“Hands for the
Harvest” (Acts 28:8-10), our non-profit ministry, is the vehicle through which our
outreach partners can participate in bringing or sending Ray and Michelle to
minister the Gospel as well as making The Picture of Health® teaching series
available to others through media outreach and publications.
What Partnership
Is:
According to the Word of God, true partnership is a covenant relationship.
The Biblical word for "partner" is "koinonos," which literally means
"partaker" together. Interestingly, the word is very similar to the word
"koinonia," which means communion, fellowship, or intercourse, which
Christians have through Christ with The Father.
Covenant relationships are holy to the Lord and require faithfulness on both
parts; they are not one-sided. In particular, ministry partnership is a
relationship between those whom God joins together to support one another in
service to the saints, witness to the nations, and the sharing of His great love
for all.
Our vision partners are those who are committed to this ministry
and share its vision of the "...perfecting of the saints, for (the)
work of ministration, for (the) building up of the body of the Christ." Eph
4:12 (Young's Literal Translation). We call our partners "partakers" and
"fellow-helpers", for together, by His grace, we are God’s “Hands for the
Harvest.”
What's Your Part?
Your part is the same as ours: Pray. Serve. Give.
PRAY.
We pray for all of our partners daily for His plan, purpose, protection, and
provision, which contain His wisdom. If you have specific concerns or requests,
please send those to us by email and we will be pleased to pray the Word of God
over your request, joining our faith with the Word for His best for your life,
Spirit, Soul, and Body.
As God leads you, we ask you to pray for us. We ask you as you remember us to
the Lord, to pray according to 1 Corinthians 2:1-5 that our speech and our
preaching are not with enticing words of man's wisdom, but in demonstration of
the Spirit and of power, that your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men,
but in the power of God. And from Colossians 4:3-6, praying also for us, that
God would open unto us a door of utterance, to speak the mystery of Christ, that
we may make it clear, as we ought to speak, that we will walk in wisdom toward
them that are without, redeeming the time, and that our speech be always with
grace, seasoned with salt, that we may know how we ought to answer every man.
SERVE.
Our lives and our family's lives are committed to seek God and receive
revelation that we may give you what God so freely gives to us. In the writing
of books, in teaching sessions, through video or audio media, and periodic
partner letters and gifts, we promise to serve our partners with His Word as the
Lord provides the platform.
Your commitment of service is simple. Attend meetings, conventions, or
events, as you are able. Volunteer at gatherings we may hold in your area and
pray for those that are held elsewhere. Open your heart for God to lead you in
ways your service can further the outreach of this ministry. The very best
service you can give right now is to tell others about the work of
the Lord being raised up in this exciting time!
Be ambassadors of the Word by
giving gifts of the books to family, friends, and others who will be blessed by
His provision.
Partnership is a mutual exchange of faithfulness. There is no dollar amount
required to become a partner. Partnering with this ministry should be considered
prayerfully and done as an act of love for God, for people, and in willing
obedience to God.
GIVE.
This ministry operates by faith and God is always faithful, sending the right
people at just the right time with just the right gift so that every need is
met, exceedingly, abundantly above all that we can ask, think, or imagine.
God is our source! But, Glory to God! He is daily using our fellow-helpers,
true partakers, to be channels of provision so that we can increase in the
sending forth of His Word, building up the Body of Christ.
What is your support used for?
Your giving helps to provide materials and locations for ministry and classes
all around the globe, assists with the budgets for church-based services
and meetings, helps to cover the production and duplication costs of CD's,
DVD’s, books, etc., travel expenses to and from these ministry events, and more.
We are thankful for the
outpouring of support to this ministry which helps provide the vehicle and vessels for the working of the Lord's power in many lives. If you would like to be a part
of sending His life-changing, life-saving Word worldwide, your tax-deductible financial gifts may be sent to the address on our Contact Us page.
We appreciate all that you do for the kingdom through
partnership and we pray Gods continuous favor and blessings in your
life!
