YOUR KNEES IN URGENT BELIEVING PRAYER, and also to your post-
offices with the largest offerings you can possibly send at this
time!
Here we are, in the midst of the usual let-down after most
people spent themselves poor buying Christmas presents! All retail
stores have to put on January sales in order to keep going.
Co-Workers, we can't put on sales--we can't offer bargains--I can
only ask you with all the urgency and sincerity at my command to
TAKE THIS TO HEART, to GET TO YOUR KNEES--to DO all that God has
made possible for YOU--and let us unitedly send up our earnest
petitions to GOD, so that the income for GOD'S PRECIOUS WORK will
be brought back up to its required quota once again--and QUICKLY!
One man said he couldn't understand why, if this is the
very WORK OF GOD, I have had to say at times that this work could
DIE unless we remain faithful and vigilant. LISTEN! Please under-
stand! God works thru human instruments. We are the human
instruments He has chosen for His use. WE can fail! God made us
free moral agents. WE must each decide whether to remain true and
faithful to our part in God's work. GOD DOES NOT FORCE ANY MAN!
Yes, we can fail even tho GOD NEVER CAN! But if WE get careless,
let down and fail, THIS WORK--even tho it is now the very WORK OF
GOD--will DIE--and we Co-Workers would die with it! Of course,
God's PURPOSE cannot fail. If WE fail God will raise up others and
continue His work thru those who will be more willing and faithful
and sacrificing than we. And God would then require the blood of
all we fail to reach AT OUR HANDS! Our punishment would be AWFUL!
It is a great and wonderful PRIVILEGE God has granted us to be His
servants--His instruments in HIS VERY WORK! Let us be glad and
rejoice! Let us PRAISE HIM--and in heartfelt gratitude GIVE
THANKS! Let us PRAY as never before--and sacrifice as never
before!
Co-Workers, come to the rescue! From the heart I THANK
YOU, and may God bless you richly!
With great love, in Jesus' name,
Herbert W. Armstrong
