Dear Partner,
Grace and peace to you and yours.
I speak over you and yours: shalom, health and prosperity, and the prospering of your soul.
We just finished a great time at our Week of Increase. I believe we received more light than ever concerning the value of the Word and God’s will for increase. I encourage you to listen to it. One of our projects during this week was called “Nice to Have.” The Lord quickened to me that if we only ever sow to meet needs, we limit ourselves to that. But He, being the good Father that He is, desires us to enjoy more than the meeting of our needs. We are to believe in the God “Who richly and ceaselessly provides us with everything for [our] enjoyment.” (1 Timothy 6:17, AMP) Make our Father happy. Let Him bless you with more to enjoy!
We’ve included with this letter our recent series entitled The Joy of Faith. In scripture we see that the presence of joy reveals faith. First Peter 1:8 says, “…believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory.” (2 Corinthians 1:24, Philippians 1:25, Romans 15:13, Acts 16:34) To build faith is to increase joy. Joy is strength. Strength gives victory. So faith is the victory that overcomes!
Phyllis and I are stirred up about faith more than ever—real faith, that changes lives and pleases God. Believe with us for more light on the simplicity that is in Christ, and for discernment of what is real faith and what is “feigned” faith.
Thank you for your faith in us and your continuing partnership with this ministry. Our investments and labors are not in vain. Fruit is abounding. We receive a continuous stream of wonderful testimonies, and I believe it will be fruit that remains, to the glory of our great Lord and Master.
