Each month VOM produces "The Jesus Freaks Minute," a daily radio-PSA that shares the stories of the persecuted church with Christian radio listeners all over the United States and around the world. Here's the script for one of the spots that will air next month, a spot entitled Prepare for Battle:
[LYRICS:] What will people think when they hear that I’m a Jesus Freak. What will people do when they find that it’s true.
[TOBYMAC:] Hey, this is TobyMac with truth every Jesus Freak should hear from the Voice of the Martyrs.
[VOM:] You know the scripture passage that challenges believers to resist the enemy by putting on the full armor of God: the belt of truth, breastplate of righteousness, shield of faith, helmet of salvation, and Sword of the Spirit.
But the very next verse doesn’t instruct you to charge into battle.
Instead Ephesians 6:18 says -- quote – “Pray in the Spirit at all times and on every occasion. Stay alert and be persistent in your prayers for all believers everywhere.”
Did you hear that? We are to prepare for battle and then pray. For more on prayer – including how to get your own 2014 VOM Prayer Calendar -- go to persecution.com.
