Co-Workers, I told Mr. Mattson I would write you another
letter at once, and assured him, in FAITH, that God will move on
the hearts of our Co-Workers---and a much larger number of you---to
bring the daily and weekly receipts up to the equal of the
necessary outgo.
NOTHING BUT EARNEST, HEART-RENDING, PERSISTENT PRAYER, in
real FAITH, can bring this about. Co-Worker, your liberal offering
and faithful payment of God's tithe is direly needed now, but that
is not enough alone---the work of God NEEDS YOUR DESPERATE,
INTENSIVE PRAYERS AS WELL, that God will move in His irresistible
POWER on the hearts of others---many others---beside yourself---so
that there may be enough!
I say to you again, as I've said before, THIS WORK OF GOD
SHALL NOT FAIL! Unitedly we will lift our voices in earnest,
believing petition to Almighty God. To HIM we shall look! HE will
move on many Co-Workers who have been careless and neglected their
important part in His work. HE will stir others who are able to
send in larger amounts. In His way, thru those willing to respond
to Him, HE WILL SUPPLY OUR EVERY NEED---for He has promised it!
Hundreds of you have written me how thrilled you have been
to be able to read some of the thousands of letters coming in from
listeners. You've told me how it encourages you---how it overjoys
your hearts, to actually see this concrete evidence, (or at least
a very small portion of it) of what this powerful and dynamic work
of God is doing in the lives of MILLIONS of precious people---NOW
WORLD-WIDE!
Well, dear Co-Workers, if ever we needed encouragement it
is now! So once again, I have selected just a few letters at
random out of the thousands upon thousands that are coming in, and
I copy these letter for you here:
From Monterey, Mexico: "Dear Pastor: Last night, 8:30
P.M., over station XEG, I heard your sermon. It was great, as it
has been every time I have heard you. WHY do our children of
Mexico not get the opportunity to learn the true words of God---I
mean in our language? I am sending another check to you so it may
be used in God's work---it is tithes and offering---which I thank
my Lord for being able to pay. God bless you." Although we are
reaching many who understand the English language in Mexico, and
down into Central America and even the north coast of South
America, we are not yet able to reach these people in their own
language. My son Ted and another student, David Hill, are rapidly
learning to speak Spanish fluently, and one of our next moves will
be to broadcast the Gospel over South America in Spanish, but we
are not allowed to preach the Gospel in the Spanish language on
Mexico stations, by Mexican law.
From Ontario, Canada: "Dear Sir: I heard your broadcast
tonight quite by accident, and have never heard anything which
interested me so much. I would like to accept your offer of the
publication "The PLAIN TRUTH," and I heard something about the
United States in prophecy. The station I heard the broadcast from
was WKBW, Buffalo, N.Y. Thank you. Sincerely...." This is one of
