Greetings, beloved faith family!

Throughout this year, we have witnessed the faithfulness of God's Word through various manifestations of victory and vindication. Testimonies abound of significant positive changes in health, family relationships, careers, and finances as we released our faith for the prophetic promise of validation at the beginning of this year. God spoke to us, saying, "This is a continued season for supernatural victory and vindication. I have returned to redeem, replenish, and re-launch you. Only believe! Your faith in My word will be validated. I have brought the blessings I promised you now!" As you read this letter, I trust you are in perpetual faith in God's promises, eagerly anticipating their personal fulfillment.  Always remember that the promises of God manifest in our lives as we ask in prayer, purposefully agree in our hearts, and persistently confess them with our mouths. 

Seeking God's wisdom, I have earnestly prayed for a faith strategy to maintain and exponentially increase the momentum we have experienced as a church family this year, especially during the upcoming summer. God reminded me that not only is it His will to increase us, but he plans to do it exponentially!

The Lord is mindful of us and will bless us, our families, and all those who fear Him, regardless of their status. According to Psalm 115:12-14 KJV, the Lord will increase us and our children more and more. While it is God's will for an exponential increase to happen in our lives, the vehicle through which He brings His promises to pass is our faith.

In Romans 4:16 KJV, we learn that people receive what God has promised by having faith. This allows the promise to be a gift available to all. Every promise, principle, or prophecy from God's Word follows a faith process for its manifestation. I have received a faith strategy that will promise exponential increase, enabling us to experience a "Summer of Supernatural Significance."

During my time in prayer, the Holy Spirit reminded me of a principle that draws God's attention, intervention, and devotion to any prayer request or causes we desire to see in Heaven’s involvement. Jeremiah 31:3 KJV declares that God has loved us with everlasting love, drawing us with loving-kindness. When God demonstrates love, He shows us unwavering attention, intervenes through divine participation, and displays devotion by preparing for us. God's A.I.D. to us consists of Attention, Intervention, and Devotion.

God's ultimate cause is to rescue, redeem, and restore humanity to Himself. His love demonstrated is what He uses to draw us. Therefore, in principle, our love demonstrated toward God is how we draw Him to us. By committing to showing A.I.D. to God's cause—displaying our Attention, Intervention, and Devotion to rescue, redeem, and restore people to Him by presenting Jesus to our family, friends, and loved ones—we draw God to our cause for the exponential increase that we desire.  

I ask that you partner in faith with me in experiencing a “Summer of Supernatural Significance” by showing up for “God’s Cause” in your Service, Support, and Supply. 

First - Show up for “God’s Cause” with Your Service. 

Our service to the Kingdom of God defines our greatness in the Kingdom of God.  I am asking that you make the Kingdom commitment to serve at least two hours per month as a volunteer.  We have several areas available each week for you to serve as the hands and feet of Jesus to make an impact in the lives of those who come to Great Faith Church to receive instruction, impartation, and inspiration from God’s word.  I have scheduled a Volunteer Zoom Call on Saturday, June 3, 2023, at @11 AM for our current and those called to connect to implement the volunteer strategy God has given me to experience a “Summer of Significance.” 

Next - Show up for “God’s Cause” with Your Support. 

Our mutual prayers, and worship of God during the times of in-person ministry make a tremendous impact on the lives of those that God draws to our ministry.  You are valuable, needed, and necessary.  Decide to increase your attendance at the in-person or streaming faith events on the calendar throughout the summer.  The sacrifice of your time opens your ear to hear God’s direction to experience a “Summer of Significance.” 

Finally, Show up for “God’s Cause” with Your Supply

Thank you for the incredible way you have financially supplied Great Faith Church with your tithes and offerings during the first trimester of the year.  Because of your faithfulness, we are ahead of where we were last year.  God has given me a financial faith goal for the summer that will not only sustain us financially but also cause us to abound with a surplus financially.  God’s plan for financial increase involves giving our financial supply, strategically, systematically, spontaneously, and sacrificially.  I am asking that you keep your heart open to hear the voice of God as it pertains to your giving in those various areas.  We have a promise that whatever we make happen for the Kingdom of God, God will make happen for us. (Ephesians 6:8 KJV)

Thank you for partnering with Pastor Angela and me in faith to experience a “Summer of Significance.”  As always, I am honored and tremendously grateful to be a voice that you trust to hear from God for direction and destiny in life. I pray that you continue to embrace the principles of God’s word and grow in your faith, drawing closer to God and fulfilling His purpose of rescuing, redeeming, and restoring humanity.
