| Due to the sensitive nature of this ministry, some details, photos and videos have been removed from the below update that was sent to our prayer partners. Prayer Partners: Thank you for your steadfast support! Spiritual Combat Training: Satan has deceived the whole world (1 John 5:19). He has blinded the minds of unbelievers (2 Cor 4:4). Humanity has traded truth for lies and worships created beings rather than the Creator (Rom 1:20-32). The Lord has led to, ‘Teach these kids how to fight Satan’s deception.’ Christ is our best example. After a message on how the Lord defeated Satan with His Word (Luke 4), youth were tested… “sword drill” style. Example Question: Satan (through someone) says, ‘Jesus was just a regular person, maybe a good teacher, but not God.’ Which Scripture is most effective in combatting that lie? A) 2 Corinthians 5:17 B) Philippians 2:10-11 * Competition among youth drives progress. They did really well. Praise the Lord! IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS BELOW RE: “YOUTH TESTIMONY VIDEOS”: The focus of this month’s update is youth testimony videos, which are on Youtube. In Youtube, after clicking on the first testimony video below, PLEASE BE SURE TO CLICK “CC” to turn on English subtitles:  Youth Testimony Share @ Castaway Baptist: Testimony is another effective weapon against demonic deception (Rev 12:9-11). Another adult brother and I led by example, sharing our testimonies. Then, each of our four oldest youth were asked to share their testimonies the following Sunday. The four young men in the videos below have been with us from the 2019 start of the neighborhood youth ministry. Click each video below for their testimonies: Pheaktra’s Testimony Bunrong’s Testimony Piseth’s Testimony Jib’s Testimony PRAISE THE LORD! “And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.” Revelation 12:11 Twins’ Birthday Party: Twins Karona and Rachana (younger sisters of Piseth in the above video) recently turned 11. They have been worshipping the Lord with us since they were about 7 years old. Praise the Lord for their lives!  “For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.” Jeremiah 29:11 Blessings for Faithful Service: Faithful servants of the Lord (youth who attend, step up to lead, clean the church, memorize Scripture and share the gospel) were recently rewarded with a buffet dinner. Praise the Lord!  “I have been young, and now am old; yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread.” Psalm 37:25 Faithful in Evangelism: Sometimes with teenagers, it takes some prodding to get them moving. But from the restaurant to the neighborhood, our youth have been faithful in evangelism. I believe that evangelism is the primary reason the Lord leaves the born-again believer on earth (Acts 1:8). Above all, we must be faithful witnesses. This is why we are here. PRAISE THE LORD JESUS CHRIST!   “And he said unto them, ‘Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.'” Mark 16:15 Online Ministry: “D” (a believer in Spain) reached out again this month for encouragement and prayer. The Lord provided an opportunity to pray with a transgender who reached out from Thailand. Praise the Lord! “But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry.” 2 Timothy 4:5 Any of us could die at any moment.
