Proclaiming the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the Nations

September 11, 2014

Dear :

On this day of remembrance, as we look to God for His healing touch on our nation, we rejoice that He is ever faithful, never changing, the Three-In-One, El Elyon, the Most High God! What a mighty God we serve!

On that fateful day, September 11, 2001, I was preparing to depart for a mission in Zimbabwe. My flight was cancelled, as were thousands of flights that day, as the grim awareness of the deadly and demonic attack that was perpetrated upon our nation and its people that day became obvious. We were forced to postpone the mission...but rescheduled soon after, and saw God

Steven Stockwell sharing the Gospel at our CityCelebration crusade in Thulamahashe, South Africa.

bring thousands of people to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ during our work in Zimbabwe. We will not be deterred. The work of God goes on. Man cannot stop the Lord God Almighty!!

Tomorrow, my son, Steven, departs for a mission in Uganda. Please pray for Steven as he goes. Through his YES (Youth Education Strategies) school programs, we are believing that thousands of young people will say YES to abundant life in Jesus Christ!

Our July/August mission in South Africa was blessed with the glory and power of God. Through

outreaches including our

David Stockwell preaching the Gospel to students in Acornhoek, South Africa.

Evangelism Training Conference, School Programs, and week-long CityCelebration Crusade, we reached more than 30,000 people with a clear presentation of the Gospel; more than 12,000 publicly acknowledged Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, and prayed the Sinner's Prayer with one of our team members! We were also privileged to help with the distribution of more than 13,000 New Testaments, headed up by Steven, team member Keith Koerlin, and the fellow Gideons in South Africa.

Thank you for praying with us for God to move mightily in the hearts of people as we GO and TELL the Good News of Christ. Steven will be on mission in Uganda through the 30th of September. Amy and I will be traveling in the States in the coming weeks, and our NEST Philippines partners are busy preparing a mission project for November 5-24. Your faithful prayer and support are deeply appreciated -- thank you!

I am so glad that I get to be...

Your friend and partner in the Gospel,

David

DONATE NOW

DO IT AGAIN, LORD!

Borrowed from our dear friend in ministry, Dr. Ron Herrod.

September 11, 2001 will go down in history and live in infamy as perhaps the most tragic day in American history. It was on that day that the twin towers at the World Trade Center in New York City and the Pentagon building in Washington, D.C. were attacked by terrorists taking the lives of almost 3,000 people representing over 25 nations of the world.

Well-known author Max Lucado wrote:

Dear Lord,

We're still hoping we'll wake up. We're still hoping we'll open a sleepy eye and think, "What a horrible dream." But we won't, will we, Father? What we saw was not a dream. Planes did gouge towers. Flames did consume our fortress. People did perish. It was no dream and, dear Father, we are sad.

There is a ballet dancer who will no longer dance and a doctor who will no longer heal. A church has lost her priest, a classroom is minus a teacher. Cora ran a food pantry. Paige was a counselor and Dana, dearest Father, Dana was only three years old. (Who held her in those final moments?)

We are sad, Father. For as the innocent are buried, our innocence is buried as well. We thought we were safe. Perhaps we should have known better. But we didn't.

And so we come to you. We don't ask you for help; we beg you for it. We don't request it; we implore it. We know what you can do. We've read the accounts. We've pondered the stories and now we plead, do it again, Lord. Do it again.

Remember Joseph? You rescued him from the pit. You can do the same for us. Do it again, Lord.

Remember the Hebrews in Egypt? You protected their children from the angel of death. We have children, too, Lord. Do it again.

And Sarah? Remember her prayers? You heard them. Joshua? Remember his fears? You inspired him. The women at the tomb? You resurrected their hope. The doubts of Thomas? You took them away. Do it again, Lord. Do it again.

You changed Daniel from a captive into a king's counselor. You took Peter the fisherman and made him Peter an apostle. Because of you, David went from leading sheep to leading armies. Do it again, Lord, for we need counselors today, Lord. We need apostles. We need leaders. Do it again, dear Lord. Most of all, do again what you did at Calvary. What we saw here on that Tuesday, you saw there on that Friday. Innocence slaughtered. Goodness murdered. Mothers weeping. Evil dancing. Just as the ash fell on our children, the darkness fell on your Son. Just as our towers were shattered, the very Tower of Eternity was pierced.

And by dusk, heaven's sweetest song was silent, buried behind a rock.

But you did not waver, O Lord. You did not waver. After three days in a dark hole, you rolled the rock and rumbled the earth and turned the darkest Friday into the brightest Sunday. Do it again, Lord. Grant us a September Easter.

We thank you, dear Father, for these hours of unity. Disaster has done what discussion could not. Doctrinal fences have fallen. Republicans are standing with Democrats. Skin colors have been covered by the ash of burning buildings. We thank you for these hours of unity.

And we thank you for these hours of prayer. The Enemy sought to bring us to our knees and succeeded. He had no idea, however, that we would kneel before you. And he has no idea what you can do.

Let your mercy be upon our President, Vice President, and their families. Grant to those who lead us wisdom beyond their years and experience. Have mercy upon the souls who have departed and the wounded who remain. Give us grace that we might forgive and faith that we might believe.

And look kindly upon your church. For two thousand years you've used her to heal a hurting world.

Do It again, Lord. Do it again.

Through Christ,

Amen.
