Distinctive

We receive salvation when we stop trusting in ourselves and put our trust in what Christ did for us. Our salvation is a result of God’s grace. It’s based on what Jesus did for us on the cross. It has nothing to do with what we do for Him. We cannot save ourselves or earn God’s approval through the good works we do.

Pray for Vietnamese to turn away from trusting in themselves and receive Jesus as Lord and Savior. Ask God to help those who have heard the Good News to love, serve, and obey Him for the rest of their lives. #pray4vietnam

Evening friends come together to share the news of Evening friends come together to share the news of the day, from small chats leading to deep conversations. The topic of God and man is discussed---and the separation.

Feeling far from God is common these days where there seems to be no control. Many who sense this separation suppose they can meditate harder, learn more about religion or step into a religious sanctuary to be closer to God, but our separation is not physical or intellectual.

God is holy; man is not. All men have sinned and are separated from God.

Ask the Holy Spirit to bring conviction to hearts and for understanding to yield to God and accept His forgiveness. Pray for Vietnamese to acknowledge their separation and confess to God today. #pray4vietnam

"Paul then stood up in the meeting of the Areopagu "Paul then stood up in the meeting of the Areopagus and said: “People of Athens! I see that in every way you are very religious. For as I walked around and looked carefully at your objects of worship, I even found an altar with this inscription: to an unknown god. So you are ignorant of the very thing you worship—and this is what I am going to proclaim to you.""

"The God who made the world and everything in it is the Lord of heaven and earth and does not live in temples built by human hands. And He is not served by human hands, as if He needed anything. Rather, He Himself gives everyone life and breath and everything else. From one man He made all the nations, that they should inhabit the whole earth; and He marked out their appointed times in history and the boundaries of their lands. God did this so that they would seek Him and perhaps reach out for Him and find Him, though He is not far from any one of us." Acts 17:22-27

Pray for Vietnamese to know the God who made the universe and that they would seek and find Him. #pray4vietnam

Genesis 14 tells the story of how Abraham's nephew Genesis 14 tells the story of how Abraham's nephew, Lot, was captured as 9-kings fought for control of a valley. When Abraham found out Lot was taken prisoner, he assembled over 300 of his men to take pursuit. 

Afterwards, Abraham received a blessing and God was praised, "I give praise to God Most High who has handed over your enemies to you." Genesis 14:20.

Abraham had trained his men for such a time as this.

Pray for the men of Vietnam to rise-up, take steps to follow Jesus, be trained to share the Gospel, and start churches. #pray4vietnam

Sang and Thu work in a neighborhood market and sha Sang and Thu work in a neighborhood market and share a love for Jesus. As new believers, the two have opportunity to gather and meet with others to study and grow in God’s word. When they are studying, they are filled with peace and joy, but when they leave, the world crowds their schedules and distracts them. They miss chances to have conversations with their unbelieving friends or are pulled by their old way of life.

God did not create us to live a distracted life. God created us to live a Jesus-infused life.

1 Corinthians 7:35, "I am saying this for your benefit, not to place restrictions on you, but because of what is proper and so that you may be devoted to the Lord without distraction."

Pray for Sang and Thu and others like them that their focus will be on Jesus when they are studying and through their day to live life fully in step with God. #pray4vietnam

Day 3 of 3 On the third day of Tết, custom has V Day 3 of 3
On the third day of Tết, custom has Vietnamese making visits to temples in order to burn incense, offer prayers or obtain fortunes for the new year. The streets in and around the temples are filled with people who may only make this visit once or twice a year. 

The convenience of a fortune vending machine allows a fortune to be had without wadding through crowds at the temple. Put a coin in the machine and a scroll of fortune is dropped out to guide throughout the year. Let this year be known for the name of God to be high and lifted up and for Jesus to be the Messiah for all.

Pray for God’s power to be made known as Vietnamese believers share the Gospel with family and friends. Pray for the Holy Spirit to bring conviction and lives trust in our Lord God Almighty. #pray4vietnam

"Because our Gospel came to you not simply with words but also with power, with the Holy Spirit and deep conviction." 1 Thessalonians 1:5

On the second day of Tết friends may visit with one another, exchange gifts and foods or dress up to take photos in traditional ao dais (long shirt and pants).

Great conversations can happen. Pray for God to lead conversations to Him and whatever barrier the enemy has used to blind Vietnamese be removed. Pray for Vietnamese to trust Jesus Christ as their Savior. #pray4vietnam

"The god of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the Gospel that displays the glory of Christ, who is the image of God." 1 Corinthians 4:4
