January ’10 Partner Letter
Friday, January 1st, 2010 | GJITCM Partner Letters | No Comments
January 2010
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
I am writing this letter from the island of Borneo, where Christina and I are celebrating Christmas and New Year’s. We head to a rainforest resort tomorrow (4 hours by 4-wheel drive vehicle, and a 20 minute river boat ride); and since I am not too sure about the internet capabilities of the place we be staying at, I thought I’d better get this done today.
I am very excited about 2010; during my time of prayer over the past few months, the Lord spoke to me and stated that “2010 would be a year of tidal wave manifestations of His power and glory”. Specifically, the Lord asked me about what happens during a tidal wave; I answered – it destroys everything in its path. The Lord said, “Yes, and a divine tidal wave of my power and glory will destroy all Satan’s manifested activities that it comes across.” The Lord then asked me what else happens – and I stated it changes the terrain of the land that crosses its path; and the Lord said, “Yes, and this divine tidal wave will change the land that it inhabits – by creating Heaven upon the Earth.”
I was very excited about what the Lord stated, but then he said – “But do not seek it”: All you need to do is to seek me, my Kingdom and my Righteousness; and you will experience it beyond what you could ask or think. Ever since that Word from the Lord, I have been seeking God’s Kingdom – My citizenship status within the Kingdom of God; and I have been seeking God’s righteousness – NOT JUST RIGHT-STANDING BY FAITH, BUT BY ACTIVE PURSUIT OF HOLINESS. Ever since, the Lord has manifested His presence, favor and grace to Christina, myself and GJITCM beyond all we could ask or think. The truth of Hebrews 12:14, rings out with great clarity and understanding – “Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord”
Dear friends – if I can encourage you in only one way for the New Year – 2010 – I will declare to you, to seek God’s holiness. As the Word states in 1 Peter 1:16, “Be ye holy, for I am holy”. Don’t seek things, don’t seek prosperity, don’t seek success, don’t seek God’s power; but ONLY seek God – Your citizenship in God’s Kingdom and His Righteousness; and all these other things will be added to you!
GJITCM is excited about 2010; we are moving to a new level of ministry and expecting mighty results during the year – manifestations of tidal waves of God’s power and glory. To start the year, we are planning for a trip to Pakistan at the beginning of February. I ask you to pray for this trip; not only for safety but for great manifestations. The schedule is as follows:
Feb 4 – Arrive in Lahore
Feb 5 – Gujranwala Pastor Faith Seminar
Feb 6 – Gujranwala Pastor Faith Seminar
Feb 7 – GJITC Church of Lahore Meeting
Feb 9 – Sheikupura Pastor Faith Seminar
Feb 10- Sheikupura Pastor Faith Seminar
Feb 11 – Leave for Singapore
We are expanding our ministry during this trip, holding pastor seminars with over 1,200 pastors and church leaders in attendance. In particular, we are really stretching our faith for the Gujranwala seminar. There will be over 800 Christian leaders participating from not only evangelical churches; but the majority of the participants will be from denominational churches including the Roman Catholic Church. This will be one of the largest Christian leadership conferences in Pakistan; and in consideration of so many denominational leaders in attendance, one of Pakistan’s most important Christian gatherings.
We thank all of you in advance who sow seeds for this trip – you are going to receive a great harvest from such a groundbreaking trip. Well, I need to run for now – Seek God’s Kingdom and righteousness and you will see Tidal Wave manifestations of God’s power and glory in 2010!
You are loved and blessed of God – and by me,
Dr. Will Pantin

January ’10 BSCMF Letter
Friday, January 1st, 2010 | BSCMF Newsletters | No Comments
January 2010
Dear BSCMF Member,
“Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord”
· Hebrews 12:14
The Lord towards the end of 2009, gave me a Word regarding the New Year – 2010. The Lord said, “2010- Tidal Waves Manifestations of God’s Glory and Power”. Imagine God’s glory and power in such an awesome measure that it will be like tidal waves – Praise the Lord! But along with that awesome Word from God, the Lord spoke to me and said – “But for you to experience such a powerful manifestation of power and glory, you need to walk and strive for Holiness on a daily basis…Be ye holy for I am holy!”
Holiness before God; in today’s world, we do not like to talk or hear about Holiness. We also think that since Jesus has paid for our righteousness that we can live by grace – even if it is acting like the world and walking constantly in sin. In fact, there are ministries around the world who are focusing upon the grace of God to the exclusion of declaring to Believers the need to walk in holiness and obedience to God’s Word. But if we were honest with each other, it would be clear why so many Christians do not walk in the fullness of God’s Blessings…Never mind the FULLNESS of God’s blessings, many Believers do not even walk in ANY of God’s Blessings; and Believers are living just like the world, full of troubles and sorrow!
It states in Hebrews 12:14: “Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord”. Was the writer of the Book of Hebrews talking about seeing God in the natural – with our eyes? No, I believe that the Holy Spirit was stating that if we did not walk in peace with all men and walk in Godly Holiness, that we would not see God – IN MANIFESTATION: God’s healing and health, God’s prosperity, God’s success and increase – The Fullness of God’s Blessings!
Pursuing Holiness needs to be a priority in your life in 2010 – On a daily basis. One key to walking in Holiness is to understand that God hates sin. If you will keep that fact in your mind on a daily basis, it will keep you in line to walk upright before God. God does not hate anything but sin, because sin brings the curse and death to man; and sin separates man from God. But along with reminding yourself that God hates sin, you need to always keep in mind that you are going to fall short in walking perfectly before God, and that you need to lean upon your savior, Jesus Christ to help you. So don’t get upset if you miss the mark; just keep on pressing forward and seeking Holiness. God will see your diligence and faithfulness, and Jesus will give you right-standing and help. Walk in Holiness in 2010, and walk in God’s best!
May God bless you richly,
Dr. Will Pantin
