I Prayed have prayed
Lord God, thank you for the courage of these dear Christians in China. Protect them and use them mightily.

What comes to your mind when I say “Wuhan”? Coronavirus, lockdown, fear? But what if I tell you that in the midst of darkness, there’s another narrative being written – another picture being painted?

You might have already heard how the authorities in China have clamped down on Christianity in recent years: churches have been raided and members arrested, Bibles have been confiscated, and even celebrating Christmas has become a problem. Persecution is rife.

But at the heart of China’s coronavirus outbreak in Wuhan, Christians are demonstrating the opposite of fear.

In one video, a lady can be seen thanking God and laying out Christian resources for anyone who’s interested to pick it up. In another, a pair can be seen going out to the streets distributing masks, while playing a gospel audio track in the background. It seems believers are using all sorts of ways to broadcast the Bible to their fellow residents in Wuhan, even playing them from their balconies for all to hear.

In a blog post titled A Door Opened in Wuhan, China, one missionary to Wuhan wrote: “Now it is the 10th day since the city has been separated by quarantine, and protective masks are the most valuable thing in Wuhan. Money is useless because you can’t find a store that sells the masks. People are in a desperate situation. In response, our brothers and sisters preach the gospel and give out tracks and free masks.”

As heralds of peace, Christians in Wuhan are now known for their full yellow protective suit that they don while hitting the streets day after day – they’ve even been called “angels in yellow”.

“Yellow has become the most beautiful colour in the city,” the missionary concluded.

If there’s a silver lining in this epidemic, it has to be this: Christ is being made known in China. Against the risk of persecution and infection, Christians are tirelessly working to make the gospel shine in the most hopeless of situations. . . .

Similarly, this was what Reverend Vincent Choo from Life Church and Missions Singapore alluded to when addressing his congregation for the first time after news broke that the church was listed as a potential coronavirus cluster: “What is our real sickness? It is inside us; the condition of our souls. That is what Christ came to save us from.”

O death, where is your victory?
O death, where is your sting?”

For sin is the sting that results in death, and the law gives sin its power. But thank God! He gives us victory over sin and death through our Lord Jesus Christ. (1 Corinthians 15:55-57 NLT)

When we realize that we have been saved from the greatest human condition, “we will not be afraid to be a living testimony no matter the different trials in life”, said Reverend Choo.

Dear Heavenly Father, right now I lift up to you those people in China under quarantine, those with the corona virus, and those angels who are standing in the gap and spreading Your love and peace. Build a hedge of protection around them, and if it be Your will, please heal those with the virus.

Amen

You know Father God how your church in China has been so faithful while at the same time faceing such increasing persecution & opposition. Lord God, let this time of potential disaster come to be known as the Church in China’s “Finest Hour”. When a nation that had suddenly become disillusioned, suddenly experienced a “devine intervention” of Gods Love seen initially through the compassion of your Angels in yellow along with an instant comprehension of the truth of the glorious gospel that causes scales to fall from their eyes & a compulsion to embrace for themselves & their families this Glorious Gospel. Lord God, let this disaster lead to the greatest of all world revivals that will leap over borders & the great oceans of this world. This world that your Son, the Lord Jesus Christ, paid such a huge price for when you Father in your love for us, laid on Him the iniquity of us all when He was crucified to pay the price for our sins.

I pray and lift up our fellow Kingdom servants in China. Abba has opened the Door, that no man can close. I lift up my hands and pray for those fighting the good fight for their territory and their Country and for God’s Kingdom to come near and salvations, healings and deliverances to break out as Holy Spirit rests upon His people there and those globally who war in prayer for Chinese missionary/outreachers, I pray strength, Fire, and the Love of God to sustain them as they rush the open door being held by Jesus!!!! Praise the Lord for His fresh move, His Glory and Power that will surge from His people wearing His armor while fighting in Love for lost souls to know and receive the King of Kings and Lord of Lords!!!

Before this Coroanvirus plague broke out in Wuhan, I opened up a small note book and inside the front of it, was written that one Christian in the midst of a plague can bring hope and life. Now I say that is amazing because that is where they are right now! God Bless all those Christians on the front lines. Kingdom of God multiple in the midst of all this ultimate disaster!

Heavenly Father and Lord Jesus,
May the quarantine of the Chinese become an opportunity of prayer, stillness and dreams of Jesus who comes to save those who are seeking. As millions of Chinese citizens realize that the big powerful government bureaucracy cannot save them from a virus, may they come to the realization that their soul is loved by the God Who created them and desires an eternal relationship with them. I pray for the Yellow Angels and those who choose to pick up a tract and the intersection where Seeker meets Truth. And may that revelation lead to a great revival in China. In Jesus’ Name ~ Amen

The other day when I read the letter from ChinaSource.org : Letter from a Wuhan Pastor: Pray with Us — I was deeply impacted and woken up into the reality of the depth of the situation, and also the incredible movement that God is inspiring through this suffering. I had a migraine headache the day after and couldn’t move so I sat very still as I was getting better, and could do nothing, so I continued praying for Wuhan. God’s Holy Spirit took me deep into intercession as I wept and prayed for my brothers and sisters there and for the unsaved. I “saw” in my mind God’s glory cloud over Wuhan, and I just prayed deeply and prayed also in the Spirit. I cannot remember all my words, but it was real and it was heart-wrenching, yet with a glorious hope. I prayed that God’s glory would descend upon Wuhan and go to every door, and into every home and touch every heart. Now we read about the bold Christians on the streets passing out tracts and masks and sharing the gospel and the precious “yellow angels.” I am deeply amazed and happy for this. Go WUHAN indeed. as you say: God is for you, who can be against you?! For who can stand against the Lord???!!

As Reverend Choo said: “What is our real sickness? It is inside us; the condition of our souls. That is what Christ came to save us from.”

O death, where is your victory?
O death, where is your sting?”

For sin is the sting that results in death, and the law gives sin its power. But thank God! He gives us victory over sin and death through our Lord Jesus Christ.”

From the USA we are praying for you China! and standing with you. The Church in America loves you China! YOU are bold in Christ! and we are inspired by you! May the Lord continue to shelter you under His Wings.

    I cannot tell you how much I am in agreement with you and our Chinese brothers and sisters. May the Lord prosper the Good News through these dear brothers and sisters. May they be supernaturally protected and survive to further continue their quest.

    Also, I pray for a “loaves and fishes” miracle over them that the supply of masks and anything else they are distributing may never run out. Amen.

Father God, I thank You for those in China who are brave enough to stand for You in such a hostile environment. I pray for their continued protection. I pray for America’s protection as well. Most of what we get and use is ‘Made in China’. I pray that we will continually look to You for our help. You are our only REAL HOPE. In Jesus’ Name. AMEN

Let Your Name be glorified throughout all of China! May Your power enable our brothers and sisters to rise above fear and to go out in the highways and byways to lay hands on the sick that they be healed, and to raise the dead! May the fear of God fall upon all in China. We release the news media from captivity, that they broadcast the miracles being wrought by the Church. May revival so transform China that they are saved in a day. Father God, remember the blood of the martyrs. May their blood result in a huge harvest that no man can number. Bless China to be a sheep nation.

We love our brothers and sisters in China. We love their meekness and their servant hearts. We thank You for the anointing upon them to minister to the needs of their fellow countrymen in love and in meekness. We bless them to speak truth and to share the gospel. Thank You for softening the hearts of the Chinese people through this virus. Let no virus touch Your Church. Let it be for a testimony, as it was in Egypt when the children of Israel did not suffer the plagues that others suffered.

We bring our brothers and sisters In China before You today and ask that You supernaturally infuse each one of them with Your bold truth and give them a revelation of Your power within them to shine Your light in the midst of persecution and pestilence. Just like in the days that Your great hand brought the Israelites out of Egypt, bring China out of bondage as You pour out Your Spirit over their land. Do it again God! Amen!

I’ve been praying for the church in China for years. When they first got saved many had to keep silent. I met someone from China and there two daughters who came here Thirty years ago. They said please pray for the underground church in China.I have been. When I first heard of the the virus I prayed that none of the Christians would get it. I prayed they would lay hands in the sick and people would be healed. PTL they are yellow angels spreading the gospel. They are the hidden church and a great revival will come to China.

Wow! I just prayed about this yesterday with no earthly knowledge that it was happening! During my morning prayer, I prayed for the strong believers who are spreading the word of the Lord in China during this time. I prayed God would strengthen them and give them courage. I had an image of a great awakening and harvest in China. Lord, may your will be done and may the people of China be freed and declare you name above all. You are the great Hope among tragedy! You are the light shining in the darkness! You are the rock on which we stand! Let’s all pray for our brothers and sisters spreading God’s word in the face of fear and hopelessness. Joshua 1:9 “Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.”

And we are witnesses to these things, and so also is the Holy Spirit whom God has given to those who obey Him Acts 5:32
And they conquered him by the Blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, for they loved not their lives even unto death Rev12:11
In a land of persecution and darkness, We and Holy Spirit are witnesses to those believers living out their faith in our beautiful Savior, Jesus
They Are living testimonies! O Father, we cry out to You on behalf of Your people living out their Faith in You under terrible circumstances!
Therefore do not be ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me, His prisoner, but share with me in the sufferings for the Gospel according to God, Who has saved us and called us with a Holy Calling, not according to our works but according to His own purpose and grace which was given to us in Christ Jesus before time began………2Tim 1:8-9
Father, We Praise andThankYou for living examples of Your love and Power being lived out in China and everywhere! ThankYou for the selflessness of so many including the young Doctor , husband and father who died trying to warn in December of this terrible virus and would not abandon his patients. We give Glory to You Father, Son and Holy Spirit for what You are accomplishing in China through Your Faithful Ones.
We ask for Your Mercy, Your Peace,Your Protection Your Wisdom, and Your Power to show forth through the love and kindness of Your Body!
In The Beautiful Name of Your Son, Yeshua, Jesus
