Psalm 18:46 The LORD liveth; and blessed be my rock; and let the God of my salvation be exalted.
Eph 3:20, 21 Now unto him that is able to do EXCEEDING ABUNDANTLY ABOVE all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us, Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen. (KJV)
I would like to take just a minute to exalt the God of my salvation, the God that is able and willing to meet our every need, even when we may not know exactly what we need.

When my wife, my daughter and I followed God's call into full time evangelism, we made a decision that we would follow my Dad's example of living by faith. We decided that we would only ever ask people to pray for our safety and health as we travel, and that ALL of our personal needs- financial and otherwise- would be kept between us and God, allowing God to show Himself mighty, and that the answer to our prayer would undoubtedly come from God only! 
About one year ago, we began to pray for some kind of small travel trailer, or something to use to enable us to travel more, without the cost of hotels, and that would give us a little more personal space while being able to help more churches with less financial cost. God came through in a big way a couple of weeks ago! We have been GIVEN a 35 foot, full size motor-home, with only 103,000 miles on it! God is still the God of miracles today
I also have been given another huge opportunity with our ministry which I will explain more in a later post! WE SERVE A GREAT GOD!

2014 ministry summary

Dear Praying Friends,            
The year 2014 was a busy year and flew by at lightning speed. We started the year with what I thought was going to be a setback, but instead became what God was going to use for His glory! I had torn my left bicep completely off at the elbow, and after meeting with 3 surgeons, God led us to the 4th surgeon in Indianapolis. The bicep had to be wired back together, it had torn horizontally as well, and then reattached, and the surgeon said that he could do the surgery, but I would be in a cast for up to 8 weeks, in a brace for 12 more weeks, and then extensive therapy. God opened the door for me to give the surgeon a copy of my dad’s biography, From an Iron Lung to the Pulpit, since my dad’s disease was this doctor’s secondary study in med school. God moved, surgery went well, and after only 3 weeks in the cast, and 3 weeks in a brace, I had healed to the point of only requiring home therapy (which was great, since we were travelling to Indianapolis for each appointment). The doctor said “I am good, but this wasn’t me!” What a testimony to the greatness of God! We were able to give out many tracts, copies of dad’s book, and the Gospel to many other doctors, nurses, interns, and other patients.
In our travels last year, through our ministry and personal witness, we had the opportunity to see 48 souls trust Christ for their salvation! God also led many folks to rededicate their lives to serving Christ, and several surrendered to full time service for God! I am humbled and blessed that God would use someone like me. We serve a great God.
Thank you for your prayers for us, your support/love gifts which help enable us to accomplish God’s will for souls to be saved, people built in the faith, and ministries strengthened. God has miraculously met each and every need, physical, monetary, and spiritual.
Please continue to pray for us, our ministry, safety and health as we travel, and that God would continue to use us to point souls to Him.
Thank You and God bless,
Your servants for Christ,

Monte, Sandy, and Lilly Watts
