Mr Han came to Christ after many years of being ill. Neither the doctor nor the village witch doctor could help him, even though he spent most of his money and killed much of his livestock.
He heard that Jesus could perform miracles, so he took his whole family to the Christian village to accept Christ. Then the persecution began.
The first year, his village threatened to force his family from the village and treated him with extreme contempt. When that didn’t work, they seized his farmland and his rubber trees. But Han still didn’t give up his faith.
Village officials then decided to charge Han an extra tax. Han was not discouraged; he challenged the authorities and continued to pray for the sick and share the Gospel with others. There are now 11 Christian families in the village worshipping at Han’s house, which is run-down due to the difficulties he has faced.

There is power in the Name of Jesus to do what men found impossible!
Rom. 8 Verses 38 to 39
[38] For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, [39] Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
We know who we are in Christ Jesus our Lord. We are sons of God. Our citizenship is in heaven.
Praying. Such good news and such trust in Christ
Father God, please help Mr Han remain steadfast under trial, so that when he has stood the test he will receive the crown of life which You have promised to those who love You (James 1:12). Thankyou for the faith and fellow believers You have given to him. May they be a community marked by love, courage, and peace. May others be drawn to You through them, for Your glory and their joy. Amen
