Dear Friends!

Love and greetings to all of you from Jill, Linda, and Dwana of Master Potter Ministries here in Kansas City! In the midst of our intense schedules and ministry trips, we sometimes make lists of the things God has done for us and we stand amazed! Our prayers are full of thankfulness to Jesus for who He is and what He has done for us! You are part of our family and we treasure our God-given friendships with you. It is our prayer that you will have profound encounters to deepen your love affair with Jesus in 1999!

The Work of His Hands in 1998

Street Evangelism with Blood ‘N Fire, an Inner City Ministry in Atlanta

Radical street music resounded through the neighborhood of Simpson and Ashby, one of the roughest spots in Atlanta, as the Blood ‘N Fire Band worshipped the Lord. It seemed very natural for Jill as she ministered to the druggies, alcoholics, prostitutes, and the homeless. This was part of an outreach that Blood ‘N Fire does every Saturday night, which also included a fantastic meal at the end of the night. That is probably the only meal some of them had all day!

Jill had Melody (Green) Sievright share her testimony about the death of her husband, Keith Green, and their two children in a tragic airplane crash and how she worked out her pain, loss, and grief with the help of Jesus. Jill also shared and opened it up for ministry and many responded. People were weeping, a few were experiencing radical deliverance, and many were being touched by Jesus. It was a night to remember!

Women’s Conference in Toledo, Ohio

One of our greatest joys in ministry is watching Holy Spirit impact people. Waves of laughter hit the room and ladies were on the floor and in between rows and chairs just losing it! Laughter is always a set up for open-heart surgery and sure enough, it happened. Jill was ministering to the ladies whose first-born child was under attack. To our shock and amazement, over half of the room was up in the front for ministry!

As Jill began to speak out words of knowledge about what was coming against their first-born and breaking things off the women, the place erupted like a volcano! Ladies were letting out agonizing cries, groaning, screaming, crying hard, falling down, shaking, weeping in each other’s arms, and in deep places with God. There was a sea of bodies on the floor as the Lord did a deep work in their hearts and encouraged them.

Ministry to Young Adult Missionaries at Dr. Cho’s Prayer Mountain

This was an exciting and surprising privilege for us! We wanted to go to Prayer Mountain while we were in Korea and the Lord gave us even more than we were asking for by being asked to minister there! You could sense the presence of the Lord and feel the prayer on the land.

We ministered to a crowded room of young adults who were being sent out as missionaries to many nations of the earth. When Jill asked Holy Spirit to come, the intensity of crying out seemed unending. Their zeal and utter abandonment to Jesus was outstanding to us. Then Jill released a heart for the lost on the group and the intercession was deafening. This continued for almost an hour! Young people were kneeling face down, crying out, shaking powerfully, weeping in each other’s arms, in trance-like states, and laid out on the floor all over the room. God pierced their hearts for souls and it was a wonderful commissioning time for them to go to the nations.

Rendezvous with Holy Spirit at the Young Dong Church in Seoul, Korea

During ministry times one wave of "fire" after another would envelop almost the entire room of a 1000 people, including small children, and they were laid out on the floor. At other times it looked like a strong wind had swept across a wheat field as God took down whole sections of the room sovereignly. There were deafening roars, radical shakings, weeping, jumping up and down, laughing, prophetic gesturing, "running" feet as if on "fire," trembling lips, people doing forward bends as if drilling for oil so to speak, and at other times the heavy weight of God caused many to be on their faces weeping and crying out to Jesus. People left the meeting deep in thought with a greater love and passion for Jesus fire-branded in their spirit.

Cindy Jacobs and Jill Ministered Together

What a joy it was for Jill to reconnect with Cindy Jacobs, a friend from years ago, at Metro Christian Fellowship’s "Women and the Prophetic III Conference" in Kansas City. Right before Jill ministered, a mother had shared publicly about healing and restoration the Lord was doing in her life. She also told of the divine strategies the Lord had given her to pray for her daughter’s return to Jesus.

Her daughter testified about her sovereign encounter with the Lord that brought her back to Jesus. Jill was dovetailing this prophetically with Queen Esther’s time of cleansing and the prophetic strategies and timing of her divine appointments with the King. The woman later shared that Jill’s message gave her such revelation that she realized, for the first time in her entire life, what her purpose and destiny was in God.

Cindy Jacobs also prophesied to Jill publicly that she was "pregnant" with books, books, books! Cindy also spoke of Jill going to different third world nations. Both of these things are happening as we speak!!

Brisbane Australia AOG Church Pioneered Renewal

We ministered in a large Assembly of God governmental church that spear-headed the renewal movement in Australia. Holy Spirit ambushed the most unsuspecting woman on their staff with a visitation – their lovely accountant. Jill gave the woman and her husband a prophetic word accompanied by "fire." Both of them had been seeking a much deeper love affair with Jesus and were desperate for a breakthrough for more of the radical things of Holy Spirit. When Jill interviewed them the next morning at the pastors’ and leaders’ meeting, she was gripped with agonizing intercession. Then the "fire" hit the rest of the room and people were crying out, falling sovereignly all over the place, weeping, and some were "out cold" on the floor for the remainder of the meeting. The heavy brooding of Holy Spirit blanketed the room as people met with Jesus.

Point to Ponder: "My child, I want your life to be as beautiful as it was in the mind of God when He first thought of you."

Missions: A New Arm of Master Potter Ministry for 1999 - from Jill

I want to personally share and be vulnerable with you about some exciting and new directions the Lord has put on my heart. For years I have been asking the Lord about going to 3rd world nations and ministering to the poorest of the earth. The cry of my heart has been, "Lord, break my heart with Your heart! Completely destroy me and ruin me with Your compassion for souls and those broken in body and spirit. Lord, I want to see blind eyes opened, the lame walking and prisoners set free."

Over the last year I have had opportunities to minister to the poor in the inner cities in America, including David VanCronkhite from Blood N’ Fire in Atlanta, the Foundry in Nashville, and the Revival Center in the East Village of New York City. I have also been able to connect with other people who minister to the poor in other nations, including Jackie Pullinger from Hong Kong, Sophal Ung from Cambodia, and Pastor Jose Ortega who ministers in Honduras.

Over the last 20 years I have done, and will continue to do, conferences in America and other developed countries. However, we want to develop a new arm of Master Potter Ministries which will enable us to go two or three times a year to 3rd world nations.

To do this, we will need extra finances to fully support these mission trips: the basic expenses of round trip air fare, food and lodging. We also have a desire to be able to financially sow into the churches and leaders that we minister to i.e. orphanages, training schools, and medical supplies. Going on these mission trips means I will be unable to speak at conferences, which gives us offerings to maintain the ministry back home, i.e. office costs, staff salaries etc.

All of this adds a whole new dimension to being sent out. Each nation and situation will be very different and we are asking the Lord for divine appointments and open doors.

India: A Prophetic Invitation

I recently had a dream in which I was handed a starving baby girl that nobody seemed to want but I said that I did. The unwanted infant, who was from India, was severely malnourished and covered with slime and feces. I bathed her, put her in clean clothes and wrapped her in a blanket. Immediately I wanted to feed the baby, and then it dawned on me that because I had not birthed the child, I didn’t have any milk. The Lord then told me that He was going to teach me how to feed the infant. He always said that I would have an international family of children and I feel India is one of them.

Prophetically, I feel that this baby is a picture of a new church the Lord is birthing in Bangalore, India. Our home church, Metro Christian Fellowship in Kansas City, is acting as a mid-wife by bringing, finances, prayer and other resources. I have been invited to go to India with a team of 20 leaders from MCF to be present at the dedication of the church. The trip will also include 3 prophetic conferences in Bombay, Magpur and Madras.

The story of how MCF became involved with this building project is in itself an exciting prophetic journey. Don Steadman, a MCF leader who is working with the poor, had a divine appointment with 70 year old Sister Sesharatnamma ( known as "Amma") in Banglore. Her life, as described in an exciting book called A Pathway to Heaven, is one of a modern day healing and miracle ministry in southern India. Her stories are similar to the book of Acts! The provision of funds from MCF to build a church and Bible school are an answer to the cries of Amma’s heart for the last 40 years.

To touch the poor is to touch the heart of the Lord. Ecclesiastes says there is a time to sow and time to reap. India is the first opportunity that Master Potter Ministries has to SOW into a 3rd world nation. We also have been asked to go to Honduras and Cambodia, but we do not want to go ahead of the Lord’s timing. I have, however, felt a "Yes" from the Lord to go to India, and I am trusting Him for the finances.

Please consider whether you would like to support us on this mission to India or future trips. The India trip will cost about $3,000 and that is not including the monthly needs we have to run the office while I’m gone.

Will you sow into our ministry as we sow into 3rd world nations?

Progress Report on our Book, The Price Behind the Anointing

As many of you know, we cleared the months of September and October to work on the book. It was a very productive time and we are heading into the home stretch! Of the 14 chapters, 10 are done now. The original manuscript has undergone "major surgery" and the contents have far more depth, revelation, and anointing. Holy Spirit has downloaded Jill with such striking pictures and concepts while she has been typing what she sees that as she has read things to us, I have wept. Jill thinks two more months of writing and editing should complete the book and then we’ll send it to the publisher. Please pray about helping us financially on this important project!

New Tapes Are Available!!

"Esther: Extending the Golden Scepter"

Queen Esther was strategically placed in the courts of the King, amidst the demonic influence of a Hitler-type Haman who wanted to destroy the Jews. Learn how Esther, a War Queen, became a Holy Spirit strategist instead of a militant feminist, experiencing the favor of God and man in the palace, learning Holy Spirit etiquette, protocol, and diplomacy within the system, getting keys as an intercessor, and changing the course of her Jewish race through her obedience against life-threatening odds. Is there a "Haman" that wants to destroy you and kill your family seed too? You will gain valuable keys for the spheres of influence God has given you for "such a time as this." ($5.00 plus shipping and handling)

Please make checks payable to Master Potter for a tax-deductible receipt
