    2012BLESSED BEGINNINGS (Ps. 1:3)The man of God whatsoever he doeth shall prosper . Inorder to have a glorious finish we need a serious beginning.

    Life many times offers new beginnings; lets start a new oneright now!

    1. Begin seeking the Lord (Gen.4:26) Every man shouldseek for Lord, Where?(Job 23:3) Dont seek Him among thedeaths (Luke 24:5), but at the right hand of the HeavenlyFather (Heb.12:2). When? As long as we can find Him (Isaiah55:6). How? With all your heart, (Jer.29:13).

    2. Begin to repent (Mark 14:72) We have to weep overour sin: in this world by repentance (Lam.3:39), or in eternity,and There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth(Mat.25:30).

    3. Begin to walk in the Spirit (Gal.3:3) We have to stopwalking under the leading of the flesh, and we have to beginwalking always under the leading of the Holy Spirit(Rom.8:12-13), and to end in victory our good start.

    4. Begin to serve (Luke 4:39) The proof of our divinehealing is our service before the Lord. After she was healed,Peters mother in law started to serve. We were healed not togo back to bed, but to serve the Lord (Rom.12:11), to be thepraise of His glory (Eph 1:12), with joy (Ps.100:2), with allhumility (Acts 20:19) and using the gift we received(1Pet.4:10). The reward will be glorious. (John 12:26)

    5. Begin to rejoice (Luke 15:24) The joy we received inour hearts when we were saved, and the joy that is in Heavenbefore the angels of God (Luke 15:7,10), we have to preserve itto the end, and it will be continued in eternity.(Isaiah 35:10, 51:11)In 2012 we have the opportunity to review our beginnings, tomake the necessary adjustments and to start a new blessed one.May God help us all! (Ticu Moisa)

    CHRISTIAN PERSECUTIONThis is the reality for about200 million followers of Jesus Christ around the world. Everyday they risk their lives just because they believe in JesusChrist. They could listen to the government, they can becomepart of other religion, they can deny their faith and be free, butfor them the love of the Lord deserves their sacrifice. Many ofthem pay for their faith with their own life. Christ gave His lifefor us, are we ready to die also for Him? Are we ready to facepersecution for our faith in our Savior Jesus Christ? Today weshould start preparing for this. Stand, having your loinsgirded about with truth (Eph.6:14). The Lord Jesus tells usin

    Mat.5:10-12:Blessed are they who have been persecutedfor righteousness sake! For theirs is the

    kingdom of Heaven. Blessed are you when men shall reyou and persecute you, and shall say all

    kinds of evil against you falsely, for My sake. Rejoice abe exceedingly glad, for your reward in Heaven is grFor so they persecuted the prophets who were before youCRY FREEDOM! Sometimes we hear just part of the horrsufferings some Christians and minorities are facing. Sopeople are living under the cruel vice of the most repressgovernments in the world: North Korea, China, Eritrea, Bur

    Cuba and Iran. The everyday life of the Christian in thcountries is very difficult. They have to face intimidatarrests, prison, torture and even death. This is the price tpay for their faith in Jesus Christ. This is why were launchour new CRY FREEDOM campaign today. The campaign timely response to tackle the root of peoples suffering - brstate repression. Through our work for long-lasting politchange, we can bring hope and establish abiding freedomChristians and others suffering at the hands of these bruregimes.Lets start with North Korea.

People were invited and forced to watheir executioWith the change in leadership, there is now a good opportunfor North Korea to change direction and stop the broppression of its own people.

    DMBOVITA, RO It is really hard to walk over the bordersbetween towns, which are the lands of the Mayor, of the Priestand of the Police Officer, who many times are building barriersof intimidation, but with the help of the Lord of the Harvestand with your help we were able to pass over many doubts andintimidations and we brought here the Bread of Life and theLiving Water.

    Poverty, sorrows and illnesses are tempering us even more thanthe iron in the fire, and the Lord works in our lives through allof these things. We are rejoicing and it is marvelous as we readin Ps. 118:23. I can tell you that I am alive, I travel trough the10 towns with the ministry that I received from the Lord andwe have many steadfast souls in the House of God. We rejoicehere in the middle of a village where before they were sellingalcohol and people were dancing, but now the Word of God ispreached. The voice of the Lord is telling them: Come, eat ofmy bread and drink of the wine I have mixed. Forsake thefoolish and live; and go in the way of understanding (Prov. 9:5-6) and Buy from Me gold purified by fire, sothat you may be rich (Rev.3:18) The Holy Spirit worksthrough dreams and visions and many people came to the Lord.Narcisa surrendered to the Lord during an Evangelistic service.An angel of the Lord came to her and said: Run for your life!and she asked: Where? and he showed her the place wherewe were praying. I come here three times a week; I need to behelped spiritually, morally and financially. Its not that easy, asthe gas is very expensive. Also, we started to build with ourown resources a small Church Building. We didnt payanything for the labor and the construction goes very well, butnow we need financial help to finish it, to dedicate it and to use

    it.Due to kidney stones I was sent to the emergency room at theHospital in Gaesti under severe pains. I had to borrow moneyto pay for the hospital. Also, this month we dedicate theChurch at Grajd. (Ion Solomon)

    TURKEY Dear brothers of prayer! At the end of 2011 whenpeople from the mayors office ceased our building, we try tomeet with a representative to ask for a release but so far all wetried was without any positive result. Without any good reasonthey sealed the building, and they didnt give us any official

    document for their action. Any time we look for them theynot to be found. People who know the law told us to give And this comes after officially we are registered asAssociation (Dernek). This week we will still enter building to finish the painting and Sunday we intend to hthe first service there. Please, pray with us that the Lord give us the victory in this difficult situation. Tuesday Thursday the entire Church is called to come and to paround the Town Hall building and of the Christian Cenwhich 2-3 minutes distance. The Lord spoke to me fr

    Daniel chapter 6 and I pray that the end of this situation be as it is written in the following verses: Then King Darwrote to all people, nations, and languages who dwell inthe earth. Peace be multiplied to you. I make a decree tin all the domain of my kingdom, there shall be trembland fear before the God of Daniel. For He is the livGod, and endures forever, and His kingdom is that whshall not be destroyed, and His ruleshall be to the end.delivers and rescues, and He works signs and wondersthe heavens and in earth, He who has delivered Danfrom the power of the lions.Dan 6:25-27WITH THANKSGIVING: Dani H

    SIGNS OF THE COMING OF THE LORD Our Lord JeChrist, Apostle Paul and Apostle Peter gave us meschatological references. In Matthew 24 the Lord givesprophetically 24 signs of His second coming. We wanmention here some of the most important:

    False Christs (Mat.24:5,11,24)False Prophets (v.11,24)Wars and rumors of wars (v.6,7)Nation will rise against nation (v.7)Earthquakes, famines and pestilences (v.7)
