From Me to You: February 2025

In Luke 16, Jesus told a gripping example of eternity that I want to mention because it reallydeals with what we do here. There was a rich man and a poor man. The rich man died and went to hell. The poor man died and went to paradise. The rich man did not go to hell because he was rich, and the poor man did not go to paradise because he was poor, understand that. The poor man, his name was Lazarus, he went to paradise because he loved God and served Him. Thepoor man did not allow his poverty to keep him from God, but the rich man refused to allow his riches to bring him to God. Many who are rich think they are saved because they give to some noble cause or charitable work, but good works won’t save anyone. Being a good citizen or even belonging to a church effects no salvation. Only the acceptance of Christ and what He did at Calvary’s cross effects salvation. More than two thousand years ago, that rich man died, was buried, and opened his eyes in hell. He is still there today, and he will be there forever and forever. That is what makes hell so awful—there is no reprieve; it is forever. A year from today, ten years from today—twenty, fifty, a hundred, a thousand, a million, a billion years from today—that rich man will still be in hell, asking if someone will give him a drop of water to touch his parched tongue because, the Bible says, he is “tormented in this flame.”

 

THE PURPOSE OF SONLIFE BROADCASTING

This is the purpose and the reason for the SonLife Broadcasting Network—for us to preach the gospel and give individuals an opportunity to be saved. I thrill at reading the testimonies we receive. One in particular stays with me, written by a dear lady who said, “My husband is in heaven today because of this network.” Thank God for that. She sent us that note many years ago, but that husband of hers is still in heaven, and he will be there forever. Praise God.

 

Ladies and gentlemen, that’s what it’s all about. Jesus Christ alone can meet your need. Jesus Christ alone can solve your problem. Jesus Christ alone can make life what it ought to be. That’s why we preach the cross, because it’s the cross that is the means by which all of this is done. 

 

There have been thousands, untold thousands, who have watched SonLife Broadcasting, and they have felt the hand of the Holy Spirit move upon their hearts, drawing them to say yes to Christ, but they didn’t do it, and they died lost. If given the opportunity now, they would give anything to be saved. But there are no second opportunities or third chances in eternity—today is the day of salvation. That’s why we do what we do. That’s why we ask you for your financial help and prayerful support so that we can continue to do what God has called us to do. 

 

How I thank the Lord so very, very much for the privilege that He gives us, which is to bring the gospel to the world, whether in word or song, twenty-four hours a day. It is a privilege and an honor of which I do not have the vocabulary to properly explain my feelings. How I thank the Lord for this privilege.

 

PRAY FOR US DAILY 

I mean that! Your prayers mean an awful lot to us, simply because this ministry rides on the back of prayer. It’s our faith in Christ and what He has done for us at the cross and our prayer ministry that makes everything possible. I cannot picture a believer who doesn’t have a prayer life. If that is the case, then you’re missing out on so very, very much. 

 

Every believer should set aside a little time each day, even if it’s only fifteen minutes, and thank the Lord for what He has done for you and seek His guidance and leading as to what He wants you to do. You’ll find things in your life beginning to get better. 

 

PRAISE

Joined to that, if every moment that you think of it, you’ll start in your subconscious to praise the Lord, you’ll find that fear will leave, depression will leave, and oppression will leave because, as David said, “I will bless the Lord at all times: His praise shall continually be in my mouth” (Ps. 34:1). What a statement, and that’s how it ought to be with every one of you. That’s what I do, and it is such a blessing to me. 

 

CAMP MEETING IS COMING SOON!

Speaking of praise, Resurrection Camp Meeting is right around the corner—the dates are April 16-20—and I have a couple reasons regarding why it is that you need to be here. First, the Spirit of God is present and doing great things—that within itself is extremely important, as should be obvious. Second, the Word of God is preached without fear, favor, or compromise. Please read these words very carefully—this is the age of apostasy of the church. Consequently, there is much error in the church and the situation will not get better but worse. In the last few weeks, I have been overjoyed at the preaching that is coming out of Family Worship Center—preaching that is so desperately needed not only in America, but all over the world. You need to hear the messages that will be preached in this camp meeting and be part of what God is doing. So make your plans now to be with us and prepare to be changed by the power and the grace of God!

 

IS THE CHURCH READY?

Maybe you’re wondering, “Ready for what?” Ready for the moving of the Holy Spirit that we believe is coming—a move of God so powerful that it will sweep a phenomenal number of souls into the kingdom of God. I believe the Lord has given me that word. I also believe that this ministry, and I speak of Jimmy Swaggart Ministries, is going to play an integral part in this harvest of souls. Understand that you have been placed in the position you now occupy by the Spirit of God, and you should consider yourself a missionary. When you help us, you are helping to bring in this harvest, and nothing could be greater than that. 

 

In the Master’s service, yours,
Jimmy Swaggart
