Dear Partner, We did it! We faced 2015 and took it by storm—accomplishing whatever The LORD directed. It’s been a good year for the gospel, and Gloria and I have you to thank for it. It’s all because of your faithfulness to follow The LORD’s direction that the uncompromised word of faith has been broadcast around this world… with boldness. As you read through this Covenant Partner Report, realize that it’s a report of what YOU have done. It’s about what you and I and this Holy Ghost army of believers have done together under God’s direction. Inside, you’ll see how every event, every phone call, every letter, every Internet post, every seed sown, is a result of our partnership. And the devil had better watch out, because there’s no stopping us now! Partner, in 2015, we taught The WORD around the world together. More people are coming to know Jesus as LORD than ever before in the history of this planet. They are new recruits who must be trained in His WORD to fight the good fight of faith. That’s our mission. And in 2016, we’re going to continue to GET IT DONE! We love you and remember…

VICTORY MOMENT
Broadcast Helps Blogger Mom Drive Political Change N
o matter your walk in life, no matter your experience, you can change anything with God leading the way. Just ask Liz Limery Joy, a stay-at-home mom turned blogger turned political campaigner. Liz, a long time Partner with Kenneth Copeland Ministries, especially enjoyed Brother Copeland’s broadcasts with David Barton, a biblical scholar and expert on America’s founding. These broadcasts were a catalyst for Liz, inspiring her to be a voice in the political process. From them she learned that children of God should be steering the nation…not the other way around. Liz approached the Times Union, the largest newspaper in her region, about writing a Christian blog with a biblical perspective. While they weren’t too keen on the idea, they allowed her to do it anyway. What surprised everyone was the large readership it drew.
And it worked. People responded and elected her candidate by a win of more than 10,000 votes. “I would go to bed every night and think, ‘I have no idea what I’m doing. What have I gotten myself into?’ And then, every morning, I would get up and say, ‘Oh God, I need Your grace today. I need Your wisdom. I need You to show me who to call, what to say, what to write. I am wholly dependent on You. Apart from You I can do nothing, but with You I can do all things.’” And God has always come through. Liz continues to write her blog and share her message through special events, church services, radio and television messages.
These broadcasts were a catalyst for Liz, inspiring her to be a voice in the political process.
One of Liz’s readers was a man running for the New York senate. A born-again Christian, he had lost in his previous attempt by just 18 votes. He asked Liz to join his campaign. Praying and seeking God’s counsel, they developed a program called “Vote the Bible.”

“We went to as many churches as we could to rally our brothers and sisters in Christ to get them to vote the Bible in the 2014 elections,” Liz recalls.
Network Launched:
Believer’s Voice of Victory Network In 1967, God gave Kenneth and Gloria Copeland a word of direction that would alter history. He said:
I am coming so soon. I want this uncompromised message of faith on every available voice.
2015
Last year, that mission extended into a new and exciting adventure: The Believer’s Voice of Victory Network. BVOVN is a stand-alone network featuring a full lineup of teachers and positive programming. In a world filled with noise, there’s now a clear choice for Christians. It doesn’t rely on advertising dollars or Nielsen ratings. Instead, it exists because of the prayers and gifts of those with like-vision, delivering the uncompromised Word of God 24/7!

At
age 36, Greg Biswell received devastating news from his doctor. Friends saw Greg as a young husband, father and associate pastor who also worked full time tending his farm. He worked hard to make ends meet and be the man his family needed. Eventually, the strain of long hours, lack of sleep and constant stress began to impact every area of his life. That’s when he noticed he was passing blood. Testing revealed tumors and, ultimately, cancer. Greg’s doctor explained he’d seen only one other patient that age with the same diagnosis—and he’d lived six months. The doctor recommended immediate surgery to remove Greg’s bladder. Greg’s wife, Racinda, was determined to save her husband—from death and surgery. “The Word of God says you are healed—not you’re gonna be or you will be, but you are healed. I told Greg, ‘From this moment on, we’re gonna say, you are healed, in the Name of Jesus!’”
At that point, their lives completely changed. As Greg began six weeks of chemotherapy, every morning he and Racinda prayed together. They listened to teaching from Kenneth Copeland, Kenneth Hagin and Keith Moore. They immersed themselves in the Word of God. At the end of Greg’s treatments, his biopsy results showed no sign of cancer. None.
Greg & Racinda used our Healing and Wellness LifeLine Kit as part of their daily studies.
“I can stand behind the pulpit now and say, ‘I know that God is a Healer,’” proclaims Greg. “And I confess God is my Healer because He has healed me!”

together in the Lord. By the end of 2015, it has grown to become 92,000 Partners strong!
All year, stories have poured in about how Partners were using the community to connect in ways they never had before. One charity, the International Humanitarian Aid and Disaster Relief Organization (IHADRO), wanted to reach out to Porterville, Calif.—a town hit by drought— and for them, KCM’s Partner Community was the answer. “The town of Porterville has been hit hard by the drought and many of its residents do not have running water in their homes due to family wells drying up,” posted Partner Brian Bussey. “But through the KCM Partner Community, we were able to connect with a local Partner church to deliver 13,440 bottles of water to the affected area in a three-hour time frame. To God be the glory!” Hope was spread as 20 volunteers from IHADRO and Word of Victory Church went door-to-door to deliver more than seven pallets of fresh drinking water. “One guy said that he was down to his last water bottles,” said Word of Victory Youth Pastor Ricardo Stephens to the Porterville Recorder. “Another family said all the water they had left was in the bathtub and they used that for cooking. This day brought tears and many smiles.”

From Serving Time to Serving Others In
Jill with her husband, Maury
“Some ladies came into the jail and shared [the gospel of] Jesus,” recalls Jill. “I remember raising my hand…and it felt like a million bricks lifted off my chest as I received Christ.” Jill began reading the Bible and became a familiar face in the prison library, which was stocked with books by Kenneth and Gloria Copeland. Jill dove into their teaching, learning about God’s plan for her life.
Kitchen at one of the Sullivans’ restaurants.
Brother Copeland’s writings reminded Jill that fear had no place in God’s plan, so she began praying for God to restore her family’s broken relationships. A few months into her prison term, the parents she had once stolen from welcomed her back with love and forgiveness, and began caring for her infant son.
Today, the Sullivans own three restaurants. Jill splits her time between the restaurants, raising three active boys and serving as a volunteer chaplain at the women’s prison where she once served time.
Upon release from prison, a kind man gave her the break she needed, and she soon began work at his restaurant. Eventually God led them to marry.
“I’m absolutely in amazement of what God has done. I never in a million years thought I could feel this whole, and this happy on the inside.”
Growing in their faith together, Jill and her husband learned about tithing and began giving regularly…and God poured blessings upon them.

Disaster Relief VICTORY MOMENT
The building may burn down, but the church is catching on fire! P
astors Bill and Beth Pettit had a lifelong dream to start their own church in Hulbert, Okla., ministering to the locals, including a large population of the Cherokee Nation. So the Pettits started small, launching Freedom Fellowship Church on rented land, holding services in a tent.
Beth recalled, “It was nothing but a smoldering mess. We got out of the car, and I just started screaming. I just couldn’t believe it.”
As longtime Partners of KCM, they knew how to believe God. When God spoke to them, saying it was time to build, they were ready.
As the Pettits and their congregation walked among the rubble, they were devastated, unsure how to rebuild. Hopelessness tried seeping in, but they refused to let it take hold. It took about three days to recover from the shock and realize they needed to let go and let God be God.
The congregation jumped in to help. Little by little, the building foundation was formed, framework was added and a roof capped off months of determination. Even though resources were slim and progress was slow, the excitement was palpable.
Taking that step along with the Pettits and their congregation was KCM’s Disaster Relief team. Thanks to faithful Partners supporting the Disaster Relief fund, KCM was able to surprise Bill and Beth with a seed check to begin the rebuild.
Then, two weeks before finishing, disaster struck—literally—in the form of a lightning storm.
“We’re standing with you,” said KCM Disaster Relief Director Steve Poteet. “We’re believing with you guys, and we believe this is just the start.... It is going to be a testimony. It’s going to be a light, and it’s going to speak to the people all over this land about what God did and it’s going to draw them closer to Him.”
The building was hit…and burned to the ground.
The Pettits have learned that God’s blessings—even in the face of disaster—are limitless, that out of the ashes, beauty will rise.

VICTORY MOMENT
Bogotá, Colombia:
Nestled at the base of the Andes Mountains in the city of Bogotá sits an unassuming building that once served as a family home—but now serves the family of God. Palabras de Fe y Vida is a dynamic ministry that began as a labor of love by Pastors José and Elizabeth Magaña. Pastor Elizabeth Magaña hosting the annual women’s conference at Rhema Colombia.
With their fledgling ministry barely off the ground, they were given a copy of From Faith to Faith, the daily devotional by Kenneth and Gloria Copeland. The discovery was transformational. They began a new daily devotional time with 30 people, using From Faith to Faith as their guide. As word spread, more people came and prayer times increased. The Word of God caught fire and spread a wave of faith through their community. Soon, José and Elizabeth traveled to the Word of Life annual conference in Miami, Fla., where they heard Kenneth Copeland preach live. Instantly, a dream was born in their hearts to distribute Kenneth Copeland Ministries’ books throughout Latin America. Returning to Colombia with dozens of books in tow and an excitement to be partnering with Kenneth and Gloria’s vision and teaching, they began gifting From Faith to Faith devotionals to their congregation and community.
“From Faith to Faith became so popular we couldn’t keep up with the demand,” says José. “Every time we traveled to the states, we would bring back more and more.” As the members of their church, Palabras de Fe y Vida, dove deeper into the teachings of faith, the church body grew to over 400 members. Their annual women’s conference grew from 50 attendees to more than 1,500. And their From Faith to Faith devotional meetings became a daily tradition, year after year. Each day, they found themselves standing with Kenneth and Gloria and all KCM Partners, believing for and receiving God’s best. The Magaña’s dream of becoming a Spanish distributor for KCM finally became a reality in 2014 as they connected with KCM’s Spanish ministries team. This year, Palabras de Fe y Vida will distribute 35 titles and between 20,000 to 30,000 books from Kenneth Copeland Ministries—including From From Faith to Faith, In Pursuit of His Presence, The Blessing of the Lord Makes Rich and God’s Master Plan for Your Life.

I have been struggling for a while in a number of areas and I have prayed and asked God to help me. One day KCM Canada was on my Facebook newsfeed—and now I look to Kenneth and Gloria’s teachings and words of encouragement to help me daily. I have started reading my Bible more and getting more into the Word and I am noticing a change in my life. It’s funny how easily one forgets how all we have to do is reach out to God and He answers us! Thank you!

I recently got engaged, and my fiancÊe and I decided to start tithing together to get a head start on activating God’s prosperity and THE BLESSING in our lives. Together, our monthly tithe was R4,632. At a wedding expo, we won our honeymoon valued at R46,000! Then, we both received a 7 percent increase in our salaries and got paid back over R10,000 from the tax man. Praise be to the GOD of THE BLESSING! Johannesburg Victory Campaign

When there is a threat of floods, storms or fires we make every effort to contact and pray with our Partners in that area. On one such occasion we were calling a Partner whose home was in the direct front of a cyclone’s path. They were feeling distressed because they weren’t able to bring their pet dog with them and they were concerned about their home. As the eye of the storm was over them, they were amazed at the timing of KCM’s call. We declared God’s protection over them and their home, and stood on Psalm 91. A few days later they called us back to say that their home was fine even though there was destruction all around them—and when they got home, their dog was well and safe in the backyard!

When I heard your message on “Being a Grower of Faith,� it lit a fire in my heart to make a decision to live by faith for the rest of my life. I applied this principle when the Lord called me to start a ministry. I took the Word and began to declare my faith. Now, after five years in ministry, God has helped me to minister in more than 65 churches and many house meetings. I now minister six days a week and God has made me a blessing to many people. Thank you for teaching me to have faith in God!

I asked for you to pray in agreement with me for a baby. You sent an encouraging letter and I stood on the scriptures: Genesis 1:28; Psalms 127-128; and Luke 1:36-37, 45. I am now six weeks pregnant and healthy. I’m full of faith for a healthy pregnancy and baby! Praise God and bless you all. Thank you so much for your prayers and teachings!

The WORD of The LORD came to me and He said,
2016
The Great Year Well, I was waiting for “Great year of…what?” I said, “Great year of what? Oh! The great year! Yes!” And later I began to meditate on that. He said, “It’s the great year for whatever you need it to be. “For you and for your Partners and your staff and for the Church and everyone else,” He said, “it’s a great year of faith. Great year. You’re going back to the covenants of God. You’re going back to the worship and praise of God. And the power to heal.” Amen!
