Dear Child of God:

The Lord said “Again.” I said:  “Lord, I don’t understand.”

He said “Do It Again” and He directed me to include you.

“Set up the Tabernacle on the first day of the new year.” Exodus 40:2 NLT

Once again, the Lord directed us to set up a Tabernacle of Prayer on New Year’s Day as we did three years ago.

So when the Lord said “Do It Again”. . . I knew what He meant and why.

Three years ago we established a Tabernacle of Prayer for thousands of our partners.  We also received some amazing testimonies.

Now the Lord is instructing us to do it again and to include your family.

God specifically told me to spend New Year’s Day establishing a Tabernacle of Prayer for every family that supports this ministry.

Prayer knows no distance with God. He said that I should have you get very specific with your prayer requests.  God does not have to tell me something TWICE.  That’s why I am sending this email today. I don’t want you to miss out.

Are you behind on your mortgage payments. . .facing eviction. . .or loss of personal income. . .job layoff. . .a disappearing retirement account. . .in an abusive marriage. . .plagued with slow sales. . .rebellious children. . .do you feel mounting pressures that have placed you in a tight spot?  Be specific!

“When I was desperate, I called out, and God got me out of a tight spot. God's angel sets up a circle of protection around us while we pray.”  Psalm 34:6-8 MSG

Child of God, I want you to understand this.  No matter what you are facing. . .or how intense the attack,  you should know right here. . .right now. . .that one year from today God wants to hear your lips proclaim that 2018 was the greatest year of your life.

The devil would like nothing better than to beat you up and keep you from experiencing financial freedom.  He would like to keep you frustrated and feeling all alone in your battle.

BUT GOD WANTS YOU TO KNOW THAT YOU ARE NOT ALONE!  That’s why, He directed me to spend January 1st praying specifically for you.

You’re not alone because . . .He will NEVER LEAVE YOU.

“. . .I'll never let you down, never walk off and leave you," we can boldly quote, God is there, ready to help; I'm fearless no matter what. Who or what can get to me?” Hebrews 13:5 MSG

“And I will make an everlasting covenant [tabernacle] with them: I will never stop doing good for them. I will put a desire in their hearts to worship me, and they will neverleave me.” Jeremiah 32:40 NLT

Not only are you not alone. . .but if you’re in debt, God wants to deliver you from the bondage of debt and bring you into financial freedom.

Get ready to SHOUT THE VICTORY because God showed me that 2018 will be a Year of Deliverance.

I’VE GOT NEWS FOR THE HORDES OF HELL.  The game is over!  We’re wise to their tricks, traps, lies and deceptions.  The trials and tragedies of 2017 will become the testimonies of 2018.

On January 1st, I want to start the New Year by building a Tabernacle of Prayer for you.  As you know, there is no greater power than in the place of agreement.

My fine wife, Bev, will also be joining me to pray for you.

Here’s what you need to do to activate your faith for 2018 to be the greatest year of your life.

Below you will find the words My Tabernacle List.  Please list specifically what you want included in your Tabernacle of Prayer.  Please be concise as I will have hundreds and probably thousands of people to pray for.

When you get specific with God, then He can get specific with you.

It is very important that you send me the information I need if I am to wage effective warfare on your behalf on New Year’s Day.

THERE’S ONE MORE THING. . .and it’s IMPORTANT.

Some people begin their morning listening to their favorite talk radio show.

Others watch their favorite morning television news program or some form of entertainment.

Yet others begin their morning streaming music on their iPod or another electronic toy.

Who do you listen to the first thing each morning?

Once you wake up. . .and say hello to any family members already awake or perhaps your favorite pet. . .the voice you need to seek is that of the Holy Spirit.

Here are seven questions that will determine your destiny.

First, what’s the first thing you do in the morning?

Proverbs 8:17 says:

“I love them that love me; and those that seek me early shall find me.”

It’s clear that God wants to be first. . .that He wants us to seek Him early.

Sometimes people grow up feeling they are the lowest person on the totem pole. Those around them seem to have a wonderful family life.  They make good grades or play sports or are popular with other kids.  They seem to have it all together.

Even if you grew up as a Christian you can feel that God didn’t outfit you with the best scenario. 

Then when you catch a vision or sense your calling, the road is not all that smooth ahead of you. So naturally, we might ask... "Why is this happening to me?"

Have you ever thought about what Jesus experienced?  His life certainly wasn’t a picnic.

Stuff happened to Jesus too. And if it happened to Him, it shouldn’t be strange that it’s happening to you too.  It's how you deal with the stuff when it happens that makes all the difference in the world.

Here are seven things you may not have thought about Jesus.

First, He was born out of wedlock.

Up until the past ten to twenty years. . .if you had a child out of wedlock. . .or what the world calls an illegitimate child. . .you were viewed and treated differently by all the ‘good’ folks.

So just imagine what that was like 2,000 years ago.

If a quarterback's timing is off. . .he's going to have a bad day with more interceptions than touchdowns.  That's clearly evident in some of the National Football League games you may watch each week.

If a basketball player whether high school, college or professional has his timing off. . .he won't be able to make a free throw. . .no matter how big the rim is.

In life. . .if your timing is off. . .you can miss possibilities. . .and opportunities for success.

Timing is critically important in life.

Something can be a good idea. . .it can be a great idea. . .it can be a God idea but for it to be successful it must be in God's timing. 

Here are seven keys to right timing for success.

1.         The Holy Spirit gives you the timing.

Have you ever wondered if it was the right time to make a career change. . .to ask someone to marry you. . .to present your ideas to your supervisors?

Knowing when to speak. . .is equally important to what you’re going to say.

Acts 1:7-8 in the Message Bible says:

“He told them, `You don’t get to know the time. Timing is the Father’s business. What you’ll get is the Holy Spirit. And when the Holy Spirit comes on you, you will be able to be my witnesses in Jerusalem, all over Judea and Samaria, even to the ends of the world.’”
