“Dr David Yonggi Cho (1936-2021), went home to the presence of our Lord Jesus this morning.
When I first encountered the love of God & the ‘secret place’, I purchased “Prayer the Key to Revival” by Dr Cho, it changed the trajectory of my life. I still have that book, (now out of print) & often go back to it…
Upon meeting Dr Cho I was humbled by his kindness & sweet spirit, in awe of his quiet strength & internal joy… but stirred in my spirit & encouraged by the value he placed on prayer.
I’m so grateful to you Dr Cho, thank you
“One of my great heroes of the faith has gone on to his reward! I had the privilege of being with him on several occasions! Great multitudes will be in heaven because of his obedience to the Holy Spirit and prayers! I was in South Korea at his church twice and was overwhelmed at what I saw and experienced. I prayed on Prayer Mountain where there was the greatest open heaven I have ever encountered. Thank You Jesus for David Yonggi Cho!
