Dear Partner,

       As I write this letter today, I know many of you may be feeling discouraged. Questions about our future as a nation, concerns over terrorism, the decline of morality in America, government scandals, and the uncertainty of our economy can weigh heavily on anyone’s mind.

       But I have good news for you, encouraging news. God is in control. He knows all about your struggles. He knows the burdens you carry, and the concerns of your heart. And, He cares for you. 

       Consider these words: “See I am coming soon, and my reward is with me, to repay all according to their deeds” (Revelation 22:12). This is one of the greatest reasons to be encouraged. Jesus is coming again. He is coming soon. And, when He comes, He will bring a reward to repay you for all you have done.

This is part of the reason I am writing to you today. I want you to have an idea of “your deeds” for the kingdom of God.
Please read the CBN Mid-Year Report and see the ministry you have made possible because of your partnership with CBN. 

       Thank you for the millions of lives you have changed forever through your generous gifts and prayers. I am so grateful for your partnership. And I know beyond all doubt that God will reward you for your faithfulness. Consider the promise from Hebrews 6:10, “For God is not unfair. He will not forget how hard you have worked for him and how you have shown your love to him by caring for others.”

We promised you reasons you can be encouraged today.

       These verses will speak against discouragement and remind you of who you are in God’s eyes—His beloved and righteous child. Our heavenly Father promises to go before you, to be with you, to defeat your enemies, to give you your heart’s desire, to never forsake you, and to return from heaven for you.

       In fact, He commands us not to be afraid or discouraged! If we will get our minds focused on His Word, we will find an answer to our fears and discouragement.

       Please read and meditate on these Scriptures. Pray them aloud and ask God to remove any unbelief from your heart and mind. Stand on the Word of God. Claim the Bible’s promises as your own. God will reward your faith—you can be sure of it.

       Here at CBN we care deeply for our wonderful partners. Our commitment is to prepare you for the coming of Jesus Christ. We are here to pray for you, to bring you Christian programs that will build your faith, and to provide you with materials that will enable you to grow in the Lord.

       I hope you enjoy reading all that you are making possible throughout the world. If it weren’t for you, millions would be without water, food, hope, and most of all, the Gospel.

       Millions more need to know our Savior. I am asking you to dedicate yourself to the task of reaching the lost for Jesus Christ. The harvest is all around us—but the laborers are few. Please ask God what He would have you give to the work of His kingdom.

       Thank you for demonstrating your love for God by loving those who desperately need our help. May God crown your life with His abundant favor, and may the joy of the Lord and His encouragement fill your days. God bless you.

Yours in Christ,
Pat Robertson
