Dear Friends and Intercessors,

I come before you to ask for prayer over our finances. Our bills are paid, and we thank the Lord for continued provision. However, in October WFJM (along with ministries all over the country) began to experience financial struggles.

We know there is uncertainty about the economy, but God is His mercy, pushed back certain dates (IMF ultimatums, the IMF vote on the CDR, etc.) set in motion by current leaders. These were not prophetic declarations, but rather dates wherein significant events were set to take place that would bring the United State's financial position in this world down, significantly. Because of those plans, we forged ahead in prayer, while encouraging people to stock up in preparation. Pray and prepare. That is wisdom.

When God intervenes on behalf of our nation thereby delaying the crisis set for tomorrow, we give Him praise, and then move forward in the work He calls us to accomplish. Now, I come before you to ask you to partner with us in completing the tasks the Lord set before our ministry, today.

In addition to the many outreaches our ministry has, with the holidays coming up, through our CedarWood department, we strive to reach deep into the community in the Seattle area to meet their needs. We purchase everything from coats to boots, and toys to turkeys to help meet the needs of struggling families. With the rise in homelessness, we are working to provide coats, blankets, sleeping bags and other supplies to help keep them warm during the winter months,

Joel's Army is growing rapidly. We have regular international travels that occur to teach, train, and aid in strengthening those prayer cells into stabilizing prayer shields for their nations. This effort will help preserve nations for the Kingdom of God.

Check out the "Ministries" portion of our website to learn more about the work we do both here and around the world. And, pray for us. Pray for God's provision. Pray for His direction. Pray for His wisdom in all things!

Blessings & love,
Ricci
