Dear Partner and Friend,
I praise God for your
friendship and partnership in ministering the Gospel of Jesus Christ. You’re
helping us reach people. Together, we are planting the Word, watering hearts,
and watching God bring the increase.
God is not a God of lack; He’s your Father of Increase. He has designed you to live a life that is abundant and overflowing. His will is for you to increase in every area, spiritually, mentally, physically, financially, and relationally. Everything in God’s creation is designed to grow. Every seed produces after its kind. When His Word is planted in your heart, that same law of increase begins to work in you.
Isaiah 1:19 says, “If you are willing and obedient, you shall eat the good of the land.” That verse shows us two key principles that release God’s increase, being willing and being obedient. When you put those two together, something powerful happens. The blessing of God begins to flow freely, and you start to experience the best that this land has to offer.
I’m believing God for the best, not just the best land, buildings, and equipment to preach this Gospel, but the best people in this land. That includes you, Partner. You are part of the best that God has joined to this ministry. Together, God is calling us to reach those the world has rejected or overlooked, those some churches didn’t know what to do with. We’re digging through the dirt to find the gems, to uncover the treasure of you. God sees the value others have missed, and He has great things in store for you.
You’re not connected to this ministry by accident. You are here by divine appointment. God has a Word specifically for you, a Word that heals your heart, restores your purpose, and causes the real you to rise up in strength, take your place, and walk in dominion.
God is not withholding His best from you; He’s inviting you into it. The way you enter it is through a heart that’s willing and obedient. A willing heart is a hearing heart. You can’t obey what you haven’t heard, and you can’t hear if your heart is hardened. That’s why willingness always comes first.
Many people obey outwardly but resist inwardly. They do the right thing with the wrong attitude. But God isn’t looking for performance, He’s looking for willingness. He’s after a tender heart. When your heart is willing, you can hear Him clearly, and what you hear becomes the foundation for your miracle.
Abraham is one of the greatest examples of a willing and obedient heart. God said to him, “Get out of your country, from your kindred and from your father’s house, to a land that I will show you. I will make of you a great nation; I will bless you and make your name great; and you shall be a blessing” (Genesis 12:1–2). Abraham didn’t hesitate; he went. His willingness opened his ears to hear God, and his obedience activated the blessing. Because he trusted God, generations after him were blessed. That same principle is true for us today. When we are willing and obedient, the blessing of God flows unhindered in our lives.
Now look at Jeremiah 2:13: “My people have committed two evils: they have forsaken Me, the fountain of living waters, and have hewn for themselves cisterns, broken cisterns that can hold no water.” When we forsake the Lord and try to build our own cisterns, leaning on our own understanding or our own strength, we end up empty. Broken cisterns can’t hold the life God is trying to pour into us.
The fountain represents the life of God flowing freely from His Spirit. The broken cistern represents a heart damaged by wrong thoughts, fear, and unbelief, cracked and leaking, unable to hold what God gives. That’s why Jesus came to heal the brokenhearted. He came to repair the inner vessel so His living water can fill you again and flow freely.
When your heart is willing and humble before Him, the flow begins again. His increase starts moving through your life unhindered. Galatians 4:19 says, “My little children, for whom I labor in birth again until Christ be formed in you.” That’s what the Father is after, Christ being formed in you. Not religion. Not performance. Not striving. Christ.
Obedience isn’t something you do to earn God’s favor; it’s the overflow of a heart that’s been formed by His Word. When His Word molds your heart, obedience becomes your nature. It’s not a burden, it’s a joy.
Psalm 23 says, “Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil.” Too many believers, when they see the valley, stop walking. They sit down in the shadow and think it’s over. But the shadow isn’t the substance, it’s proof that light is still shining. Don’t stop in the valley. Don’t sit down in the shadows. Keep walking. Keep trusting. Keep obeying. If you keep moving with a willing and obedient heart, you’ll walk right through into victory.
Now look at John 2, the wedding at Cana. The wine had run out, and Mary said to Jesus, “They have no wine.”, she turned to the servants and said, “Whatever He (Jesus) says to you, do it.” That right there is the key to increase, and miracles, whatever He says to you, do it. That’s Isaiah 1:19 in action. If you are willing and obedient, you shall eat the good of the land. Whatever He says to you, do it, and when you do, the best will follow.
Partner, this is what the Lord is saying: When you are willing and obedient, you will have the best. The best in your spirit, your family, your ministry, your finances, you name it. God isn’t withholding anything from you. He’s waiting for your yes.
So, as you sow your seed this month, do it with that same willing heart. Do it in faith, expecting the Father of Increase to multiply it.
Say this with me: “Father, I’m willing and obedient. I trust You. Whatever You tell me to do, I’ll do it. I believe I receive the best You have for me, in Jesus’ name.”
That is my prayer for you this month. The Father of Increase has not forgotten you. He is working even now to bring you into His best.
With love and faith,
Pastor Rory Synoground
