Thank you for your continued faithfulness throughout the past 26 years as together, we continue to stand in the gap for our nation. Our cry, day after day, year after year, has been to repent for the sins of our nation that we might comfort the heart of God. In doing so, instead of the hand of judgment, we cry out for His mercy.
Why do we do this? Why do we sacrifice so much of our time and financial resources to pray for His outpouring? Why do we endure persecution, mocking, and condemnation for humbling ourselves and seeking His face that our nation might receive mercy instead of judgment? Simply put; it’s the call of the intercessor. Is it worth it? Absolutely! Our collective obedience to that call paved the way for the Awakening to be released in 2023, and now, Revival is spreading across the land!
Revival heals the land; the Awakening ignites the heart toward God.
We’ve been discussing this for the last few weeks and had the unexpected joy of having Mom (Nita) join us last Thursday and share a powerful message about the Glory released in the Awakening! Then, Friday, Darrell gave us a profound message on “Recognition, Reception, Reward.” If you missed any of these messages live, you’ll want to listen to them as God is preparing us for an incredible outpouring of His Spirit and there are many elements involved. They will be up on the website as soon as possible. This week, I’ll be sharing Revelations of the 3Rd Great Awakening.
Mom will join us again this Thursday to share with us some things from a recent visit to heaven! You do not want to miss this wonderful message!
It’s truly an exciting time to be alive!
That said… I do have an Urgent Prayer Request!
I am asking for special prayer over our finances. For over a year, our finances have been hit very hard. From mail that is not delivered to us and returned to the sender, to website issues, to outright attacks on those who support the ministry, to significant and unexpected repairs. We really are under attack.
Just a reminder, we do have a new mailing address. If you have sent a check to us at the correct address and have not received a giving receipt or if your check has not cleared your bank, it is possible your check is lost in transit. We consistently have various people contact the office to notify us that one or more of their checks was returned to them unopened. We’ve never experienced anything like this before, so when I tell you we are under attack, I mean, we are under a consistent attack over our finances.
Reminder our new address:
World for Jesus Ministries
PO Box 25187
Fresno CA 93729
World for Jesus Ministries is a very frugal ministry that not only spends tremendous hours raising up a prayer ministry to stand in the gap for nations, but we also support missionaries and orphanages around the world. In addition, we also have our own significant backyard mission field in Seattle named “CedarWood”. This is a huge operation that God called us to open to assist the needs of those in the community.
CedarWood has several outreaches from a weekly pantry to feeding the homeless.
- Through our CedarWood Pantry each Monday, we feed nearly 500 family members a week’s worth of fresh meats, dairy products, fresh produce, grains, bread and so much more!
- Our homeless outreach feeds a warm meal to almost 200 homeless people every weekend during which time we see healing, salvation, and deliverance from addictions.
- CedarWood BackPack Kids program, we’ve served 11,940 meals to children living in poverty-stricken regions throughout the 2025-2026 school year so they can focus on their education, rather than their hunger pains.
- CedarWood Coats and Clothes Closet provide everything from cloth diapers, to coats, shoes, school and work clothes for all ages.
Everything this ministry does has been born of a vision the Lord gave to Mama Nita. It’s through obedience that we continue to reach into the lives of those in need both here and abroad.
I am coming to you to ask you to pray for us. Pray that God will give us an urgent breakthrough now—during this current crisis—and pray for a lasting intervention that will keep our ministry work consistently supported. Like all ministries, the summer months are when we face the greatest financial struggles and as you know, summer is just beginning. Please pray for us during this season. Consider sowing into the work we do, this is good soil my friends.
Thank you and may the Lord bless you all!
