«Be sober, be watchful: your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour» – 1 Peter, 5:8
We do not stop to be surprised and thank God for our little playing club. Well as little. To date in the chat of club already more than 60 persons, and on playing twice a week come for 10-12 persons. It is both students and schoolchildren, and teachers, both Tadjiks and foreigners, both fellows and girls. We pray, that God brought necessary people over to us, and He is faithful!
Also began already to pray for expansion of apartment, in fact 16 persons (wow!) came on a past игро-вечер, and in a room with three tables to us was already rather crowded.
For the last month God sent the couple of the new playing our arsenal, simple, inexpensive and rapid, yet, such was not enough just to us.
And game “Secret Hitler” (extended version of “Maffia”) we threw out at last, because Lord showed clearly, that to such games not place in our club. Some time we did not play her, because Spirit Saint constantly revealed us, that through this game we teach people to tell and pretend to be. But recently decided again to play, got, decomposed cards.
And it became suddenly badly to one fellow – lost consciousness (well, that was at a table, did not hurt oneself). About 10 we tried to bring him to lives, prayed whisper (in a cafe dare not pray more loud, unfortunately), but all was uselessly. No external factors were thus, that would could on him so to influence. We caused an ambulance, the nurse performed various procedures for about 20 minutes, twice pricked some medications in a vein, but to the fellow all was not easy, he was as though between sky and earth – both will open eyes or sails away again…
And then I saw our game on the table, and on the cards, skulls and snakes. In anger I collected all the cards, crumpled and threw in an urn in the street, praying in the name of Jesus that no darkness had power over the boys through this bad game. Within two minutes, the guy came to his senses.
The first thing he asked me to do was wash his face again. While he was unconscious, I washed his face with cool water, praying in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. Аnd when the guy woke up – turned to me: «Can you wash my face again?» – and I washed his face again in the name of Christ….
«The name of the Lord is a strong tower: the righteous man runs into it – and is safe» – Proverbs, 18:11.
This guy’s doing fine today, thank God. He underwent some examination at the hospital, where he was not told anything specific, but he feels good, as if nothing ever happened. Unfortunately, we haven’t been able to get a closer look at him since that incident. But we pray for him and wait, knowing that God by the Holy Spirit is already doing some work in his heart.
We ask you to remember in our prayers the Tajik play club, so that the Light shines through us and pours love on everyone in casual communion with unbelieving people. We also need prayers for protection and protection, because we know that Satan does not sleep, and always wants to steal and destroy what God sends us. But we have already won in Christ Jesus!
