 Precious
Letters from Our Readers
We thank God for the many letters
of counsel and encouragement we have been receiving. It is the
only way we can evaluate our progress. Keep them coming. Our
desire is to foster a free flow of edification, inspiration
and burden from us to you, and you to us. This way we can pass
some of the blessings on to the others who are reading. We would
love to hear from you in any of the following ways:
- A meaningful lesson in family
devotions that you can pass on to other fathers.
- A testimony for The Blessing
Corner of Gods blessing in some area of obedience.
- A question that can be answered
to the edification of all.
- An area of spiritual growth,
obtained by one of the exercises suggested in the magazine.
- A word of encouragement or
counsel about The Remnant, or any section of it.

Dear Charity Ministries,
Greetings in the Holy Name of the Lord! It
has been very much on my heart today to write a note of testimony
to what God has been doing in our lives since we came home from
Youth Bible School. Indeed, HE has begun a good work & we
trust Him to continue it until the day of Jesus Christ. He brought
us back home praying for revival.
Our prayer life has so deepened & grown,
it is unlike ever before. Oh, we bless the Lord for coming down
in our midst & breaking us & teaching us of Him. We
are learning things we never knew of before; of what it is to
travail in prayer, to come away with our eyes stinging from
having wept so much. What a wonderful blessing to see my sister
(16 yrs. old) go apart as often as she can to pray. Even going
away from visiting with friends to meet with her Lord. And our
brother (13)...crying out to God for the souls in Ghana in a
prayer meeting of us 3 children a couple nights after we came
home. Oh, the burden for souls that He has bestowed, both far
& near! The Lord did exceeding abundantly above all that
we could ask or think, & has given us the privilege to begin
interceding together. The first week we were home not a night
went by but that all of us youth were gathered before the throne
pouring our hearts out to the Lord in prayer (and other times
too during the day). Prayer for those in authority over us,
prayer for laborers for the harvest fields of God, & intercession
for the unreached multitudes of the world. And for ourselves
that God would start His reviving work in our own hearts &
lives; then we could see it spread from therethat He
would be glorified in all the earth. And by Gods grace,
we are continuing in that vision, & it is growing. Now Mama
is joining us too, and we are praying for Dad daily.
As we have been before Him our own undoneness
has become so evident. Many times His precious Spirit has convicted
us of sin & then in yielding to Him there is such cleansing
& freedom in the power of His Blood! Alleluia. We bless
His Name for breaking us & molding & transforming us
into His likeness. To Him be all the glory!

Dear Remnant,
May the grace of our Lord be with
you all. Thank you for being such a wonderful ministry. I rejoice
in the Lord for the talents you have used for His glory. Thank
you for being there to help others and to work for His Kingdom.
Have you ever considered translating the Godly Home into Spanish?

Dear Remnant,
You have been heavy upon my heart
for several weeks and I have wanted to write you a letter of
thanks and encouragement. God the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ
has greatly ministered to others and me through the Remnant
magazine. In a world where there are so many ministries that
are leavened by worldly ways, songs, and doctrines, I thank
God for the truth that you publish. The teachings you publish
are truly living waters and the bread of life. Thank you for
standing for the truth without compromise.
God is establishing a body of
believers in our dayroom, and we are warring against the flesh
that hinders the Bible studies we have started. Many of the
men have been delivered from the false doctrine of divorce and
remarriage. We are now praying for restitution in all of our
marriages, and we are refusing the lies that say that men in
prison can not be fathers and husbands. We can pray, write letters,
and pray that God will turn the hearts of our authorities. We
believe that God can do this, if a man serves God with all his
heart in prison.
I would like to be a part of your
church someday if God permits. Thank you for being obedient
to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

Dear Charity Ministry,
My wife and I have been lead down
a road quite unexpected. We were not raised in an atmosphere
like the one Bro. Denny teaches about. The kind of faith that
we grew up around was quite weak. We thank God that He has put
in our hearts a vision that is parallel with His will. We have
chosen to homeschool our children and allow the Lord to set
the size of our family. We strongly desire to raise up a godly
seed. God is showing me the purpose of Christian families and
I am amazed how far we as a nation have fallen. My goal as a
pastor is to show and teach families the holy standard of Gods
Word. It is truly beautiful. I praise God for having mercy on
me by letting me see these wonderful visions. However, I fall
drastically short and feel way behind. At this time, I am unsure
where God will lead us from here. I would love to live for a
while in an atmosphere of like-minded brethren. I would also
like God to transform us right here where we are that we might
manifest His sweet will in front of the congregation we presently
serve.
All of this said, I wanted your
ministry to know that it has a like-minded pastor in Oklahoma
strongly desiring the Lord to raise up the remnant for His glory
in this nation. I long for my family to be heavily involved
in serving God proclaiming the truth in word and deed. I also
covet your prayers. I feel somewhat alone in this area and do
not want to fall short in my calling.
