“Immediately” her bleeding stopped!
Last time I wrote to you, I was on my way to Poland to meet with fleeing Ukrainian Jews. I heard many traumatic stories. Several of them had lost loved ones, some of them had husbands in the army, or Yanick, a single mother with 2 small children from Kharkov, a city getting hit every day. They had nothing at all. Helping them flee, giving them sanctuary in Poland, then helping them to Israel, is the best thing we can do. Several of them told me, “We are fleeing from one war to the next, but at least we know we’re safe in Israel.” In fact, because Prime Minister Zelenskyy is a Jew, they told me they’re afraid that what’s happened over and over again throughout history will happen in Ukraine; that the Jews will end up getting blamed for the war.
My second trip, the crusade on the border between Congo and Zambia, was a battle. So much spiritual resistance and so many problems! But we eventually had a powerful breakthrough on Saturday night, and then Sunday was incredible. When Jesus comes, something happens to everybody! One of the many miracles was very special. Do you remember the woman with the issue of blood from the Gospels? She had been sick for 12 years, nothing had helped, until the moment she touched the hem of Jesus’ garment in faith. Now the same thing happened at the crusade.
The woman had been bleeding daily for more than a month and nothing helped.
Poor people don’t have money for a doctor, so her very life was bleeding out of her. She had lost a lot of weight and was very weak. She came, bleeding, to the crusade on Saturday night. When I prayed from the stage and the power of God went forth, Jesus came upon her. Her entire body started to shake, and “immediately” her bleeding stopped. To make sure, she waited until the next day before coming up to tell us what Jesus had done in her life the previous night.
Now the fight continues. It’s not over till it’s finished! Sometimes we’ll face problems and opposition that cause us to want to give up. But it’s not over till it’s finished! Jesus is the Alpha and Omega. You might feel like “I can’t take it anymore” or “now it’s all over,” but no it’s not! Because Jesus is the very end! He is the Omega, and as long as Jesus hasn’t said that it’s over, then it’s not finished. That’s why we’re drilling wells, helping Jews home to Israel, starting orphanages, praying for the sick, casting out demons, building hospitals and churches. These people thought it was all over, that they would have to suffer for the rest of their lives. But it’s not over till it’s finished, and now we continue the fight. We’re drilling 2 new wells, helping Jews flee from Ukraine, making quarterly payments to pastors, orphanages and all of our projects. So we really do need all the help we can get. We thank Jesus for you, your prayers and gifts. We’ll never give up! Thank you for your gift this month, it’s prophetic because it is going to everything that Jesus is doing right now.
Thank you for your gift this month. It is so incredibly valuable.
In the love of Christ,
Pastor Tommy Lilja
We do what we are – together we are fighting human trafficking!
Today we have an amazing team working on the border between Nepal and India. They are monitoring the busses headed to India, visiting villages with information, and influencing the authorities. Whatever they can do to rescue as many as possible. This year, 2024, we have already helped 60 girls, and right now 20 of them are getting training as seamstresses.
One of the girls was Punam, 15 years old, very poor, she came in contact with an unknown man who was on his way to smuggle her across the border into India. We found her at the last moment, at the bus station on the border to India.
Another one was Puja, 15 years old. She was married off at the age of 13. Her husband promised her family that Puja would have a better life. But then she was taken to India, tortured, rape, and sold as a prostitute. After 2 years she managed to escape, which is extremely rare. Once she crossed the border back into Nepal, someone told her about our ministry, and now she is in our care.
The cost for saving one girl is about 50 USD/GBP per month.
