People were responding and coming in for prayer and a snack. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unfortunately, we had another incident,  a homeless man did not agree with Logen&#8217;s preaching and started to abuse us. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We immediately knew this was a spiritual attack as he was trying to get us to react negatively, baiting us, but we didn&#8217;t respond to the enemy&#8217;s attack but recognising it for what it was. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We just blessed him, giving to him all that we have, which is God&#8217;s love. He even spat in Brother Pio&#8217;s face, but we stood on The Rock of Jesus and were not shaken. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He eventually left and we continued on, sharing God&#8217;s perfect love in Jesus Christ to the public.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We share these incidences with you (not all of them) to give you an idea of the spiritual atmosphere we face every day, and the forces or evil that come against our Lord Jesus and His Name.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-accent-3-color\"><strong>2 Timothy 3:12 NKJ<\/strong> Yes, and&nbsp;all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will suffer persecution.<\/mark><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-accent-3-color\"><strong>Mathew 5:44-48 NKJ<\/strong>.

We handed out a few bibles and discipleship manuals as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We did see a photographer taking photo&#8217;s, but we don&#8217;t know what that is about. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We were there on the street from 10.30am till 4.00pm, so a good length of time. There were many divine appointments as 116 people made the decision to accept Jesus as their Lord and Saviour, glory to Jesus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was another fruitful day as You Holy Spirit took over and had Your way through Souls For Christ. We thank You Lord Jesus for all the beautiful people You drew into Yourself. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We trust that You will do a great work in Your chosen ones.
