Scripture: 1 Corinthians 12 v 24 - 26: "For our comely parts have no need: but God hath tempered the body together, having given more abundant honour to that part which lacked:
25 That there should be no schism in the body; but that the members should have the same care one for another.26 And whether one member suffer, all the members suffer with it; or one member be honoured, all the members rejoice with it."
One of the great effects of a unified Body of Christ is that when one member suffers we all suffer with it. It's like if you stub your toe your whole body feels it. Or if you have toothache, every part of you suffers with it.
If one is rejoicing then all are filled with joy, if one cries, we all cry. For this reason I am posting a letter here received a few days ago from a Christian in Myanmar on Twitter.
#Myanmar
Dear praying friends,
March 17 -The nights of trembling continue on. By 7 pm, every house would turn off their light because we are afraid to be noticed by the military. The whole country was in Darkness, not only Spiritually but also physically. Within a week, hundreds have been killed. The internet connection was cut off country-wide, but fiber wifi was somehow working with a low connection ( I don't know why?) But it really affected so many people. People cannot anymore show the world what was exactly going on through live video.
After martial law was announced, the military terrorist resided in every place. No one dares to go out even in the afternoon. Everyone locks their doors and hides inside their houses. Not very long, we received very upsetting news, our former bible college student, youth pastor was shot dead in his lung. He was trying to fetch his sister, who was in the uprising area. A 25 years old young man who loves the Lord and has such a Christlike character passed away. My heart was broken: "Sometimes things that happened are too hard to accept despite the fact we know that God is in control."
March 18- We received the news again that the soldiers captured our former student and brother. We learned that he was put in jail; please continue to pray for him. We do not know what they will do to him. We trust that the hand of the Lord will be upon him.
March 19 - Near our house is a dormitory, and there is a loving couple who recently has a newborn baby. The husband's occupation was transporter by bike, he went out to buy something, never returned. A civilian found his body; he was shot dead. We dare not to let his wife know about this yet.
To all my praying friends, the reason I am giving to you all these updates is for you to know how to pray for our country. I am not trying to scare you, but the condition of this world and people's mind is deteriorating day by day. Please pray for us that at this very last minute, the Lord might change direction and give us another great privilege to preach the gospel freely, even if it is just a short moment.

You are probably aware by now of the World Economic Forum theme for their next meeting in May 2021, is The Great Reset. What is happening in Myanmar is being planned for the rest of the world by 2030.
This is the implementation of the New World Order which paves the way for the One World Government under the Antichrist. Everywhere we look these days we see signs of this in anarchy, lawlessness, fear and persecution.
Just yesterday there was the second mass shooting within 8 days in the USA. Yesterday another ten people died in Boulder, Colorado, the wounded shooter is in custody. Strangely, I kept getting snatches of an old song in my mind, I Don't Like Mondays. It was about a school shoot up years ago and the female murderer told the cops when arrested that she did not like Mondays. I did pray that it would not happen again but it did.
We cannot control people's actions when their selfwill is dominating them. Hopefully some people escaped or were diverted by the Lord. We never know when our name is on a bullet or a deadly virus or a fatal crash or a tsunami or earthquake, so we must always be ready to meet the Lord, it leaves no space for error.
Do not put off till tomorrow what you can do today.
Prayer: Heavenly Father, if all we can do is love and pray then help us to give our best love and prayers to those who need it most. The unsaved. Followed by Christians being persecuted in Myanmar, North Korea, China, Arab countries, African countries, Lord we lift them all up to You to turn the tables and bring victory to the victims. We also pray that the Great Reset will be controlled by You to bring about revival so many will be saved. In Jesus' name. Amen.
