In early May when Don (coin 0001) introduced me to the Whole Armor of God Challenge and gave me my coin number, 0300, I began praying that God would use this ministry along with so many others, to lead unsaved people to Jesus and to help believers stand firm while resisting attacks and temptations.
On this 2024 New Year's Day morning, in just eight months, I counted 29 states out of our 50 states that have registered coins. Over half of these United States have people who have joined the Armor of God Challenge community, Praise God!!
Also it appears that five of the seven continents in the world have people who have registerer coins !
We know there are many more people who have received coins but have not registered them.
I invite each one of you to join my wife and I as we pray for the souls of people who are not followers of Jesus here in our country as well as around the world in this new year.
We are also thanking our Heavenly Father for this ministry and praying that God would continue to bless Don and the Whole Armor of God coin challenge. 🙏🏻☝️✝️
John, I've got to update your numbers again.. This week, we have new members from Michigan and Wyoming .. also Ist shipment of Coins are headed to Uganda. - Don coin 0001
John 0300
When I received my coin and registered it I felt the Holy Spirit get excited within me. A solid tool to help spread the gospel and the love of Jesus Christ. Handing a coin to another person is telling them that they matter.
I join in your prayers John. I pray that this ministry does amazing things that we yet don't know!
To God be the Glory for great things that he has done through the leading of the Holy Spirit I am confident in this very thing that God's will done God's way will not lack God's Supply we have this treasure in Earthen vessels that the Excellency is not of us but of Him it's truly been a blessing working with the armor of God challenge
John, coin 300, I'm gonna update your number of states... from 29 to 30. This AM on January 1, 2024, Laura from Indiana wrote me an email from our website. I answered her questions, she sent me more information and and I'll be sending her coins for her and her family and some close friends. She found us via a Google search. Thank you Google!
In 2023, in 9 months, we distributed about 9,000 Armor of God Challenge Coins. The spread of these coins has been via word of mouth. The Gospel is viral! Looking forward to how God moves in 2024- Don coin 0001.
Praise the Lord! I pray that we continue to share Good News Christ with these coins.
John coin 0300, i just read your note. What a great read to start off 2024. I remember giving you and your wife your coins. And I remember explaining the idea and you requesting more coins to give to your friends.. and then you requested more for your Church.. and more for your Model T club and then more for the Waterboyz organization.. and you requested more and more! You have become a "super spreader" ( in a good way!)
When I look at the map of lower Delaware on the Armor of God Web site, I see so many "red dots" of registered coins and I know that much of this is your commitment and heart for people and helping people with their struggles and battles. There are "registered coin members" in Germany and recently Indonesia all because you took the time to encourage and challenge someone in 2023. There are so many people like you John, Men and Women and Pastors, Youth Leaders who are giving out coins and challenging others. Churches, Small Groups, Recovery Ministries, Care Programs, Retreats, All the glory goes to God and his Son Jesus our savior! It's the Holy Spirit that convicts hearts, we simply offer a coin to another to act as a conversation starter, as a bridge to the Gospel and to inform of the protection that God provides us in Ephesians 6. It is truly amazing to see how a simple piece of inexpensive metal can create a conversation that's connected to the Gospel that can touch hearts and encourage people! There is no magic in the coin... it's just a simple reminder of the Love of God and his love and care for us! God Bless you John and all the others in the US and Canada and Mexico and South America who are giving out coins and encouraging others! Looking forward to a terrific 2024! - Don coin 0001
