Hey Friends,

As you know, we are asking FPC to give our Lord a million dollar offering this coming weekend. I know the economy is horrible and many of our church members are out of a job. How could I believe this could happen NOW? Great Question! Let me tell you how. I received this letter yesterday from a lady who has recently been visiting:

“Dear Church Family,

I have recently started attending Faith Promise. I am a member at another church in Knoxville, but never really felt welcome or challenged to serve the Lord. You all are so wonderful to me and my granddaughter who comes with me every Saturday night. I always feel such a spirit of love when I am here. I have been challenged by the Holy Spirit to empty out a small savings account and trust it to God’s work at the Miracle Offering. Please pray that I will have the courage to go through with this as it is all we have. I want to do great things for God and I know He will provide for my every need. So if you all could pray for me and my family that we will trust God for the increase, I would appreciate it.”

That is one of the reasons I believe God will come through. We all have read how the disciples continuously failed the Lord with unbelief and hardness of heart. Let’s not  make the same mistake. We have more than they did. We have the Holy Spirit in power. We have the full revelation of the Word. We also have a track record of watching God come through.

If we are going to change the world we have to believe! Do YOU? I pray so.

Let the miracle weekend flood.

Pastor Chris
