Chaos Reigns

Posted by Rev. Bernie Seter | Sep 7, 2014 | 0

To the folks that are smarter than all the rest of us – the JV squad can kill you just as dead as the starters.

Got this three days ago.

Just a few minutes ago I received
 the following text message on my phone from Sean Malone who leads Crisis Relief
International (CRI). We then spoke briefly on the phone and I assured him that we
would share this urgent prayer need with all of our contacts. 
>>>>>>>"We lost the city of Queragosh (Qaraqosh). It fell to ISIS and they are
beheading children systematically. This is the city we have been smuggling
food too. ISIS has pushed back Peshmerga (Kurdish forces) and is within 10
minutes of where our CRI team is working. Thousands more fled into the city
of Erbil last night. The UN evacuated it's staff in Erbil. Our team is
unmoved and will stay. Prayer cover needed!" 
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>Please pray sincerely for the deliverance of the people of Northern Iraq from
the terrible advancement of ISIS and its extreme Islamic goals for mass
conversion or death for Christians across this region.
