Dear friend:
Let today be your day! Our author Brad Henry makes several
valid points about revival when he writes, “We need a
revival in this country and it doesn’t need to start in a
stadium of 100,000 people. It needs to start in you, and
then another and then another. Can you make a commitment
today to let Jesus do the CPR, instead of someone or
something else? If you are thinking that possessions,
status, and wealth will give you the jumpstart you need, you
are wrong. It is God, and God alone, who can only bring you
back to life. “Let today be the day. “Find a quiet place
and pray for a revival in your heart. One person can
encourage many when the Lord is behind it. If the Lord is
not behind it, nothing will happen. “Let the revival in
this country start with you. You are not reading this by
chance. God has sent this message to you to be a light in a
dark world. Take a stand for Jesus, but first of all you
need to be revived. Are you ready for a new life? Yes, you
are. Get ready because the Lord desires to do a great work
in you.” This passage is from Brad’s exciting new book,
Destination—the Winner’s Circle. We were proud to
show this book at the ICRS Convention in Orlando last month.
It was so good to have Brad there with us. His book is doing
very well, and we hope you will order several copies of it.

and will continue to ignite those fires. By the way, if

We had hoped that Ray Comfort would be able to join
us again this year, but unfortunately illness
prevented him from attending. We’re happy to report that
he is feeling better, though. Ray’s most recently
published books are:
-
How to Know God Exists (ISBN:
978-088270-432-6; $12.99). In this revealing book
Ray applies basic logic to three clear evidences for
the existence of God. This compelling apologetic
effectively disarms the beliefs of atheists.
-

978-0-88270-585-9; $11.99). Ray raises 101 questions
to shake evolutionists’ blind faith in Darwin’s
theories. Well-known evolutionists reveal in their
own words the unscientific nature of their beliefs.
-
101 of the Dumbest Things People Have Done
(ISBN: 978-0-88270-555-2; $5.99). This treasure
chest of laughter is a very effective evangelistic
tool that leads the reader gently to God.
During the autumn season we will be releasing a
great new book by Ray. It is entitled Comfort
Food, and this dynamic book supplies the
believer with liberating insights into God’s ways,
truths, and plans based on the Word of God and Ray’s
experience as an evangelist. (ISBN:

Receiving God’s Promises
Let me conclude this newsletter by
quoting from one of our recently published
books,
Preparing Yourself for God’s Promises
by M. Denise Baccus (ISBN:
978-0-88270-476-0; $12.99): “Similarly, the
promises of God are ‘Yea’ and ‘Amen.’ This
double affirmation further emphasizes the
reliability of God’s promises. Yea indicates
that something has been confirmed to be
true. Amen literally means, ‘It is so and
shall be so.’ Simply put, yea confirms the
truth of God’s Word, and amen serves as a
witness to its truth. This was ultimately
revealed in Jesus Christ (see John 1:1,
14-17), who is the truth (see John 14:6) and
‘the Amen, the faithful and true witness’
(Revelation 3:14). For this reason, whatever
you ask of the Father in the name of Jesus
will be given to you (see John 14:13-14).
Expect it now!” Visit the author’s web site
at
http://www.mdenisebaccus.com/.
Denise is absolutely right. God’s promises
will never fail. May you become a
promise-reaper today and always.
Sincerely in Christ,
Lloyd B. Hildebrand
