Targeted

We are starting a new tab dedicated to the struggles we meet that honor GOD and to tell the enemy to kick rocks. When we turn our backs on the darkness to follow Jesus into the light, there is a giant target on our back. The darts will come, but the armor of GOD protects us, should we suit up every day (Ephesians 6:11).
In the last few weeks:
◦ Starting with the annual Friends of Freedom Banquet and Fundraiser May 31. Most everyone busy, conflicted with other fundraisers and events - canceled.
◦ Then, Rhett Walker has extra time and wants to help - fundraiser restructured and back on. He gets sick and missed his flight - canceled.
◦ The EPiC account continues to remain low, so the laborer receives no wages and lives on faith.
◦ The family van we bought last year has broken down now for the third time. This time it has been down for three weeks and still waiting for ordered parts to arrive.
◦ We took the ministry mobile, the Prius I take to the jails/prisons, to an EPiC presentation at a friend's church in KC and it started overheating on the way back.
◦ Made it home and made repairs. Wednesday on the way home from Lincoln and Omaha prisons, 100 miles from home, it's overheating again.
◦ Through your prayers, GOD brought a cold front. The 97° day turned into 82° and the LORD allowed safe passage home on time to make our son’s baseball game.
◦ Ordered parts for Prius and put it back together. Now, we pray it is fixed and continues to deliver the messenger to where Jesus calls.
◦ We're down to one vehicle, if the defeated enemy continues to harass us, the next step is riding my bike to the jails. It’s only 40 miles each way!
◦ By the power of Almighty GOD, we will stand (Eph 6:10). Regardless of funding or transportation, as long as there is breath in these lungs, we will continue to live in faith to minister the gospel of Jesus Christ as and where He commands.
◦ Isaiah 50:7 (NKJV) “For the LORD GOD will help Me; Therefore I will not be disgraced; Therefore I have set My face like a flint, And I know that I will not be ashamed.
◦ LORD Jesus, help us to be like You.
