THANK YOU!

WLBC Praying

for… HOKKIEN

OF EAST ASIA

BEYOND. The Hokkien people

originally came from

southeastern China. To-

day, with a worldwide

population of more than

59 million, approximate-

ly 2 million are outside

of China and scattered in

pockets throughout the

world. The percentage of 

Christian believers

among the Hokkien isextremely low. Pray for

workers as they mobilize

to take the gospel to

these scattered people.

Avoid Impulsiveness

Desite our impulsive natures, we must disci-

pline ourselves in patience, finding content-

ment in waiting. God is always true to His

Word. He will reveal His sovereign will for our

lives in due time.

Pray. Ask God to clearly reveal and confirm

His plan and purpose for your life, which He

may do in a variety of ways such as through

Scripture, people, and/or circumstances. Be

Vigilant and pray without ceasing.

 “He answered their [Israilites] prayers, be-

cause they trusted in him” (1 Chron. 5:20). 

Trust. Have confidence in His sovereignty as

your Creator, Savior, and Lord. Who knows

us better than the One Who created us,

loves us more than the One Who saved us,

and leads us better than the One Who is the

Way?

 “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and

lean not on your own understanding; in all

your ways submit to him, and he will make

your paths straight” (Prov. 3:5-6).

Wait. Patience is an uncommon virtue today

because we live in a “want it now” genera-

tion that convinces us we can have it now.

Obediently endure the delays.

 “Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart

and wait for the Lord.” (Psalm 27:14).

contact the church office.

Sunday school teacher: “How many of you children wantto go to heaven?” Everyone raised a hand except one little boy.

Teacher to the boy: “Johnny, don’t you want to go toheaven?”
