LIFE IS TOO SHORT – WHERE IN NEPAL

News

It was our time to head into the mountains—to do outreach and take the opportunity to walk along the newly constructed trail roads. The local Nepali leaders were full of passion, eager to reach places where the gospel has rarely been heard. They also hoped to follow up with new believers who are standing alone in their faith, to encourage them, strengthen them, and equip them to continue growing in Christ—and boldly share the good news with their communities.

After we arrived last night in this cold, misty mountain area, we gathered for prayer. Physically, I wasn’t feeling well, and I honestly didn’t think I could manage all the intense climbing required to reach the homes scattered across these remote villages. So I prayed, asking God to intervene and make a way.

Then suddenly, a church leader and a government official came with unexpected news:
“A new believer passed away today. He was only 41 years old. When the community heard that you were here, they invited you to attend the funeral. This man specifically requested a Christian service.”

In that moment, I sensed the Lord answering my prayer. Instead of climbing from mountain to mountain, He opened a way for many to hear the gospel in one gathering.

The next morning, it happened just as we had prayed. Many gathered. The good news of Jesus Christ was shared boldly. This one man, though young in age and faith, remained steadfast. He chose to follow Jesus even when no one else around him did. His death became a testimony:

“ONE DEATH OF A NEW BELIEVER BROUGHT MANY TO CHRIST!”

Now, on my second day in the mountains of Makwanpur, Nepal, I’m reminded again that LIFE IS TOO SHORT. Without Christ, life truly is just a vapor in the wind.

Please continue to pray for us—we’ll be leading more training today. May the gospel go deeper and further.

Expanding the Ministry of Prayer

News

I am Jhovan Juromay, serving with Mission Motivators, assigned to Houses of Prayer Training and Mobilization since 2009. I was sent out for this task, and by God’s grace, the mission has grown significantly. As of the end of 2024, we now have established prayer centers and bases operating across different regions:

  • Prayer Center for All Nations, Roxas, Isabela
  • Mountain of Praise Lighthouse to the Nations, Makilala, North Cotabato
  • Glory Prayer House, Mercedes, Zamboanga City
  • Intercessory Equipping and Mobilization Base, Tukuran, Zamboanga del Sur

These bases serve as recharging centers for the Body of Christ—equipping intercessors, mobilizing prayer warriors, and strengthening the Church through the power of prayer. I am deeply thankful for the grace of the Lord and the leadership of Dr. Paul Kim and Ma’am Angela, who have been like spiritual parents in this journey of faith. Together with my family, we have experienced the Lord’s abundant grace in establishing these prayer bases across the country, raising up intercessors, and transforming communities through the power of the Prayer Altar.

Vision for 2025 and Beyond

Looking ahead, our mission is to:
✅ Develop and train new leaders for the prayer movement
✅ Establish more prayer bases across Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao
✅ Mobilize Prayer Mountains and Houses of Prayer to impact the Church nationwide
✅ Expand into international exposure and influence, as the Lord opens doors

We continue to witness miracles and testimonies as the Lord answers prayers—impossible things made possible, doors opened, provisions released, and divine empowerment for the work ahead. Truly, when we obey, His grace increases, and His presence remains with us.

We are excited for what’s to come—more intercessors, more prayer houses, a great awakening in the Body of Christ, and a mighty harvest among the nations.

Our team is filled with excitement and anticipation for what lies ahead. We are ready to conquer more territories for Christ, knowing that He is leading us every step of the way.

Book Review: Embracing All Nations by Dr. Paul D. Kim

News

Dr. Paul Kim’s book, Embracing All Nations, has touched hearts across the globe, inspiring believers to deepen their commitment to missions, prayer, and the Great Commission. Here are some reflections from readers:

“This book is a real gem, not only for missions but for all God’s people. It challenged me to spend long hours in prayer, read the Bible more intentionally, and embrace boldness in missions, especially in restricted countries. It’s one of the most profound books on missions I’ve ever read.” A reader from Italy

“From the first chapter, I felt the Lord’s presence speaking directly to me. It rekindled my passion for prayer and reminded me of the days I experienced open heavens. Even as I held the book, I felt its anointing. This is not just a book—it’s a vessel of God’s power. ” A Reader from Laos

“Dr. Kim, your book is Spirit-filled and anointed! It motivates me to see the harvest fields and engage in missions wholeheartedly. I pray it reaches many more people and continues to awaken hearts for the gospel.” A reader from the USA

“A must-read and share! Thank you, Dr. Kim, for writing such a powerful book that will inspire others to further the gospel.” A reader from the USA

“As a prospective missionary to Japan, Embracing All Nations gave me clarity and direction for my calling. The stories of perseverance and the practical guidelines in Chapter 10 were exactly what I needed to strengthen my vision for the mission field.” A reader from the Philippines

SEAL program for Leaders

News

Mission Motivators launched the SEAL (South East Asia Leadership) program following the SEAL Conference in Busan 2024, with a vision to equip Christian leaders from diverse sectors such as churches, education, NGOs, business, law, and politics across Southeast Asia.

Here’s what participants had to say:

“Mission Motivators is the perfect place to train Christian leaders and missionaries. With its ideal location on the island of Samal, trainees can focus fully on their preparation. I highly recommend this place for all leaders in Asia to be equipped for global missions.”

— Ptr. Syafrin Tiranda, S.Th., M.Th., Executive Director, Mission Motivators Papua

“The teachers at Mission Motivators helped us understand the lessons deeply, in a friendly and organized environment full of prayer. Dr. Paul and Madam Angella Kim manage the school with excellence. Students are trained not only for missionary life but also for the hard work of ministry. I believe this is the best school in Southeast Asia, and I plan to model my Bible school in Papua, Indonesia after it. God bless!”

— Ptr. Soleman Manufandu, M.Th., Senior Director, Manokwari Bible School

God has faithfully worked through the SEAL program. Pastors from Papua, Indonesia were the first participants in this trial program, and we celebrate their progress. Their spiritual leadership grew, and their English communication skills advanced dramatically—from no prior knowledge of English to preaching in the language within a three-week training period.

As we look ahead, we are preparing for more leaders to join next year’s SEAL Program. Additionally, we are constructing the “All Nations Center (ANC)” to better accommodate future participants and further prepare leaders for global missions. We invite you to stand with us in prayer as we continue this mission.

To God be all the glory!

Announcement:

The tentative dates for SEAL 2025 are July 7 to August 5, 2025, with a maximum of 18 participants from Southeast Asia.
