Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Instead, fear the One who can destroy both soul and body in hell. Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? Yet not one of them will fall to the ground apart from the will of your Father. And even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. So do not be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows. (Matthew 10:28-32)
Jesus gives reason for terror and for joy. His words above remind us that we are opposed by adversaries that can do us great physical harm even death and, worse than that, there is a hell and that some will go there after death. He also reminds us that God values us greatly and has made the way for us to not only escape hell but to be with him now and forever.
Knowing that, Worldlink’s partners are bringing the bad news of danger and punishment and the good news of salvation and joy to unreached people in 38 countries. As you pray through this month’s Prayerlink, you will see that the Lord is bringing people to himself even in the midst of the pandemic. Please join us in praying that He would bring more and more fruit.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!
Okay, you can be forgiven for not realizing that today is the first day of Worldlink‘s 2020–21 ministry year. There are a few other things going on in the world that might be a little distracting.
But, we are remarkably excited about what God has planned for us in the next 365 days. In the midst of our broken and hurting world, God has been doing great things and we think you will agree with us when we say that he will continue.
As you look at each bit of exciting news and pray through each daily request in the July Prayerlink, remember to look forward also and pray that God would pour out his Spirit and bring people to wholeness from their brokenness in the new ministry year.
