Dear Partner,
At the time of this writing, I am at our prayer cabin just two miles from where the love of my life was born Feb. 12, 1942. We came into this world 498 miles and five years apart. I was born Dec. 6, 1936, in Lubbock, Texas. We met Oct. 8, 1961, in Little Rock, Ark. We entered into the covenant of marriage Friday, April 13, 1962, and we accepted Jesus as our LORD and Savior six months later. And, in January 1963, we both received the Baptism in the Holy Spirit and spoke in tongues as the Spirit gave us utterance. Then we went to Oral Roberts University in Tulsa, Okla., in 1967, 57 years and one month ago.
This year, Partner, KCM is standing on victory’s shore. We will step on out in Faith into the deep, and many souls we will reap. How does Faith do that? Let’s go to The BOOK and see what the Holy Spirit had to say through the Apostle Paul in his letter to the Romans in Chapter 4:16-17:
- Therefore it is of faith, that it might be by grace; to the end the promise might be sure to all the seed; not to that only which is of the law, but to that also which is of the faith of Abraham; who is the father of us all,
- (As it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations,) before him whom he believed, even God, who quickeneth the dead, and calleth those things which be not as though they were.
Calling things that be not as though they were is a struggle for most Christian people, especially those who are not familiar with the law of Faith. Let’s go to Chapter 3 and read verse 27:
- Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? Nay: but by the law of faith.
Galatians 5:6 says that Faith works by Love. This is so important for the 10 months that lie ahead of us. The Amplified Bible, Classic Edition makes Romans 4:17 very clear:
- As it is written, I have made you the father of many nations. [He was appointed our father] in the sight of God in Whom he believed, Who gives life to the dead and speaks of the nonexistent things that [He has foretold and promised] as if they [already] existed.
“Nonexistent things that [He has foretold and promised] AS IF THEY [ALREADY] EXISTED”! Glory to God! Genesis 17:1-5 in the New Living Translation says:
- When Abram was ninety-nine years old, The LORD appeared to him and said, “I am El-Shaddai—‘God Almighty.’ Serve me faithfully and live a blameless life.
- I will make a covenant with you, by which I will guarantee to give you countless descendants.”
- At this, Abram fell face down on the ground. Then God said to him,
- “This is my covenant with you: I will make you the father of a multitude of nations!
- What’s more, I am changing your name. It will no longer be Abram. Instead, you will be called Abraham, for you will be the father of many nations.”
EL-SHADDAI = the God who is MORE THAN ENOUGH! More than enough to overcome any financial problems or health problems because all those problems were listed under THE CURSE of THE LAW. Now look at Galatians 3:8-9:
- And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, preached before the gospel unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all nations be BLESSED.
- So then they which be of faith are BLESSED with faithful Abraham.
The curse of the Law is threefold: spiritual death, sickness and poverty. The BLESSING of Abraham is also threefold: spiritual life, divine healing and miracles, prosperity and divine health, because Jesus, who is the same yesterday, today and forever, is our Healer, through His Holy Spirit who lives in us, today (Hebrews 13:8, AMPC):
- Jesus Christ (the Messiah) is [always] the same, yesterday, today, [yes] and forever (to the ages).
Now put your shoutin’ clothes on and let’s look at Galatians 3:11-15:
- But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, it is evident: for, The just shall live by faith.
- And the law is not of faith: but, The man that doeth them shall live in them.
- Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree:
- That THE BLESSING of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.
- Brethren, I speak after the manner of men; Though it be but a man’s covenant, yet if it be confirmed [by the blood of Jesus], no man disannulleth, or addeth thereto.
In verse 8, the Scripture preached the gospel, or Good News, to Abraham. Make sure, Partner, that the Scripture, or The WORD of GOD, is first place and final authority now, and for the rest of your life on this earth! HIS WORD IS HIS BOND. Look at Numbers 23:19 (AMPC):
- God is not a man, that He should tell or act a lie, neither the son of man, that He should feel repentance or compunction [for what He has promised]. Has He said and shall He not do it? Or has He spoken and shall He not make it good? [That is the Spirit living inside your spirit].
The Son of Man came and could have lied. Let’s read 1 Peter 1:1-2:
- Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ, to the strangers scattered throughout Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia,
- Elect according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, through sanctification of the Spirit, unto obedience and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ: Grace unto you, and peace, be multiplied.
These, then, are all blood-of-Jesus Christ-backed Covenant words! Read this entire letter with that in mind. Verse 8 says:
- Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory.
Now look at Chapter 2:22-23. That is the Scripture preaching the gospel to you and me! This entire Holy BOOK does not contain The WORD of GOD. IT IS THE WORD of the living God. “Father, Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven in 2024.”
As you pray for this nation, remember that George Washington and the First act of Congress was to dedicate the United States of America to EL-SHADDAI because our first president opened his Bible to the same 17th Chapter of Genesis we just read and then kneeled down and kissed his Bible. Then he said, “YOU’LL BE OUR GOD, and we’ll be Your people.” The Liberty Bell had Leviticus 25:10 written on it: “Proclaim liberty throughout the land”! They rang it until they broke it.
As you sow your BLESSING SEED this month, you are prayed for in every department of KCM every day. I pray for you every meal! And, I say it by Faith: “We will have a million Partners in the USA by this year’s end, in the Name of Jesus whose I am and whom we serve!”
Jesus Loves you. We Love you, and Jesus is LORD!
Love,
