Dear Friends & Co-Laborers, God’s Word declares in Genesis 8:22 “
As long as the earthendures, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summerand winter, day and night will never cease
.” Friends, thisis good news for us! In this world that we live in and with thecurrent pressures our economy is facing, many of us are being
challenged nancially, mentally, and for some, spiritually. Its
very easy to believe God and His Word when things are goingsmooth and there is not a cloud in sight. However, our faith isput to the test when everything seems upside down and theclouds are hovering. Be encouraged and continue to be in faithbecause regardless of the circumstances, God’s Word is true!People often confuse what is a known fact with the truth. Thefact may be that the economy is failing; but the Truth is that weare more than conquerors! The fact may be that your sourceof income has been cut; but the Truth is that Jehovah Jireh isthe Lord our Provider! What do you choose to believe today? The facts or the Truth? It’s the Truth that sets us free! Abraham was counted righteous because of His faith in the Truth of God’s spoken Word. He did not even have the written Word tostand on- he was the one being written about! All Abraham hadwas a spoken Word from God, and by his faith, he inherited thepromises of God! How much more should we stand unwaveringin our faith- we who have received God’s promises of the New Testament; we who have the written Word of God; we whohave the Holy Spirit!His principle regarding seedtime and harvest has always beenand will always be. It has never not worked! The Father Godclearly demonstrated this principle to us through the ultimate giftof His Son: “
I assure you, most solemnly I tell you, Unlessa grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains[just one grain; it never becomes more but lives] by itselfalone. But if it dies, it produces many others and yields arich harvest
.” (John 12:24)
God sacricially proved this everlasting principle to us with His
most precious possession! “
For God so loved the worldthat He gave His one and only son that whosoever wouldbelieve in Him would not perish but have everlasting life
”(John 3:16). He loved us so much and believed so much in thisprinciple that He was willing to give up that which was mostimportant to Him. There was no doubt in Him of what His costlySeed would produce once It died.
You see, there can be no resurrection if there is rst no death.
You cannot resurrect a living thing; you can only resurrect adead thing. Likewise, there can be no testimony without the
test; there can be no victory without the ght. The good news
is that we know the back of the Book and that we have alreadywon! However, the reward of victory does not come to thosewho play it safe and sit on the sidelines; it comes to thosewho are in the heat of the battle and who give their all for theircause.We know our cause: our cause is Christ’s- “
to seek and to savethose who are lost
” (Luke 19:10). This is what we continue todo in the nations of the world. We sow our seeds: our time, our
labor, our nances, our life because we know that as long as the
earth remains, there will be harvest from this seed. We ask youto continue with us in your faithful sowing of seed! Now is moreimportant than ever because the harvest does not care aboutthe world’s economy; it only knows that it must be reaped! Letus lay up for ourselves treasures in heaven where moth and rustcannot destroy and where thieves cannotbreak through and steal!Seed is absolute power: it must multiplyexactly what it is. You can be sure of this: nothing multiplied by nothing is stillnothing; but one seed has the potential to
multiply indenitely! Friends, we are making
an impact on this side of eternity and weare doing it with you! Thank you for your
consistent prayers and nancial support as
we reach the nations for Christ! May the Truth of God’s promises be established in your life today!All our love,
M I N I S T R I E S I N T E R N A T I O N A L
