A word for you!

A word for you!

Acts 9:25 AMP
But his disciples took him at night and let him down through the [city's] wall, lowering him in a basket or hamper.

The Rope Holder. ...
The scripture above refers to when Apostle Paul was let down  the wall in a basket and rope because the Jews plotted to kill him because from being a christian persecutor he became a devoted follower of Christ. Does this relate to any situation around the world now? Yes it does.
There are many Christians living in fear all because of their faith, I watched a video sometimes last week about some chinese christians that are getting a copy of the Bible for the first time in their life. They believed even without a hard copy of the scripture.  Many of us have like minimum of two Bible some have turned it to pillow support, some use it only when they are in church. Whereas some people thirst to hold a copy. We are meant to be rope holders like the other disciples that helped Apostle paul escape death. You wonder how? Remember all Christians in prayer especially those on mission field and those in countries where Christianity is not allowed. I remember how schools in Nigeria back then get a free copy of the New Testament.  Some student just fight to get it but make no use of the word.  Today Hold that Rope of intercession for Christians in the war torn countries, non Christian countries and mission field who are persecuted for their faith. To live is Christ and to die is gain that is the word of God am not trying to go against that but the word must still reach the outermost part of the world. If you can't go send your prayer.
Have a glorious day.
