The Waodani used to be called Aucas. They were savage killers, who grew up hating and killing. They speared to death five missionaries in 1956. Afterwards, Nate Saint’s sister, Rachel, went to live with them. They heard about God’s carvings for the first time and began following God’s trail. You can read about it in End Of The Spear by Steve Saint.

Isaiah 53:6 says, “All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned, every one, to his own way; and the Lord has laid on Him the iniquity of us all.” Astray ~ leaving the path of righteousness laid out for us through God’s word.

Psalm 119:67 says, “Before I was afflicted I went astray, but now I keep Your word.”  We intentionally keep His word in our heart by resisting any thoughts of doubt, fear, or unbelief. Those fiery darts are strategically aimed at our faith to derail us.
