A Promise and a Call from God: Isaiah 54:2-4 Increase is coming, (God says so!) so enlarge your tent and add extensions to your dwelling. (Clear lots of ground for your tents! Make your tents large. Spread out! Think big!) Hold nothing back! Make the tent ropes longer and the pegs stronger. You will increase and spread out in every direction. Your sons and daughters will (take over whole nations; you’re going to resettle abandoned cities. Don’t be afraid you’re not going to be embarrassed. Don’t hold back you’re not going to come up short.) The Passion Translation and (Message Translation) Amen Lord, bring this to fruition in and through ISI and all the other ISM partners we serve together with for Your glory.

We are asking you in 2023 to set before them open doors which no person or power of darkness is able to shut. We ask this in the mighty name of Jesus, Amen!
