 | Merry Christmas from Jerry, Jan, and family.
My Dear Friends:
You have no idea how wonderful it is to have friends like you. Over the past 12 years, we have seen so many wonderful things. It seems that there could never be enough words to express the love and appreciation we have for you. I want to thank all of you for your love and friendship you have shown Jan and me this year. As most of you know, this has been a year of mountain climbing for us. After almost 6000 services over a 12 year period of time we have learned what some of you have gone through.
It is one thing to look at someone who cannot walk and say, “get up and walk.” It is another thing to tell someone who feels so weak that they can not move to, “just believe” - and then, when even the doctors don’t offer much hope, to look and say, “Jesus loves you.” I have learned what the path some of you have been on is like, and my love and appreciation for your courage has grown beyond belief.
For those of you who do not know, earlier this year I almost died. The doctors said I only had 7 weeks to live. My heart was only pumping about 20%, so they said I would die of congestive heart failure. If that did not get me, they said I had lumps on my lungs. If that did not get me, they found cancer on my back. And if that did not get me, a paralysis hit my legs. I also had diabetes with sugar levels almost at 500.
The devil likes to come in and make us feel alone. He likes to say in the night times that no one cares or understands. Then, just at the last minute, our precious Holy Spirit moves on you to call or drop a note of encouragement—at the exact time when it is needed the most. Thank you for your prayers and support.
Now, to share the miracles the Lord has done. My heart is almost back to normal. The cancer and lumps are gone, and my sugar levels are almost normal. The only thing I am fighting right now is the paralysis and pain and weakness in my legs.

I had asked the Lord what He wanted us to do. He said, “Get ready for the next revival.” I asked, “How Lord?” It was then He provided us a place to hold prayer meetings, and later workshops on prayer and revival - a place to train those looking for the fire of God.
I was watching TV the other day, and a preacher came on who was talking about a life-threatening disease he had. Just like me, he was at the point of death and could barely walk. He said he soaked himself for almost a year in the Word of God. Day and night, he played the Word of God, until it finally hit him. Faith cometh by hearing, hearing a word from God. Even though he had listened to hundreds of hours of tape, all of a sudden, a verse jumped out, and he knew he was healed.
So, that is what I am doing. I really believe we have a covenant with God. I really believe we have His promise to heal. I really believe we have His Word. So, I prayed the other day. Jesus, if I give a promise to someone to do something, then I must do it. You said, “These signs shall follow them that believe… lay hands on the sick and they shall be recover. Thank you, Lord, for keeping Your word. I will fill myself with Your Word now until it finally does its job.......

As I was studying the Word one night, Holy Spirit led me to Proverbs, Chapter 4. He asked me to change the word “Wisdom” to “The Word of God”. Let’s see how it reads that way.
Pro 4:5 Get The Word of God,
get understanding: forget [The Word of God] not;
neither decline from the words of my mouth.
4:6 Forsake The Word of God not,
and The Word of God shall preserve thee:
love The Word of God,
and The Word of God shall keep thee.
4:7 The Word of God [is] the principal thing;
[therefore] get The Word of God:
and with all thy getting get understanding.
4:8 Exalt The Word of God,
and The Word of God shall promote thee:
The Word of God shall bring thee to honor,
when thou dost embrace The Word of God.
4:9 The Word of God shall give to thine head an ornament of grace: a crown of glory shall The Word of God deliver to thee.
4:10 Hear, O my son, and receive my sayings;
and the years of thy life shall be many.
4:11 I have taught thee in the way of The Word of God; I have led thee in right paths.
4:12 When thou goest, thy steps shall not be straitened;
and when thou runnest, thou shalt not stumble.
4:13 Take fast hold of instruction; let [The Word of God] not go: keep The Word of God; for The Word of God [is] thy life.
Pro 4:20 My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings.
Pro 4:21 Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart.
Pro 4:22 For they [are] life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh.
