I have watched him grow and mature
from a tiny blue eyed infant to a six
foot tall handsome young man of high
intelligence and amazing gifts such as
writing. His father told me, “Honey, it
took me 25 years to learn to write as well
as Jonathan has learned in just a few
years. He has a gift.” He also loves music
and has a collection of many instruments.
Late at night we can hear the sounds of
a guitar or keyboard filtering through the
air vents.
One of the biggest challenges for
most children of noted ministers is
the struggle to discover who they are
without always being called the son or
daughter of so-and-so, and hearing
people speak of their parents. Many
ministers’ children experience a season
of resistance, the root being an effort
to separate themselves from mom and
dad to make it on their own without their
parent’s assistance. Some of this is a
part of growing up but can also become
a spiritual stronghold in many preachers’
kids we have met over the years.
Jonathan is greatly loved and we know
many partners who have seen him grow
up are praying for him to follow the Lord
and discover the long term will of God for
his life. I thank you for praying for Perry
and me and the kids.
PAUL WAS CONSIDERED A THREAT
to the Roman government. He was
arrested, locked in prison, and chained between two Roman guards. As he observed
the Roman guards’ outfits, he was inspired to draw an analogy between the Roman
soldier’s protective armor and the believer’s protective Armor of God. After hundreds
of hours of Biblical and historical research, Perry Stone has compiled a detailed
commentary on how to live in victory by wearing the Armor of God. This book has
insights and powerful revelations to help you win personal, practical, and spiritual
battles by putting on your “God Gear!” The conclusion of each chapter contains a
series of questions for research, and to help increase your spiritual IQ.

F E AT U R E M E S S A G E
WHAT TO DO WITH
BATTERED
ARMOR
ARTICLE BY PERRY STONE
oman soldiers were covered from head to toe
with protective gear when engaged in face to
face conflict. Once a Roman soldier engaged
in face to face combat with arrows flying
and swords slashing, the leather straps, metal
strips, and other parts of his armor could
become dented and battered. At times the
armor needed to be repaired. We have been given a shield of
faith, however in the four gospels there are four levels of faith:
no faith (Mark 4:40), little faith (Matt. 8:26), great faith (Matt.
8:10), and so great faith (Luke 7:9).
In Acts, the writer Luke spoke of men like Stephen who were
“full of faith” (Acts 6:5, 8). The faith covering over our heart is
a shield of faith. However, it is obvious that not everyone’s faith
level is the same as other believers. Four believers can stand
in front of the elders of a church for prayer (James 5:14) with
the same request. As prayer is offered, the four individuals may
have a different view of the prayer, from one of “I don’t know if
this will work,” to “Thank you Lord for hearing me,” or “I can’t
wait to get the next report from the doctor because I know God
is going to work!” Some shields are thin and flimsy and others
are thick and strong, but engaging in a combination of conflicts
at the same time can wear down the shield. At times, I have seen
people who were so battered from an extended battle that they
were in surrender and give up mode. What should we do with
battered armor? A unique passage from Isaiah holds a special
verse with a practical application to this question.
R
The prophet Isaiah wrote that the nations in darkness would
see a great light and those living in the shadow of death would
come out of (spiritual) darkness (Isa. 9:2). He spoke of the rod
of the oppressor being broken along with the yoke of burdens
(Isa. 9:4). He then speaks of the warrior’s battle when he writes
in Isaiah 9:5: “For every battle of the warrior is with confused
noise, and garments rolled in blood; but this shall be with
burning and fuel of fire.”
The Amplified version interprets the verse this way: “For
every [tramping] warrior’s war boots and all his armor in the
battle tumult and every garment rolled in blood shall be burned
as fuel for the fire.”
The idea of “confused noise” would refer to the heat of
battle, when the shouting, crying, screaming and sound of
horses hooves and clashing metal suddenly fills the air like the
noise of a rocket blasting from its base. A warrior must never
concentrate on the battle sounds but upon the battle strategy,
not upon the shouts of his enemy but the spoken instructions
of the Lord. When you are engaged in a serious emotional,
spiritual or physical conflict, there will be many voices giving
advice and warning, relating personal stories and telling you
their secrets to winning your battle. Often three people will give
you six strategies and suddenly there is confusion in your head.
In Isaiah 9:5, there is an important practical spiritual
application. What should Christians do when their minds and
hearts have been battered by so many conflicts that their armor
looks like a target at the shooting range? In the text the armor is

used for fuel in the fire. Battles are often
viewed as a struggle between two forces
where one loses, one wins, and when it’s
over the victor celebrates and moves on.
However, our battles and the beating
we endure should become the fuel that
ignites a burning desire to win the war
and move on to the next level of victory.
Years ago Satan made an attempt to
take the life of someone I love very dear.
While watching this person laying on a
bed in the emergency room, I knew this
was one of the strongest missiles ever
sent my direction, and it took a large
shield of faith to cover my spiritual man
to defend me from the lying arrows being
thrust at my mind. I had to rebuke the
spirit of death, the spirit of destruction,
and numerous other entities that were
attempting to cling to the mind and soul
of by beloved friend. I could hear all
types of voices trying to plant a negative
thought in my spirit.
At that moment, I was in a trial
of fire (I Pet. 1:7) and my armor was
being tested in the heat of a sudden
and unexpected hit from the adversary.
However, another fire rose up in me and
the zeal of the Lord began to stir inside
like a tornado forming out of my inner
man. I spoke out loud to the unseen,
yet very real, spiritual enemy behind
this assault. I said, “You think you have
intimidated us, but I am going to retaliate
against what you have done, and you will
regret this as long as I live.” At the time I
knew my intent, but not my mission, to
fulfill this prediction. However, from that
night of trial walking through the valley
of the shadow of death, a vision came out
of the fire to raise up a youth ministry
and minister to hurting teens and young
singles, bringing deliverance to them
through the power of the Holy Spirit. The
dents of the past in your armor become
the fuel for your destiny tomorrow.
Instead of moaning and groaning about
how bad it is, let the war become fuel to
burn a new vision and new direction for
your life and ministry.
We must learn how to take our most
serious trial or strongest temptation and
what was intended for our permanent
defeat, and make it the fuel of motivation
for ministry. Years ago a precious couple
saw one of their young children, a
beautiful girl under ten years old, die
from a disease. They stood in the gap for
her healing, but for reasons known only
to God, the healing never manifested.
These were not just emotional cracks in
their hearts, but they felt as though their
hearts had ripped out of their bodies and
they were like walking zombies with no
emotions except grief.
Someone shared a word with them,
that just as they were now parents
without children, there were many
children in the world without parents.
They should not focus on their great loss,
but find an orphanage and begin to raise
up their own spiritual children either in
America or in a foreign nation. Just as
they missed their child, there were many
children who missed having a mom and
dad. After researching, they discovered
that if they ministered to someone else’s
need, God would in return minister
healing to their own wounds. The death
of their child became the fuel to minister
to children with no parents. God wrought
a great healing!
What about parents who experience
the pain of watching a teenage or young
adult child die of a drug overdose?
Nothing is more heart wrenching than to
see a child die prematurely, knowing God
had more for them but addiction took its
toll on their bodies. While you can never
bring back that love of your life, there are
other parents whose children are on the
edge of destruction. You may be the one
lifeline who rescues them from drowning
INHERITING YOUR ANCESTOR’S DEMONS
Many believers have been inundated with teaching on
generational curses. For a redeemed Christian who is
redeemed from the curse, it is more likely that the
odd warfare may be the direct result of a demonic
entity that was connected to a member of your family
from past days and even previous generations. On
this audio CD, you will discover how to discern,
expose and defeat these spirits that have tormented
your ancestors, attempting to get into your life.

in a pool of despair and addiction, by
supporting or working with a rehab
center, becoming a counselor, or taking
time to spend with kids who just need
someone to talk to.
There is a well-respected television
program called “America’s Most Wanted,”
which helps track down the worst
criminals on the FBI’s most wanted list.
This program has exposed criminals on
the run and assisted in bringing them
to justice. The founder of this program,
John Walsh, lost his son Adam in July
1981, when the boy was abducted from
a Florida mall and found murdered two
weeks later. Out of their pain he and
his wife started the National Center
for Missing and Exploited Children
in 1984. He focused his anger toward
being a voice and leader to capture child
abductors, who are some of the worst
criminals in America! For Christians, our
attacks today become our testimonies
tomorrow. Let the dents become a sign of
your determination!
RECOVERING FROM A
FATAL FALL
The Roman armor was created by
melting metals and forming them into
molds, and it takes an intensive heat to
melt iron ore. From time to time, the
fiery trials of our faith become so hot that
we feel like we are burning in a furnace
heated seven times hotter (Dan. 3:19).
If the heat begins to melt the metal and
you are overwhelmed with disaster and
defeat, then take the molten metal and
form a new shield and set of weapons of
war to wear.
When Samson broke his Nazarite vow
by telling Delilah the real secret of his
strength, God’s “champion” was reduce
to a chump and the man who once
took the jawbone of a donkey and slew
a thousand Philistines was now blind,
bound, and in the prison house (Judges
John Walsh speaks during The National Center
For Missing And Exploited Children, the Fraternal
Order of the Police and the Justice Departments’s
16th Annual Congressional Breakfast at The Liaison
Capitol Hill Hotel on May 18, 2011 in Washington, DC.
16). He not only permitted cracks in his
armor, he simply didn’t have his armor
on when he was sleeping in the lap of this
charming manipulator named Delilah.
She played with his mind (no helmet on
his head); she manipulated his emotions
and his heart (no breastplate) and he
kept returning to her house for secret
rendezvous (where were the shoes he
should have been wearing ? Eph. 6:15).
That was a fatal fall for a mighty man.
Samson broke his covenant and the Spirit
of the Lord departed from him (Judg.
16:20). For months he was forced to
become a human ox bound to a grinding
stone, grinding grain for the Philistines
who enjoyed mocking this former Israeli
strong man. However, the enemy ceased
to pay attention to one important fact.
When a man’s hair is cut, it will grow
back in time, just as lost faith can be
found and restored. As Samson’s hair
began to grow, Delilah forgot to keep her
scissors close by (Judg. 16:22). The enemy
thought that since the Holy Spirit had
departed, the Lord was finished with this
human failure and left him permanently.
Samson’s hair was a reminder of his
Nazarite vow (Num. 6:2-21). On one
particular day, Samson cried out to the
Lord two simple words: Remember me!
The full prayer is in Judges 16:28, which
says, “Then Samson called to the Lord,
saying, ‘O Lord God, remember me, I
pray! Strengthen me, I pray, just this once,
O God, that I may with one blow take
vengeance on the Philistines for my two
eyes.”
Sampson’s fatal fall was not fatal in the
end, as he slew more in his death than in
his life. Samson is the story of a man of
God who forgot to protect himself from
his own weakness — a desire for strange
women. He could be the businessman
who leaves his wife for another woman,
or the minister who is bored with
ministry and is seeking a thrill from the
opposite sex. Some battles are minor
skirmishes leaving bruises, and others
are life and death strangleholds leaving
permanent scars. It is one thing to have a
crack in your faith or mind, but another
to leave your armor in the tent and walk
out spiritually unprotected without a
covering, thinking you are a superman or
superwoman, invincible from failure.
Samson’s comeback was so impressive
that he slew more enemies in the latter
moments of his life than his entire life
combined! This return from a fatal fall
was so significant in Israel’s history
that Sampson is called a man with faith
who pleased God (Heb. 11:32). Do not
just throw away dented armor — use the
wounds and cuts from conflict as fuel
for the fire to recharge your spirit. Take
the wood intended to cage you in, rip the
stronghold, and burn the wood on the fire
of your zeal as fuel to motivate you!ഩ

erhaps you are too young
to remember the days
when U.S. Presidents
would call Reverend Billy
Graham, the most noted
American evangelist in
modern history, to the White House
for counsel or prayer. Of course a few
politicians running for office have been
known to manipulate their connection
to him to their advantage by hoping
Graham’s popularity with Christian
voters would turn votes in their direction.

JULY–AUGUST 2012 | VOICE OF EVANGELISM
However there were more private
meetings than public ones from the early
1950’s onward, until Billy was unable to
travel and attend special events.
During recent years, there have been
few invitations to America’s Christian
leaders to come to the White House or
any other major branch of leadership,
since conservative Christians and Tea
Party members are continually ostracized
by the liberal media as backwoods,
uneducated people resistant to the
“progressive” culture and opponents
to change. The church has allowed the
media to use its bully pulpit on a daily
basis to pound viewers with the idea that
if you believe in the danger of Islamic
terrorists, you are “Islamaphobic,” and if
you believe marriage is between a man
and a woman, you are automatically a
hate mongering “homophobe.” If you
believe in America’s capitalist economic
system of freedom to work hard and
earn your own money to keep and invest
what you can for your future, you are
considered an insensitive, greedy human
being, since your wealth should be seized
by the government and handed out to
anyone who wants it. I seldom, if ever,
hear any response to these ridiculous
criticisms in the media, as the talking
heads on TV are like robots programmed
by the same source and repeating the
same ideas of hate against Christians.
I could respond to any of the
above liberal criticisms leveled against
conservative Christians, but the bottom
line is that the church in America has
lost its voice. The moral failures and bad
decisions of some noted televangelists
and certain mega-church pastors have
given opportunity for the “enemies of
God to blaspheme” (II Sam. 12:14).
America’s liberal universities have
brainwashed students into accepting
the perverted as the norm and America
as the evil nation that uses its power to
destroy others. These liberals worship
the creature (“mother earth”) more than
the creator and some have crossed the
line of no return by being turned over
to reprobate mind (Romans 1). As Paul
wrote, “Professing themselves to be wise
they become fools” (Rom. 1:22). They
believe you are your own god and your
destiny is to correct the simple faith of
those superstitious Christians. After
sitting under these self-made gods of

academia, students now injected with
pride and arrogance can be unleashed
on society to rationally “enlighten”
the common people at the urging of
professors who consider themselves
legends in their own mind.
The outspoken critics of conservative
faith have been masters of intimidation,
causing the average Christian to enter
a closet of silence to avoid being
confrontational. We have been living in
a dark closet far too long, and I am not
speaking of the prayer closet alluded
to in Matthew 6:6. We simply take the
hits and hide. In order to live peaceably
among all men (Rom. 12:8), and not
allow our good to be badly spoken of
(Rom. 14:16), many Christians have
12
JULY–AUGUST 2012 | VOICE OF EVANGELISM
moved from an aggressive, evangelistic
nation within the nation (the church is
a nation, see I Peter 2:9), to accepting
a Christianity of comfort and ease.
We sit in air conditioned churches on
padded pews with stained glass windows,
safe behind the four walls of our local
congregations. We smile as we enjoy a
two hour performance called a church
service on Sunday morning and return
home afterward feeling good about
ourselves that we were obedient to the
Scripture, not forsaking ourselves in the
local assembly (Heb. 10:25). Then at the
water cooler on Monday morning, when
confronted about the social and spiritual
direction of the nation, we remain silent
to remain popular, smiling instead of
speaking up, later wondering why the
nation’s convictions and foundation of
faith is being shattered.
At one time, national leaders sought
noted ministers for advice, prayer and
counsel. Since the late 1980s with the
shake-up of major televangelists and
some mega-church pastors, and years
of national media exposing the sins of
certain Catholic priests, the mighty voice
of the church has become a dull echo.
Just as in the days of Elijah when the true
prophets were hiding in caves, fearful of
threats being made by Jezabel, millions
of Americans haven’t bowed to Baal,
but refuse to challenge the false gods of
unrighteousness and stir up the fire of
God.
Years ago a noted medical doctor
shared a true story with me, about
how key government agencies have for
years monitored individuals or groups
considered possible threats to the
government. In the 1970s the Justice
Department had several ministers on
a special watch list because they were
afraid their influence could determine
public policy. Three of them were Rex
Humbard, Oral Roberts and Jimmy
Swaggart. All three were very influential,
since Rex had one of the largest churches
in America in Ohio, Roberts had the
highest rated telecast, and Swaggart was
building a large audience through radio.
Millions of people could be influenced
by these voices and this was considered
threatening to some in the establishment.
Move forward to the present. Recently,
there was a watch list with 150 names
on it of individuals and various groups
being monitored and considered possible
threats to national security. Based upon
the past, one would expect that a few
major ministries or outspoken ministers
would be on that list, but there are none.
The reason given was that the Christian
church in America poses no threat at all,
since when a large church reaches about
2,000 members it usually splits, and with
these divisions and lack of unity small
numbers of believers have little influence
or impact.
The second reason given is there
are no major ministers in America

(like Martin Luther King, Jr.) who
can unite a massive number of people
under their influence in huge marches
or stadiums. In reality, the American
church is considered a non-threatening
force. This is good in the sense that most
church members tend to mind their own
personal business and live in peace in
their community and have no interest
in violent uprisings. However, this also
reveals the weakness in the church’s
ability to speak as one voice and one
people. While we all teach we are headed
to one heaven to see the same God
and live in the same city, the church in
America is divided by doctrine, ethnic
groups, color, economics, and soul ties
to political spirits. Millions of Christians
Adversity can be self-invited and uninvited, but is
never invited! Believers must learn that adversity gives
opportunity for process and growth, if we understand
its purpose. On this two CD audio set, Perry selected

Biblical covenants that teach shedding
the blood of the unborn is sinful and
brings judgment on the land, or that the
spirit of Sodom is an abomination that
will destroy cities (Gen. 19). Yet, these
same knowledgeable believers vote for
politicians who pass legislation that
supports such terrible iniquities that have
destroyed previous empires.
Imagine this amazing sight for a

Here is another startling idea. From

“In the 1970s several ministers were on a Justice
Department watch list because they were afraid their
influence could determine public policy. A more recent
watch list had 150 names of individuals and groups
being monitored and considered possible threats to
national security. Based on the past, we would expect
that a few major outspoken ministries would be on that

the Christian faith in America, out of a

are never to be compromised.
It is time to come out of the dark! For
example, recently the CEO of Chick–
fil-A, Dan Cathy, a strong Christian and
a tither to the work of God, came out
in support of marriage being between
a man and a woman in an interview on
a Christian station. The national media
painted this godly man as a horrible
human and suggested because Cathy
supported marriage between a man and
women, his business should be boycotted.
Liberal mayors from several large cities
said they would stop any Chick-fil-A
restaurants from being built and even
shut them down. The church finally came
out of the closet, and on August 1, the
company had the single largest day of
sales in history of any restaurant. In my
hometown of Cleveland, the crowd was
so big that the parking lots were jammed
and people were standing outside for 2
½ hours to get in! This was the invisible
army coming out of the closet making its
presence and influence known.
The same occurred recently in
Chicago, when mayor Rham Emmanuel
made a negative statement against ChickFil-A that “Chick-Fil-A’s values are not
Chicago’s values.” Later, two of the most
influential ministers, one Baptist and the
other Cardinal Francis George, stood up
against Rham’s comments and informed
him that they would stand on the side
of righteousness and the Bible. When
the US President threw his support
behind gay marriage, there was a group
of African–American ministers who
decided to unite and tell the nation’s
leaders that they do not support his view,
and unless he changed his view, he would
not see their support.
This is the raising up of voices of truth
and righteousness that understand the
dangers when an arrogant and Biblically
ignorant nation tries to replace the
4,000-year statutes of the creator with
their own Ivy League theories of how
liberal values can better enlighten the
nation and erase valuable traditions.
Liberals have the TV networks, most
newspapers, and most college professors
supporting their ungodly, illogical, and
spiritually dangerous views. However,
we have a prayer closet in which we
have the weapon of intercession to take
dominion over principalities and powers.
However, when we come out of that
closet our influence must be felt on earth
by our voice, actions and involvement in
influencing the nation’s direction.
I suggest every person reading
this, if you have not registered to vote,
go register and vote your spiritual
conscience, as we need God’s favor more
than man’s ideas. Soon you will have two
choices so chose one and know you did

In 1 BC, a prophetic document was written that was hidden behind a synagogue
in Cairo, Egypt. Thirty fragments were discovered in 1896. Over 50 years later at
the Dead Sea, a second copy was found, dubbed the "Zadok Fragment," and later
called the Damascus document. Today, Damascus Syria is in the midst of its biggest
civil war and scholars are predicting the coming destruction of Damascus based
upon Isaiah 17:1. Perry gives you strange prophetic details from this document and
explains why Damascus is often overlooked, but a major key to the Antichrist's
arrival and the use of weapons of mass destruction. Watch Damascus!

Retailers have chosen the winners in the 12th annual
Retailers Choice Awards, sponsored by Christian Retailing
magazine. They selected their best of the year from among
the 300-plus products nominated in 41 categories. Perry
Stone’s book Purging Your House, Pruning Your Family Tree
won the award in the Charismatic category.
Introduced in 2001, the Retailers Choice Awards have
been increasingly acknowledged as an important way
of recognizing some of the most significant new lifechanging products in the Christian retail industry. Products
nominated were judged on the impact they had on staff and
customers, including their ability to speak to hearts and
evoke emotion, open minds to new ways of thinking and
encourage and affirm Christlike living.

EXPOSING SATAN’S PLAYBOOK
I have personally written over 60 books, some of which have been out
of print for many years. I have also ministered on many spiritual
warfare applications since the earliest days of my ministry.
However, this new book has more new insight on the subject
than any book or series of messages I have ever preached!
When I read the final manuscript, I kept thinking that the
Holy Spirit wrote this through me because I never could
have put forth the revelation without his insight and
anointing. This will be the most helpful book on the
conflicts we are engaged in, how to deal with them,
and what to do that you have read in some time.
Please order it through the ministry since your
order helps continue our outreaches!

A TRIBUTE TO AUNT JANET
My mom’s sister, Janet
Williams, was one of
my earliest ministry
partners, supporting me
since I was 18. She kept
every VOE magazine,
from the earliest eightpage articles copied on
a copy machine, along
with every book I wrote.
Years ago she moved to
Cleveland and worked
faithfully at the VOE
offices. Janet served as
a loyal and dedicated
employee for twelve
years and did her job
well and filled the atmosphere with a contagious laughter that
echoed from where she was and bounced off the walls into
other offices, bringing a smile on the faces of others at their
desks.
On Janet’s last day before she retired, we were all a little sad
because it felt to everyone that a family member was departing.
However, one of the most moving moments was when she read
a poem she had personally written. We want to share with you
the words she wrote expressing her feelings about the ministry:
Janet, thank you for many years of faithful and loyal service
to the VOE. You have worked for a crown and may God reward
you greatly for your efforts!
And when he preached his first sermon in my Dad’s church.
It wasn’t the drums that he went there to play
God had another plan for him, and it started that day.
Our family would travel for miles to hear him preach,
From small churches to those that seemed beyond his reach.
The years brought revivals, camp meetings and more
And I patiently waited for my time to be born.
So at age sixty-two to the Social Security office I went,
I could have waited for more money to be spent.
But why should I wait another three years,
When God’s guiding your path, there’s nothing to fear.
Since Dad had left us and gone to his Heavenly home,
My mother was living with us and couldn’t be left alone.
So when I asked her if we moved what she would do,
As my faithful friend she said, “I’m right here with you.”
So, now was the time to pursue this God-given desire
And with a job for Willy and an apartment acquired,
We made the move to Cleveland with not a second thought
The fifteen year dream was fulfilled that I’d sought.
Mom and I wasted no time as we came straight to VOE
Faithful volunteers each day we determined we would be,
Until the day she was taken to meet Jesus and my dad
Leaving all her friends and family so very very sad.
A Poem by Janet Williams
The day I got the call when I was feeling so alone
Asking if I’d like to work and answer telephones,
I thought it wouldn’t matter if I worked or volunteered
It was all the same because I’d always be right here.
For 13 years my life has seemed like a wonderful dream
That all started with news that was devastating, it seemed,
When my boss said, “Your job here is done, we’re moving away”
But I would receive the desire of my heart that day.
Those days turned into years until finally there were nine
It was a happy ride with these new friends of mine.
We laughed, we cried, shared the good times and bad
I’ll forever cherish all those times that we had.
Standing in Perry’s two-room office in Cleveland in ‘85
I looked at the cassettes on the wall and started to sigh.
Monty Franklin wouldn’t be able to keep up with it I knew,
And God said to my Spirit “One day you’ll be here, too.”
So today I wouldn’t even think of telling you goodbye
While at 75, this season of Winter sits right by my side,
I’ll only say so long to all my VOE family
As the very first retiree —here at VOE.
Being his aunt, I knew Perry from the time of his birth
Written June 17, 2012 for my retirement from VOE.
MY DREAM FULFILLED
SO GRATEFUL FOR YOUR SUPPORT!
Word cannot express how much Pam and I appreciate your support this season. Always remember that your gifts, weather they
seem large or small in your eyes, are always observed by the Lord and are very much needed and appreciated. We have the OCI
building, the Study Bible project, the future camp and mentoring school in addition to the basic every day expenses to reach the
world. We had an unexpected donation from an anonymous source that was a great help through the summer. To whoever this was,
your assistance will never be forgotten in such a monumental time.

THE OCTOBER SURPRISE
I always hear people in positions to obtain “inside
information” talking about an October surprise. There
is more discussion now than ever before of something
happening during the month of October, yet the surprise is
unknown or only speculation. Some expect Israel to make
a move against Iran at this time, while others suggest it
will be after the first of the year. I do know the Holy Spirit
is giving me perhaps the most stirring and eye opening
revelation I have had this year, and I plan to preach it at
the Hixson Conference October 9-13. I am asking you to
please plan to attend as many services as possible and if
you can only make it on the weekend, please do. Some of
what I share might be omitted from being taped toward
the conclusion of the message, but I believe it needs to be
revealed to the church! Details for the meeting and hotel
information is on the website under “Conferences,” or
you can call (423) 478-3456. You will hear Tommy Bates,

MENTORING HAS BEGUN
In September we began our new mentoring cycle for those
who desire to be in leadership and ministry. We have about
35 – 40 people, mostly under the age of 30, who participate
on Thursday nights in 28 sessions for mentoring. This is
part of our new outreach which is to impart knowledge
and wisdom to the sons and daughters. We also deal with
Christian apologetics, which is a defense of the Gospel in
an effort to train these youth to defend the Christian faith.
Mentoring is not a new concept, but it is a great blessing to
those who may not have the money or time to be taught on
a more academic level, but can still enjoy insight and learn
valuable truth that can be used on a practical level. We

The 2012 Huntington, WV Conference on CD and DVD
Throughout the year, the Holy Spirit births new messages to preach in our conferences. Huntington, however, is always the one
meeting, where there is a double release of prophetic insight poured upon my spirit from the Lord, enabling me to see into the spirit
realm and discern the times (1 Chron. 12:32). I say this humbly and in fear of the Lord, as all revelation comes from the Holy Spirit
and out of the Bible. It may be linked to the seasons of Teshuvah that normally begin in August, in which the gates of heaven open
to receive repentance and prayer in the highest level, leading into the Day of Atonement. Many of my friends, partners for over 25
years, attended the Huntington Conference and agreed the messages were eye-opening and life changing and commented that the
word of the Lord was stronger that in the past. I want you to hear what was said and why Christians must heed these messages, or
the nations is on a dangerous abyss. The titles are:

THE MOST IMPORTANT FINANCIAL BOOK
THAT EVERY CHRISTIAN SHOULD READ
How concerned are you about your financial future? America is
leaving an unsustainable debt for future generations to repay.
Government debts, high taxes, economic recession, and instability
in the housing and job markets are causing anxiety about our
financial security.
However, your fears will be overtaken by faith and confidence
as you read Perry’s landmark book, Financial Security in the Last
Days. Perry gives you practical and prophetic insights concerning
economic cycles of prophetic empires, the future significance
of gold and silver, and how God has provided you total provision
through the atonement.
Learn how God can use your enemies and transfer their wealth
into your hands. Perry explains a dynamic “Noah and Lot code,”
revealing how prosperity and business success will be a sign of the
sudden and unexpected return of Christ!
This book will increase your faith and reveal simple, practical
steps to breaking the spirit of poverty and lack in your life. A
believer’s future is never bleak, but bright, and spiritual and
practical knowledge is the fire that will melt the fear of financial
provision in the last days. One man who had read 200 books about
finances stated this was one of the best faith building books he had
ever read! Order you copy now!
