BVOV Magazine 2013 - present

Good News Gazette Your Voice. Your Victory. Your Ministry. “Then [Jesus] arose and rebuked the wind and the raging of the water. And they ceased, and there was a calm.” Luke 8:24, New King James Version Your Magazine Is Impacting My Life I just want to let you know how I came to know about Kenneth Copeland Ministries. I was traveling to a rural community with a colleague. On our table, she left a copy of the Believer’s Voice of Victory magazine. I wanted to read it so I asked if I could borrow it. The words, Bible verses, testimonies and all that was written were so interesting that I asked my colleague to subscribe me. I have been receiving the BVOV magazine for almost three years now. I thank the Lord for KCM. I was brought up in a Christian home and accepted Jesus when I was a child, but I still struggled to understand the Word of God. Since I started receiving BVOV, I have seen tremendous change in my life, my husband and my children. The Bible is becoming more attractive to me. I feel I am growing stronger in my daily walk with Christ Jesus. I treasure the BVOV magazine. It has had a lot of impact in my life and in the lives of my friends and relatives. Thank you so much and may the Lord God Almighty continue to bless Kenneth Copeland Ministries. K.B. | Vanuatu Employed and Praising God! My husband was laid off for over a year and a half and when his unemployment ran out, I called KCM for prayer and agreement that our situation would turn quickly around. For a few months we had to go to nearby food pantries to help us get by, since we didn’t have enough to both pay utilities and buy food. Then out of the blue, Bob was hired for a part-time position. His boss then hired another person and cut Bob’s hours back to nothing. That boss was soon replaced and the new boss has been much more favorable toward Bob...he is now working 32-plus hours a week, and we are gradually paying off the debt we accumulated. We are grateful to our heavenly Father and to KCM. Lynn S. | California Debt Forgiven I sent in a prayer request about a piece of property in short-sale status. For a year and a half, people kept telling me it wouldn’t go through, but I stood on God’s promises and believed the debt would be resolved. The main scriptures I stood on were Deuteronomy 15:1 and Proverbs 11:8. The bank finally accepted the sale and cleared me of $165,000 in debt—completely forgiven! To God be all the glory! R.B. | Florida No More Hepatitis C! I sent prayer requests by fax for my brother Doug, in 2012 and 2013, as he was diagnosed with hepatitis C. In January 2013, a liver biopsy revealed he had stage 4 cirrhosis, so he qualified for a state funded treatment program of 48 weeks of intensive chemotherapy to treat the hepatitis. He began treatment in May, and four weeks later his blood test showed no virus and ever since then, no virus has been detected. After 11 weeks, however, his doctors discontinued treatment due to him experiencing some serious side effects. A nurse told him he might be clear of the hep C, but it was unlikely since he didn’t complete the full treatment. Doug did not accept that and kept standing on the Word as your ministry has taught him. Subsequent testing continues to confirm it and the doctors declared him cured after six months—and now, almost a year later, he still shows no sign of hep C! Praise be to God! I want to thank everyone at KCM for such wonderful care. Every time I have sent a fax, someone has called and left prayers on my voice mail. I thank God for Kenneth and Gloria and especially all the faithful prayer warriors. V.J. | Canada In the Name of Jesus! We had a lifesaving victory in Christ. I'd been listening to your messages in recent days about the authority that has been given to the Church by Christ and that we're to exercise that authority here on the earth. I heard Gloria say over and over, "Oh, no, you don't! That's not coming to my house in the Name of Jesus!" At your cabin, I heard Kenneth speak about the recent hurricane in Oklahoma and how we even have the authority to rebuke storms. Well, that word really got down inside my spirit and recently saved my husband's and my life from destruction. We were driving down the street and as we came less than a car length from an intersection the light turned yellow. We were too close to stop safely and proceeded to go through. As we did, a car opposite us decided to turn left across our path. My husband turned the car quickly to the right to avoid colliding with it, which put us right alongside another car. As my husband tried to get control of the car, something came up out of my inner man. I put my hand up toward the car that was careening toward us and said, "In the Name of Jesus! In the Name of Jesus!" Both cars immediately stopped, side by side, less than a foot apart—no one was hurt. Glory to God! Praise His Holy Name! Thank you for getting that word to me!
