A special message and gift to The Open Word Subscriber Family

Published: Thu, 05/21/15

Hello ,



I just wanted to pause for a moment today and say that I just stopped what I was doing and prayed for you!  I'm not making a big deal about it, I just wanted you to know that someone is lifting you up in prayer today.  I don't know what you may be going through, and I don't know what challenges you may be facing, but my friend Jesus does...and so I talked to Him about it on your behalf.  

I began The Open Word ministry a number of years back so that I could reach out to people with the love of Jesus Christ.  It occurred to me today, that there are times when we get so busy in life that we forget to stop for a few moments and pray for people who are really important to us.  If you have any specific prayer requests that you would like me to lift up on your behalf, please e-mail me directly.  I will be happy to bow my head right after I read them and pray for your requests.

If you (or someone you know) happens to be discouraged today, I have included a free collection of 7 stories in e-book PDF that Open Word readers voted to have me assemble.  There's no cost or obligation to open it up, and you can pass it along to your friends.  It's not a slick or polished presentation of stories, but I hope that they will encourage you! It's in PDF form and should open right up when clicked. 

May God richly bless you today, and you may you feel His presence as you prepare for your weekend!



Warmest Regards,





Pastor Mike / The Open Word
