We are blowing the trumpet to sound an alarm, a call for the Body of Christ around the world to rise up and come alongside the Church in the Philippines at this critical hour. The Philippines are facing great peril and great opportunity in the natural and in the spiritual.
This winter the rainy season has hit the Philippines with devastating results. Throughout the nation hundreds have been killed as a result of heavy flooding and massive mudslides that have destroyed roads and even buried entire villages in some instances. We have received emails from our Filipino Director that the mountains of Mindanao have been hit hard. Many of our families have lost everything and are living in refugee camps. Some areas are completely cut off. Construction on our first community center in Melale has been halted because roads have been made totally impassible by huge mudslides and streams that have become raging torrents. Thousands of families in the mountain areas are totally cut off from food supplies and safe drinking water. Once transportation can be restored, the need for food, clothing, and other supplies will be immediate. As never before, we need to cry out to God on behalf of our Brothers and Sisters in Christ that He will sustain them until we can reach them with practical help.
What is going on? There is an intense spiritual battle being fought in the heavenlies over the Philippines. Demonic princes that have kept the people in bondage to idolatry and witchcraft for thousands of years are in a panic as they see the Church in the Philippines coming into unity and prevailing in prayer to see the glory of God poured out and the Kingdom of God established in their nation. What happens in the natural is often a reflection of what is happening in the spiritual. God is pouring out Revival on the Philippines in torrential proportions and the demon spirits trying to hold back the floodtides of spiritual breakthrough are desperately trying to hold on to their power by bringing death and destruction wherever they can find an open door.
This is a call to press in to the Holy of holies in prevailing prayer for our suffering Brothers and Sisters in Christ on Mindanao and throughout the Philippines. Pray that God will surround and protect them. Pray that a raging river of revival will sweep the nation, destroying demonic strongholds on every side. Pray and ask God what He wants you to do in practical terms to help our Brothers and Sisters. Pray for us as we go the end of March to meet with leaders to plan long term recovery efforts. Please send a generous gift today so we can buy rice, building materials, medicines, and other supplies for our Brothers and Sisters as they try to rebuild their shattered lives. Our immediate goal is $10,000. More may be needed later. Please help us reach out to these desperate people.
The battle for the spiritual future of the Philippines is raging. Hear the trumpet call and join us in prevailing prayer and financial support as we stand with our Brothers and Sisters in Christ on the front lines for the Kingdom of God in the Philippines.
