Lahu Man Shocked by God 
Lahu people from a particular village in Northern Laos heard the gospel and were keen to learn more.  Over a period of months a number of people in the village had believed.  In fact, most of them believed except Mr. Y. 

 

Mr. Y ridiculed the believers and called them names. He threatened them and did his best to make life miserable for the new believers.  If this wasn’t enough he began to mock God, ridiculing His name.  What a bad idea. 

 

One day Mr. Y was driving a small Chinese tractor with a wagon hooked on to the back of it.  In the back a few of the new Christians were riding with him. As the drove along lightning struck the vehicle throwing Mr. Y clear out. He was knocked unconscious as the wagon kept going and fell into a ditch. None of the Christian women were hurt. When Mr. Y woke up he said, “This happened to me because I mocked your God. He must be very powerful. I must learn who He is and maybe I too will worship Him.”

• Praise God for the demonstration of His power in Mr. Y’s life.   Thank Him that while he taught Mr. Y a lesson, none of the Christians were even slightly hurt.
• Ask that Mr. Y will become a tremendous witness for Jesus Christ. Pray he will travel to other Lahu villages telling his testimony and urging them to believe in the true creator of heaven and earth.
• Pray that the Lahu Christians will grow in grace and maturity. Ask that they will be equipped for every good work of service so that God’s Kingdom will expand among their tribe throughout the province where they live.
