Greetings!

Let two or three prophets speak, and let the others judge.
1 Corinthians 14:29

For over twenty years I have been a part of the fivefold ministry. My job has been to equip the Saints of God by teaching how to hear His voice and to know His ways. I am so blessed to know so many who are now hearing God for themselves and others. There are many prophetic ministers to date that are graduates from one of our video correspondence schools. They are offering themselves to anyone who desires to receive a word of prophecy or prophetic prayer. Today there are 328 ministers ordained under Prophetic Ministries Tabernacle of Gainesville, Texas.

He Himself (Jesus) gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers, for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ, till we all come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God.
Ephesians 4:11,13

I have also tried my best to teach the Saints of God that it is not enough to hear God’s voice; you need to know what He means. Too many times I’ve heard someone say God spoke to them and they were going to do what He said; and no one could stop them. Later I find out they had messed up their lives and their families were paying the price for their error. Being taught what to do when you think you have heard God is as important as knowing how to hear Him.

Over the years I have visited with many Pastors who have expressed concern about people in their congregation saying, “They heard God.” Obtaining understanding and being sure we know what He is saying requires confirmation. Every word we hear needs to be confirmed through two or more witnesses. It is not enough to just trust your ears only. The final point is that you need to know the exact timing of when God wants you to move or change whatever it is you are presently doing. Do not quit your job or move to another city or anything else that could affect others until you have received solid prophetic counseling. Even if you have heard God you need to know when you are to step out on His word. Being out of His timing can be disastrous. Timing is everything. When you have the assurance you know what He means and confirmation when to do it can greatly increase your confidence. You will either be trusted by others as someone who can hear God or viewed as a flake. It all depends on what you do after you think you have heard God. With the times the way they are and with this weak economy you cannot afford to make a mistake.

What is the First Prophecy in the Bible?

by, Sandy Landry

Joy Davidman quotes a Communist who said to her: “Of course we’re imprisoning our opponents and silencing the press and executing hostile elements. But it’s only a temporary expedient, necessary to the ultimate goal.”

COMMUNISM

Word of the Week

Meaning: a way of organizing a society in which the government owns the things that are used to make and transport products (such as land, oil, factories, ships, etc.) and there is no privately owned property ~ Merriam-Webster’s Learner’s Dictionary ~
The kings of the earth set themselves,
And the rulers take counsel together,
Against the Lord and against His Anointed, saying,

“Let us break Their bonds in pieces
And cast away Their cords from us.”
Psalms 2:2,3
The New King James Version, (Nashville, TN: Thomas Nelson Publishers) 1998, c1982.

Greetings!

In our logo you will notice the Scripture reference embedded just below the open bible.

Hebrews 13:8 “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.”

We have advanced into a microwave society. Everything must be instantaneous in order to maintain our life of conveniences; however, God has not changed. He is the same even though this world keeps changing; He remains the same and will not conform to our ways. No matter how many ways we coheres God into moving faster He refuses to be compelled. In fact our efforts to move or help God will only SLOW the process.

There is a pattern of events that take place when you receive a prophetic word. First of all there is a “Purpose” why God gives you a personal word which usually includes a word of knowledge, a word of wisdom and prophecy. Many times God will talk about things we may not think is important and we all know that our desires are more important than His; sadly many believe that to be true.

The second phase is the “Process” which most all of us would rather skip if possible; however, this part of the pattern is what changes us and renews our way of thinking. The “Process” most of the time is painful and does require change. Sometimes the change is major and while we are going through the “Process” you may feel like saying, “He is a False Prophet because nothing is happening the way I want it to.” Without going through the “Process” we cannot receive the third and final part of the pattern, His “Promise”.

The “Promise” of His word is what we all want and we want it NOW. Very few people these days want to wait on God’s plan. A large segment of people today expect me to chant a few words, waive my magic wand and proclaim all their problems are fixed. Sorry, it does not work that way.

When asked to pray or prophesy the request usually is for me to seek God to change their mate, friend or boss and the list goes on. More times than not it’s you that He is focused on fixing and not the other way around. When He fixes a problem He does not just apply a band aide and send you on your way. He will take you out of the revolving door that keeps bring you back to the same problem again and again. As He sticks His foot in the door to stop the madness He then will pull you out and place you on a straight and narrow path.

My prayer is that all Christians stay focused on the fact that we are created to serve God our Father, Jesus His Son and the Holy Spirit and not the other way around. To make our Goal to do His will for His purpose keeping our eyes on the ultimate price; which is Eternal Life with Him in His Kingdom.

“No one can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or else he will be loyal to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon.”

(*definition of Mammon: material wealth or possessions especially as having a debasing influence)

It Was a Bad Seed

by, Sandy Landry

I hate to be the one to tell you this, but despite everything, sometimes a word is just “off.” Or our interpretation is off. A prophet is trying to hear, trying to see, trying to interpret and there are ever increasing levels of faith he must exercise. We don’t stone prophets who miss it like in the Old Testament any more than we stone teachers who miss it or pastors. We are under a new covenant. That is why you are told to test prophecy. You must test it against the written word, against who you are learning God to be, against your own spirit, etc. and so on. And against time and reality. I don’t mean by what your eyes see, but your eyes should see something moving at some point and you are going to have to accept it. Remember the seed. How long will you stare at the ground waiting for the seed to come up before you plant another seed on another site? Unless God gives you the faith, like Ezekiel, to pray for dead bones, there is a time to move on.

It is a mystery. Not every thing about prophecy is easy to understand. Sometimes we have to chalk it up to “we don’t know why.” It is not rocket science, all precise and left brained and exact. It is more like poetry or horticulture. More like a poet explaining horticulture to us. Using that analogy, let’s compare it to growing roses. They are exquisite, but hard to pick and difficult to grow. But they are exquisite. Fragrant, alive, beautiful, and totally worth the trouble to pick.

Kent,

Thank you for all of your prayers and support towards my daughters return. Praise God! She had returned on Dec 18th. But she was very ill. She had gotten a kidney infection while she was out there. She was wandering the streets with another runaway. I had just been with her yesterday night and this morning at the Dell Children’s Hospital, here in Austin, Texas. They are monitoring her as I write this email.

I am very thankful to The Lord! That his mercy and great favor is upon our whole entire family! He is an awesome God!

Again, Thank You to you and your prayer team! And may the Lord richly bless your ministry!

Aloha,
Gina J.

And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body; and be thankful. Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.

Word of the Week

Greetings!

For a period of about two years I struggled with something the Lord had said to me. He said, “Kent, if everyone could hear Me like you do, I would not need you, nor would I have created prophets for My church.” I had a hard time receiving this word because I realized I would be responsible on a grand scale, people’s lives could be destroyed. Teaching from the Bible is easy compared to speaking the uncompromised word of the Lord. Prophesying into people’s lives will require certain accuracy; there will be no room for error.

When the Holy Spirit speaks inside of you, it is different than when you get a sermon for teaching or preaching. First of all, there is much more power in the voice and presence of the Holy Spirit.

At times He will cause you to fall into a trance and weep uncontrollably.

Before I received the baptism of the Holy Spirit, I only heard from heaven every so often, maybe once a year. After I received the baptism of the Holy Spirit I gained understanding, the blinders were removed. The Holy Spirit began to speak in long sentences and we had frequent conversations. His words were to the point and powerful. Over time He changed my thoughts and ways when studying the Holy Scriptures. He helps me understand His purpose for the Body of Christ. Every time the Holy Spirit speaks to me His word is burned into my soul and the physical experience changes me.

Many of the things the Holy Spirit has taught me do not fall in line with the main stream of doctrine for this age. Each time the Lord has revealed a new teaching to me, I have had a problem accepting it because I knew that many would not receive the message. Over the years I have found that it is easier for the masses to believe a half-truth rather than trusting the Spirit of truth. However, as of late I have been blessed to hear a few of the “Brand Name” Ministers preaching and teaching some of the same lessons that I was criticized for preaching some 15 to 20 years ago. The main thing is that we are all taught by God being poured into His purpose by His word.

It is written in the prophets,

“And they shall be taught by God.” Therefore, everyone who has heard and learned from the Father comes to Me.

Never Too Old to Twinkle

by, Sister Ty Boye

“Finally, my brethren, rejoice in the Lord. For me to write the same things to you is not tedious, but for you it is safe.”

Some of you may know I have operated in a natural calling for many years as a violin teacher. One of the most famous methods for teaching is the Suzuki Method. Very briefly, the premise behind Dr. Suzuki’s system is that if a young child easily learns to speak by copying speakers of his mother tongue, he might just as easily learn a musical instrument by copying a teacher using his ears and eyes. We do not learn how to speak by reading a book. Actually, this aspect of his method of teaching always seemed very reminiscent of our Lord’s words that He only did and said what He heard the Father do and say…(John 5:19, for ex.).

Anyway, the first song in Vol. 1 of every Suzuki book is “Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star”. Kids delight in its repetitive motions; to play it well is their first dream, and to do so sometimes takes much of a year to master. There comes a day when it is perfect, and the child is ready to throw it away! After that he sees “Twinkle” as “kids’ stuff”. The teacher does of course move to the next song, but little does the student know that there is a system of review built into the method which requires the review of “Twinkle” at every level, to perfect strokes and gain precision.

Paul was a great teacher, and he did repeat himself! As he pointed out, it should not be regarded as tedious, but SAFE to do so. “Rejoice in the Lord always; again I say, rejoice.” (Phil. 4:4) Then there’s Ephesians-how many times Paul says “in HIM” in the first chapter; this is worthy of meditation in itself. These are the first things, the “Twinkles”, from Him who is the Alpha.

The spiritual analogies suggested here are profound. We do need to “Twinkle”, to meditate on simplest things, at every level of maturity. How often I watched advanced violin students resist the idea of returning to first things and “Twinkling” again. It always seemed that the ones who resisted the need to see and hear freshly, who refused to humble themselves in these practices never could advance to the difficult repertoire. It takes time and humility to see and hear accurately, without preconceived assumptions, in music as in the prophetic!

What Happened?

by, Sandy Landry
People sometimes are confused when they receive a word and it never comes to pass, and years later they are told to let it go. What happened?

God’s ways aren’t ours.

He is vast and inconceivable at times. Remember when He sent Jonah with a word that He was going to destroy Ninevah. And yet He didn’t. He changed His mind when they repented. He knew beforehand that they would repent and he didn’t see fit to include Jonah in the loop. He also knew the vinegar that would produce in Jonah and Jonah got a lesson about God out of the experience. He is not arbitrary or wishy washy. You can be certain of that. But in a world where all of us have free will, our free wills give us a measure of power and God’s purposes in our lives are more important to Him than committing Himself to what a prophet speaks to us. Just ask Jonah about that.

It got too much sun. Too much exposure. Too much rain.

There are times when our clinging to a word becomes an obsession. We are not really exercising faith. We are almost into idolatry, worshiping our “word,” faithfully clinging to it, demanding that God fulfill His promise to us. We are unwilling to trust God who is bigger than the word. We become sort of like Job who had to find out the hard way that God was bigger than the deal Job thought he had made with him which went something like “I sacrifice and you keep me from harm.” How could God let bad things happen to this good guy? Because God was going to reveal to Job how really big He was. Bigger than the small deal that Job had with God in the beginning. Job moved out of the place where he had to admit he didn’t understand God and all His ways like He had thought He had. But He found out, despite the suffering, that God was really bigger and better than he had imagined.

Remember Shadrach and the boys? They believed that he would save them from the furnace, but they kept a clause in it that if He didn’t He was still God and they trusted Him. He is bigger than a word. Nothing can separate us from His love. Not even death. Read Hebrews 11 about all the people who died in faith believing for something they never saw. God was really proud of that bunch. Called them by name.

Dear Prophet Kent Simpson:

In the Year 2004 and 2005 God gave us a prophetic word through that we were going to be blessed with a home but this is a season to wait and if you wait you are going to be glad that you waited because you can name your price.

Further, we just closed on a 4 bedroom 2 bath 2 car garage home at a 3.5% fixed interest rate. This house originally sold for $250,000.00 in 2004 and we just purchased it for $72,000.00 and just as the prophetic word spoke it came to pass, we are glad we waited; we did name our price.

Finally, thank you Prophet Kent Simpson, for obeying the Most High and moving in the prophetic ministry because truly the prophetic anointing on your life has been a blessing to us.

May you and your family have a blessed and prosperous New Year.

Sincerely,
Jerald and Sophia Hooper from Florida

Whenever God gives us a cross to bear, it is a prophecy that will also give us strength. As a knot appears unexpectedly in a thread, so disappointment blocks the smoothness of life. If a few masterful strokes can untangle the mess, life continues evenly; but if it cannot be corrected, then it must be quietly woven into the design. Thus the finished piece can still be beautiful though not as perfect as planned.

Building Character Through Tribulations

Word of the Week

Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom also we have access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God. And not only that, but we also glory in tribulations, knowing that tribulation produces perseverance; and perseverance, character; and character, hope. Now hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us.
Romans 5:1-5
The New King James Version, (Nashville, TN: Thomas Nelson Publishers) 1998, c1982.

Greetings!
I can remember the first time I was contacted and inform that their word of prophecy had not come to pass. I asked them if they had the recorded prophecy with them. The word was clear and even gave a time frame of when their word was to come to pass. As I listened to their word I was immediately take back to the meeting and I could feel and hear the overall experience of God speaking in me all over again with amazing clarity. Puzzled I could not find an answer to give the person. Immediately I began the quest for finding out what went wrong.

For days I sought God for an answer, assumptions were running rampant within my mind and I was losing sleep over the ordeal. Exhausted I stopped seeking and gave thought to throwing in the towel giving up the ministry all together. The very next day the Holy Spirit began to teach me about the ways of God in this matter. First of all God is not interested in making me look good for the sake of my own self edification. As a minister my life belongs totally to God and He will use me however He so desires. Thus I learned a new lesson from this experience; that God will use you as “His Fish Bait” sometimes to get what He wants. He even gives His word to the messenger knowing that the word will not come to pass, to humble the minister. Because we all know that before a haughty spirit is a great fall. Another reason I discovered; He may use His minister to prophesy a word to a person or nation knowing they will react to the word even though the word will not come to pass. Like we use reverse psychology to get our children to do what we want them to.

The biblical foundation for this term “Being His Fish Bait” comes from the book of Jonah beginning in the first chapter. To paraphrase, God had told Jonah to deliver His word of destruction that would come upon Nineveh and no would live through it. Well, Johan did not want to deliver this message; however, from the belly of a whale he was delivered. Jonah convinced by the fear of God to speak His word and the people flocked to hear the man that was spewed upon the beach out of the month of a big fish. Jonah delivered the word and the King of Nineveh ordered the entire Nation to fast and repent to Jonah’s God. Then the Bible records that God relented and called off the destruction of Nineveh and the people lived another 400+ years. Jonah was very upset because God did not fulfill His word and God came to Jonah and basically said; “Are you upset with Me because I did not kill 120,000 people so you could be right?”

The bottom line is we do not know all the ways and thoughts of our God. I remind you, He is God and He can do whatever He so wills for He is God of ALL things in ALL situations.

Resolution to Exercise

by, Sister Ty Boye

“But reject profane and old wives’ fables, and exercise yourself toward godliness. For bodily exercise profits a little, but godliness is profitable for all things, having promise of the life that now is and of that which is to come.”

Recently I reread these verses and reflected on some of the moth-eaten sport-coated teachers whose interpretations turned me off in the past. “Exercising” toward “godliness” always seemed to involve a huge effort with many rules and regulations. I imagined that I could never measure up to their standard of being “godly”, even with the most intense Godliness Gym membership. It was much easier to relate to bodily exercise, even if the profit was only temporal. At least fitness programs produced renewed zest for physical life. From the parade of churches I experienced in my youth, it seemed that the traditional exercise in “godliness” only made people dry and cold as a statue.

Later I understood that “godliness” comes from the Greek word, “eusebeia”, which translates (EU) well + (SEBEIEA) reverence, describing a reverential awe that is directed “well”, that is, toward the Lord. One good definition is: “Godliness is a right attitude and response to the Living God that manifests itself in a preoccupation from the heart with holy and sacred realities.”(www.preceptaustin.com). As born again believers we know that it is not possible to achieve “godliness” by right choices and good behavior. We only have it when we ask the Life to dwell in us, when we continually ingest the spiritual milk of HIS Word, and when we are in submission to Him, empowered by and obeying His Holy Spirit.

So how do we exercise godliness? Ancient physical training did not involve suiting up in expensive gear while watching CNN from a high-tech treadmill. Bluntly, the meaning of the Greek word “GYMNASO” was to “train naked”. Thus vs. 7-8 might read:

“Reject the false lessons of worldly wisdom and maturity, which have no ultimate value, strip away all pretences and hindrances, and occupy yourself with deep reverence for holy and sacred realities.” In short, get absolutely real (honest and humble) and ask Him in and spend time with Him. The exciting part is that Paul assures us the benefit of this exercise is not just in the life to come, but also “in the life that now is.” A good warm-up exercise to consider:

“And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifested in the flesh….”

What Happened?

by, Sandy Landry

People sometimes are confused when they receive a word and it never comes to pass, and years later they are told to let it go. What happened?

I think to answer your question, we can relate it to the analogy of the seed. If we regard a prophecy like a seed, let us think of your question in relation to a seed that never sprouted.

I planted a seed and it was supposed to produce a tree, but it never came up. Why?

It wasn’t watered properly. It did not receive proper nutrients. It did not get proper sun. The things that might kill a seed in the ground are many.

It is possible there were attitudes and behaviors that were meant to be changed to see the word come to pass and they were not. While there are sometimes words that will come to pass regardless of what anyone does, at other times, there are conditions that must be met. Remember when God said to Israel that if they did this, He would do that? It is not as though it is hidden and impossible to understand and we have to guess what we are to do. We usually know what is required of us.

Is it possible your plant needed cross pollination to produce fruit?

I remember one time that my husband planted squash. He had the most beautiful plants grow and he took care of them famously, and yet they didn’t produce squash. They needed to cross pollinate, and it didn’t happen. We are not always able to “obey” for every person who might be involved. Think of Caleb and Joshua. They had a word that they could take their enemies, and they could have. They had faith for it. But because of the unbelief of others, it took forty years for them to get their promise. There are variables at times. That makes certain prophecies complicated. Sorry.

Dear Pastor, Friend and Prophet

My stepfather who was not expected to live and flown to the hospital with half a lung, bacterial infection, pneumonia, and in need of open heart surgery was too weak to operate on. Less than about two weeks later he is now home and gaining weight and doing remarkably well. Praise be to God.

I’m so thankful for all your prayers.

There will be an abundance of static in the heavens in 2011. Caution will demand that we will need confirmation for every prophetic word we receive. If the word comes through a prophecy or whether you hear God’s voice directly you will need confirmation. Either way you do not want to step out on any one’s word without first receiving confirmation through two or more witnesses. You must know that the word is from God and most of all know when to move on the word. Timing will be everything, do not get ahead of God’s will.

Static

Word of the Week

And so we have the prophetic word confirmed, which you do well to heed as a light that shines in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts; knowing this first, that no prophecy of Scripture is of any private interpretation, for prophecy never came by the will of man, but holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy Spirit.

The New King James Version, (Nashville, TN: Thomas Nelson Publishers) 1998, c1982.

You search the Scriptures, for in them you think you have eternal life; and these are they which testify of Me. But you are not willing to come to Me that you may have life.
John 5:39, 40

The ministry was in its startup phase and all the cost had depleted our finances and Christmas was just around the corner. Our Christmas tree was baron of gifts and we really did not expect that there were any on the way. It was rather sad; however, the work of the ministry kept my mind off the fact that I had nothing for my wife. Both of our Bibles were worn so it seemed that would be the ideal gift to give ourselves. So off to the local Christian bookstore we went only to find out that Bibles had really gone up in price. Making the decision to put them on lay-a-way it all seemed to be a good idea. So we gave what funds we brought and put that down with plans to pick them up Christmas Eve.

Preaching six days each week and running a small construction business made the days go by very quick. Ministering on radio, traveling and sending out prophesies through the mail we started to see a following of folks who were hungry to hear the voice of God. In that day most people thought we were crazy for making claims that God speaks to His people today. In fact some pastors considered us a threat to the church and did not want their people near us; well that just made for good advertising for us. Each Saturday morning I would be on the radio out of Dallas, Texas prophesying live over the radio to all who called into the station. During the week I would stop by at least one church each week and visit with the pastor. My plea was, if the pastor would allow me, to schedule a meeting in their church. The question was always the same, “What kind of meeting?” they would reply. A “Hearing Clinic” I would boldly announce; one pastor was very agreeable and I thought to myself, finally I am going to get to preach in a real church. Then he asked, “What kind of hearing aides are you selling?” As I began to explain what kind of ‘Hearing Clinic’ I was talking about I could see that his level of interest had withered away. Not discouraged I kept right on knocking on pastor’s doors with the same message. Although for the life of me

I could not understand why Pastor’s did not want their people learning to hear the voice of God. Finally I meet the Pastor who was going to set me straight and tell me where I was wrong. Just like so many other times I found myself standing in front of another Pastor’s door. As the door opened I made my introduction and began my spill on holding a ‘Hearing Clinic’ for the church congregation. The Pastor abruptly stopped me and asked, “So you think you can hear God?” and I replied with a confident YES! Holding his Bible under his arm he raised his voice and said, “Son the only way you can hear God is through this book!” Then the Holy Spirit told me to ask him if he was called to preach. So I asked the Pastor, “Reverend, were you called by God to preach?” “Bless God, Amen!” The Holy Spirit said, “Asking where his name is in the Bible!” As commanded I asked the Pastor, “Where did you read in the Bible that says you were called to preach?” Frustrated he step back and slammed the door in my face. I did not bother to knock on anymore Pastor’s doors and it was almost three years before I was asked to bring the message about Hearing the Voice of God. Oh, by the way, we did manage to get those new Bibles out of Lay-a-way; however, it was not until the middle of January.

How Do I Get Faith to Believe What God Says is True?

by Sandy Landry

Well, you can’t manufacture it or pretend you have it hoping it will kick in one day. It is a gift from God. So, you can ask for it. Remember in the Bible when the man said, “Help my unbelief”? The

thing about faith is it is the main thing that pleases God. There is a verse which says that “Without faith it is impossible to please God.” So that means I could die as a martyr, but if I didn’t die in faith leaning on His direction, wisdom, and strength, I might have well just have thrown myself in front of a bus because it is faith that counts.

There is another verse that says that when Jesus comes again, He is going to be looking for one thing: faith. So it is a big deal.

And yet another one that says, “Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God.” So I can get faith by hearing the word of God. When a prophet speaks to me the word of God, it can stir faith in me to believe. Then when I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil. It doesn’t make it easy to stay in faith. I am not necessarily skipping through the tulips. I may be pushed to the max battling fear every step of the way, but faith makes it possible to put one foot in front of the other one. It is the weapon I fight with. It is my shield. When doubt, fear, and accusation come at me, I can lift up my faith as a shield against them.

Many times the word of God carries us over. Imagine that you are climbing a mountain and you come to a tight rope that leads to the other side, and you know that Jesus is calling you to the other side. That tight rope is faith. It must be crossed in faith. If you have a word that you are going to make it to the other side and there is no other way across, you can be confident in God and the word of faith that you can make it. It still doesn’t mean that you won’t have fear or be shaking, but even in that faith gives you confidence. It is confidence in God’s abilities when we are weak, and by the way, we are always better off when we are we weak. That is when we need faith. Confidence in our own abilities is a snare.

What if you don’t have faith that you can go across and still there is the rope and you don’t know another way to get there and you just step out on the rope, hoping and wishing and praying. That is dangerous. God might protect you, but He is not obligated to. He backs up FAITH coming to us by HIS WORD. We can be presumptuous and call our own risking, “faith.” You can remember times when the Israelites went in to battle because it “worked the last time”, and God had not called them to do it, and he let them be defeated.

So your word is an opportunity for you to exercise faith. It is “hearing” that may bring you faith. If faith stirs inside you, you have been given a gift by God. Or if it hasn’t, you are welcome to ask God to give you faith to believe. You now have a tight rope to walk across from one mountain to the next, right into victory.

I had just returned from Norway and the first thing I am told is that our creditors are demanding payment of almost $87,000.00. We were ministering daily on 8 different television stations and three radio stations. With these expenses it did not take long to find ourselves underwater. Christmas was just a few days away and we did not have enough to take care of the monthly expenses so I called the ministries attorney. After explaining our situation our attorney walked me down the hall and introduced me to their corporate bankruptcy attorney, this is when the miracle began to take shape.

As the bankruptcy attorney began to talk, I could see his lips moving but I could not hear a word he was saying, I thought I had lost my mind. Then God spoke commanding me to go home and write a letter to each one of our creditors and attach a check for 12.93% of what we owed them and write on the back of the check that their endorsement is an acknowledgement to the letter agreement that is attached to the check.

As I drove home from Dallas to Fort Worth I recited in my head over and over the words God had told me to write in the letter agreement. When I opened the front door to our home my wife began asking me, “What all did the attorney say?” I just put up my hand and went straight to my study and began to type each letter individually to each one of the ministries creditors. After prorating each creditor’s total balance due by the 12.93% and writing out each check I brought the balance down in the ministries checkbook to see what we had left, the balance was less than $2.00. Each letter and check was dated December 20, 1996 after mailing them express mail with return receipt I was totally set free knowing that God would take care of everything. Even though we had no money for Christmas God had given us a wonderful Christmas gift.

It was not too long before I started receiving calls from our creditors; four out of six thanked us and agreed that we were paid in full. However, the other two wanted to take the funds and sue us for the balance. After turning our account over to their corporate attorneys they quickly found out that because they had accepted the check for 12.93% of the balance that the account was paid and full. Later we received letters from the two law firms apologizing for the company’s error indicating that the account was paid in full and deleted from their books.

For a few years I shared this testimony and those who followed the exact plan were successful in becoming debt free. However, in 2009 our government passed a law that barred this formula from being effective. But God has the last word and He can out maneuver the system anytime He so deems, all you have to do is Pray, Hear and Obey.
