UnitedStatesBibleSociety: Newsletter
March 1, 2015 

Welcome to the Monthly Newsletter of the United States Bible Society. Our goal is to keep you informed on our Community and Ministry. Below is a word of encouragement, a thanksgiving, a look back, a look forward, our financial statement, and what we need to meet the vision the Lord has placed on our Hearts. Please enjoy and Pray over this Months Newsletter.

Have You Been Knocked Down?
Stand Up and Fight
                 

Have you ever been knocked down by circumstances in your life? Over the last few months I have been experiencing some physical challenges. I had surgery in December to remove some infected wisdom teeth which exposed some tumors in my sinus cavities. The tumors were removed and the sinus cavities had to be be rebuilt. In the process I have nerve damage in my lower front jaw. It feels like I have been punched in the Mouth with a swollen lip and numb lower teeth. This along with some project challenges in our Ministry had me seeking prayer. I told my wife it feels like I have been knocked down in a fight and was reminded of Ephesians 6:12, For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Quickly I remembered our enemy and his devices. How could I have forgotten about this battle, our objective, but when we get knocked down in life it seems we loose our focus but the Word of God restores our sight. We must get up and fight the enemy even when we get knocked down. In our Online Church Services this month we are learning how to fight the enemy and in our Daily Devotions we are learning strategy for each days battles. As I talk to others, hear prayer request and pray, I can see that you are under attack too. In making application we need to see that we are in a Spiritual Battle. Let us not loose sight of the true enemy, his devices, our Victory in Jesus, and that we are experiencing Spiritual Warfare. But most of all when we get knocked down in life, let us not lose our focus, let us grab the Sword of the Lord, Stand Up and Fight. 

 

Thank You
My Personal "Thank You" 
    
"Thank You," to all those who are apart of this work as we continue to set records for Webhits, Souls Saved, Bibles Distributed, Devotions Emailed, Bibles Downloaded, Audio Bibles Accessed, and Online Bibles Accessed. It is a total team effort as You Pray, Supply Funds, Make Visits, Answer Emails, Place Phone Calls, Provide Bibles, Deliver Bibles, and Share the Gospel. Your labor is not in vain as I receive mail every day of souls being saved and lives being changed. Let us be encouraged to press to the mark of continuing in the Lord, to do His Will, and His Work in these last days.
Looking Back
More Growth:  
A Short Month produced large numbers with 1.63 million web hits which was our second highest for a Month.  These web hits coupled with the contacts we make through e-Devotions, Church Services, and Email Correspondence allowed our Ministry to connect over 3 million times in 120 countries. Over 4,000 Bibles were delivered, Almost 400 souls saved, 23 thousand receive our devotions for discipleship and 34 thousand receive our Online Church Service. Praise the Lord!!! Financially, our Church Partners gave over $20 thousand dollars in the cost of Bibles being delivered but we still did not connect on all request with $8 thousand dollars needed for delivery of Bible Requests that are beyond our Church network. Going forward we are trusting the Lord to meet every need. I never thought the Lord would use us in such a large way but we realize that it is Jesus-Christ doing the work. We Thank the Lord for what He is doing and again thank you for asking the Lord how you can be apart of this Ministry.

Looking Forward
Walking Together To Reach Our Vision: 
     
It is very exciting to see how the Lord keeps using us to reach so many. It is to the point where we cannot reach all who need us with out the help of others. Praying the Lord would send labors for the harvest as we need you to pray and follow the Lords prompting to join this work of the Lord.  I am very excited about all we reach but very burdened about those we fail to place a Bible in there hands. We are praying that the Lord would prompt others to help us get to a goal of 100% fulfillment of All Bible Requests. You can make a difference in giving to this Ministry as your spare change will change lives with every $5 donation placing a Bible in the hands of a needy soul.  Prayer is needed more than any financial gift as God is so faithful to meet the needs through the prayers of of the Saints of God. Thank you for Partnering with us. Our goal is to reach the world in Evangelism and Discipleship using the Word of God in Print, Electronic forms, and Audio forms as we fulfill the great commission.  We look forward to working with you this year. Thank You !!
