Letters from some of the Bible students behind bars

Most of you know about the ministry here in Moscow of Spiritual Freedom Russia. For over17 years Spiritual Freedom Russia has supplied biblical resources to prisoners here in Russia and the former CSI countries. Over 80,000 students behind prison bars have participated in bible correspondence school. Please pray for the ministry as we are at a time where can only wait on the Lord. In human terms we are really waiting on the financal resources to come in. But in reality  God tells us that we should wait not on the financal resoures, but wait on Him alone.

Isa 40:31 But those who wait on the LORD Shall renew their strength; They shall mount up with wings like eagles, They shall run and not be weary, They shall walk and not faint.

The word God chose to illustrate the word wait comes from the word bind as would be in a  rope with multiple  strands. As we yield (wait) our way to the Lord and look to  Him as our source, as the One who knows the next step we are to take. We then can take comfort as we rest in Him. Bound by the Father, bound by the Son and bound by the Holy Spirit. We are then pulled by His perfect plan, we no longer are a single strand trying to stand. We are surrounded by the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit Ec 4:12 Though one may be overpowered by another, two can withstand him. And a threefold cord is not quickly broken.

Thank you for your prayer support for Spiritual Freedom Russia.

The greatest decision in any humans life is when the person receives Lord Jesus Christ as a personal Savior
from sins. I have a joy to share with you. One of my inmates once came up to me and without saying a word took my book “The Good News” Bible study and started to read it. He told that he also wants to study the Bible. A few weeks ago he was a furious, violent atheist, but today he reads Bible every day. Learning the Bible he has come to Christ and received Salvation.
I’m humbly grateful, thanks to all of you.

Dear brothers and sisters, greetings with great holiday of Resurrection of Christ.
Your books helped me a lot. They stimulated me to study the Bible and I am very thankful for that.
I am sending you a list of people (20 people) from my cell block. They want to study too.

Hello to all of you at our most esteemed Spiritual Freedom!
We recently requested from you some literature and Bible correspondence studies from the servants of God Alexander and Dmitry (Staff of SFM)
We want to thank all Spiritual Freedom workers for the literature, which you’ve sent us, and to wish you and your organization only the best .We, as soon as we received your packages were very happy and thanked God for He has heard us. Because this prison is in such a remote place we are far away from any fellowship and there is nobody to talk about the Bible. On the very first day, my friend Alexander and I, have started to work on our first lessons. We will be praying for all of you at Spiritual freedom.
Sincerely and warmly in our hearts, servants of God, Dmitry & Alexander
