This is part of a recent email from an MTW missionary serving in Tokyo who has been making trips up to the tsunami affected area.
"The Holy Spirit was so obviously moving on those trips. There is no other explanation for the openness of the people and the clear healing taking place. On the other hand, there is also an obvious spiritual battle going on around the community of Tsukuda/Tsukishima. The town is literally divided over whether or not to partner with or even associate with Christians. Three separate individuals have gone to the retirement home where we have been storing supplies telling them to stop because Christians are dangerous. Our closest Japanese friends have been in long meetings every day from vocal members of the community who want them to stop working with us. Many arguments between friends. This is taking up a lot of people’s time and energy. Please pray!"Our battle is not against flesh and blood. The people of Japan have been in bondage for centuries and Satan is not going to give up the battle without a fight. But he ultimately knows the war has already been won and he is defeated!
Please pray for these Japanese Christians who are experiencing persecution because they are proclaiming the name of Jesus and pray that they will remain steadfast in their boldness!
