PLEASE KINDLY NOTE THAT THE HOLY SPIRIT IS DOING A NEW THING IN 2012 SAYING "NEW WINE FOR NEW WINESKINS" AMEN. THE HOLY SPIRIT HAS ASKED US TO LAY DOWN M300 MINISTRIES AND ALL OF THE WORK, OF STRIVING AND SWEATING FROM OUR BROW AS HE IS TAKING THIS NAKED KERNEL THAT IS LAID DOWN IN OBEDIENCE DYING TO SELF THAT THE LORD MIGHT DO A NEW THING.
BEGINNING IN JANUARY 2012 AFTER 4 YEARS OF STRIVING WE WILL NOT BE FREQUENTLY UPDATING THIS REPORT PAGE.
1 Corinthians 15: 36-38 36You foolish man! Every time you plant seed, you sow something that does not come to life [germinating, springing up, and growing] unless it dies first.37Nor is the seed you sow then the body which it is going to have [later], but it is a naked kernel, perhaps of wheat or some of the rest of the grains. 38But God gives to it the body that He plans and sees fit, and to each kind of seed a body of its own.
We are excited that the Holy Spirit is taking our offering, our sacrifice as a "naked kernel" and as it dies to itself He will raise up a new body that He plans and sees fit. Thank you Lord for Yeshua Full Measure Ministry that you are founding, establishing and raising up. Hallelujah!
Wayne has been blessed to attend the 2009 Spring Chapel Series at Truett-McConnell and after a time of reflective, prayerful consideration, felt God's leading to commit to this essential mission trip. The opportunity to sit under the teaching of Dr. Emir Caner in A Practicum in World Religions (Buddhism & Islam) as well as a Practicum in International Evangelism with a focus on Islam and Buddhism was in harmony with The Valiant Warrior Fund initiative at M300 Ministries. Dr. Canner who was raised as a Sunni Muslim and subsequently became a devout Christian, at great cost, will lead not only in teaching about how to reach out to Muslims with the saving grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, but will also lead participants into Islamic Mosques and Buddhist Temples where the Gospel will be shared.
God has given to Wayne Gaines a calling in M300 Ministries. Part of that calling is to serve as "one of the cornerstones", down in the trenches, in the dirt finding ways to share the Gospel message with those who believe in Islam. God has led the establishment of The Valiant Warrior Fund where foreign born and foreign trained missionaries are located, trained, deployed and supported into Islamic countries. Building on Wayne's foundational experience as a missionary to Latin America, God has inspired the Valiant Warrior Fund which interestingly enough supports mostly Latin Americans and Mexicans who are trained in a foreign country, in a 3 year program including training on Arabic languages, cultural training and Bible. These are men who at the risk of their own blood are led to serve and reach out with the Gospel in some of the hardest to reach people groups and places on Earth.
Your prayers are requested for this mission trip, the resources needed for it and for the growth of ministry relationships, as God leads.
Notes:
At their local church Wayne serves on The Missions Development Team, the praise ministry, as well as the prayer ministry. Wayne is 100% faith based, in a unique and exciting calling leading him to establish M300 Ministries. M300 Ministries and Wayne depend 100% upon the giving of God's people to enable him in ministry. Consider partnering with Wayne and M300 Ministries.
