“Return to Me and I will return to you, says the Lord of Hosts.”
Zechariah 1:1-4
Dear Friends & Partners,
Have you ever thought that the Lord has forgotten? The name Zechariah means “Yahweh Remembers.” This prophet was sent to minister to the exiles returning to Jerusalem, only to find their once splendid city and beloved temple in ruins. There was much to be sad about; however, the prophet proclaimed messages of hope, restoration, justice upon Israel’s enemies, and ultimately, redemption from a coming King- the Messiah. The prophecies had two purposes. First, a call to be cleansed from their sins and to experience the blessings of God. Secondly, a proclamation of encouragement and comfort for the restoration of the temple, in addition to any other future work. God promised to remember His covenant with His people and live in their midst. Through His very presence, among His people, God would accomplish miraculous works.
Folks, America is spiritually much like that beautiful city in ruins desecrated with the sins and moral decline of it’s people. The very foundation of this nation has begun to shake. We have seen the consequences of these actions and likely, many more. However, in the midst of it all, God still remembers. He remembers the foundation of a nation built on the Word. He remembers the prayers of the Saints. He remembers the plans and purposes that He has for us. He beckons for us to repent and receive His blessings. He longs for us to be restored to His presence in our country. But what will be our answer to His calling?
Arising out of the ashes, are youth, passionate for Him. Emerging from the cave are prophets of hope. Coming in from the fields, are just and gentle shepherds. And standing at the door, is our King and Savior, saying come to Me. When He shows up in our lives, the miraculous starts taking place. What is He calling you to do? Where is He calling you to go? Yahweh remembers, the purpose and the plan He created you for. 2014 will be a year where what you could not do, in HIM, you will be able to. Yes, in a world with much sadness, God is remembering and restoring us, His living sacrifices as we turn back to Him. He hasn’t forgotten the many promises He has made to us. We must not forget either. 2014 will be a year that God manifests the promises and plans He has for you. There is still great works to be done for Him. When He shows up, the miraculous begins to occur. Even in the midst destruction, Zechariah was an agent of hope. Mark my words, HE HAS NOT FORGOTTEN YOU. Remember HIM! Return to Him, your help. You were born for such a time as this, and He remembers.

Dear Partners and Friends,

If Warrior Nations has ever impacted your life in any way, please read this letter and stand with us! We need your help! Warrior Nations is believing for 100,000 lives to be changed by the Holy Spirit of Jesus Christ! We can’t do it alone!  2014 was an awesome time of revival and evangelism, with 5,710 life-changing decisions for the Lord Jesus Christ. During the 2013 West Africa World Harvest crusade, many came to the Lord and many were totally healed from injuries and illness. A man that had not walked in six months was touched by God and walked for the first time since his accident. A lady with the issue of blood that had been bleeding for 4 months dried up immediately after praying for her healing. There were so many awesome testimonies of the Holy Spirit touching lives. We have recorded many of these live services on the Warrior Nations You Tube channel.

Warrior Nations just had its 11^th year anniversary,

with over 64,110 decisions made for the Lord!

I want to share some stories with you. Chris wrote a letter to us from a prison in TX. He said, “I didn’t even realize the cycles the devil had over my life and how he deceived me, until someone in jail gave me one of your books. I read your testimony and some of the teaching. It was like a light bulb came on. I could see the cycles and now God has set me free. Thank you! Please send more books.”

Francine called our office one day and said, “You came to a rehab where I was in GA to share your testimony. I gave my life to Jesus then, but had a struggle when I got out.  I moved 2 or 3 times after I got out, but these annoying Warriors’ Word newsletters seemed to keep following me as well. One day I read a message on radical grace in the newsletter. God touched me and now I am in full time ministry. Thank you for not giving up on me.”

Philip, a teen from FL said, “I went to one of your Beyond the Darkness meetings. You were talking about the power of music, good and bad. I thought you were crazy at first, but God began to show me how I made compromises in my music that led to compromises in my life. No more half way in, for me. I’ve closed that door and can see a major difference in my life.”

A lady from TN came into one of our meetings recently. She had tried to stab two pastors and church members with a knife over the past two years in a small town called, Harriman. One of the church elders brought her to one of our meetings. When we prayed for her in the name of Jesus Christ, a spirit was broken off her life. She got up a brand new woman and testified in her right mind the next night that Jesus Christ set her free from mental torment and sleepless nights! You couldn’t even tell she was the same woman.

In 2011, Warrior Nations started a leadership fellowship to other ministries and ministers, at no charge. We have been able to help launch foreign missionaries to America from Africa, pastors and evangelist in their calls. We have met many ministers ready to give up, but are now serving God in full swing and making an awesome impact for the Kingdom! Warrior Nations has helped launch over 30 ministries and seen over 1000 ministers’ surrender to the call in 11 years. In 2007, Warrior Nations started International Harvest Crusades all over the world. We have some crazy testimonies of healings and mass salvations. We have been doing them on a shoe string budget, but God has been so faithful to maximize our efforts with the little that we have had. Over the span of 11 years, Warrior Nations has averaged one decision for Christ for every ten dollars given to this ministry. We have learned to be very faithful with very little.

God has been dealing with Warrior Nations about shifting to the next level. We are preparing for the greatest revival this world has ever known and I want to be ready! We are doing everything we know to do to prepare to go to the next level in every area. Will you go with us? We have prepared the 2014 budget and need about a 30% increase to fulfill the next years outreaches. This is not raising my wife’s or my salary at all!

“For even in Thessalonica ye sent once and again unto my necessity. Not because I desire a gift: but I desire fruit that may abound unto your account” Philippians 4:16- 17. Eleven years ago, my wife Christy and I launched Warrior Nations Intl. Ministries in October 2002. We took all of her $500 of retirement and paid for the IRS fee to become a Not-For-Profit organization recognized by our Federal government. We have been traveling and sharing this radical message of grace and holiness ever since!  We now have four kids, a small army of volunteer staff and the mission is still the same. I want to thank the Remnant Partners of Warrior Nations for standing with this ministry to preach the Gospel in these last days. We have a handful of people who have stood with us since the beginning in 2002 and we want to say thank you so much. We can’t do it without your continual prayers and monthly support. My family thanks you for all your prayers and support. Thirty-five percent of the ministry budget comes from love offerings, five percent from book sales and sixty percent of the ministry budget is from partners and people just like you that believe we are in the last days and believe in the fruit of salvations God has harvested through this ministry. We can’t do it without you.   Please continue to stand with WNIM in these last days!

If you have partnered with us, or given a one-time donation in the past, would you consider standing with this ministry again?

WNIM purposes that everything we do center on the Great Commission. I was bi-vocational until 2008 and the Holy Spirit called me to stop my secular job and give more focus to the work of the ministry. The economy dropped shortly after we went into “full time ministry” but we have never looked back. Times have been tough around our nation, but our God is not in recession or depression.  Usually outreach budgets instead of building funds are the first thing to get cut when budgets have to adjust in churches during hard times. I’ve got good news for you, Warrior Nations hasn’t slowed down due to a budget cut, nor have we changed or stopped the mission. The WNIM mission is simple.  1. Preach the grace Gospel of Jesus Christ.  2. Take a strong stand against sin. Even when it’s not popular! 3. Empower the believer in their personal walk as a Warrior of Jesus Christ.

WNIM is praying for new people to make a commitment of new monthly partnership in order to meet the monthly budget! If you have never given to Warrior Nations,

or taken a step of partnership, would you consider taking the challenge?

We are on the front lines and need your help.

If you are a pastor, or leader in a church, would you consider factoring in the evangelistic outreaches of Warrior Nations as part of your outreach budget? We will send regular updates of the details of decisions made for the Lord.

————————————————————————————————————————-

1.  Commit to PRAY for the ministry, outreaches, & the staff regularly!

2. Commit to SUPPORT the WNIM outreaches financially every month with $10, $20, $50, $100, $200, $500, $1,000 or more.  No amount is too small!

Contending For The Faith in a Fallen World

by Shawn Patrick Williams

There will come a time in every Believer’s life that we will be forced with a choice to contend for our faith.

“Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints.”

-Jude 3

Knock Out For Jesus

Jude was the brother of James and most scholars believe the brother of Jesus Christ, as well. The word “contend” means “to struggle for, to fight for.” When I was 14 years old and unsaved, I went with my youth group on a Thursday night witnessing door to door. A boy about my age answer the door and starting cursing at us.  Not knowing the ways of the Lord, I leaned over and punched him straight in the face on his doorstep. Now, I don’t believe that this was the way that Jude was teaching to contend for the faith. So I humorously say, don’t go slapping, hitting, fighting with people who don’t know the Lord. It’s not the Lord.

What was Jude talking about then? My fight for the Gospel and your fight for the Gospel might look completely different in the natural, but there will come a time, when we have to fight for our faith. Yours might be taking a stand for Jesus on your job or in your school. I took a stand once in Nigeria, Africa and was faced with being detained in a local jailhouse for interrogation where I was able to preach the Gospel to the police and prisoners.

For many of our Christian brothers and sisters in the military, there could the possibility of bring “court marshalled” if they share their faith with a person of another faith. That’s right, in the US military there are such laws in this present day.

Perhaps like the fight of Believers in Pakistan, where they are forced with the “blasphemy laws” which basically sets any Believer to be oppressed for almost any reason if Muslim neighbors, businessmen, or family become offended. Christians in Pakistan have a 50/50 chance of receiving persecution for sharing their faith with any unbeliever and being accused of breaking this law punishable by death.

A Contender Like David

My fight and your fight may not be that extreme, but you can rest assured at some point in some way, you will be forced to contend for the Gospel in some way or another. My prayer is that when  our time comes, that God will give us a Holy Ghost boldness to stand and not waver just like David before Goliath!

Its A Fixed Fight

Alexander Hamilton said, “A man who stands for nothing will fall for anything!” Remember this, if we aren’t boldly standing for Christ in our everyday life, when we are faced with this fight, will we be able to contend? Don’t wait until later, start building up your most holy faith and start contending today. If God be for us, than who can be against us? The battle is not ours to fight, anyway. God fights our battles for us, so pray for opportunities to share your faith. Look for divine moments the Holy Spirit has preordained in your life to shine His Light to the lost  and hurting world around you.  Condition yourself for the fight. Prepare yourself to stand and give an account of your hope.

Gathering the Harvest for our King,

Shawn Patrick Williams

P.S. Please keep in prayer for August 28-30, 2013. We are preaching a camp meeting style revival called “The Augusta Awakening” in Augusta, SC. We are also believing for miracles in the 3 nights of the West Africa World Harvest Crusades that we will be apart of in  September 2013. We have the ticket to get there so far, but we still need the rest of funds for this international outreach. Please contact us if you want to stand specifically with us in this West Africa World Harvest Crusade outreach. We believe that 1000’s are going to come to the Lord during this event, so please pray and stand with us.

The Power of the Cross!
You will never become a warrior for Christ, until you understand the power of the cross. My whole life, when I heard someone preach the Cross, I heard about the wonderful promise of Heaven. I also, heard of the tormenting place called Hell. One thing was for sure, I didn’t want to burn! Because I had a “Fire Insurance Faith” it didn’t last. There was no real change in my life. Once I surrendered my life to Jesus Christ, in 1998, I learned about the power of the Cross! I want to share with you about the age old, amazingly fresh, and powerfully broad power of the Cross. Let’s look at what it really means.
The power of the Cross destroys sin! John 3:15-17
Sin will take you to a literal burning Hell if the power of the Cross doesn’t destroy it through the forgiveness of your sins. If the blood doesn’t destroy it, this life is as good as it gets. But if you surrender your life to Jesus, this old world is as bad as it will ever be. Amen! If you can’t say that, if you died today, you would go to heaven, ask Jesus to be Lord today. Repent of your sins and turn from them. You’ll never be the same. The power of the Cross doesn’t just forgive your sins, but it destroys the power of that sin over your life. It doesn’t have dominion over you no more. Romans 6:14 When I read that scripture and believed it, I was set free totally from drug addiction.
The power of the Cross protects you from Satan! 1 John 3:8
When I came out of the occult, I had demons that were released through spells and talismans on me that got so angry, that they tried to bully me through death, fear, doubt, addiction and all the dirty stuff they do. Manifestations of demons started and they tried to scare me into giving up on my pursuit of Jesus. I learned how to plead the Blood of Jesus over my mind, my house, my life and everything that I knew. For 6-9 months evils spirits harassed me, but one thing was totally for sure. Every time I called the name of Jesus and spoke out the Blood, devils left in fear of God! I went through a “spiritual boot camp” and I learned, first hand, the untouchable power of the Cross! Demons can’t stay around Jesus. I encourage you to read our book “Warring with the Word”.
The power of the Cross delivers your mind and heals your body! What does the word “saved” really mean? Once I got this realization, everything changed. In John 3:17 the word “saved” in its’ Greek origin sōzō means “safe”; to save, to deliver or protect, to heal, preserve, save, do well, be (make) whole. God can heal your body! He can set you free from mental torment! The power of the Cross is the total package. It doesn’t just mean you get a free pass to Heaven. God wants you in victory now on this Earth. Jesus’ entire ministry was teaching the Apostles how to pray Heaven on Earth. I don’t understand why some people get healed instantly, and I’ve seen 100’s, or why some people never get healed and had the same people pray them same prayers. I can’t answer that, but that’s not gonna keep me from praying the power of the Cross, or from believing in the power of it. All I know is that He is able and His Word says He can. Therefore, I will pray and believe until I see it, or I see Him. Just like Shadrack, Meshack anmd Abendego.
The power of the Cross brings “the Acceptable year of the Lord.” Luke 4:18-19
This was a phrase know by the Hebrews as the year of Jubilee, or debt cancellation to the Jewish people every 50 years. This meant that Jesus brought “the year of Jubilee” to all who believed on His name, not just every 50 years. When you understand the power of giving tithes, offering and alms, God’s economy, it will break the power of lack and poverty. God doesn’t operate like the world system and He isn’t broke, in depression, or recession. The power of giving to God is a wonderful part of the atonement promises.
Jesus didn’t stay on the Cross! Acts 1:8 & 2:1-5
Jesus gave us the power of the Holy Spirit now to live out these promises. You can’t do it without the Holy Spirit. He wants His people to experience the unction of the Holy Spirit working in their lives. It’s His down payment towards eternal life. I pray today that the Lord Jesus Christ cause His Spirit to rise up on inside of you, so that you can walk in the fullness of the power of the cross, in the name of Jesus!
