NICK VUJICIC IS STILL IMPACTING THE WORLD FOR CHRIST AND BRINGING GLORY TO GOD

Author and evangelist Nick Vujicic spoke with CBN’s Tré Goins-Phillips, delivering a bold message for America, urging the Western church to embrace the “basics” of the Gospel, prioritise discipleship, and embrace counselling for those suffering and struggling with sin. He urgently warned the “most crippling season” for the U.S. is impending, unless it turns back to God.

The nation needs to repent and return to God and His word, acknowledging that it is inerrant from Genesis to Revelation. Only then will it realise it is not practising church as Jesus intended, as described in the Book of Acts – house churches with disciples making more disciples.

NICK VUJICIC STARTING PROLIFE BANK

Evangelist and motivational speaker, Nick Vujicic, has announced that the bank he’s been working to launch to support pro-life efforts will be opening soon after years of planning.

ProLife Bank is an institution that aims to honor “God first, serving people, and always choosing to support life…ALL life,” according its website.

Vujicic and Betsy Gray are the bank’s co-founders, and according to the team, the ProLife Bank will finally be opening in the spring of 2024.

As CBN News reported, Vujicic began exploring the idea of starting-up a bank in 2018 after he was kicked out of his own bank for supporting the pro-life cause.

“I got kicked out of a bank with no warning. They froze my credit cards, froze my debit cards,” he said. “They gave me a letter to say that they did a review of me as a client and they don’t want anything to do with me.”

The pro-life advocate chose to take on the project with Gray to educate others by exposing banking networks that partner with abortion providers.

“We want to tell everyone, yeah, there’s a choice coming for you,” Vujicic told the Epoch Times at the time. “And not only will this be a for-profit bank, we are actually known as a for-giving bank. We will not fund abortion, but we’ll actually fund 50 percent net profits to Judeo-Christian-aligned nonprofit organizations that are biblically aligned in doing the will of God according to our belief systems.”

Vujicic shared that starting the bank has come with many challenges. In a newsletter update in July, the group announced they were having problems raising capital for the bank.

“It has proven much more challenging than we thought to find investors interested in the banking industry, especially in the current banking environment. We are pressing on, however, and will not give up,” reads the update. “We all need ProLifeBank now more than ever! We ask for and appreciate your prayers for breakthrough and covering; as you must know, the pushback is tremendous. ProLifeBank is God’s bank, and His timing is perfect.”

Since then, Gray and Vujicic have found a business partner that has helped them be able to launch next spring. 

“We are opening as an online bank as fintech because of our business partner’s chartered sponsorship opportunity,” he shared. “This is great news for you and me and all around the nation.” 

The business partners believe that God is building “His bank, in His timing – the perfect timing.” 

GOD USES SUFFERING

God often uses suffering for His purposes, even Christians, to purge sin from our lives. The suffering causes us to stop and re-evaluate our lives. Holy Spirit conviction comes upon us and we realise we have grieved Him and quenched His work in our lives, This invariably leads to repentance and make us realise how dependent we are upon God’s grace. It will also lead to a lot of other good things in our lives, greater discernment, greater sensitivity to things of the Spirit, transformed minds, wisdom, expanded hope, increased desire to spend time in His Word and to know the truth, teach us to give thanks in all circumstances, increased faith, strengthened character. Hopefully, when we see God transforming our lives in these ways we will come to the conclusion that the suffering was worth it.

Quadriplegic painter Joni Eareckson Tada shares ‘life-changing’ words on anniversary of her diving accident

Not all of us have had to suffer like Joni Eareckson Tada but she wrote in he book When God Weeps: “Before my paralysis, my hands reached for a lot of wrong things, and my feet took me into a lot of bad places. After my paralysis, tempting choices were scaled down considerably. My particular affliction is divinely hand tailored expressly for me. Nobody has to suffer ‘transverse spinal lesion at the fourth-fifth cervical’ exactly as I did to be transformed to His image.”

How about Nick Vujicic born without arms and legs. He tried to take his own life at age eight in four inches of water. Thank God he was unsuccessful, hundreds of thousands maybe even more will be in God’s Kingdom because of the testimony of this man.

Nick just wants the world to know that God is real and hope is real.

In this video Nick poses important questions: ” Maybe right now your crisis has to do with your family, relationships, maybe your job. And as a society facing uncertain times, we kind of get stopped in our tracks. We put our confidence in what we normally accept as normal–that we have a job, that we go to school, that we have people in our life. What happens when we put confidence in things or people and they’re taken away? Where do we get our strength from, and where do we find our hope? Jesus is the greatest cure of all.

Nick Vujicic – A man of God

Nearly 30,000 men attended the 2021 Promise Keepers Men’s Conference last weekend in Dallas, Texas with hundreds of churches hosting even more men online.

The two-day event aimed to bring a positive message that would inspire transformation and empower men so they could return home equipped to lead their families, communities, and country.

The conference took place at the AT&T Stadium, home field of the Dallas Cowboys, and featured a special panel of prominent speakers including Nick Vujicic.

David Closson, director of the Center for Biblical Worldview with the Family Research Council, said it was a powerful sight to see men committing their lives to Christ in such an extraordinary place.

“Here is a stadium known for football, but instead of beer and profanity, it was filled with men confessing their sins, praying and praising God,” he said. “It was encouraging to see men kneeling at the 50-yard line on the Dallas Cowboy star, surrounded by thousands of men on their knees, crying out to God. That stadium became a sanctuary.”
