Dear Partner,

I pray that this letter finds you walking in the blessing of Abraham -- empowered to have success in every arena of your life. Favor and peace be unto you from God our Father and from the Lord Jesus Christ.

"I thank my God in all my remembrance of you. In every prayer of mine I always make my entreaty and petition for you all with joy (delight). [I thank my God] for your fellowship (your sympathetic cooperation and contributions and partnership) in advancing the good news (the Gospel) from the first day [you heard it] until now. And I am convinced and sure of this very thing, that He Who began a good work in you will continue until the day of Jesus Christ [right up to the time of His return], developing [that good work] and perfecting and bringing it to full completion in you. It is right and appropriate for me to have this confidence and feel this way about you all, because you have me in your heart and I hold you in my heart as partakers and sharers, one and all with me, of grace (God's unmerited favor and spiritual blessing). [This is true] both when I am shut up in prison and when I am out in the defense and confirmation of the good news (the Gospel). For God is my witness how I long for and pursue you all with love, in the tender mercy of Christ Jesus [Himself]! And this I pray: that your love may abound yet more and more and extend to its fullest development in knowledge and all keen insight [that your love may display itself in greater depth of acquaintance and more comprehensive discernment], So that you may surely learn to sense what is vital, and approve and prize what is excellent and of real value [recognizing the highest and the best, and distinguishing the moral differences], and that you may be untainted and pure and unerring and blameless [so that with hearts sincere and certain and unsullied, you may approach] the day of Christ [not stumbling nor causing others to stumble]. May you abound in and be filled with the fruits of righteousness (of right standing with God and right doing) which come through Jesus Christ (the Anointed One), to the honor and praise of God that His glory may be both manifested and recognized]."  (Philippians 1:3-11, AMP)

I want you to know that your affiliation with Merton L. Clark and Truth Revealed Ministries benefits you through what I call "Progress through Partnership or association." Because of our covenant relationship with God, we and our children can expect to increase more and more (Psalm 115:14). God desires to increase His covenant people; therefore, He is mindful to bless us (verse 12).

Genesis 13:5-6 says that Lot owned flocks, herds and tents, and that the land was not able to contain both his and Abraham's possessions, "…for their substance was great…" My question to you is this: How did Lot obtain so much increase? The answer is found in his association with Abraham -- a man who had received the blessing, or an "empowerment to have success."

When you associate with others who wear the blessing, you experience increase by association. I believe that this ministry is blessed; therefore, your association with us should cause increase to take place in your life just as increase took place in Lot's life.

Genesis 30:27 tells how Laban, Jacob's father-in-law, experienced increase because of his association with Jacob: "And Laban said unto him, I pray thee, if I have found favour in thine eyes, tarry: for I have learned by experience that the Lord hath blessed me for thy sake [or on your account]." Laban went on to say in verse 28, "Appoint me thy wages." In other words, "State your salary and I will pay it." Laban's association with Jacob brought so much increase into his life that he was willing to pay whatever salary Jacob decreed to be fair.

By partnering with, and sowing financially into the ministries of other men of God, this ministry has experienced increase by association, and so have I. Praise God!

In the name of Jesus, I declare increase over your life right NOW! You are my partner. Remember that your association with this ministry brings INCREASE. Praise God!

We love you very much. May God continue to increase you more and more, for you are blessed!

Sincerely,

Merton L. Clark                                                        Become a MCM Partner today!
