For those following Samuel Thomas’ situation in India, I just received the following email this morning:
“Hello saints, What a powerful God! Praise the Lord, we finally got all the accounts back, all the license back and all the goverment officials have to leave Emmanuel campus within 48 hours.
We praise God that we finally got the bail last evening from Jaipur ” High Court”. TO GOD BE ALL THE GLORY! Now we are free to move arround.
Praise God and I sincerely thank you for your prayers.
The court decesion is in our favor. All things will be back to normal as before. This is truly a result of your prayers.”
What a great story of modern-day persecution being played out in real time. First they arrested and tortured him, then they threatened his orphans and shut down his ministry, and today, we see God’s glory manifested! It puts our own life issues into perspective.

But you, O God, do see trouble and grief; you consider it to take it in hand. The victim commits himself to you; you are the helper of the fatherless.

I just got back from translating in Mexico. I kept thinking about the children of India as I interacted with Mexico’s children. Praise the Lord! I am thankful, deeply thankful that our prayers were answered. We join the children of India in their prayers and praises to the Lord.

you have ordained praise because of your enemies, to silence the foe and the avenger.
