When we think of the many brothers-and-sisters-in-Christ that are persecuted because of their living faith in Jesus, the Son of God, often even Christians feel at a loss as to what could be done about this horrific situation. A couple of years ago, we discovered that as members of the body of Christ, there is actually a whole lot that we can do to help them.
Living Gemstones Ministries, for example, has partnered with 'prisoneralert.com', which is a ministry of the 'Voice of the Martyrs'. We have literally adopted some of the family-in-Christ there to support them in prayer and letters. We know that our work makes a difference and we have frequently seen divine intervention on behalf of His children.
Richard Wurmbrand in his classic 'Tortured for Christ' and himself a victim of severe persecution for many years said, 'The West sleeps and must be awakened to see the plight of the captive nations'.
Why don't you 'adopt' a brother or sister-in-Christ as well and intercede on his/her behalf on a regular basis? It's worth it every bit!!!
