NEWSLETTER OF THE MINISTRY OF THE WATCHMAN INTERNATIONAL

Summer 2006

To the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be made known by the church the manifold wisdom of God. Eph. 3:10

From the President


Dear Friends:
Greetings in the mighty name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. It has been a year since we last contacted you via newsletter. It has been sixteen years that the Ministry of the Watchman has been in existence. We firmly believe that God has given us this ministry to proclaim liberty to captives everywhere by preaching the simple message of Jesus saving love. No other message is as important as the gospel message. We are determined to keep the pace that God has set for us. We are energized by His spirit of might and power. The year 2005 was one of prayer, teaching and worship. It was also a year of construction as we have completed renovations on our Cleveland church building. Pastor Shirley Camp organized two fundraiser Car wash and Grill events, which were extremely successful, allowing us to introduce ourselves to the community and raise funds at the same time. The people dined on burgers, dogs and fries while they waited for their cars to be washed. Thanks to all the mighty men and women of valor in Cleveland who helped make this event so successful. Our conferences and healing school/miracle services only get better and better as God pours out His power to heal the sick. We want to thank Ministers David Horton, Jeremy Gall, Jeff Staples, and our own Shirley Camp for making these meetings the most powerful ones ever. Many notable miracles have been done at these meetings. The lame walk, deaf ears are unstopped, and many believers are anointed to pray for the sick. If you have never attended one of these meetings, please do. Dont let the opportunity to receive the awesome power of God pass you by. We want the Lord to confirm the word we preach with signs following, and I know you do, too, so come to one of our powerful meetings. God will meet you there and empower you to serve. Did you know we have an all day meeting monthly in Toledo, Ohio? We have had these empowerment meetings for more than ten years now. These meeting are designed to empower believers to do the works of Christ. Are you tired of sitting on a pew with little to do for God? Then you must be empowered to do the works of Jesus. These meetings are a mini retreat for the Detroit and Cleveland watchmen. If you are a worker for God, you need more than the Sunday/Wednesday routine. You need in-depth teaching and empowerment. Join us for these wonderful anointing services. You will never be the same! Lastly, pray against terrorism. As you all know, terrorists have been exposed in greater number since 9/11. We shall never forget the horror of that day for nations around the world, and especially our own. Since that time, it seems that the war on terrorism has gotten worse. Its just more exposed now. I know God wants peace between all men, but until all are willing to lay their weapons down, there will be wars and rumors of wars. This is only the tip of the iceberg, folks, so remember to fight the good fight of faith to defeat terrorism. On the back page of this newsletter there is information on how to receive prayers against terrorism. We make them free to anyone who wants them. If you havent received them yet, contact us and request your packet.

Until we meet again ~ Pastor Barb

WHAT THE SPIRIT IS SAYING TO THE CHURCH

2006: Position Yourself To Receive Whats Already Laid Up For You


Prophecy given through Barbara Williams, December 31, 2005
The Lord wants you to know that The provision for the coming year was made before the foundation of the world. Youre dealing in your life with eternal provision, says the Spirit of God. The provision that I have laid up for you this year is not one that will run dry, it is not one that will be short, it is not one that will be lacking in any way. But you must keep yourself in a spiritual condition so that I can get it to you, says the Spirit. I need to be able to get this to you, so you must keep yourself positioned to receive. Positioned to receive. Positioned to receive. 2006 is a year where its important for you to position yourself to receive what Ive already ordained for you, says the Spirit of God. And it will be a blessing to you, and it will bring glory to Me if you can remind yourself that you are no longer asking and uncertain of what I have for you, but you are merely positioning yourself to receive what I have. So let your maneuverings and let your dealings be those of positioning not to ask, but to receive. Position yourself to receive by being a loving, giving, worshipping, thankful child of God, says the Spirit. Position yourself to receive by being faithful to worship Me, and always be found in the house of the Lord when its your time to be here, says the Spirit. Position yourself to receive by always expecting good and not bad, says the Spirit. If you will expect good and not bad, then good will come to you because bad is always short-lived, but good is eternal. So expect the Eternal out of every situation, and the Eternal will come to you, says the Spirit of God. And what is for you is laid up for you. Its stored up for you with nobody but

your name on it, says the Spirit of God. Nobody can claim it for you. You must come to Me and claim it for yourself, says the Spirit, but it is certainly there. Surely as I live, says the Spirit of God, I am ordained to bless you. It is in Me to bless you. I am ordered by Myself to bless you. I have sworn to Myself that I will bless you, that I will give you provision, that I have it laid up for you, says the Spirit of God. And this is the year that good stewardship will set you far and above your peers, says the Lord. For those who are not good stewards will still flounder, they will still suffer, and they will still lie in wait and in confusion, says the Lord, But the good steward will get the reward of good stewardship. And I will say to you, Well Done! And My Well Done speaks volumes in the Spirit, says the Lord. My Well Done is my seal of approval, and its my mark of favor on you, and it will open every door that needs to be open because you are a good steward with what Ive entrusted you with, says the Spirit of God. So you will get the reward of faith, of thanksgiving, and of good stewardship, and believing in Me because you are going forth to receive the provision that is laid up for you, says the Lord. For you have an inheritance in Me, and it is a sure inheritance because I am your Father, and I take care of all of My children royally, says the Spirit of God. So no good thing will I withhold from you. So understand the keys the keys to ample provision, the keys to understanding that everything is attainable and everything is yours, and the keys to blessing in this year. Let no man say they are concerned. Let no man worry. Let no man or woman fear, says the Lord, for this day I have told you that I have it already laid up for you that provision is there, says the Spirit of the Living God. Every good work is provided for, saith the Lord. provided for. Every good work is provided for. Every good work is

PRAY FOR OUR TROOPS


TAKEN FROM THE PRAY WITH US PAGE at WWW.MINISTRYOFTHEWATCHMAN.COM

An Excerpt from a Daily Teaching,


TAKEN FROM THE DAILY TEACHING PAGE at WWW.MINISTRYOFTHEWATCHMAN.COM

Men ought always to pray, and not to faint. Luke 18:1 We continue to pray for our nation during this time of war. There are still troops fighting, there is still a threat of terror, and there are still those enemies who must be apprehended. (Although not as many as when we began! Praise the Lord!) Although we rejoice in the victories, it is vital that we pray without ceasing. We continue to pray for Gods intervention and protection for our rulers, leaders, and protective services. PLEASE JOIN US AS IN PRAYING PSALM 91 FOR OUR TROOPS He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the Lord, "He is my refuge and my fortress; My God, in Him I will trust." Surely He shall deliver you from the snare of the fowler and from the perilous pestilence. He shall cover you with His feathers, and under His wings you shall take refuge; His truth shall be your shield and buckler. You shall not be afraid of the terror by night, or of the arrow that flies by day, Nor of the pestilence that walks in darkness, nor of the destruction that lays waste at noonday. A thousand may fall at your side, and ten thousand at your right hand; but it shall not come near you. Only with your eyes shall you look, and see the reward of the wicked. Because you have made the Lord, who is my refuge, Even the Most High, your dwelling place, No evil shall befall you, Nor shall any plague come near your dwelling; For He shall give His angels charge over you, To keep you in all your ways. In their hands they shall bear you up, lest you dash your foot against a stone. You shall tread upon the lion and the cobra, the young lion and the serpent you shall trample underfoot. "Because he has set his love upon Me, therefore I will deliver him; I will set him on high, because he has known My name. He shall call upon Me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him and honor him. With long life I will satisfy him, and show him My salvation."

A teaching by Rev. Barbara Williams, president of the Ministry of the Watchman International

MONDAY

And, behold, two of them went that same day to a village called Emmaus, which was from Jerusalem about threescore furlongs. And they talked together of all these things which had happened. And it came to pass, that, while they communed together and reasoned, Jesus himself drew near, and went with them. Luke 24:13-15
These men have picked up a stranger as they are walking on the road to Emmaus. It was customary for people to meet at a crossroads and engage in conversation in order to choose traveling companions. Of course you were looking to find someone who was an agreeable traveling companion. The proverb, agree with thine adversary quickly while thou art in the way with Him, refers to the custom of not making enemies if you were traveling. You would need a friend. You never wanted to travel alone. So these two men have found a stranger with whom to share the journey. They are in agreement when the journey begins.
==================== If you are in need of healing, there is good news! Proverbs 4:20-22 SAYS: My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings. Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart. For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh.

Most Wanted
We are continuing to pray that Iraqs 55 Most Wanted be apprehended and born again. When we began these prayers, we started a checklist to monitor of our progress. According to a Readers Digest article, our Commander in Chief, Pres. George W. Bush keeps a similar list in his desk drawer in the Oval office! When one of the most wanted is is captured, he checks them off his list.

So there is life and health in God's word. Since God's word is medicine, we must take it like we would a prescription. I suggest three times a day, like you would your food. Remember, healing is the children's bread. Consider this your dose for today. Remember, read, and meditate three times a day the following: Rx: 1 John 3:8b: ~ For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil. ====================
