Dear Friends & Co-Laborers,
God’s Word declares in Genesis 8:22 “As long as the earth
endures, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer
and winter, day and night will never cease.” Friends, this
is good news for us! In this world that we live in and with the
current pressures our economy is facing, many of us are being
challenged financially, mentally, and for some, spiritually. Its
very easy to believe God and His Word when things are going
smooth and there is not a cloud in sight. However, our faith is
put to the test when everything seems upside down and the
clouds are hovering. Be encouraged and continue to be in faith
because regardless of the circumstances, God’s Word is true!
People often confuse what is a known fact with the truth. The
fact may be that the economy is failing; but the Truth is that we
are more than conquerors! The fact may be that your source
of income has been cut; but the Truth is that Jehovah Jireh is
the Lord our Provider! What do you choose to believe today?
The facts or the Truth? It’s the Truth that sets us free! Abraha
m was counted righteous because of His faith in the Truth of
God’s spoken Word. He did not even have the written Word to
stand on- he was the one being written about! All Abraham had
was a spoken Word from God, and by his faith, he inherited the
promises of God! How much more should we stand unwavering
in our faith- we who have received God’s promises of the New
Testament; we who have the written Word of God; we who
have the Holy Spirit!
By solid faith we must put
God’s eternal principles to work!
His principle regarding seedtime and harvest has always been
and will always be. It has never not worked! The Father God
clearly demonstrated this principle to us through the ultimate gift
of His Son: “I assure you, most solemnly I tell you, Unless
a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains
[just one grain; it never becomes more but lives] by itself
alone. But if it dies, it produces many others and yields a
rich harvest.” (John 12:24)
God sacrificially proved this everlasting principle to us with His

most precious possession! “For God so loved the world
that He gave His one and only son that whosoever would
believe in Him would not perish but have everlasting life”
(John 3:16). He loved us so much and believed so much in this
principle that He was willing to give up that which was most
important to Him. There was no doubt in Him of what His costly
Seed would produce once It died.
You see, there can be no resurrection if there is first no death.
You cannot resurrect a living thing; you can only resurrect a
dead thing. Likewise, there can be no testimony without the
test; there can be no victory without the fight. The good news
is that we know the back of the Book and that we have already
won! However, the reward of victory does not come to those
who play it safe and sit on the sidelines; it comes to those
who are in the heat of the battle and who give their all for their
cause.
We know our cause: our cause is Christ’s- “to seek and to save
those who are lost” (Luke 19:10). This is what we continue to
do in the nations of the world. We sow our seeds: our time, our
labor, our finances, our life because we know that as long as the
earth remains, there will be harvest from this seed. We ask you
to continue with us in your faithful sowing of seed! Now is more
important than ever because the harvest does not care about
the world’s economy; it only knows that it must be reaped! Let
us lay up for ourselves treasures in heaven where moth and rust
cannot destroy and where thieves cannot
break through and steal!
Seed is absolute power: it must multiply
exactly what it is. You can be sure of
this: nothing multiplied by nothing is still
nothing; but one seed has the potential to
multiply indefinitely! Friends, we are making
an impact on this side of eternity and we
are doing it with you! Thank you for your
consistent prayers and financial support as
we reach the nations for Christ! May the
Truth of God’s promises be established in your life today!
All our love,
