Chapter Twenty-Seven

PART 27: The Flying Menace in Norway" // "Medvedski”

___________________________________________________

The Flying Menace in Norway

[Previously:]


“You sure have strong faith in God’s power. I wish I had that faith,” Inga said from the shadows of the bush she was hiding under.

“You can have that faith,” Karl said, “by just simply making the choice to believe God over how you feel. And, you will see God work powerfully. Faith is really just a choice. It is not a feeling.”

Karl, Inga, Toben, Elise, and Abdul were in a forest in Norway seeking to escape the communistic authorities of the new authoritarian puppet government. They had just met a young, Muslim family who had fled from authorities since the man of the household, Musa, had stolen 150,000 rubles*. [* It is roughly $5,000 U.S. dollars. In the future, 30 rubles will be roughly equal to one dollar from 2017. That is what God showed this writer.]

(Forest at night. Click for source.)
“So, you’re saying that faith has nothing to do with having a feeling that you have faith?” Inga said.

Faith is a decision to trust God over how you feel,” Karl said without any hesitation.

[Read how Karl escaped a communist prison in Part 21.]

A buzzing sound reached Karl’s ears and he looked up. Turning around, he noticed a dark object blotting out part of the early night sky. Stars were just starting to appear but the moon had not risen above the horizon yet. It was a large, armed, quad-rotor drone, and it was now approaching Karl and his friends with the certainty of having spotted its targets. It was in the air 280 yards away. [Read about this in Part 26.]

“Everyone, get down! A drone is coming!” Elise shouted from another bush a few yards away.


_______  _______  _______


[Now:]

“There is no need to fear. God protected Daniel in the lions’ den. And, God protected us earlier from a drone,” Karl said as he stooped to pick up a round rock on the ground.

“You’re right, Karl. The bullets it fired at us fell to the ground. I am going to act in faith regardless of how I feel,” Elise said before she started crawling out of the bushes. She stood to her feet.

With leaves in her hair, she stood straight and began praying.

The drone was now 100 yards away and slowly closing.


Abdul walked toward Elise and began silently praying a short distance from her. Toben quickly approached them with a smile on his face and said, “God is going to work a mighty victory for us. I feel that I need to pick up something like stone.”

“I felt the same thing,” Karl said holding a stone in his right hand.

Then, to Karl’s surprise, another drone appeared, hovering just above the tree tops to his left.

Toben hurried over to a small group of scattered rocks and selected one. At any moment the drone could open fire.

“The armies of darkness will never be able to overcome the God of light, who gives us the victory through Jesus Christ, His Only Begotten Son,” Karl said before he prepared to throw the stone.

Even if he hit it, he knew, naturally speaking, that the drone was strong and could take such a hit. But, if God was with him in throwing the stone, it would destroy the drone like the stone from David’s sling hitting Goliath.

A rotary autocannon on the belly of the drone locked its sights on Karl. In two seconds from then, it would light up the night with bright bursts of deadly heavy machine gun fire. But just then, Karl threw the rock with all his might and the stone accelerated faster than he could naturally throw it. It was sped up to the speed of a bullet, defying the laws of physics.

Before the autocannon turned on, the fast-moving stone punched through the drone’s tough metal shell and crushed its onboard computer. It fell to the ground, tumbling from branch to branch until it landed with a thud on the forest floor. Its ruptured metal “carcass” lay motionless.

The second drone was unaffected by Karl’s miraculous pitch and the unnatural acceleration of the stone.

“Burrr!” It’s autocannon opened fire and a spray of bullets began tearing into the dirt, chewing up the logs in the fire pit, and heading toward the tents and people. Karl didn’t budge from his spot, and neither did Elise, Abdul, or Toben. But, Inga and the Muslim family hunkered down in bushes, trembling and gazing with wide open eyes at the people standing in the open. Children cried.

Bullets flew toward Karl and the others who were standing and praying. But, none of them hit their mark. Then, Toben took aim and chucked his stone. It picked up speed mid-flight, defying the laws of physics, like the previous stone, and knocked the drone out of the air, ripping its center in half. It landed with a thump behind some bushes.

The group breathed out sighs of relief and some gave low whistles. [Read how this group first entered the story in Part 20.]

“Praise Abba Father God!” Elise said, excitedly after a few seconds. Others joined in, praising God for His awesome works.

“That was another amazing miracle,” Abdul added jumping up and down, clapping his hands. “Father God is truly awesome!”

“Where is Inga?” Toben said.

“She’s hiding in those bushes,” Elise said, pointing toward a cluster of bushes a short distance away.

Toben approached the bushes and leaned down. “Inga, are you in there?” he said.

“Yes, but I’m scared,” she said.

“Elise is out here,” Toben said. “What are you afraid of?”

“I’m afraid of getting seriously wounded,” Inga said as she began pushing through the bushes. Then, she stood up and dusted leaves and twigs off of her baggy hiking trousers.

“God has been protecting us all this time, Inga. He is covering us with His wings, so to speak, like Psalm 91 says,” the Nigerian said gently. “Besides, Jesus said that He came to heal all who are sick or injured, or who are emotionally hurt, who turn to Him. That is in Isaiah 61:1-3 and Luke 4:17-21. And, in Matthew 20:28, Jesus said that He is with us always, even to the end of the world.”

“But, does Jesus really heal people today?” Inga said.

“In Hebrews 13:8, the Holy Spirit tells us, through the writer, that Jesus is the same yesterday, today, and forever,” Toben said. “So, what He did back then, He shall indeed do today, and He does today. In Mark 16, Jesus said that certain signs would follow those who believe. This is not just speaking of the 12 apostles. In Mark 11:21-25, Jesus said that whosoever shall ask of God whatsoever, and believes God for it, it will happen.”

“Does that mean that if I ask God to give me lots of expensive stuff, He will?” Inga said.

“If you are asking for that stuff to lavish on yourself, then it would not give God the glory, would it?”

“No,” Inga said, shaking her head.

Toben said, “In John 14:12-14, Jesus essentially said the same thing about prayer from Mark 11, but He also said that the prayer will be answered if it gives God the glory, and is asked in the Name of Jesus. That is, praying for something to happen with the goal of giving God the glory is the key to seeing it happen. As an example, praying for the healing of the sick or the provision of food or clothing would give God the glory. And, being persistent and patient is another key to receiving the answer to the prayer.”

(Click here to read this story in a PDF format.)
“Hum,” Inga said. “Wasn’t that just for the 12 apostles? I’m not one of the 12 apostles. So, why should God answer my prayer?”

Toben said: “Stephen, the first Christian martyr, could release miracles in Jesus Christ’s Name, even though he was not one of the 12 apostles. Ananias, in Acts 9, released God’s healing of Paul’s* eyes. Ananias was not one of the 12 apostles either. Isaiah 53:4-5 tells how Jesus bore our grief and sorrows. The Hebrew word for grief, choli, in Isaiah 53:4, includes sicknesses and infirmities in its meaning. And, Matthew 8:16-17 tells how Jesus healed all who were sick to fulfill the prophecy in Isaiah 53 about taking people’s sicknesses and infirmities on Himself. Jesus never stopped that ministry.”

[* He changed his name from Saul to Paul.]

“I have been having a mild headache off and on for the last forty minutes,” Inga said. Will God remove it?”

“Her certainly will,” Toben said, “if you make the choice to believe. It is a choice and not a feeling.”

“Okay,” Inga said, “I will choose to believe that God will take it from me.”

“Father God,” Toben said, lifting his hands toward heaven, “in the Name of Jesus Christ, the Name above all names, I command this headache to leave Inga, your daughter.”

Inga frowned and placed a hand on her right temple. “Nothing happened, Toben. I still feel the headache.”

“Just continue to believe God, and it will go,” Toben said. “Jesus told the 70 disciples--including us--in Luke 10:19 that we have power over all the power of the enemy. Acts 10:38 tells how Jesus healed all who were oppressed of the devil because God was with Him. The devil is the one who keeps people from receiving miracles. So, submit to God, resist the devil, and He will flee from you*. Place your trust only in God.” [* See James 4:7.]

“Okay,” Inga said. “I will put my trust in God to heal me.”

Half a minute later, she said excitedly, “It’s gone! The headache is gone!”

“Praise God!” Toben said.

“What happened?” Karl and Elise said in unison.

“My headache is gone!” Inga said, excitedly. “Toben prayed for me and rebuke the headache in the name of Jesus.”

Bushes a few dozen yards away rustled and Musa emerged, followed by his wife and two children. The Syrian approached the Christians and cleared his throat.

“Something happened that I cannot explain,” Musa said, “except to say that Allah must have protected you for some reason. We saw you throw a rock at the drone and heard it crash to the ground. That was superhuman.”

“Musa,” Toben said, turning to the Syrian, “the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Jacob healed Inga. The God of Abraham sent those rocks at a high speed and in a perfect trajectory to destroy the drones. And, the God of Abraham protected us from the bullets. His Name is Jesus.*” [* In John 10:30, Jesus told the people these words: “[30] I and my Father are one.” After Jesus said that, people took up stones to make an attempt to kill Him, but they did not kill Him.]

“Jesus?” Musa said. “He is a great prophet, but He is not any more than that.”

“God’s Word, the Bible, teaches that Jesus is the Messiah, who came to fulfill prophecies about the Savior of the world,” Toben said. “Isaiah 9:6 speaks of the Messiah, Jesus. It says: ‘For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counseller, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.’”

There was a silent pause as Musa thought about that.

Then, Musa said, “I saw you and Karl each throw a stone at those drones, and they fell to the earth.” Musa pointed at the sky. “You must be professional pitchers in baseball.”

“I could never throw that well,” Karl said. “It was the God of David who gave me the strength to throw, and who had the rock impact the drone with such power and speed.”

“I think you’re right,” Musa said after a brief hesitation. “But, tell me, why did you pray in the name of Jesus?”

“We prayed in Jesus Christ’s Name,” Toben said, “because it is Jesus who purchased our healing and our salvation on a Roman cross about 2,000 years ago.”

Toben continued, saying: “Jesus told Martha these words in John 11:25-26: ‘[25] Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: [26] And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?’ Only Jesus can give us eternal life and cause our bodies to rise from the dead. And, only Jesus can bring true physical healing that has no side effects.”

Musa remained silent as he scratched his short beard in thought.

“Preaching in Medvedski”

(A Yamaha Sidewinder. Click for source.)

A blue Yamaha Sidewinder snowmobile drove slowly through the snow-covered streets of the Siberian town of Medvedski, Russia. Sergey, holding a handlebar with one hand and a megaphone with the other, was speaking through the megaphone, warning the village about judgment to come. [Read about Sergey Ulanov's return to Medvedski here in Part 16. Read about the character, Sergey Ulanov, here.]

He spoke through the speaker: “People of Medvedski, God wants you to repent from your sins and turn to Him. For, the future is going to be grim. There will be judgment coming on this village soon, unless we repent from our sins and turn to God with all our hearts. Repent, for God’s Kingdom is coming very soon.* Repent before it is too late!” [In Matthew 4:17 says: “From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.”]

As he drove down the streets, a few house doors opened and some men and women stepped out into the cold to see what was going on.

A woman cupped her hands and said loudly, “We don’t need to repent. We are perfectly fine. Take your megaphone and go somewhere else. What you’re doing is illegal, anyways.”

“We ought to obey God rather than men,”* Sergey said. “Judgment is coming to Russia and Siberia. You must repent to escape this judgment. If you don’t, you will not be spared. Please turn to God, repent, and make Jesus your Savior and Lord.” [*See Acts 5:29.]

“Shut up,” a man across from the lady’s house shouted angrily. “If you don’t, I will call the police.”

“You can call the police, but I will still obey what God is showing me to do,” Sergey said boldly.

Sergey moved on and continued calling out through his megaphone.

(GAZ Tiger. Click for photo source.)
As he drove through the town, a dark blue Gaz Tiger police truck turned onto the street in front of him and flashed its police lights as it pulled to a stop directly ahead of the snowmobile. Sergey stopped the Yamaha Sidewinder and waited to see what would happen. As he waited he prayed. His breath came out in puffs of vapor as he poured out his heart to God. 

Then, he pressed the megaphone trigger and said, “God is calling out to you people of Medvedski to repent and turn to Him before it is too late. Don’t wait for tomorrow. Today is the day of salvation. Repent because Jesus Christ will have to judge you if you will not make Him your Savior and Lord. And, Jesus wants you to be saved from the fires of Hell and to have eternal joy and everlasting life with Him.” [If you are interested in being saved through Jesus Christ and having a relationship with God, click here.]

The two front doors opened in the truck and two Russian police officers emerged, wearing ushankas and armed with the standard police gear. They approached both sides of his snowmobile with expressionless faces.

[Footnote: The Chinese are not the enemy, neither are the Russians. Both are people just like you and me. But, God will use Russia and China to judge wicked nations, which will not repent from their rebellion against Him. And, the devil will seek to stir up men to persecute the Church. But, God will deliver all who seek Him and trust in Him.]



EXCERPT from Part 28 ("Confrontation in Medvedski"):

 "... "... Sergey let go of his megaphone, since it was strapped to his wrist, and showed the officer both his hands, which were empty.

“I’m placing you under arrest for harming law enforcement officers,” the officer said, “and for interfering with police procedures, and for illegal proselytizing, and for being a member of an outlawed cult.*”

The man reached for some handcuffs on his belt. ..." (Read all of Part 28.)

[* Born-again Christians will be called various derogatory terms when communism returns to Europe.]
