INTRODUCTION
This article was sent to me by Ron Tyler.
It presents a detailed account of the martyrdom of a young believer in Sudan.
This young girl, savagely beaten and raped for hours as a consequence of her faith in Jesus [Yahshua] throughout the ordeal sang praises to her King and refused to tie until totally mutilated!
It demands of each one of us that WE answer the question - AM I READY TO DIE FOR MY SAVIOUR THE WAY SHE DID?
Am I willing to endure humiliation, beatings and torment and STILL sing praises to my King rather than compromise my testimony.
Am I spiritually in the place where I am willing to endure injustice and pain without crying out, without fighting back, without begging for mercy and without compromise?
I am not sure as I write this that I am spiritually in the place where this young girl was the day she died! ARE YOU?
A TESTIMONY REGARDING A LITTLE SISTER IN THE SUDAN
Please allow me to tell you the testimony of our Little Sister in Sudan. You will find the full story In Marshall's book of modern martyrs, "Their Blood Cries Out" (1-800-2299673). Not very long ago Sudanese Jihad Muslims in their antiChristian fury kidnapped a young Christian Sudanese girl, our Little Sister. As they began to verbally, physically and sexually abuse our precious Little Sister, she began to sweetly sing spiritual songs, hymns and psalms as the Spirit worked 1 Peter 4:12-19 in her.
vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv
***1Peter 4* lets us know that (v.12) Our beloved little sister was not astonished by the fiery trial which tried her as if it were a strange thing to happen to her. (v.13) Instead our Little Sister rejoiced in songs, hymns and spiritual songs, making melody in her heart unto the Lord as she was partaking of Christ's sufferings in her so that when Jesus returns she will be glad with Him with exceeding joy. (v.14) As our Little Sister was reviled and verbally abused for the blessed Name of her King Jesus, she was blessed because the Spirit of the Living God and His Glory rested on her as He rested on the apostles of Jesus on that day of Pentecost, as He rested on St. Stephen as he was being stoned to death.
Truly her tormentors blasphemed the Holy Name of Jesus, but Jesus was in her precious little body-heart-mind-soul, never having left her nor forsaken her, and He enabled her to glorify Him who suffered so much for her. (v.16) Our precious Little Sister suffered as a Christian and she was not ashamed of Jesus and she glorified her beloved Saviour with the sacrifice of the praise of her lips. (v.19) Our precious Little Sister committed her soul in worship and praise to her faithful Creator, Shepherd, Abba Father, King and Comforter.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
As they verbally abused her, beat her and raped her repeatedly she kept on sweetly singing / humming hymns and psalms to Jesus, apparently unphased by her abusers as Jesus was keeping His 1 Cor.10:13 promise to her.
vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv
From 1 Cor. 10:13 ** we know that she trusted that this testing / trial / proving *** which was taking her was a common human experience in this dark and sinful world that tortured to death her blessed Jesus. She trusted that the Jesus she loved was faithful to not allow her to be tested / tried / proven beyond that which He enabled her to bear, and that her blessed Jesus would make a way to escape it before it became to much for her to bear. She rested her soul in the palm of His hand and she sweetly sang to her Abba Daddy.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
After hours of emotional, physical and sexual abuse, during which she kept on sweetly singing / humming spiritual songs, psalms and hymns; these rabid and radical Jihad Muslims decided they had enough of her and shot her. She kept on sweetly singing / humming (Matt. 10:16-20, 27-32``) as the blood began to run out of the wound. Amazed that she seemed unphased, they shot her again to silence her. Apparently unphased she miraculously kept on sweetly singing / humming songs of praise and worship of Jesus as her life blood was leaving her body, a precious temple of the Holy Spirit.
Troubled and stunned her tormentors couldn't believe or understand what they were seeing and hearing of her who should be dying, and in a frenzied effort to silence her singing / humming one of these rabidly antiChrist Muslems took a machete / sword and chopped her throat ------- and finally she was silent, asleep in Jesus, safe in His almighty caring hand, that hand that was pierced for her. Bewildered and angry they dumped her body as if it were trash, well after Jesus' angels in glory had lovingly ministered to her spirit and she had met Jesus and entered into the presence of His eternal Love, Peace, Joy and Life.
Having died like her Lord, she now lives forever like her Lord. Ps 72:14```& Ps 116:15 tell us that Jesus redeemed her soul from such wicked violence because her blood and death was precious in the sight of Him who created Heaven and Earth, who holds the sun, moon and stars in place --- the God of all gods and the King of all Kings. This world was not worthy of such a blessed and wondrous Little Sister in Jesus.
vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv
Our precious Little Sister was of the Honor Society of Hebrews 11 ~~ (v.35) for she had been tortured, not accepting deliverance by her opressors so that she could obtain a better resurrection. (v.36) She had beed cruelly mocked and beaten like her beloved Jesus when He was hung and shamed before mankind. (v.37) She was tried, tested, proven, afflicted, tormented, made destitue and slain with a sword --- she who loved to go about her home and village barefoot and singing to her precious Jesus. (v.38) Indeed the world was not worthy of our precious Little Sister, for (v.13) she died in faith, not having received the promises, only seeing them from afar off ------ and loving them with all her heart, mind, soul and spirit.
Barefoot in her little African village, or dying at the hands of wicked and vile men, she was persuaded of the promises of her beloved Jesus, embraced them and freely confessed that she was a stranger and a pilgrim on this earth. Oh how she loved her Jesus and freely sang that she sought the Father's Land where King Jesus reigns (v.14). Singing in church, at the laundry, or while dying she was ever so mindful of that heavenly Land of Her Father and King. Therefore He, yes He, the One who lifted the highest mountains, the One who made the deepest depths, the One by Whom the entire universe is held together, yes He is not ashamed to be called her God, for He, yes He has prepared a city for her and her brethren (v.16), a holy city''' from God out of Heaven, prepared as a bride adorned, where Jesus will dwell with her and her brethren, and they will be His people'''. He will BE THERE to wipe away all tears from the eyes of His children, finally freed from death, from mourning, from crying out, and from pain.''' For He, yes He who loved her and her brethren will make all things new, will give them to drink of the water of Life freely, will freely bestow His riches in Christ Jesus on them, will be their Abba God and they will be His children.'''
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
I do so very much hope that Jesus will let me sing His glorious praises some forever day somewhere near our precious Little Sister. ThanK You Jesus for being such a wonderful King and God to us in this evil and heartless world of humans. Even so, come Lord Jesus.
FROM HIS WORD --------------- * 1Peter 4: 12 Beloved, do not be astonished at the fiery trial which is to try you, as [though] a strange thing happened to you, 13 but rejoice according as you are partakers of Christ's suffering, so that when His glory shall be revealed, you may be glad also with exceeding joy. 14 If you are reviled for [the] name of Christ, [you are] blessed, because the Spirit of God and of glory rests on you. Truly according to them, He is blasphemed, but according to you He is glorified. . . . 16 But if [one suffers] as a Christian, let him not be ashamed, but let him glorify God because of this. . . . 19 Therefore let those who suffer according to the will of God commit their souls in well-doing, as to a faithful Creator.
** 1 Cor. 10:13 No testing / trial / proving *** has taken you but [what is] common to man; but God [is] faithful, who will not allow you to be tested / tried / proven above what you are able, but with the testing / trial / proving also will make a way to escape, so that you may be able to bear [it] *** of 1 Cor 10:13 Strong's
1) an experiment, attempt, trial, proving
1a) trial, proving:
the trial made of you by my bodily condition, since condition served as to test the love of the Galatians toward Paul (Gal. 4:14)
1b) the trial of man's fidelity, integrity, virtue, constancy 1b4) adversity, affliction, trouble: sent by God and serving to test or prove one's character, faith, holiness
``Matt. 10:16 Behold, I send you out as sheep in [the] midst of wolves. Therefore be as wise as serpents and as harmless as doves. 17 But beware of men, for they will deliver you up to the sanhedrins, and they will scourge you in their synagogues. 18 And you shall be brought before governors and kings for My sake, for a testimony against them and the nations. 19 But when they deliver you up, take no thought how or what you shall speak; for it shall be given you in that same hour what you shall speak. 20 For it is not you who speak, but the Spirit of your Father who speaks in you. . . . . 27 What I tell you in darkness, speak in the light; and what you hear, proclaim on the housetops. 28 And do not fear those who kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul. But rather fear Him who can destroy both soul and body in hell. 29 Are not two sparrows sold for an assarion? And one of them shall not fall on the ground without your Father. 30 But even the hairs of your head are all numbered. 31 Therefore do not fear, you are of more value than many sparrows. 32 Then everyone who shall confess Me before men, I will confess him before My Father who is in Heaven.
```Ps 72:14 He shall redeem their soul from deceit and violence; and their blood shall be precious in His sight. Ps 116:15 Precious in the sight of the LORD [is] the death of His saints.
~~Heb 11:32 And what more shall I say? . . . . 35 Women received their dead raised to life again, and others were tortured, not accepting deliverance, that they might obtain a better resurrection. 36 And others had trial of [cruel] mockings and scourgings; yes, more, of bonds and imprisonments. 37 They were stoned, they were sawed in two, were tempted, were slain with the sword. They wandered about in sheepskins and goatskins, being destitute, afflicted, tormented. 38 The world was not worthy of them. They wandered in deserts and mountains and dens and caves of the earth. Heb 11:13 These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off. And they were persuaded of [them] and embraced [them] and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth. 14 For they who say such things declare plainly that they seek a fatherland. 15 And truly, if they had been mindful of that [country] from which they came out, they might have had opportunity to have returned. 16 But now they stretch forth to a better [fatherland], that is, a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for He has prepared a city for them.
'''Rev. 21:2 And I, John, saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down from God out of Heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her Husband. 3 And I heard a great voice out of Heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God [is] with men, and He will dwell with them, and they will be His people, and God Himself will be with them and be their God. 4 And God will wipe away all tears from their eyes. And there will be no more death, nor mourning, nor crying out, nor will there be any more pain; for the first things passed away. 5 And He sitting on the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And He said to me, Write, for these words are true and faithful. 6 And He said to me, It is done. I am the Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the End. To him who thirsts I will give of the fountain of the water of life freely. 7 He who overcomes will inherit all things, and I will be his God, and he will be My son.
