"2013 Assignment for Souls"

We are off and running in 2013 and it's no looking back.  This year I believe God is stirring up Believers to engage in soul-winning like never before.   We know from (Mathew 28:18-20) "The Great Commission" has always been the heart of God.  He's not willing for any to perish, but all to come to repentance.  This is the work of the ministry.  Not just the preachers in the pulpit, but every Believer has been given this responsibility.  Many don't realize it simply because they haven't been taught that this has been commanded by God.   I must confess that I have not properly emphasized it at the Church I Pastor.   However, things have certainly changed.  This has become a top priority and focus at the Flowing Waters.  We must win the lost.
We not only are emphasizing this at Church, but our crusade ministry is putting focus on soul-winning.   In 2013 as we are planning and preparing for the crusades we want to impact every area that we go by seeing souls saved and added to the local Churches.   We are also planning to plant another campus in our area in 2013.   The entire goal is to reach as many with the gospel as possible.
I want to share a very special need that we currently have.  In 2012 while conducting a tent crusade, I crossed paths with Apostle Brian Young from the Eastern part of NC.  He is a mighty man of God, who travels internationally preaching the gospel and making a major impact.  He has been believing and trusting God for a tent.  In one of his trips he discovered a great need for a medical facility.  The vision is to have this facility under a tent.  As he was sharing this vision during our crusade the Holy Spirit prompted me to sow our tent into his ministry for the use of the medical facility.   I must say that it has always been a joy to give to the work of the Lord.   Well, now we are in need of another tent.  We certainly have seen God use a tent in many areas to bring people together to experience His awesome power.   For many years we have traveled and conducted crusades under the tent and still have a mandate to continue.  We have used the same equipment for many years and it certainly has been a blessing.  But, it's time to upgrade.  We are in need of another tent and some media equipment in order to be most effective in this ministry.   I have been looking and researching to see the estimated cost of all that we need for the tent ministry.   The estimated cost of all the upgrades will be $20,000.00.   Discovering this was quite shocking.  In fact, I must say that I even became a bit frustrated thinking on how this amount of funds would come in.   I'm not a begging preacher nor do I pursue money in ministry.  However, it requires money to conduct ministry. 
Two nights ago the Holy Spirit said something to me that has caused a burst of faith to come in my spirit.  He said, "receive what you believe."  I was thinking on this need at the time.  He said, "receive what you believe."  So immediately I rose up and begin to thank Him that we have received the necessary funds for the upgrade.  Then He said, "get the word out."  The Lord meets needs through  people.  This is the first way that we are getting the word out concerning the upgrade.  As a ministry we have positioned our faith and say that in the Name of Jesus the need is met.   As you read this I believe He will do the rest.  As He speaks, we obey.  Just like sowing the tent to become a medical facility.
There are several ways that are available to sow into this ministry for this cause.  Our website has a donation link on the last page.  You can sow online using any major bank card.   We can receive donations by phone.  Just call (919) 412-7890.   Of course, our mailing address is Marty Mason Ministries Inc.  P.O Box 436 Angier, NC 27501  for anyone that would like to mail in a donation.
We thank you in advance for hearing God and responding by faith.  This I believe is most pleasing to Him.  
Thank you for being Harvest Minded!!!
Marty Mason.
