Dear brothers and sisters in our Lord Jesus, part of the growing repentance remnant, cleansing as His Bride, getting ready for His soon return as our Bridegroom,
Yeshua/ Jesus' Words could not be more clear: " Assuredly, I say to you, unless you are CONVERTED and become as little children, you will by no mean enter the kingdom of heaven." Matthew 18:3.
This is repeated by Peter in Acts 3: 19: " Repent therefore and be CONVERTED, that your sins may be blotted out, so that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord..."
And sincere conversion from the flesh and the world's values is confirmed in this Word in 1 John 3:3 " And everyone who has this hope in Him purifies himself, just as He is pure."
And in Philippians 2:15: " ..that you may become blameless and harmless , children of God without fault in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you shine as lights in the world..."
Only the Holy Spirit knows the number, but one of the realities of the "Jesus Revolution" fifty years ago is that many were not converted. Many thought you could continue on in your own lifestyle, no matter how bizarre. [Lessons from the Old Jesus Revolution for the New Jesus Revolution www.askDrBrown.org --February 26,2023

Shepherds in churches need to equip the saints " for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ, till we all come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a perfect man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ, that we should no longer be children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, in the cunning craftiness of deceitful plotting, but, speaking the truth in love, may grow up in all things into Him who is the head---Christ---from whom the whole body, joined and knit together by what every joint supplies, according to the effective working by which every part does its share, causes growth of the body for the edifying of itself in love." Ephesians 4: 12-16
We pastors and priests need to count "converts" not occasional "members."
Join me in praying that sincere repentance, real conversion, is breaking out in these gatherings following the Asbury experience. Repentance comes before the Lord can heal a nation.
" Heavenly Father, in Jesus/Yeshua's Holy Name, may Your Word be revered and followed, opening Your Kingdom to those who have the humility of little children, sincerely converting from the old ways into which they were born and raised, into Your Way only. May a desire for purity based on Your Word be the calling for millions to enter by Your narrow gate.
May new converts display Holy Spirit fruit worthy of repentance, so that they are a witness to others. May a wave of holiness based on Your Word alone, spread nation after nation, dispelling the darkness. May Your Bride fervently cleanse to prepare for Your soon return as our Bridegroom. In Yeshua's Holy Name, Amen and Amen."

Every day we receive requests for funds for food and medicine from pastors preaching repentance who we determine have real needs. We help as we can. The requests exceed the donations. We look to you: no church, no denomination, no other ministry is behind us. Do please pray, and give cheerfully as the Lord leads.
Here are some current needs; please pray and help me to help them as the Lord leads:

Dear brother Jeffrey,
Greetings,
After a very successful "Uganda Kneels" with people repenting in
tears,the enemy is pushing hard against me.
We had 22 local church denominational representatives including Roman
Catholics priest ,Anglican pastors, Baptists and Pentecostals. There
was repentance, fellowship ,unity and good food. Six government
officials joined us including Police head in that community.Nothing
like that had ever happened before. God's pressence was real and two
families of church leaders got united. It was powerfully.
However,all that came at a cost.Up to now I still have some costs to
meet.The enemy tried to block funding.Not only for the seminar but
litetally everything.The hospital has zero medicine and yet we have
300 children to take care of, the bills have piled up,the car has
developed a gear box problem needing urgent fixing or I cannot move.
It seem the enemy wants to ground me in ministry inspite many open doors. My sponsors in ministry nolonger respond appropriately.
Therefore,I am taking days before the Lord in prayer with fasting. I
am always grateful for your prayer and financial support.please stand
with for basic medicine.About 1.2 million (usd 350 is needed urgently.
May God bless you
Pastor Isaac.Peter Oyako

Luke 8: 2-3 lists those who ministered to Yeshua/ Jesus "from their substance." Those women are a great model of giving today; we don't know how much each gave, but each is now recognized eternally in God's Holy Word.
Question: Do you identify with those mentioned in Luke 8:3? Are you able to provide from your substance, your finances, as a Luke 8:3 person today to advance His gift of repentance? Whatever the amount, if you give with a cheerful heart, fruit will abound to your account.
In the spirit of Luke 8:3,
God bless you,
