Courage to Walk His Walk

1/5/2007

We may not see some of you again, and others we may see for a little while longer. But for those of you that we won’t see again soon, thank you for loving us and caring about Truth. You could have been in a lot of places other than in this room. It took some courage to be in this room, just as it’s taken some courage to walk the walk of Jesus. We all know it is not a game. The closer you get to what Jesus wants for your life, the more satan will oppose you; he will try to kill you and sweep us off the earth because we’re his enemy, and we’re taking his kingdom away from him.

The closer we get to Jesus, the more satan is going to hate us. So we compliment you for wanting to know things that bring you closer to Jesus and that will bring you more opposition from satan. We respect you for your desire to walk Jesus’ way. He said, “If they hated me, they will hate you.” You’ve accepted that promise, and you’ve counted it a privilege to be worthy to suffer for His name. We admire you for persevering and being loyal in spite of all the difficulties that life brings. That’s the heart of Jesus, and we appreciate that. Many people do pray for you, and we appreciate your prayers as well.

Thank You, Jesus, for the brothers’ visit, and we ask that their families back home would be provided for and protected. Thank You for the wonderful truths brought to them and to us. We ask for the protection and grace to walk them out and to just love on Jesus.
