Slavic Missionary Service

Pray for your local church and the local churches in Slavic countries. Ask the Lord to increase the spiritual life of each member of the church. Ask Him to assist your church in the area where you live to seek souls with salvation from sin. And may this assistance extend throughout the whole world. Pray for your pastor and leadership, as well as the pastors and leadership in the Slavic world. Pray for peace in the world. Ask God to restrain evil through the Holy Spirit in order that His Word may have free course in every country.

Dear to the believer’s heart are the inspired words which tell of the Savior’s birth in Bethlehem. With beautiful simplicity and serendipity, God has unfolded to the world the incarnation of His Only Begotten Son. At this Christmas season, as the Christian’s mind and motivation are centered on the greatest gift that the Heavenly Father has given, should not the very best be given to the Master?

God the Father sent Jesus the Son to be “the savior of the world” (1 John 4:14). He has destroyed “the works of the devil” (1 John 3:8) and is the “propitiation” for the “sins” of mankind (1 John 4:10). The believer can only “live” a life of faith and fidelity “through Him” (1 John 4:9).

Jesus is no longer in the manger; He is no longer on the cross. The Christian worships the living resurrected Christ who is seated at the right hand of the Father. This good news instills within the believer great joy and invigorates a hope that this One and Only Sovereign Savior will again return in glorious power.

Commemorate Christmas before your church and community with confidence and cheerfulness. Fellowship with family and friends with an overflowing faith that can overturn frowns, overcome failures, overrule friction, overthrow fallacies and overwhelm foes. Try not to overlook the feeble, fragile or fearful. And may the sharing of God’s gift of grace, seasoned with salt, never be overbearing or overdone.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from the servants of Slavic Missionary Service!

Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign: The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and will call him Immanuel.

Isaiah 7:14

God’s strategy for world evangelism calls for two equally important elements: Co-missionaries and Go-missionaries, the senders and the sent, the supporters and the workers. A Christian church without missionary enthusiasm is a contradiction. God depends upon the faithful testimony of His people for the evangelization of the world. The Savior expects those who have tasted the sweetness of salvation to spread the news far and wide. He has commissioned His children to share His Word to the lost in every country.
