Dear Ministry Partners and Friends,
In the past two months, we conducted seven seminars, four of which were in conjunction with Forgiven Ministry One Day with God Camps. We witnessed seventy-eight individuals pray to receive Christ as Lord and Savior.
We are living in some troubling time in our country, but also very exciting time as I believe the coming of our Lord is very near. The economic news is bleak, but thank God His economy is not based on this world’s economy. God owns it all – not only the hills, but the cattle on those hills, and my father has not lost one of His cows.
God has made you and me a part of His great plan for the world and that is to carry out the Great Commission, for in Matthew 28 He tells us to ‘go.’ This is a command; not’ if you want to’, not ‘if you feel like it’ or ‘if you don’t feel this is you.’ Wrong! It is not an option. For followers of Jesus Christ, this is a command. I realize due to health problems some may not be able to physically go, but we can support those who go by first praying and then by giving. We may say due to the economy ‘I can’t give.’ Remember what you read in the previous paragraph; God owns it all. God expects us to return one tenth of all He allows us to have back to Him. In Matthew 6:33 He says “But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness; and all these things shall be added to you.” (NAS)
We need to reach the children of this and future generations, as these are the future leaders of the country and the Church. We take prayer requests from the children of the dads we work with on Friday and the things they ask for are heart breaking. They ask for dad to get his life right and come home and be the dad he needs to be, or for mom to get another job. They pray that they will not be homeless any more. There are thousands of children here in America that are suffering and need the love and support of their parents. I have seen God miraculously restore families through a One Day with God Camp and the Friday Seminars.
My heart is very heavy for the families in our country and I need your help to reach out through the leadership and direction of the Holy Spirit as we try to make a difference – one family at a time.
We have some ministry needs as God grows His ministry. We are having to carry more and are in need of a vehicle with more cargo space. We also need some additional sound equipment. I am asking you to join us in prayer for God to supply the things we need for His ministry. You can check us out at www.blueridgeministries.org for ways to give and for a schedule of upcoming events.
Board Members, Thanks for your faithful support and service.
In His Service,
Jim Williams
So shall My word be which goes forth from My mouth;
It shall not return to Me empty,
Without accomplishing what I desire,
And without succeeding in the matter for which I sent it. NAS
Isa.55:11
