REVIVAL AND BIBLES SPREADING THROUGHOUT VENEZUELA

Reported by Russell Stendal

The desire for Bibles in Venezuela requires frequent trips up to the Colombia-Venezuela border. Colombian Christians make these trips to distribute Bibles, while others work to beef up radio installations to broadcast the gospel of Jesus across the region. Even though tensions are high between the two countries, the authorities on both sides of the border are bending over backwards to help us place large quantities of Bibles and gospel materials into Venezuela. Some authorities assist us to distribute them all over the country.

The only limiting factor are funds to print more materials.

The revival that is taking place inside Venezuela is genuine and highly contagious. At this very critical time, we want to be able to get as many Bibles into Venezuela as possible. Falling world oil prices are putting even more social pressure on the extremely depressed economy. It is clear, under the current circumstances, that the economic and political situation in Venezuela is not sustainable. We don’t know how Venezuela will solve this pressure. We believe it is possible that so many people could genuinely turn to God that it will dramatically improve the future of the entire country.

Of particular interest, is the fact that large evangelistic meetings are taking place among virtually all of the military units. We are contemplating republication of our special New Testament camouflage pocket Bible that are designed to fit in a standard military uniform.

The Dream of A Bible

These Venezuelan women wept as they received a Jubilee Bible. One woman shared, “Last night I had a dream that the Lord was sending me a Bible!”

Ex-Guerrilla Helping Move Bibles into Venezuela

Until recently, this man was a guerrilla. His superior officers were shot and the rest of his unit who had been controlling the border crossing into Venezuela fled. He and his buddy dreamed that God was going to bless Venezuela and send Bibles. They ran into us, gave their lives to Christ and began to help move Bibles into Venezuela.

WHAT CHRISTIAN LEADERS ARE SAYING ABOUT BIBLES FOR VENEZUELA

THE WORD OF GOD WILL TRANSFORM VENEZUELA

I Have Never Seen a Country More Eager to Receive the Word of God.

 Virtually everyone wants a Bible, including the men and women of the Venezuelan Armed Forces.

When we set up events for Bible distribution, the people put on their very best clothes to attend. When they receive the Bible, they all love to celebrate. They dance and sing, and many weep.

Venezuelans are feeling extremely isolated; in many areas, cell phone service and internet have been downgraded or cut off. Power failures are common, while food and commodities are scarce. However, those who receive the Bible and interpret it in the light of the Holy Spirit soon become optimistic as they come into a personal relationship with the Lord. Instead of feeling sorry for themselves, they go about doing what they can to help others as they allow God to guide their steps.

Russell Stendal, Colombia Para Christo

I have been serving the Persecuted Church over 20 years.

As I visited the Venezuela/Colombia border, never have I seen such a hunger for God’s Word. The grace of God presently working in the hearts of Venezuelans is an unusual window in history, and our prayer is to fuel this flame of growing revival with two million Bibles.

David Witt, CEO, SOM International

Today it is more clear than ever before; entire nations can be shaken in the blink of an eye.

Through the Bibles for Venezuela Project, we hope to obtain the resources to shake this nation for the Lord and make the best investment that we can in the Kingdom of God.

Samuel Hernandez, Camp Water Industries

Brother, we are here to serve.

I will personally make sure that all these Bibles reach their proper destination. We are here requesting that you pray for us, and we will also be praying for you, according to Ephesians 6:18. The Word of the Lord has been going forth through our mouths and we are delighted now to also have His written Word.

Venezuelan Three Star General, Speaking to Russell

We are in the midst of a national nightmare.

God has shown me that the situation will get much worse before it gets better. This crisis is necessary in order to remove corruption and cleanse the country down to its very foundation. At the same time, I have been shown that God will once again bless our nation, beginning with widespread distribution of the Bible.

Venezuelan Police Officer

It seems strange to Western Christians that there is a shortage of Bibles in many countries.

And yet, we frequently hear Christians ask us to provide more Bibles. Christians in hostile and restricted regions treasure God’s word as we do our freedom – but it is in understanding God through His word real freedom is found. Therefore Bibles for Venezuela is a sound strategy to bring lasting hope to its beleaguered people.
