What will it take for us to reach those in which we cry freedom? Do we pray introvert or extrovert. There is a world out there- The mute, cutters, homeless, homosexuals, atheist, abortions, human traifficking, addictions, suicide... Your voice counts! What if I, just one will stand as a person of change. A person who cries freedom. I say, if one stands for change and justice than each one I come in contact with will encounter this change, Jesus Christ. Those who change stand with me... R-E-F-O-R-M-A-T-I-O-N. So imagine you and me standing to change the world, how much more can be done with two. If God's people would stand in the authority which was given to each one on the day of salvation lives would be reformed. I am tired of compromising with the ways of society. I believe in a radical God who does radical things. This radical spirit dwells in you and it dwells in me... God tells us to renew our minds daily. This means to daily change the way we think. So what will it take to impact a generation? Those in the market place? The answer is LOVE and TIME. Now lets think what are we doing with our time? Where are we seeing reformation? If we are not seeing it then, it's time to jump in the boat and reform.

The Silent Wound

"Awareness"

There are silent cries in the hearts of so many children and women in Asia. Children and women are being trafficked daily and my heart aches for this cause. For those of you who do not understand Child trafficking and human trafficking, let me explain:

The trafficking of children is usually by way of kidnapping or abduction, once abducted, threats and acts of violence are used to hold on to the victims. In Thailand for instance, brothel managers employ agents to collect photos of young girls as they go to school. The girls are then selected by the managers and upon selection the girls are ordered by them for the agents to kidnap.



Aside from the kidnapping or abduction, Asian Countries have also faced the poverty driven selling of “daughters” by the impoverished families to “agents” for sometimes as low as US$200 a child, which children are then re-sold to traffickers. The sale of the girl child by her family, due to poverty, in turn places the financial burden of supporting her family on the girl child. Such trafficking is an example of non-violent trafficking of children. Also of large incidence is where the agents pose as “potential husbands” used to deceive the family of the girl child into believing the girl child and her “rich” husband will take over their financial burden, inevitably however, the girl child is then either sold to traffickers or forced into prostitution. However, one must remember that it benefits the traffickers to keep their victims in a foreign environment where not only are they vulnerable for having entered a country illegally, but are also disadvantaged because of their ignorance of the law, culture and language of that country.

"THE SILENT WOUND"

There is a wound, that we can not see on the inside of many woman and children. It is a silent wound. A silent cry for help. Many woman, boys and girls are being sold for sex. The innocence of children are being stolen due to poverty and demonic spirits.

My heart is awakened to this cry for help and I can not ignore the hurting. At night I enter the bars of Nana's and I see young boys selling "gum" for 10 baht. However, I see them speaking rather closely to men and my spirit man tells me they are being trafficked. How can I ignore Ty and Lee? Young boys who have had their innocence stolen. No! I can't.

The Lord needs his people, who are called by his name, to WAR upon injustice. I may be crazy but I must answer the calling of my Lord.

Wednesday, a man was being overly aggressive with a Thai lady and would not let her go. He was a foreigner, who has sexually abused her 7 year old daughter. He continued to grab her. I told the man to let her go. That night Lydia and I paid her bar fine and helped her escaped. Her name is Gui. She dances for money to support her mother, father and daughter. It is obvious the Lord loves her and has been pursuing her. She is very receptive to the things of God. I am believing the Lord for her salvation.

It is not only women and children who need intercessor's but men all over the world who have been created by God are being tormented by perverse spirits. God created these men to be warriors for his kingdom but the enemy is deceptive and to many are believing the lie. Please pray church for our men all around the globe.

The are many men who have been raised to believe they were born with a heart of a woman. All of their lives they are taught to speak,walk,talk,and act like a lady from childhood, they are called "lady boys". This is generational curse that needs to be broken. There are many "lady boys" that sale themselves to customers. Their customers are men which come from all over the globe to fulfill their fantasy. (In the background of this picture, it is lady boys).

Lord awaken the church to feel your pain. To feel your hearts cry for the nations. Lord would you raise up men in Thailand to war for you name. Lord I pray a curse injustice. Lord release your Justice on this land that men, women, and children might me saved. God I know that in your hand there is mercy,justice,love and peace. Lord captivate the king of Thailands heart!

Can you hear the Cry For Freedom?

Can you hear the cry of the children? Can you hear her cry for freedom? What will her life be like in 10 years if no one tells her of Jesus? If no one goes, if no one loves her, how will she know?

My heart longs to be with the people of Asia. It's as if I can hear them calling out for help. I have the answer that will bring freedom from idol worship and sex slavery. I know the saving grace. I can tell them... I know Jesus, He is the very one that saved my feet from the pit of hell. He is the one that freed me of deceptive lies, drugs, alcohol, idols, sex, depression and fear. I can tell them he is the one that can free Asia. I can tell them he filled me with his joy and fire. Can I can look to the her eyes and say "Be freed in Jesus name."

Here is a story from Mei's who is now free....

My father left my mother when I was seven months old, and my mother left me with my grandmother. My mother came back and started to take care of me when I was 9 years old. At that time, my mother had no money to send me to school, so I had to go out and work in the market butchering chickens for 30 Baht ($0.75US) per day. If the chicken didn't sell well, I had to accept the chicken as my wage rather than money.

I did this until grade 6, when I got a new job at a cookie distribution shop. I earned 1500 Baht ($37US) per month, but this wasn't enough for my family and the school fees for my sister and me. We did not own property, and had to pay rent every month. After I finished grade 6, I had worked at the cookie store for five months and I could see it was not helping.

I made a decision to come to Bangkok with a friend and found work at a glass factory. Now I was earning 2500 Baht ($60US) per month, and I worked there for five years. I had to use this money to pay for my expenses in Bangkok as well as send money home, so this still wasn't enough.

I was now 18 years old, and my friend suggested that I work on Soi Nana as a bar-girl to earn more money. I worked there for two years and my friend suggested Soi Cowboy. I realized that the life at this bar was very different. Life was much worse at Soi Cowboy, and I was now selling and using drugs. I was no longer sending money home on any regular basis and I had no morals in my work in the bar. Soon I was like a street girl, selling anything I could until I was arrested three years ago for having and selling drugs.

After three months in prison, I was sent to a drug rehabilitation center so that I could stay free from drugs. After another three months, I was released and sent home to Nong Kai to rest. I only stayed home for one month, and went back to Soi Cowboy because I had no goals, no job, and no money.

I tried to act like a man before, and was even in some lesbian relationships

This time, while at Soi Cowboy, I met workers from The Well. Soon after I met them, I was rejected by a European man who had said he would take care of me. He paid for me to be free from the bar, but then he would tell me to go away so he could stay with other women. I didn't know what I should do. The people from The Well counseled me and made me understand more about what life is and that I could survive even if this man wouldn't stay with me.

I began to spend more time with The Well after that and received Christ in November. I quit my job right away and did not go back. I know that I cannot find any love from a man in that place.

I know that I was longing for a father's love, but I hadn't had that since I was seven months old, and my real father passed away three years ago. Even though he is dead, I long to visit him, even if he is in the ground. I tried to act like a man before, and was even in some lesbian relationships, to show that I am strong and that I can protect and take care of the girls. I know deep in my heart that I am the one who is longing for that kind of love and protection from someone.

Now my desire is to follow God's way, and my life belongs to Him. When I joined The Well, I was the only person in the program. I was able to support my mother by working with The Well. Now my little sister, who is 14, has also joined The Well and became a Christian. In the future, I want to study more and become a teacher. I want to have a good future. I want my family to look at me differently than before, to see that I am not a prostitute anymore, but that I have a good future.

Please pray for a fresh anointing, wisdom, knowledge, boldness, protection and grace as I prepare to myself to leave for Thailand in July.

Can you hear the cry for freedom? What will you do?

Thailand

Each year thousands of women and girls from poorer towns and villages, in Thailand, flock to cities like Bangkok and Pattaya to work in bars, gogo bars, brothels and massage parlors. Some are sold outright by their families as slaves, where they may end up locked in closed brothels. Others are sent by their families to work in the lucrative tourist sex trade and return the majority of their incomes back home. Some have children of their own that they are hoping to give a better life. But in far too many cases, that dream never comes true.

In July, I will be returning back to Thailand for a couple of months, where I will be serving along side a ministry called "The Well." "The Well" is an organization which loves bar girls and sex workers the same way, that Jesus loved the woman at the well." The Well provides counseling, job development, and training, and housing for the girls who desire away out of the sex industry.

Since I have left Thailand in August of 2007, There has not been one day when I have not thought of and prayed for Freedom for the lives of those who live in Thailand. I know this is a place where the Lord will have me invest into lives. I believe with all of my heart that freedom will and can break out but it's by the prayers of the saints.

Here is a story of God setting free a 13 year old girl who was working as a bar girl:

Her name is Bonny and she is 13 years old. First approaching the bar to talk to her, the bar manager quickly says "She is not working here, she is family and is here for a holiday." We knew that this was not true. She in fact was working as a bar girl. The bar manager was telling us that Bonny did not work there in fear that we were police. It is illegal for anyone under the age of 20 years old to work in the bars.

That night we paid Bonny's bar fine, taking her to sing Karaoke, it was beautiful to see her smile and enjoy herself. She could smile knowing that she was safe. Jim is a man who is over "The Well." His heart broke in two when he saw Bonny working in the bars. I felt as though I observed Jesus reach out to Bonny with loving arms of grace. Jim said "I am getting her out of here, even if it means I must adopt her." Sure enough, Jim talked to her and that night we brought her home so she could peacefully rest. The following morning Bonny and her friend who is 16 years old named Boozy and was a dancer at the bars, came to visit "The Well," where there were about 12 other girls who understood their past and were trying to get her to come and join them at "The Well." Sure enough both Bonny and Boozy now are making and selling crafts for money and can safely sleep at night and be taught the word of God as well as english during the day.

In celebration for Bonny and Buzzy leaving the Bars, We took all the girls out for dinner. It was beautiful so see them smile. I asked Bo if she was happy to be at the well she smiled and said, "Yes, I can Sleep." At 13 years old Bonny was in fear of her conditions of her life when she woke the next morning. Praise God, Now sleep peacefully, waking in the morning secure.

As of now Bonny has given her life to the Lord and is serving him. Her family is very hungry for God as well. Please be praying for her family.



SHE IS HIS BELOVED
