ear Partners in Christ,
Warm greetings in the precious name of Jesus! As we journey through these challenging times, it’s comforting to remember God’s promises. In 2 Timothy 3:2-5, we are reminded that people will become “lovers of themselves, lovers of money... having a form of godliness but denying its power.” While the world around us may seem uncertain, we can take heart! Just as Gideon in Judges 6 tore down the altars of sin and sought God first, we too are called to remove anything that might hinder our walk with Him. When we turn back to God, He promises to guide us into victory, just as He did for Gideon. Matthew 6:33 encourages us to “seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness,” knowing that everything else will follow. God is inviting us into a deeper, more intimate relationship with Him—a journey where we can walk boldly in Christ, confident in who we are as His children. A life surrendered to Jesus is a life filled with true freedom. As we repent and live under His covering, we are cleansed and made new. John 3:16 reminds us of God’s immense love, offering eternal life to all who believe in Jesus. During these times, let’s continue to stand firm, putting on the full armor of God and covering ourselves in His protection (Ephesians 6). There is power in declaring His Word daily, in speaking out our faith, and in claiming the power of the blood of Jesus over our lives. We’d love for you to stay connected with us!

Dear Partners,
We are truly living in perilous times, witnessing events no other generation has seen. While past generations faced disasters and famines of enormous proportions, we are experiencing these challenges one after another, often simultaneously, across the globe. It is imperative that we find refuge in the secret place of the Most High God, in His presence (Psalm 91). Consider the story of Noah, who warned of the coming flood. Despite his persistent warnings, the people could not imagine that water would destroy them. Yet Noah continued to prepare and follow God's instructions. Similarly, I believe God is calling us to prepare for the coming of the Lord and the rapture of the Church. I encourage you to read Psalm 91 daily over your family and your life. This chapter highlights several areas of preparation: staying in the Word of God, knowing the power of Jesus' name, understanding the power of His blood, and recognizing the angels that encamp around us. We must make the Word of God the final authority in our lives, keeping it ever before us. The name of Jesus is above all ailments, destruction, and any curse that Satan tries to bring to our doorstep. We declare His name, for we are more than conquerors through Christ. There is no other name as superior and exalted as His (Matthew 28:18-19). There is life in the blood of Jesus. Hebrews 13:20 says, “Now may the God of peace, who through the blood of the eternal covenant brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, the Great Shepherd of the sheep.” His blood grants us access to all covenant promises. We can declare the blood of Jesus over everything. Throughout the Bible, we see God keeping His promises because of the blood of Jesus. God is a covenant-keeping God, and because of the blood, we are joint heirs with Christ, having full access through our relationship with Him. Angels are actively involved in our lives at all times. Psalm 91:11-12 states, “For He shall give His angels charge over you, to keep you in all your ways. In their hands they shall bear you up, lest you dash your foot against a stone.” The angels heed the Word of God, which will not return void. Isaiah 55:11 affirms, “So shall My Word be that goes forth from My mouth; it shall not return to Me void, but it shall accomplish what I please, and it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it.” Your generous contributions to Marilyn Murray Ministries continue to leave an indelible mark on His kingdom. Thank you for being an indispensable part of this movement, making the seemingly impossible possible. Stay connected with us on FB, YT and marilynmurrayministries.com. We eagerly anticipate continuing this journey with you. Love, Marilyn Dear Partners,
In our journey of faith, many of us encounter challenging seasons. Whether it’s struggles within our homes, marriages, health, finances, or simply waiting for prayers to be answered, we can find ourselves in those hard places. Yet, in Jeremiah 32:17 (AMP), we’re reminded of a powerful truth: “Ah Lord GOD! Behold, You have made the heavens and the earth by Your great power and by Your outstretched arm! There is nothing too difficult or too wonderful for You.” So, what do we do with these challenging circumstances? We’re encouraged to take them and plant them in the fertile soil of faith. We cover them with prayer and invite the presence of God to dwell over them. It’s not always easy to surrender our burdens and trust that God will handle them, especially when our own efforts seem to only make matters worse. But Romans 8:28 reassures us: “And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.” We take our seemingly impossible situations to God, acknowledging our need to truly trust Him and believe that He can turn anything around for our good. We saturate our circumstances with His Word, praying for a turnaround and asking others to stand in agreement with us. Even if there’s no immediate change, we persist in declaring God’s promises, soaking ourselves in His truth until it becomes a living revelation within us. Like tending to a garden, we water our faith with prayer and speak life over our circumstances. Even when things appear dormant or lifeless, beneath the surface, God is at work, causing growth and bringing forth beautiful miracles. And when breakthroughs come, we recognize them as manifestations of God’s goodness and faithfulness. So, let’s continue to trust, pray, and believe, knowing that every move of God is significant. As we remain steadfast in faith, we’ll witness His transformative power turning our hard places into testimonies of His grace and provision. Your generous contributions to MMM continue to leave an indelible mark on His kingdom. Thank you for being an indispensable part of this movement, making the seemingly impossible, possible.

Believing God For The Miraculous, Marilyn Murray Ministries Dear Beloved Friends, Happy New Year! In the dawn of 2024, we declare this to be the year of “more” and the “open door,” remembering the promise in Joel 2:25: “So I will restore to you the years that the swarming locust has eaten.” As we reflect on the past year, let’s carry forward three important principles into 2024: 1. Keep the Main Thing the Main Thing: No matter the storms that may come your way, anchor your focus on the kingdom of God. As found in Matthew 6:33, “But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.” Trust that by prioritizing the kingdom, you will remain on course, and every need will be met. 2. Maintain a Heavenly Mindset: In the face of trials, have a heavenly perspective. As Philippians 4:6-7 counsels, “Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.” Protect your peace and continue to march forward. 3. Advancing is Not Optional: Regardless of the giants that may seem impossible, remember that advancing is not optional. Refuse to retreat or stand still; instead, press forward, overcoming one challenge after another. Philippians 3:14 encourages us: “I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.” Never cease advancing, increasing, and multiplying—making satan pay for everything. As our team comes together in prayer, we decree over you and your family the empowering words of Ephesians 3:14-19. May you be strengthened with inner fortitude through His Spirit, and may the love of Christ, which is endless lead your journey to completeness. Your generous contributions to MMM continue to leave an indelible mark on His kingdom. Thank you for being an indispensable part of this movement, making the seemingly impossible, possible. Stay connected with us on Facebook, YouTube, and www.marilynmurrayministries.com. We eagerly anticipate the continued journey with you. Wishing you a New Year filled with His divine blessings and joy, Love Marilyn Dear Cherished Friends,
As we joyfully enter into the Christmas season, our hearts are filled with excitement. Undoubtedly, this is the most wonderful time of the year—a time when we gather with friends and family to commemorate the birth of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. In the midst of this season, our desire is for our entire family to experience the fullness of God. Our fervent prayer is for a revival to sweep through our families, aligning with the promise in 1 John 5:14-15; “If we ask anything according to his will… He hears us.” I realize that the key to family revival begins with me.That means being the carrier of the peace of God for my family. In John 14:27: "Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid." In faith, I declare that Jesus is the Lord over our homes.Our promise is from Isaiah 54:13 NIV: "All your children will be taught by the LORD, and great will be their peace." By faith, I’m believing for an increase of love in our family circles, as described in Proverbs 18:24b, love which sticks closer than a brother. As indicated in 1 Corinthians 13 the God-kind of love never fails. I decree and declare that all my children are walking in truth and the truth is setting them free. (3 John 4:4). That we honor and esteem eachother highly as described in Ephesians 6. In this season we are declaring divine miracles in every area of your life. Socially, emotionally, physically, financially and spiritually. May these blessings be the most cherished Christmas gift any of us could ever receive. Your donations to MMM are continuing to make a lasting impact for His kingdom. Thank you once again for being an integral part of this movement, making all things possible.

Wishing you a joyous and blessed Christmas and Happy New Year, Marilyn Dear Friends, When you hear the word "alignment," you think of things being made straight, circumstances being set right, and our lives getting organized and put together. As I was reading the Word this morning, the Holy Spirit spoke to me these two words: stability and alignment. He led me to Isaiah 33:6, “Wisdom and knowledge will be the stability of your times, and the strength of salvation; The fear of the LORD is His treasure.” As I spent time with the Lord for clear direction, He continued to remind me of the importance of committing my ways to Him and acknowledging Him in all my ways. He will align my path and the direction of where He wants me to go. The Bible says in Proverbs 16:3, “Commit your works to the LORD, and your thoughts will be established.” As we are living in a world of perilous times, we are in awe of the importance of knowing God's purpose and plan for our lives. Many times it's easy for us to feel like we are too young, too old or we've missed it, but God reminds us over and over again that He has a plan and a purpose for our lives. There is no "best if used by date" when it comes to the promises of God. There is no such thing as missing it, not being qualified, or being too young or too old to fulfill the purpose for which we were created. Just ask Mary, Sarah, David, Elizabeth, and more. God specializes in using highly unlikely people to fulfill His purposes—people that others overlook, disregard, dismiss, or ignore. It brings God greater glory. You're not finished; you're not done, and it's not over. Keep pressing, keep reaching, keep going because God is worthy of every ounce of energy expended for His glory on this earth. Your lives play a crucial role in His divine plan. Your dedication and service are not in vain. Remember, as you align your work with the Lord's purposes, He will continue to guide and bless your efforts abundantly. Your donations to MMM are continuing to make a lasting impact for His kingdom. Thank you once again for being an integral part of this movement, making all things possible. Stay connected with us on FB, YT, and www.marilynmurrayministries.com. We look forward to continuing this journey with you. Wishing all of you and your families a Happy Thanksgiving and a joyous time as we look forward to our upcoming Christmas and New Years. Blessings to you all. Marilyn Hello Dear Friends,
Have you ever felt like life's challenges are piling up, making you feel overwhelmed and discouraged? I'm pretty sure we've all been there, facing things that seem too much to handle. Anxiety and worry can try to consume us. The power of Jesus in our lives helps us to conquer fear, guilt, insecurity, and worry. God’s grace gives us his incredible strength. His force is made up of peace, confidence, love, and courage, and there are so many more attributes we can have from our relationship with Jesus. I will never forget when our son was 3 months old and had been sick with the croup. We had been up for 3 days and nights with our baby boy. All of a sudden there was a knock on the door and it was my husband's parents. They immediately came in and took our son and began to walk and pray with our baby and then sent us to bed so we could sleep. We drifted off for a couple of hours. When we awoke we found our baby completely healed and sleeping soundly. What a relief it was to not only have parents that cared but to see the supernatural power of God heal our son's body and restore him to complete health. What a testament of God’s peace and grace. In Philippians 4:13 reminds us that we can do all things through Christ who strengthens us. Confessing God's word is so vital and powerful; it helps us to command fear to be under our feet. His perfect love casts out all fear (2 Timothy 1:7). God will not give you more than you can handle. (1 Corinthians 10:13). And let's not forget Romans 8:28—God can turn things around for our good when we love Him and walk with Him. Know this dear one, that as we walk hand in hand with God, He will honor us and shower us with His favor. In every step we take, in every corner of our lives, His goodness and grace will prevail, as glory is given to Him. He is faithful, continually pouring out His love into every area of our lives. God’s key to living free of anxiety and worry is to walk in His peace and grace. It’s hard to have peace if we don’t understand His grace. God’s grace is His unmerited favor. This is why Paul continued to say grace and peace be multiplied because he didn’t want the church to be full of fear and anxiety. We are so grateful for your continued financial support that has made a tremendous impact on our mission here at MMM. Your kindness and generosity have enabled us to minister both locally and globally in multiple avenues that we would otherwise not be able to do without your help. You are part of something truly meaningful and life-changing here by investing in the kingdom of God. Thank you once again for being an integral part of this movement, making all things possible. Stay connected with us on FB, YT, and www.marilynmurrayministries.com. We look forward to continuing this journey with you. Blessings to you all. Marilyn |
