First thing He said to me, “You’re going to speak to the church this morning. You’re speaking to the ministries on prayer. I want you to be My mouthpiece. Speak to them slowly, gently, with divine urgency, because they have a dream and they have a vision which must be realized because I’ve given that to them. They are My people. But they are people of destiny, and so be warned that nothing should be said that I have not said to you. Say it with compassion. Assure them that I know of the love that is amongst them. But that should increase tenfold in view of what is going to happen shortly. Speak to Kenneth Copeland Ministries and the International Church. Tell them that I regard them as people of destiny as much as I regarded those four young people, part of the banished nation far away from Jerusalem, waiting for the day when Jerusalem would once again be the home and the center of My people. “You intended to speak on Daniel and certain excerpts from that. It is good because that is within the guidance of My Spirit and within the center of My will. But forget your notes. You’re not sermonizing. Regard it as a prophetic spirit that has come to you through Me. Tell them that the secret of those four young men—Daniel, Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego–the secret was that they frequently prayed, although they found themselves in a strange culture. They fasted. And as they will do what I am to tell you to do, they will feel My Spirit resting upon them, equipping them, empowering them to go forth and be My people in a world that is not very different from what they found themselves in. There are so many strange cultures in America. So many strange nations across the world. And this is an international body, reaching out to the furthest corners of the world. “Tell them to read the book of Daniel. It is a much-neglected book. Some of My people have taken from it certain parts that they liked. But I would have them as a body to read the entire book, to commence with that reading individually and corporately as soon as possible. They must hear it word for word. They must note the number of times that these people fasted and prayed, and let fasting be one of the clear motivations in their life to know My fullness and to know my plans for them. “They are My people. They are people of My choice. They are people of destiny. The leadership must know that My Spirit will never depart from them. If they draw near unto Me, I shall draw near unto them. More than that, I shall ever be with them, never removed at any distance. Shortly, they will be ministering in this country. They will also be ministering in other countries, but every time, My anointing will rest upon them so powerfully that they will know they are people of My choice, and make themselves available. I want them to know that everyone involved in the ministry, whether it be a menial task, the most unimportant task in their own eyes, if they’re My instruments, they are important. There is no link that can be taken out of the chain. “I repeat, speak to them slowly, deliberately, fearlessly, but with divine compassion. Love them as My people, My Church, My Body, My Bride. Reassure them once again of My love that is infallible at all times, and My Spirit that is available to them at all times since I dwell in them, I’ll be living with them and in them from this day forward more powerfully than ever before. They are My nation. They are My people of priests and prophets. And none of them, not the least of them, should try to withdraw from what I’m going to reveal to them and what I’m to require of them.” Folks, I tried to sleep. But this power of God rested upon me so heavily, so mightily, that I…Whenever God reveals Himself to me it’s quickening and energizing. Yet this morning, when I woke up I was tired out. It was a remarkable experience. I’m going to read a few passages which came to me at that time, to show you the importance of this book. And, Pastor George, I don’t know when you’re going to start it. The Lord said as soon as it’s possible for you to do it, do it methodically, do it faithfully, both in your private capacities, and as a corporate Body.

The word of The LORD came to me in a strong way during our January 5 Sunday service, letting us know that this is our championship year! Since that time, I have been preaching about how to develop championship faith—a strong faith that refuses to quit until it sees the desired result! Hebrews 10:38-39 (New King James Version) is a powerful faith scripture that says: “Now the just shall live by faith; but if anyone draws back, My soul has no pleasure in him. But we are not of those who draw back to perdition, but of those who believe to the saving of the soul.” I like The Message Bible of verse 39: “But we’re not quitters who lose out. Oh, no! We’ll stay with it and survive, trusting all the way.” Our lives are sustained by an absolute trust in God and His WORD. No matter what your situation, just stop and remind yourself of God’s faithfulness. Then, stand on His WORD and receive exactly what you need. Philippians 4:19 in the Amplified Bible, Classic Edition says, “And my God will liberally supply (fill to the full) your EVERY need according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus.” Say, “I take that by faith!” Thank you for your supply of the Spirit here at EMIC, and your willingness to pray for us! Pastor Terri and I are standing in agreement with you for the fullness of God’s provision in every area of your life. Say out loud, “My every need is met, every bill paid and every debt wiped out, with more than enough left over. I take that by the force of faith!” Faith is a powerful force of the re-created human spirit. “Faith is not the product of reason but of the reborn human spirit. It is not the product of the mind but of the heart. Faith is a power force, a tangible force and a conductive force. It will move and change things. It will change the human body. It will change your circumstances.”—Kenneth Copeland Let’s take a look at the various forces of faith. Faith Force No. 1: THE POWER TO REMOVE Mark 11:22-23 says: “And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God. For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou REMOVED, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.” Faith has the power to remove the mountains in our lives. What obstacles are staring you in the face? What needs to be moved out of the way that hinders your walk with God? Say, “Mountain, in the Name of Jesus—be REMOVED, and be cast into the sea RIGHT NOW!” Faith Force No. 2: THE POWER TO RECEIVE In Mark 11:24, Jesus said, “Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe ye RECEIVE them, and ye shall have them.” The Greek definition of receive means “to take with much force; to seize with a grip which cannot be shaken off.” For instance, according to Proverbs 4:20-23, the force of faith that comes from The WORD of God and into your heart brings life and health to your flesh. Above all that you do, keep your heart full of The WORD. Why? Because out of the heart come the forces, or issues, necessary to live this life successfully. Diligently protect and nourish your spirit. Feed your heart with God’s WORD, and the force of faith will issue out of your heart and work whenever it is needed. Faith Force No. 3: THE POWER TO RELEASE In Mark 11:25, Jesus declared, “And when ye stand praying, forgive (or you could say the word “RELEASE” ) if ye have ought against any: that your Father also which is in heaven may forgive (RELEASE) you [of] your trespasses.” It takes the force of faith to release unforgiveness. Hebrews 12:1-2 tells us to “lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith.” “Father, by the force of faith in Jesus’ Name and in His WORD, I RELEASE everyone of every offense, hurt and evil thing done to me. I cut that cord of offense or unforgiveness holding me, and I let it go forever! I am free!” Faith Force No. 4: THE POWER TO RAISE UP We will be celebrating the resurrection of Jesus on April 20. God’s faith was the power that RAISED UP Jesus from the pit of hell. He shouted, “It is enough! The price has been paid. Loose Him and let Him go!” Romans 8:11 tells us: “But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that RAISED UP Christ from the dead shall also quicken [make alive] your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.” According to Ephesians 2:6 (NKJV), Jesus “RAISED US UP TOGETHER, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus.” Whatever needs to be removed, received, released or raised up in your life, do it with the force of faith. Seize it with a grip which cannot be shaken off. Remember, you are an undefeated champion in Christ because of what Jesus did for us. Releasing the force of faith with you, Pastor George

2025 will come alive! This is our championship year! Watching our favorite team in any sport has always been exciting – especially when they're winning. But there wouldn't be much to watch if most of the players just sat on the sidelines, refusing to participate because they were afraid of getting hurt or just didn’t feel like playing. And the team definitely wouldn't make it to the championship game without enough people on the field. It takes all of the players being involved, coming together with their talents and strengths, to have a championship season. We're coming to the end of our first quarter in this 2025 championship year. So, are you in the game or sitting on the sidelines? Matthew 28:19-20 TPT says, “Now wherever you go, make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. And teach them to faithfully follow all that I have commanded you. And never forget that I am with you every day, even to the completion of this age.” Now, we’ve heard people say, “That’s not what I’m called to do,” or “I can just help support others and their calling while I stay behind the scenes.” But God wants EVERYONE to get in the game! He didn’t say to use only the best players in the church while the rest just cheer them on from the sidelines. He said, “wherever YOU go,” – He’s not only speaking to each of us individually in this scripture, but He’s directing the entire church to be the team He wants on the field. EMIC Outreach has many opportunities for you to use the gifts and talents He has given you. And we’re launching into our championship year with a chance for you to get in the game and help us fulfill this great commission!

Welcome to 2025! It truly is the year that we will come ALIVE! Pastor Terri and I have a very high expectation for all that will take place in the lives of our congregation. Here is a great scripture for you as we step into this new year. Psalms 65:11-13 (New Living Translation) says, “You crown the year with a bountiful harvest; even the hard pathways overflow with abundance. The grasslands of the wilderness become a lush pasture, and the hillsides blossom with joy. The meadows are clothed with flocks of sheep, and the valleys are carpeted with grain. They all shout and sing for joy!” Thank you for your faithfulness to bring your supply of the Spirit to our EMIC services. We are so thankful for you! We are in agreement with you and believe you receive a massive, record-breaking harvest. According to Philippians 4:19 (Amplified Bible, Classic Edition), “My God will liberally supply (fill to the full) your every need according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus.” As I was praying over this letter, I heard the Spirit of God shout on the inside, VICTORY OVER LACK! The definition of lack is to “fall short, come behind, be destitute and deficient.” It also means “to exist in a state of being without and not having enough.” Lack is very much part of the curse of the Law. Deuteronomy 28:38-40 (NLT) is a picture of total lack. It says, “You will plant much but harvest little, for locusts will eat your crops. You will plant vineyards and care for them, but you will not drink the wine or eat the grapes, for worms will destroy the vines. You will grow olive trees throughout your land, but you will never use the olive oil, for the fruit will drop before it ripens.” Verse 42-44 says, “Swarms of insects will destroy your trees and crops. The foreigners living among you will become stronger and stronger, while you become weaker and weaker. They will lend money to you, but you will not lend to them. They will be the head, and you will be the tail!” Jesus has delivered us from the curse of lack! Galatians 3:13-14 (New King James Version) tells us that, “Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us (for it is written, ‘Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree’), that THE BLESSING of Abraham might come upon the Gentiles in Christ Jesus, that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.” Take a look at THE BLESSING: “The LORD will command THE BLESSING on you in your STOREHOUSES and in all to which you set your hand, and He will BLESS you in the land which The LORD your God is giving you” (Deuteronomy 28:8, (NKJV). I really like what verse 11 in the AMPC declares. I use this quite often when believing God for supernatural provision. It says, “And The LORD shall make you have a SURPLUS OF PROSPERITY”! When we believe God, stand on His WORD, give and tithe in faith—we will NOT fall short, come behind, be destitute, be without, or deficient, in anything or in any way! Here are some outstanding scriptures to stand on to solidify our VICTORY OVER LACK. Deuteronomy 2:7 (NLT) —For The LORD your God has BLESSED you in everything you have done. He has watched your every step through this great wilderness. During these forty years, The LORD your God has been with you, and you have lacked nothing. Luke 22:35 (GOD’S WORD Translation)—“Then Jesus said to them, ‘When I sent you out without a wallet, traveling bag, or sandals, you didn’t lack anything, did you?’ ‘Not a thing!’ They answered.” James 1:2-4 (NKJV) —“My brethren, count it all joy when you fall into various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience. But let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing.” (The Message says, “Not deficient in any way.”) Psalm 34:10 (AMPC) —“The young lions lack food and suffer hunger, but they who seek (inquire of and require) The LORD [by right of their need and on the authority of His WORD], none of them shall lack any beneficial thing.” Psalm 37:25 (AMPC) —“I have been young and now am old, yet have I not seen the[uncompromisingly] righteous forsaken or their seed begging bread.” 2 Corinthians 9:8 (AMPC) —“And God is able to make all grace (every favor and earthly BLESSING) come to you in abundance, so that you may always and under all circumstances and whatever the need be self-sufficient [possessing enough to require no aid or support and FURNISHED IN ABUNDANCE for EVERY good work and charitable donation].” (The Revised Standard Version says, “You may always have enough of everything.”) Say this out loud: “I am redeemed from the curse of lack. The LORD supplies all my need. I have enough money and resources to do everything I need to do with much left over. No lack—only abundance. I attack lack with my declaration of faith. I have VICTORY OVER LACK!” WE HAVE VICTORY OVER LACK! Pastor George

Merry Christmas to you and yours! I have a high expectation that this will be the very best Christmas you have ever experienced. Thank you so much for BLESSING us at EMIC with your supply of the Spirit. I have been praying over the congregation and am expecting the manifestation of Psalm 65:11-13 to come alive before the end of this year. The New Living Translation declares, “You crown the year with a bountiful harvest; even the hard pathways overflow with abundance. The grasslands of the wilderness become a lush pasture, and the hillsides blossom with joy. The meadows are clothed with flocks of sheep, and the valleys are carpeted with grain. They all shout and sing for joy!” Say, “I receive that in Jesus’ Name!” “2025 Will Come Alive” is a word The LORD gave Brother Copeland regarding this upcoming year. John 10:10 tells us, “The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.” I like the Amplified Bible, Classic Edition that says, “I came that they may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance (to the full, till it overflows).” The Message tells us that Jesus was born so we “can have real and eternal life, more and better life than [we] ever dreamed of.” In the Greek, the word life is zoe. It is defined as “the God kind of life.” It expresses the highest and best which belongs to us in Christ. It is “life in the absolute sense.” There are no imperfections to the life of God—it is perfect, total and complete. There are no limitations to the life of God—it is over, above and beyond. There is no contamination to the life of God—it is pure, clean and holy. There is no darkness, death, disease, lack or fear in the life of God. There is only light, life, health, prosperity and faith. Jesus said in John 10:10 that He was born so we could have the gift of eternal life. The main theme in the Gospel of John as well as 1 John, is eternal life. The words “eternal life” appear 17 times in John’s gospel. For instance, John 3:15-16 (New King James Version) tells us “that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life. For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.” The reason Jesus was born was to bring the very life of God into our spirit man. Mark Hankins once said that if we could have a spiritual X-ray, we would see the very same life in us that’s in Jesus. The life that is in our spirits is the same life that’s in God. It’s called “Resurrection life.” It’s the God kind of life dwelling inside us that makes us overcomers! We know that “eternal life” is living with God forever. However, we experience eternal life right here on earth. It is in both the number of years we live as well as the quality of those years. There is a quality of life God wants us to experience today. Psalm 91:16 in the NKJV declares, “With long life I will satisfy him, and show him My salvation.” We receive the gift of eternal life when we make Jesus Christ The LORD of our lives. It is the life of God Himself that comes into our spirits and makes us new creations. It is a new kind of life. The very moment God’s life comes into our spirits, our lives begin to change. Acknowledge the life of God that is inside you right now by saying this out loud: I received Jesus as my LORD and Savior. His life has been imparted into my spirit, soul and body. The absolute life of God is working in me right now. I am getting stronger every day. I am supercharged with eternal life. The length of my life is increasing. The quality of my life is improving. 2025 is coming alive in me RIGHT NOW! Galatians 2:20 in the NKJV reveals that we “have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer [we] who live, but Christ lives in [us]; and the life which [we] now live in the flesh [we] live by faith in the Son of God, who loved [us] and gave Himself for [us].” Remember, Jesus was born so we could experience the fullness of the life of God right here on earth.
