March 2011

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

As I mentioned in last month’s letter – Great Joy in the City Ministries is believing for greater Kingdom power and impact in our ministry. Every one of the GJITCM staff is pressing in to deny ourselves, taking up our crosses and following Jesus; knowing as it states in Luke 6:40, “Students are not greater than their teacher. But the student who is fully trained will become like the teacher.”  We are focused upon ministry breakthrough and increasing our Kingdom impact to turn the world upside down!

In February we have started to experience that breakthrough and impact; in particular during my ministry trip to Mysore, India; and also during a GJITCM-Pakistan Women’s Ministry

Seminar in Lahore that was conducted by Sister Mehwish Jeet – Director, GJITCM-Pakistan Women’s Ministry. During both set of meetings, the Kingdom of God was preached and God confirmed His Word with mighty signs following!

My ministry trip to Mysore, India had a major element of breakthrough attached to it. I went to Mysore to conduct miracle meetings over the course of two nights: meetings that were hosted and funded by local pastors.

To the Western ministries that operate in India, and who know how dependent the Indian Church is upon those ministries – especially when conducting meetings – they will recognize that the Mysore trip was a major spiritual breakthrough. I give God all the praise for the demonstration by local Mysore pastors in their faith in God’s ability to meet the financial needs of the meetings. I also give God the praise that Great Joy in the City Ministries and Bond Servants of Christ Ministerial Fellowship (BSCMF) is bearing great and tangible fruit, through our teaching seminars and discipleship/mentoring of Church leaders!

The meetings were modest in size, in comparison to our normal GJITCM miracle meetings; but we give God all the praise for the 400+ people in attendance, and don’t despise the days of ‘small beginnings’. In fact, I purposely traveled to Mysore because of this demonstration of faith, and understanding the spiritual implications of the meetings. It also must be said, that I believe that this breakthrough taking place in Mysore is of significant meaning. The city of Mysore is the most historical British colonial city in India – from this area, the British defeated the Indians (as well as their French allies) in the late 1700’s and began the 150 year British Rule of the sub-continent. India, although it’s independent since 1947, still has ‘dependency’ upon Westerners – and as I stated, especially Christian ministry. For this spiritual breakthrough to take place in the city and area where western dominance and dependency began has great meaning and significance to the nation of India and the sub-continent. I believe we will be seeing greater faith levels demonstrated by Indian pastors and 5-fold ministers, who will put their total faith and trust upon God to meet their ministry needs!

Last month was also a time of ministry breakthrough for GJITCM, as our Pakistan staff made the first steps towards elevating their ministry work to a national level. As you have read before in these letters, GJITCM-Pakistan is expanding its ministry throughout the entire nation of Pakistan – every department believing to preach the Kingdom of God with Holy Ghost signs, wonders and miracles!

We saw the first fruits of that vision being fulfilled as GJITCM-Pakistan’s Women Ministry, under the leadership of Mrs. Mehwish Jeet, conducted a women’s faith seminar. Over 70 women attended the faith seminar that focused upon Kingdom teaching. God confirmed his Word mightily with signs following. The GJITCM staff has truly picked up their spiritual assignments and has stepped out in faith with God confirming his Word.

I give God all the praise for the confirmation given to us through the ‘first fruits’ of Kingdom ministry we conducted last month – I believe that this is just the beginning!

Till next time -

You are loved and blessed of God – and by me,

Dr. Will Pantin

March ‘11 BSCMF Letter

March 2011

Dear BSCMF Member,

“I assure you, most solemnly I tell you. Unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains [just one grain; it never becomes more but lives] by itself alone. But if it dies, it produces many others and yields a rich harvest.”

·         John 12:24 (AMP)

I have been a Born-again Believer for over 30 years, and I have been in full-time ministry for over 15 years – many of you know of my humble beginnings and how God raised me up to be an investment bank on Wall Street managing a US$1.2 billion dollar portfolio; and many of you know of the Kingdom impact of our ministry with many signs, wonders and miracles. Dear Brethren, what I have to tell you is probably one of the most difficult spiritual truths that the Body of Christ DOES NOT want to hear – but it is the main key to release the power of God into your lives and ministries: Without self-sacrifice and self-denial, you will never open the door to the fullness of God’s divine plan for your life and ministry; and furthermore, you will never fully walk in the power of God that will impact nations!  I have come to the conclusion that the Body of Christ around the world does not want to hear this truth; and it is the main reason why the Body of Christ walks in little Kingdom power and impact that changes nations; unlike the Early Church that impacted the world!

Understand this Kingdom Truth: Sacrifice and self-denial releases the power of God. I will give you one example of the truth of this statement – you all know and have practiced fasting? What happens when you Fast? There is a release of Holy Spirit Power that changes circumstances and brings you to a higher level of ministry. Without sacrifice, we can’t enter into the “Holy of Holies” – the deeper place with God, and go to higher level of anointing and Holy Spirit power. Just look at the Old Testament – what did the High Priest have to do before he entered into the “Holy of Holies”? The High Priest had to make a sacrifice at the ‘altar of sacrifice’, which was located at the door entrance of the tabernacle. After the sacrifice was made, the High Priest was able to proceed and enter into the Holy of Holies. Sacrifice had to be made to go deeper into the presence of God. Jesus stated in John 12:24 that unless a seed falls to the earth and dies it will never produce a harvest. You need to look at yourself as a seed that will produce a harvest for your life and ministry. Unless you die to self, you will never truly produce Kingdom fruit. This is probably the biggest problem in the Body of Christ, for everyone is seeking “self-related things”. Yes, we have the citizen rights to be rich in the natural and we will be promoted by God so that our names and ministries will be known around the nation – but if that is your motive for life and ministry, you have NOT DIED TO SELF. Remember, Jesus is our role model – What happened when people tried to make him King? He ran away into the mountains. Jesus never sought His Will, but only did the Will of God and gave God all the glory. Do you want to walk in Kingdom power and impact? Then you need to learn how to die to self!

May God bless you richly,

Dr. Will Pantin
