October 2009
Dear Friends,
“Then Philip went down to the city of Samaria, and preached Christ unto them. And the people with one accord gave heed unto those things which Philip spake, hearing and seeing the miracles which he did. For unclean spirits, crying with loud voice, came out of many that were possessed with them: and many taken with palsies, and that were lame, were healed. And there was great joy in that city.”
· Acts 8:5-8
A Holy Ghost ‘Clarion Call’ to Bring in the Harvest! That is what the Lord spoke through me last month at a gathering of Indian Harvesters representing 16 of the 35 states of India, plus Christian leaders from outside the country – including Saudi Arabia. It was a powerful 4 days of teaching Kingdom on God principles to hundreds of Christian leaders gathered in a remote rural area some 240 kms outside of the city of Nagpur – a former British colonial governmental center in India, due to its central locality on the subcontinent.
The purpose of the 2-week conference, with thousands of Christian leaders from across India attending this bi-annual meeting, was to prepare and train harvesters to reach rural India with the Gospel. In particular - to train Christian Harvesters how to walk in Holy Ghost power to confirm the Gospel preached; a HS demonstration to bring idol worshippers to Christ. I was asked by Rev. Amos Singh to teach leaders. Brother Amos over the course of some 28 years of ministry, has won millions of Indians to Jesus – specifically, focusing his ministry upon the villages of India where 70% of the Indian population resides. Rev. Amos is a very humble and quiet man. He has impacted the state of Madyapradesh to such a degree that Hindu fanatics have made death threats against him.
In one period, Rev. Amos preached to 50,000-60,000 villagers per night for months (actually about 25 days per month) winning millions to Jesus in rural villages. In fact, he won so many Indian villagers in Madyapradesh state, that the ruling Hindu political party decreed that he was no longer permitted to conduct large crusades in the state, because of how powerful and important he became in the state among the people. He has spiritual sons throughout India who were former Hindus who saw the miraculous power of God first-hand; and who got saved and became preachers of the Gospel – He has one such spiritual son, who got healed from a life threatening sickness while attending a crusade as a Hindu; got saved, and now has a church of over 100,000 in Kerala, where we will minister next year.
What separates Rev. Amos from most Indian preachers (never mind the limitation – most preachers around the world) is his humbleness, humility and servant’s heart - I saw him early in the morning, cleaning the bathrooms of attendees of the conference who were gathered at his ministry complex – And his focus to win the villages of India for Jesus. By and large, Indian ministries focus upon the cities of India, although 70% of the people of India live in villages….Reason? Poor people have no money and can’t give offerings! Is there any clearer reason why India has no more than 5% of the population Born-again?
Why tens of millions of dollars go into missions work in India each year without a major impact? No – the ‘scales’ came off my eyes over the course of the four days, and God has showed me why we have not made a greater Gospel impact upon the 1.2 billion people of India.
My instructions from the Holy Spirit were clear – for harvesters to walk in miracle power, they had to be grounded in the Kingdom of Heaven: They were to walk in this world as ‘Citizens of Heaven’; and were called to ‘colonize this world’ for the Kingdom of Heaven under the Lordship of Jesus Christ. When they developed the spiritual mindset of being spiritual ‘colonizers’, then all of Heaven’s resources and anointing would be available to demonstrate to heathens, God’s Kingdom. Heathens will be willing to trade their gods for the Living God and salvation through His son Jesus! I have never been clearer on
what I am called to do in ministry; and God confirmed His Word with mighty Signs, Wonders and Miracles! In one conference, Great Joy in the City Ministries impacted a nation – it was the greatest trip I have taken in ministry…and it was the most difficult trip I have ever experienced, other than a trip to Quetta on a Afghan border in 2002, where I was nearly poisoned by gas heater fumes, while staying at a humble home while ministering during the height of the Afghan War. Although there was a tremendous price to pay in terms of physical hardships, infirmities, attempted thievery and satanic oppression – God’s grace was more than sufficient to see me through, and to bring total victory. I was put into the Refiner’s Fire and came out burnished gold from this trip…To God be the glory! I thank all of you who prayed and helped support this ministry trip to India – it will bear spiritual fruit that will impact a subcontinent of 1.2 billion people for years to come!
I need to finish this letter quickly, as I need to start packing for my next trip set for Pakistan starting on Wednesday. I am expecting that the same anointing to be present during the two pastor seminars I have scheduled for the cities of Multan and Sialkot.
Please find the schedule for the September 30-October 8 Pakistan Trip; I ask you to please pray for the meetings, attendees, travel and (of course) safety during this important trip.

To ‘Prepare the Way of the Lord’s Return’, by heeding the clarion call to bring in the end-time harvest. This is our calling: To train and prepare Holy Ghost empowered ministers to bring in the end-time harvest; and we are expecting mighty signs confirming this Word and calling!
Till next time -
You are loved and blessed of God – and by me,

October ‘09 BSCMF Letter

October 2009
Dear BSCMF Member,
“…always thanking the Father. He has enabled you to share in the inheritance that belongs to His people, who live in the light. For He has rescued us from the kingdom of darkness and transferred us into the Kingdom of His dear Son…”
· Colossians 1:12-13
I want you to commit the above scripture to memory and meditate upon it everyday during this month – It is the living Word of God; it is true and Jesus has paid for its reality in your life by His precious Body and Blood. This scripture will bring victory to you, your family and ministry on a daily basis!
Colossians 1:12-13, has three important components that I want to share with you: 1. You have a part of the inheritance of Jesus Christ: Jesus is ‘the last Adam”, and that means that Jesus has received all power, authority and dominion in this earth. Jesus has defeated Satan – Jesus has given you this inheritance; 2. Jesus has rescued you from Satan’s Kingdom: The Curse upon this earth and everything that pertains to it (sickness and disease, lack, want and need, oppression, defeat in life, etc), CAN NOT harm you if you will stand against it. According to Galatians 3:13-14, Christ has redeemed you from the curse, being made a curse for you; so that the Blessing of Abraham is upon you. You need to speak to the ‘mountains’ (obstacles) in your life; those things that are contrary to God’s Word and tell them “Go; leave me now, in Jesus’ name!”; 3. You have been made a citizen of the Kingdom of Heaven: Through Jesus Christ, you have been made a citizen of Heaven, with all rights and benefits as a citizen – All the Blessings of God are yours: all success, prosperity, ability; and God’s goodness and favor belong to you. As it states in the Lord’s Prayer: “God’s Will be done, on earth AS IT IS IN HEAVEN…” So, let me ask you: Is there sickness and disease in Heaven? Is there lack, want and need in Heaven? Is there failure in Heaven? You are a citizen of Heaven, and it’s your right to call Heaven’s goodness to the earth!
Now listen to me – You need to mediate upon the above scripture (think about what the scripture means to you, your family and ministry): How does the scripture affect your circumstances? What does the scripture bring in to your life? Then, speak to the bad things in your life and demand them to go; call God’s goodness into your life: If you will follow my teaching this month - By the beginning of November, your life will have changed greatly; and you will be walking in greater victory!
May God bless you richly,
Dr. Will Pantin
