March 2024 Partner Letter
Springing Into Action
God bless you members and partners! I want to start this letter off by saying “thank you”, to all of you for your continued support for the vision at KCC. We are progressing very well in our goals and so much of our fruit is due to members who believe in the ministry. As I pondered what to write about, I was reminded of the need for action and more specifically “faith driven actions.” James 1:22 gives us one of the foremost foundational verses relative to taking action:
James 1:22 (NKJV)
Don’t be just a hearer of the word but a doer also.
What does God mean when He says, “don’t just hear the word?” I believe that God is saying to imitate Him in acting on the Word, we both hear and speak. Notice that since the beginning of creation God would speak a word and then we would see the product of what He said. He said, “Let there be light, and there was light.” However, most people do not realize that God also backed up His words with actionable steps to enact His will. He not only spoke the word, but He “did something.” When God made man, He did two things: 1. He spoke and 2. He formed. This means He put action to what He said. Hear the word of the Lord concerning the principles of speaking and acting:
Genesis 1:26-27 (NKJV)
26 Then God said, “Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.” 27So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them.
Genesis 2:7 (NKJV)
And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being.
In the Genesis account, God spoke so many things into existence but when it came to man he literally spoke and acted when He formed man from the dust. Every believer should make it their daily business to put “action” on what they are believing for and saying. It is our job to “make our world,” we must take life by the horns and create what we want. Solomon, one of the richest men who ever lived, had a revelation of action beyond just words.
Proverbs 14:23 (HCSB)
There is profit in all hard work, but endless talk leads only to poverty.
It is recorded that Solomon had all types of business activity going on around him constantly. I believe that Solomon was very diligent in his action, and this led to great levels of success in his life. So much so that other well-made people came to hear his advice:
1 Kings 4:34 (NKJV)
And men of all nations, from all the kings of the earth who had heard of his wisdom, came to hear the wisdom of Solomon.
Faith creates the prosperity that we desire in our lives. Most importantly, speaking and acting are the key ingredients to fulfilling the mandate that God has on each and every one of our lives. We must spring into action.
So, what’s going on with the Vision at KCC? As of today, we continue to celebrate our first year of debt freedom! God is so very amazing, and I am so very grateful to all our donors for your love and support for the ministry. Today, we are building what I have coined our “Project Account.” There are so many initiatives that we would like to get done for the glory of God. As of today, we are considering another brick-and-mortar building to house our ministry activities, “we need more space.” I, along with some of my team members, are meeting with architects to do a “feasibility study” to gain insight on the exact type of structure to best support our futuristic vision. We are also continuing to expand our broadcast reach. Recently, our reporting in just the Charlotte market revealed that we have reached nearly 3 million households in 2023! These results are tremendous. As you know, we are in at least 5 states today and our reach is going very wide, “we are getting the Gospel out!” We are asking you to prayerfully consider partnering with us at greater levels so that we can obtain more TV markets and build our “Project Account” in preparation of more campus development and acquisitions. We are also continuing our mission of the Grace House by helping women and children catch up and win in life! I’m excited about those ladies and babies who are being helped in that ministry. Thank you partners for your contributions. I believe that now is the time to “prepare for expansion.” I am so grateful to all our partners and know that as you help us reach lives you will partake in the same grace of success that is on our ministry. Know that I am praying for you often. Please also write us and tell us your testimonies of success as you sow into the vision.
With Love, Pastor Gabe
