“When the poor and needy search for water and there is none, and their tongues are parched from thirst, then I, the LORD, will answer them. I, the GOD of Israel will never abandon them.” (Is 41:17, NLT)
Recently, God has sent forth the Holy Spirit to draw seekers; many seeking and hungry, Godly people are coming to Forgiven Church. How easy it is to minister to hungry Christians seeking more of God and a deeper walk with HIM.
As surely as HE leads us, we will have valley experiences. We say, “God where are you?” Yet as surely as HE leads us to high places; (lest we become prideful), GOD also leads us to valleys where faith and patience are worked in our hearts. THEN, HIS promise comes: (GOD cannot and will not lie) “I will give them fountains of water in the valleys!” “LORD, are you sending me through the desert too?” There GOD will give you and me “pools of water; rivers fed by springs will flow across the parched dry ground.” (41:18) GOD continues, “I AM the ONE, the HOLY ONE, who does this!” No matter how dry and barren your walk might seem right now, the promise of the LORD is sure!
There are not adequate words to express my thankfulness for you who have been so faithful and beautiful in your support and prayers for this ministry. We especially thank you for your prayers as we journey to the Philippines this month, and will be excited to share with you when we return all the wonderful things God has done.
God continues, “Look at MY servant (JESUS) whom I strengthen – HE is MY chosen one who pleases ME – I have put MY Spirit upon Him – HE will bring justice to the nations… HE will not crush the weakest reed or put out a flickering candle. HE will bring justice to all who have been wronged!” (Is 42:1, 3 NLT)
“Velma, why do you desire to go to other lands beyond the sea?” “Because HIS people are waiting…” “HE will not falter or lose heart… even distance lands beyond the sea will wait for HIS instructions.” (Is 42:4)
It is my calling to go, but through your support of this ministry, you receive the same reward. “I, the Lord, have called you to demonstrate my righteousness. I will take you by the hand and guard you, and I will give you to my people…” (Is 42:6) Jesus declares, “… If you receive righteous people because of their righteousness, you will be given a reward like theirs.” (Matt 10:41) Thank you precious people of the LORD.
PS - Please join Forgiven Church on Facebook Live Stream Friday nights at 7:30 p.m. One of the young ladies who attends Forgiven Church, recently said, “I feel so blessed to learn from so much wisdom under one roof; the lives of women who have evidently walked with the Lord.”
