in the world. It is estimated that 28 out of 40 ethnic groups have not heard of the gospel. Sharing the gospel with Muslims is extremely difficult and dangerous under the supervision of the former Libyan government’s secret police. Now that the country is in turmoil, it has brought about a wonderfully opportunity. People’s attitude towards Christianity is changing, showing more openness and more curiosity.

Christians Are Being Persecuted: there are 37,000 Christians in Libya, but they have been living in persecution, killing, and trampling, forcing them to hide their identity. Presently, Libya has become the top five most persecuted Christians in the world. But Libya is one of the fastest growing Christian countries in the world. The gospel message transmitted by the Internet satellite is attracting a large number of people. In addition, long-term wars have caused many Libyans to leave the country, and some have the opportunity to hear the gospel abroad.

Pray for The First Nation : Sequel to “120 Drums” Ministry

【Background: In July of this year, we introduced the vision and ministry of the “120 Drums” of the Grand Chief, Lynda Prince. (Click HERE for details) This week’s Sequel to  “120 Drums” was shared by the first nation leader,  Brian LaBounty.  On September 7th, he went to Oregon State to participate in the “Conquest 2019”   Gathering.  This is his praise report about that gathering:


“Conquest 2019”  was the largest Multi Cultural gathering ever orchestrated in the NorthWest perhaps in the U.S.

It was birthed from a vision of the Lord given the Pastor Victor Alvarizares senior pastor of Fathers House International in Portland Oregon for 20 years. 1 year he had the vision, having never put together a gathering of this magnitude and knowing that finances were a concern prayed and asked the Lord if this gathering was indeed His will that He would show Victor how to proceed and to begin to bring forth funding. He shared his vision with the church leaders during the meeting about 30,000$ was raised and Victor’s conformation of 25,000 was superceded.

This began the journey to gather the Nations. Somewhere along the line he was put in contact with Lynda Prince. Lynda explained the role First Nations have in this end times push and how they have the spiritual authority on the land. She explained the importance of recognizing the host people and honoring them. After the conversation Victor understood the position of First Nations have. With this understanding the vision of the 120 drums was explained. Pastor Victor saw clearly and asked Lynda to come with the 120 drums.

First Nations of North America opened the conference with honoring and protocol of the host tribes of the region thereby opening up the portholes of heaven.

Later on mid morning Lynda introduced the 120 drums and the invitation for the people to participate in releasing the sound. The people were deeply moved by playing the drums. Many reports are still coming in. Later that afternoon another invitation was given for the people to participate, We lined the hallway inside the convention center and played the drums as others went to the streets of Portland to invite people to the evening session (Mathew 22: 9).  In between the afternoon and evening sessions there was a wedding reception upstairs and I witnessed the bride enter the building with her beautiful gown and bridesmaids.

Sunday afternoon there was a report of a highly unusual tornado touch down outside of Portland. We went to Washington for worship Sunday evening and there were reports of over 1250 lightning strikes within 3 hours around the Seattle area. (Click HERE for the news report.)

Praise Father God YHWH for letting me participate in His End time reconciliation and restoration of all things preparing for His return. Glory to God in the Highest.

Pray For Hong Kong: Pray for Young People in Hong Kong 

【Current Affairs: The “Anti-Extradition Bill” protest movement in Hong Kong has exceeded 100 days. Despite the fact that Hong Kong Prime Minister Lin Zhengyue finally announced the withdrawal of the regulations, the movement has long evolved into a universal movement for democracy and freedom. Its long duration, and the large number of participants, the negative consequences of Hong Kong’s political economy and society have caused global concern.

It has been reported that students and people of Hong Kong are even ready to die for Hong Kong. Some have already done it. They firmly believe that only by death can the way to freedom be open. This is the greatest sacrifice that can be made to the native land. We must not forget them. Many students face enormous family pressure, and some of them are even forced to leave their homes, but they insist on fighting at the front line, carrying their own “written will”, they have made up their minds, they understand freedom, and always willing to pay the price , and they choose to take this only way to bring resolution.

Please pray that God will intervene and the glory of God will fall. Only God’s love can save Hong Kong, transform Hong Kong, resolve hatred, give peace, and build a harmonious society. Pray that God will help these young people as they make this fearless sacrifice.

Pray for China:  Pray for Sino-US Trade Negotiations

【Current Events:  In the early 1990s, trade and investment between the United States and China developed quite rapidly. Leaders on both sides began to pay close attention and take action to avoid conflicts and safeguard common interests. Since July 6 last year, the US government has started to impose tariffs on Chinese goods since the beginning of the 301-term investigation. Since the trade war has been going on for more than a year, there have been more than 10 rounds of face-to-face meetings. High-level trade talks have failed to ease trade disputes between the two sides. Faced with the upcoming Sino-US high-level trade negotiations in early October, the two sides have actively created an atmosphere of reconciliation.

China Show Actions of Goodwill: According to reports, China purchased at least 600,000 tons of US soybeans on Thursday (September 12), and the number needed to be shipped by 10 ships, the largest purchase since June this year. Recently, the Chinese side proposed that if the United States postpones tariffs on Chinese goods and relaxes trading restrictions on Chinese telecom equipment manufacturer Huawei, China will increase her purchase of US agricultural products.

The United States Responded By “Delaying Tariff Increases”:  After China continued to show its “moderate” stance, Trump also said in 9/13 that “a temporary trade agreement with China is also within our consideration”, showing a more flexible posture. The Beijing leadership welcomed Trump’s delay in raising tariffs and signaled a willingness to ease tension. Therefore, this week’s practical consultations between China and the United States can push China and the United States to reach a draft of a temporary agreement, which has attracted much attention. People are counting on the next China-US trade conference in Washington in early October.

Pray for Taiwan – Raise Up  Godly Political Leaders

【Current Events: Taiwan is also known as Formosa, which means a land full of the beauty and glory of God. Taiwan is the heart of Asia . God wants to use Taiwan as a pioneer in Asia to prepare the way to send the gospel back to Jerusalem.   However, in recent years, the Taiwan government has reformed various ungodly laws and policies to forcefully promote same sex marriage and to enforce gender sexual orientation education to primary and secondary schools which is evil in the eyes of the Lord.  On May 17 this year,   the Taiwan Legislative Branch forced the legalization of same-sex marriage  and made Taiwan to be the first  country in Asia legalized same sex marriage, which not only violated public opinion, but also deviated from the laws of God.

Raise Up The Church To Go Into The Political Mountain:    “Love Family Alliance” that promoted the anti-same-sex marriage law,  joined with the church and formed a “Stability Of Power” party , to participate in the presidential and legislative elections on January 11 next year, hoping to reverse the same-sex marriage and other ungodly policies, and to transform society.

Revival Testimony:Great Revival of Shandong 

The revival of Shandong and the revivals around China between 1927 and 1937 were collectively referred to as the great revival of the Chinese church. Today in our cry for revival in the church globally, let us take a good look at the great revival of Shandong, it can be an inspiration and motivation for the global church to pursue a revival.

Pastor Charles L. Culpepper born in Texas, USA, (1895-1965) and missionary from Norway Marie Monsen (1878-1962) are two of the main Western missionaries who witnessed the revival of Shandong. This great revival brought about a wonderful impact, it greatly helped the pastor Culpepper in his ministries. For example, the number of students in the seminary has increased from 4 to more than 150; more than 600 middle school girls have made their decision for Christ, and 900 of the 1,000 male students also made the same decision: one church that had only 20 some people, In the ten-day evangelistic meeting had about 100 people gave their lives to the Lord; In another church, there were 203 people who received baptism. In addition, there were many signs and wonders and miracles in the entire revival movement.

The beginning of the Revival: The prelude to this great revival was, the wife of Pastor Culpepper suffered from serious eye problems, and missionary Monsen offered to pray for his wife’s sickness. Pastor Culpepper was very concerned about this because the Baptist Church was not used to praying for the sick. As a result, the next morning, about twenty people went to his house to pray together, and the people present felt as if the electric waves were circulating throughout the body, and everyone that felt a sense of electricity went through their body, in the spirit they felt such a closeness as if they were partaking the Lord’s supper. Suddenly, the wife of Pastor Culpepper was able to remove her glasses and continue to kneel and prayed with everyone. During this time, God seem to have entered the room personally. Everyone prayed and felt that heaven had come to earth. The glory of God filled their souls and spirit. After this prayer, the eye disease of Pastor Culpepper’s wife was completely healed, and no longer recurred. God truly heard their prayers.

Spread of revival

  • Repentance of the broken and contrite heart: The special feature of this great revival was as people got close to God, they naturally and sternly confessed their sins. Some people experienced a fierce spiritual struggle even for the 25 cents that they stole in their childhood, and finally they took action to overcome the struggle. Another teacher, who confessed more than 60 sins to the Lord, and led 18 students to pray for the whole school, they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and was later elected as the head of the mission. Someone because his neighbors refused to pay back a debt, took it upon herself to kill and eat the neighbor’s chicken for pay back, but the Holy Spirit moved her to admit her fault of presumptuous sins, and eventually led the neighbor to believe in the Lord. Whenever people humbled themselves and admitted their unworthiness, God started to move in the meeting, and people begin to acknowledge their sins and repent to one another.
  • Accompanied by signs and wonders: There were many miraculous signs and wonders that people can’t help but marveled by the works of God. The wife of a brethren was paralyzed for 18 years was healed by God. As a result, he resigned from the position of teacher and began to preach the gospel diligently: In addition, a dead woman who was already dressed in her shroud and prepared for her funeral, a new woman believer prayed for her, and the woman who was dead was resurrected. As a result, her whole family and the large group of people in the village all came into their salvation.
  • Breaking the scheme of the enemy: At that time, many people infiltrated into the school and was very organized in their work in the school. One time, a student was laying under the bench of the classroom in great pain, he asked Pastor Culpepper to see him and explained how he was opposing Christianity and how he was resisting God’s salvation in the meeting. But when he began to stand up and prepare to disrupt the meeting, he was suddenly knocked down by a power, he knew that it was from God, and realized and understand that Christianity is true. Also another young person was confessing his sins in great pain, because he had a hatred in his heart, he wanted to kill the Christian students and pastor Culpepper. After he confessed his sin, he completely collapsed and finally accepted Jesus Christ and was born again. After experiencing these things, Pastor Culpepper discovered that “the spies that lurked in the school, including the two that were mentioned, were about eight to ten people, about half of them were saved during the meeting, and the other half left the school, the spy network was completely destroyed, so it is evident to see when confronted with the attack of the enemy, the power and the authority of God will defeat them one by one
  • The manifestation of the Holy Spirit: At that time, the leaders of the Presbyterian Church felt the church’s revival movement “sometimes some of the expression were too excessive, but the whole movement showed the wonderful power of the Holy Spirit.” Some nurses were saved in the hospital, and even the women genitors were filled with the Holy Spirit, they were working and singing and praising the Lord, and every day the sick were saved. Some believers testified in the church, and the congregation mourns and confessed their sins, and seek the infilling of the Holy Spirit. The great revival spreads like fire to all the villages.

 

The climax of the Shandong Great Revival: (1936-1937): It was initiated by a group of women confessing their sins of abortion. It was also the era that Pastor Culpepper and missionary Monsen had experienced together.

  • The situation at home and abroad: In 1936, President Roosevelt proposed a new policy to promote a rapid economic recovery. In 1936, the German dictator Hitler reorganized his armament, and 99% of the German people also participated in the referendum under the supervision of the secret police. As a result, the rise of the totalitarian Germany was created. In 1936, China’s Xi’an Incident occurred on December 12 at the end of the year. In the second year of 1937, the Japanese army launched the 77 Incident on July 7 and launched a comprehensive war against China. .
  • Pagan women confessed their sins: Missionary Monsen came to China from 1907 after Boxer Rebellion, and in 1927 China began to experience revival. She prayed for revival for twenty years. She found that the Chinese church was desolate, with no spiritual life, and realized that it must begin with the reading of God’s Word, and the truth must become practical in life. She and other female missionaries received from Psalm 68:11: ” The Lord gave the word: great was the company of those that published it.” So they began to watch and pray for women believers and hold Bible study classes to teach women believers. One time when “killing the baby” was talked about, suddenly a woman said with amazement: “aren’t we be able to treat our children as we will?” at that time all of the women confessed their sins except for two. For the first time in more than 20 years, missionary Monsen heard the women admitting killing baby is a crime. This was also the first time she saw the Holy Spirit dealing with a group of people.
  • The Great Revival broke out: The experience of that time caused the missionary Monsen not able to fall asleep, and the situation among the students was the same. One sister asked the missionary Monsen why she couldn’t sleep, they not only couldn’t sleep, and they were crying all night! Because God reminded them of many wrong things they had done, they kept on crying and crying out for God’s help. Thank God, the Holy Spirit convict people of their sins, no one can do it! On the last day of the Bible study, missionary Monsen invited the pagan women, and told them that they could come and talk to her in her room if necessary, and everyone arrived together. One of them stood by the door and held the doorknob and said, “I should be the first, because I am too painful, I can’t no longer wait.” One knelt next to the door, with her head to the ground and continuously repenting. After confessing her sins, the woman’s eyes shine with the eternal light, and the tired and aging face now exudes peace from God. Under the light of the Holy Spirit, she was completely saved. She said, “I was like a big robber that was taken to the judge by the police. When I pleaded guilty, the judge not only did not sentenced her to die, but let her in peace.” How wonderful! A woman who originally believed in paganism with the revelation of the Holy Spirit immediately realized the meaning of the “gospel”; a great and quiet peace filled him instantly, and missionary Monsen. During the revival, the village chapel that had been gathering by only more than 30 people and in about 10 day almost 100 people came to know the Lord. After that, the missionary Monsen’s area helped more than 3,000 people to come to know the Lord.

Since 1908, the revival of North China and Northeast China has continued and the revival spread like wide fire, until the Sino-Japanese War of 1936-1937.

We hope that through the history of the great revival of Shandong, can become the inspiration for us individually and for the church today, so that we can regain our strength and rely on the power of the Holy Spirit to diligently work hard to build God’s church and welcome the return of the Lord!
