Dear Friends, Family, Partners
in Ministry,
I realize that many of you
are wanting to know where we are with the building and we will give you an
update very soon but during this whole building process one of my roles as Vice
President and Director of Field Operation for NTIM is to help us all maintain focus
upon what God is doing, why we are here in Northern Thailand, and what He is
doing each and every day in the hearts and lives of people.
We still have many things
to share with you about the building but please let me ask you to remember that
we need your prayer not just for the whole building process but we need your
prayers every single day as we seek to be deeply involved in making disciples and
giving our lives out every day for the advancement of the great commission to
some of the least reached people groups in our world today.
Today, I want to ask you to
pray for me personally as I begin this Monday morning preparing for the
important work of speaking God’s Word this coming Sunday morning here in
Northern Thailand among both missionaries who need to be feed and among dozens and dozens of people who are genuine 1st generation followers
of Jesus. God is raising up a new generation of believers to reach this part of
the world and what we do here every Sunday morning is important to building the
right kind of foundation in God’s church that we call Baan Athitaan Church.
Please pray for me as I
begin to seek God's understanding and heart and begin preparations for
preaching/teaching this coming Sunday morning on the very important topic of
"Partial Obedience" from the life of Saul in 1 Samuel 15. Such a very
rich passage and so many things that could be said.
Please pray for me that I
would discern the most important things to say and to say them in a way that
others may hear to Spirit of God speaking to them. Our church is filled with
dozens and dozens of 1st generation followers of Jesus and there are many
things that are will be difficult for them to hear but important that they
understand the Holy and Righteous God that we serve that says, "to obey is
better than sacrifice." 1 Sam 15:23
Much Love & Prayers from Northern
Thailand. Michael
“For we do not preach ourselves but Christ
Jesus as Lord, and ourselves as your bond-servants for Jesus’ sake.” 2 Corinthians
