JCEM of Myanmar team praying and believing that something taking place now in whole nation and whole situation is turning around in such a time as this. We are seeing that God is moving Burma with such a fantastic move of the Holy Spirit and fire!
Myanmar is made up of 135 national races, of which the main national races are Kachin, Kayah, Kayin, Chin, Bamar, Mon, Rakhine and Shan. Population is estimated to be over 60 million. There are more than 100 ethnic groups in Myanmar. Some of the Ethnic groups are listed as Akha, Palaung, Padaung, Naga, Taron, Eng and many more near extinct tribes. The religions are Buddhist, Christian and Muslim. The major language is Myanmar, but minority ethnic groups have their own languages. English is widely spoken and understood.
History
The earliest primates known today as Pondaung Man, resided in Pondaung, northern Myanmar about 40 million years ago. After those era, many city states emerged, and then came the 3 empires. In the third century BC, Myanmar was already unified into one strong empire. The first Myanmar Empire was created by King Anawrahta of the Bagan Dynasty (1044-1077 AD). The second Myanmar Empire was created by King Bayinnaung of the Taungoo Dynasty (1551-1581 AD). The third Myanmar Empire was led by King Alaungpaya of the Konbaung Dynasty (1752-1760 AD). These three great kings were well-known in the Myanmar history for their bravery and good leadership. In 1885, King Thibaw, Queen Supaya Latt and the royal family were taken to Ratanagiri, India and Myanmar fell under the British Rule. Myanmar became a British Colony from 1885 until 1948.
The Time For many years Myanmar has been very isolated, much like North Korea. Its government, a military junta, has been very oppressive and cruel. Right now, Myanmar is wide open for tourists. They have realized the great benefits from tourism dollars and help from countries like the United States and Japan. To do so, they have had to make coming to Myanmar and doing business there safe and easy. In the past, those who traveled to Myanmar were in grave danger. Now, with the changes, a degree of freedom has come. People are allowed to openly worship any way they want. Overt evangelism is still against the law, but those who desire to convert on their own are allowed to do so. When these changes took place, the Christians of Myanmar started using the internet to reach out to their Christian brothers and sisters in the rest of the world. Their situation seemed hard to believe for many, but those who have been there have verified the great revival taking place and the beautiful Christian people God is raising up. American businesses are springing up all over Myanmar and Christians are becoming more bold.
The daily wage for a worker in Myanmar is only $5. Supporting a full-time pastor or church staff person only costs $150 a month. Orphans can be cared for approximately $40 per month. Housing, feeding and providing training for Bible School students can be done for $75 per month. Building in the outlying areas, because of the low daily wage, is so much less expensive. Families or small churches can make a large impact with what they can give. Those who come to visit, train and work along side the Christians in Myanmar can do so very economically. More can be done in Myanmar for less money than almost anywhere in the world.
A fertile field and faithful workers More than 90% of the people are not Christians, so there are millions of people to evangelize. An American Missionary Adoniram Judson made the first complete translation of the Bible from the original languages into Burmese, completed by 31 January 1834. After this, he continued to revise it. He completed a revision of the Old Testament on 26 September 1835, a revision of the New Testament on 22 March 1837, and a revision of the entire bible, published in quarto format, on 24 October 1840. Adoniram Judson first set foot in the Asian nation in 1813. He left an amazing Christian legacy not only for Burma, but the world.
