Prayer Warriors Needed! Please join us in asking the Lord to establish a new church in Kenema, Sierra Leone. Pray that Jesus would direct our steps as we seek to obey His command to make disciples of all nations through the power of the Holy Spirit. Also, please pray for the unreached people groups in Sierra Leone; such as the Kuranko and the Fula Jalon. If you live in the Kenema area and would like to be a part of this core group, kindly message us for further details. Thank you!
The Word
Book of Wisdom 2,23-24.3,1-9.
God formed man to be imperishable; the image of his own nature he made him.
But by the envy of the devil, death entered the world, and they who are in his possession experience it.
But the souls of the just are in the hand of God, and no torment shall touch them.
They seemed, in the view of the foolish, to be dead; and their passing away was thought an affliction
and their going forth from us, utter destruction. But they are in peace.
For if before men, indeed, they be punished, yet is their hope full of immortality;
Chastised a little, they shall be greatly blessed, because God tried them and found them worthy of himself.
As gold in the furnace, he proved them, and as sacrificial offerings he took them to himself.
In the time of their visitation they shall shine, and shall dart about as sparks through stubble;
They shall judge nations and rule over peoples, and the LORD shall be their King forever.
Those who trust in him shall understand truth, and the faithful shall abide with him in love: Because grace and mercy are with his holy ones, and his care is with the elect.
