Dear Partner and Friend of this Ministry,

            One of the things that I have learned in ministry is that it takes faith to give to God. The joy that I have found is when people see how their giving brings financial increase to them.  That wonderful blessing is available to you. I am going to pray that you will see great financial increase in the last half of the year.

            When I teach on giving in the meetings, I try to give examples from the Word of God that will build the people’s faith to give God an offering that will cause them to enter into the flow of Divine Blessing. The scripture shows us how we can receive increase by giving to God.

            “Now he that ministereth seed to the sower both minister bread for your food, and multiply your seed sown, and increase the fruits of your righteousness.” 2 Corinthians 9:10

            There are three things that happen when you give God an offering.

            First, the Bible says He will give you back more seed to sow. Notice the scripture says, He gives “seed to the sower”. When you give, God gives back to you. Jesus said it this way:

            “Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again.” Luke 6:38

            Secondly, the scripture says that He will “multiply your seed sown.” He multiplies what you give and not what you keep. The power of the Holy Spirit begins to multiply your offering as soon as you release it and give it to the Lord. You determine how much comes back to you by what you give. I have always believed that my next financial harvest is determined by what I give today.

            The third thing that the Apostle Paul taught was that God “increases the fruits of your righteousness.” When we think of fruit we think of a harvest. That means your financial harvests should get bigger and bigger as you give to God.

            Jesus said that the Kingdom of God is based on increase:

            “First the blade, then the ear, after that the full corn in the ear. But when the fruit is brought forth, immediately he putteth in the sickle, because the harvest is come.” Mark 4:26-29

            The Lord has put it in my heart to pray for you to have great increase in the last half of this year.

            I want to take your financial prayer request and put it on the altar at the Canadian Campmeeting in Mississauga, Ontario the first week of August. It is important that you send your letter back to me immediately. I want you to do three things.

            Write down how much debt you want God to supernaturally cancel on the back of the reply device.

            Give an offering of faith to help us in these new Outdoor Crusades.

            Agree with me on August 6th that the Blessing of Increase will come on you in the last half of this year.  

            Pray for our upcoming crusade on the Black Kettle First Nation Reserve. I will be preaching to the Ojibwe First Nation people July 15-18. Also pray for my son, Ted, who will be holding meetings in Maine and New Brunswick this month. We will be featuring pictures of these great meetings on our website in August.

            Recently, I sat down with Van Crouch and discussed with him the revelation that God gave John Osteen about extraordinary financial increase. He and Al Jandl wrote the book “The Storehouse Principle” based on this revelation. I want to offer to you both the book and the 40 minute interview on DVD this month.

            I am launching the Outdoor Crusades and we need a little extra help this month as we finalize the fields and the permits to conduct these Soul-Winning crusades. My desire is to see you blessed more then ever before, this year! Don’t forget to join me on August 6th as we pray for you. Thank you for your help.

            Remember, together we are making a difference!
