Dear Family,
I would like to let you in on what God has been doing in my life these past two years while attending Bethel school of supernatural ministry in Redding California. I pray the glory of God to rest upon you as you read.
A lot has gone on in the past two years and my life is so different from when I first came here. I have seen so many miracles done through my hands in church services and on the streets. The training I've received here at this school has been so practical in my life. I've learned through hands on experience, how to display the raw power of God. I had the chance to go on my first overseas missions trip to the middle east last year, which activated me in doing the same thing Jesus did when He was there 2000 years ago, which was healing and the preaching of the Kingdom. Now here in my second year of school I've been able to go on different ministry trips with leaders from the school who move in incredible power. I was able to go to Joesph, Oregon for a weekend of revival in October. Then in November I had the chance to go to Nebraska for 10 days of revival and saw miracles that I would of never dreamed possible.
The first night before the service as we ministered to a woman, we started to get words of knowledge about her being in a car accident in a brown car 6 years ago . She was amazed at how we knew that about her. She began to tell us that she has a pinched nerve in her neck which causes extreme pain throughout her arms and neck. She also had a metal plate in her neck that she could feel. So we prayed a quick prayer and ashed how she felt. Her response was “ all my pain is being sucked out of my arms”. We asked her to move her neck around. She again said “ all the pain is gone”, she couldn't do that before without extreme pain. So we asked her to check if the metal was still in her neck. She put her hand to her neck and couldn't find the metal plate anymore! God totally healed her and took out the metal plate!
I could keep going for 2 hours just about all the testimonies I saw on that trip alone. I have some posted on my Blog if you want to stay connected to what God is doing in my life. Just go to http://revivallifestyle.blogspot.com/ . Also if you want to hear more I would be more then glad to have a coffee with you or just preach at your church and you could see them first hand. That way you could start to create your own testimonies of the things God has done through you. God is all about working miracles and showing how easy it is to do them, either in the street or in the church, so we as the body can do the same thing. I'm at this school to learn how to do the works of Jesus and in turn go and teach others to do the same. My major in this school is school leadership and planting. I'm learning in this class how to go and plant a school to raise up other leaders, so they may go back to there home towns and bring revival. My heart burns for revival! I was born to see others raised up as revivalists and openly display the raw power of God in every sphere of society. I'm writing this letter because I want to give others a chance to partner with me in this vision to see revival in our home towns and have the Kingdom of God openly displayed in our neighborhoods.
This summer instead of coming home, I went to work for 3 months in Alaska to earn money for the 2010-2011 school year. That money has now run out and I still have $900.00 to pay on my school tuition plus rent, utilities and food. I'm also going on a missions trip to Mexico city, Mexico in march which is $1250.00. Last year when I went to the middle east it cost around $3000.00. Thanks to everyone who sowed into that trip and a big thanks to everyone who poured into me all last year financially. Without you, I could not be accomplishing what I am for God. You are a huge part of seeing my dreams come to pass. I'm experiencing and seeing more for the Kingdom of God now then I thought I would in 10 years. Thanks so much.
Some of the needs I've already mentioned but I want to give you a clear picture of what I'm looking at with numbers for the whole year. I have already gone through 3 months and I still have 6 more months to go. The totals for the year are December through May.

I just want to say thank you to all that have helped me financially in the past. You are planting into good soil and I know you will reap a great harvest. And for those who want to give into this vision and partner with me in seeing revival, I have a couple ways for you to do that. You can go to https://www.ibssm.org/?action=donate_search and donate it through my school site. When you donate through my schools site, you will receive a tax deduction. However, I will not be able to use that money for food,utilities, or rent. It only goes toward tuition and missions trip. If you would like to donate toward other things, send it to my address in California. My address is:
4440 dogwood lane #1, Redding CA, 96003.
I pray God visits you as you read this letter with impartation and breakthrough in signs, wonders and miracles. Let miracles be really really easy. I pray Gods manifest presence and joy to overcome you. May you become possessed by God! Amen.
Revival,
Matthew Armstrong
