The Action Report Future Joshuas By Frank Eiklor and the Shalom Team It’s like looking at the ocean and seeing it reflect thousands of young faces.
Like I’m standing on the shore and calling out God’s love and Jesus’ invitation to be born anew and live to serve Him. Then it’s like the waves come in—waves of those same faces—lapping at the feet of Christ as He stands to greet them.
How can I describe the spiritual thirst of Argentina’s youth?! We returned from reaching out to thousands. When I called them to a decision, they surged forward by the hundreds. And this was no easy decision, like too often happens in the church when people say, “Jesus, be my Savior, but I will still be the boss of my life.” No, this was the Spirit of God so filling that vast auditorium that it seemed like it would explode.
God made it clear: accept His Son and life will change
No more sex until marriage. Farewell and good riddance to drugs, alcohol, porn and other chains in the devil’s bag of tricks. Still they came—even running—to the makeshift altar in front. I thought of the destructive tornado in Atlanta that caused Walter and I to miss our flight and arrive one day late. Now it was like experiencing a constructive tornado of God’s presence and power as heaven reached down and touched earth.
These are the future Joshuas who are going to hasten the return of Jesus by reaching our world with His truth
Those whom we loved in years past have now become adults. We met some of them—vibrant and in love with Christ. One of these “old timers” had told a youth, “Go meet Frank and you will meet Jesus.” Well, he opened his Bible and read it. Then he said, "I’m reading my Bible and I find Jesus everywhere. But I can’t find Frank.” How simple! How sincere! Well, he came to the meetings and He REALLY met Jesus!
God used your prayers and support to make it all happen. He gets the glory! Now on to the next battle. Please keep standing at our side. We need you!
To the Jew—the Gentile—the world,
Frank Related Articles · More Articles Jesus said many would come in His name and deceive the hearts of the simple, sinful and proud. Eastern mysticism and meditation is a big thing in the gullible West. And one day a “world leader” will appear on the scene with the persuasion of a god and the heart of a devil. Jesus warns His children to know the Scriptures, live in obedience to the Father’s will, and stay alert to the signs of the times. They laugh no more. Now God’s description of how He will destroy the old earth and create a
new one makes perfect sense. The splitting of the atom turned many skeptics into believers.
After all, look what man himself is capable of doing with the atom and hydrogen bombs. Now
the fear is that nuclear weapons are being placed in the hands of madmen who wish to annihilate
their enemies. God has blessed man with incredible genius. We stand in awe as we watch men and women in a room full of computers and high-tech instruments guiding and landing spacecraft on distant planets. At that moment, we appear invincible. But then a mammoth tornado comes—or a terrifying hurricane—or rains that flood whole regions and never listen to our shouts to “Stop!”—or the shake that removes from under our feet any confidence or pride we carry, and leaves us numb with hardly enough breath to even utter the paralyzing word “EARTHQUAKE!”. And man is helpless in the face of it all! |
