Recommended Reading #2
As a follow up to my first post on recommended reading, I would like to add several more books that have been a help to me as I endeavour to learn more about the persecuted Church.
God's Smuggler by Brother Andrew is an awesome story of how God used one Dutch man to smuggle many Bibles behind the Iron Curtain.
After Brother Andrew's first book, God's Smuggler, was published, he could not go back into the many countries that were under Communist rule because he would endanger the Christians. He then asked God to give him a new field of work and God opened up the Middle East. You can read about the continuing story of this brave soldier in Light Force.
Have you ever wondered what happens to Muslims once the find Christ as their Savior? Well, you can read about it in Secret Believers. This is Brother Andrew's latest book that will show you how Muslims-background-believers (MBBs) live their life in Christ when converting from Islam is a crime punishable with death.
The Heavenly Man is the remarkable story of Brother Yun. God used Brother Yun to awake many souls in Communist China and he tells his story in the books coauthored with Paul Hattaway.
Many people know that life isn't easy for Christians in China, but did you know that there is one country that people escape from into China that is worse? Escape from North Korea is the true story of one families escape from "the Hermit kingdom" and then of their conversion in China.
If you have read any books about persecution of Christians that I have not mentioned in these two posts, please tell me about them by leaving a comment. I am always looking for books of this nature.

Christians at the Gaza Strip
As many of you know, there has/is fighting going on over the Gaza Strip. The Israeli army has recently sent around 10,000 troops into the Strip and there have been many clashes between the two sides.
As has been seen many times in the past, numerous people suffer because of theses raging attacks. Many times it is the Christians who pay the highest price.
To read about how the Church in the Middle East is being caught in the middle of such turmoil, read Light Force by Brother Andrew.
Also, please pray for the peace of Jerusalem! (Psalm 122:6)

Praying for Persecuted Believers
Have you ever wondered how to pray for persecuted brothers and sisters in Christ? Below you will find several suggestions.
1. Read Books or Magazines
Reading is a great way to stay up-to-date on the issues and challenges faced by believers all over the world.
Voice of the Martyrs has a monthly newsletter that they send out free. It has stories from around the world that have specific prayer requests. http://www.persecution.com/
You can also check out books by various authors on this subject. One of my favorite authors is Brother Andrew (no he's not Catholic). He has written a couple of books on persecution in the Middle East. They are called, Light Force and Secret Believers. I highly recommend them.
2. Check out Websites
Here are several that I use:
http://www.persecution.com/
http://www.secretbelievers.org/home.aspx
http://www.compassdirect.org/en/display.php
3. Picture Youself in Their Place
Mentally placing yourself in the persecuted believers "shoes" is another way to know how to pray. Think of ways you'd need the Lord to help you and then pray that way for them.
4. Just Trust
Trust the Lord to lead you in your praying for those in bonds.
