REACHING THE WORLD FOR CHRIST
The Heartbeat of Horton Ministries International
Dr. David Horton
For over 40 years, this ministry has endeavored to do its part in reaching the lost worldwide. We have literally circled the globe countless times, preaching the gospel in North America, South America, Central America, Europe, Africa, India, Asia, Australia and the islands of the sea! Countless thousands have come to Christ, and only heaven will be able to give an accurate count. We give glory to God for His grace throughout the years for us to continue to go. Our most recent trip was to the South American nation of Brazil. Pastor Scarlett and I travelled over 2,000 miles by automobile, preaching 23 services in 19 locations, and ending at a huge rally hosted by the ministry of Missionary RR Soares and the International Church of the Grace of God. The event was located at Botofogo Beach in the City of Rio de Janiero with over 150,000 in attendance. The President of Brazil was at the event as well as the Mayor of Rio, and several members of the Congress and Federal judges, all rejoicing and singing praises to our God. The President declared, “Brazil belongs to Jesus!” (PICTURED TO THE LEFT)
Everywhere we went, the auditoriums were packed to full capacity, even to the extent of standing room only, with the back doors open and more people standing outside all the way to the curb. This is truly a nation in the midst of an awakening to God. Older mature people were standing right next to teenagers worshipping God with abandon. There were no special effect lighting or smoke machines, no singers with tattoos or shredded jeans and dreadlocks. Just everyday people hungry for God. Thousands and thousands of them. And the result? Hundreds of salvations, verifiable healings, and signs and wonders all wrought in the Name of Jesus. Many filled with the Holy Ghost, speaking with tongues, and no one left the building offended or afraid. I believe that Mark 16:15-20 is the mandate for the church to reach the world.
And He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature. He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned. And these signs will follow those who believe: In My name they will cast out demons; they will speak with new tongues; they will take up serpents; and if they drink anything deadly, it will by no means hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover.” So then, after the Lord had spoken to them, He was received up into heaven, and sat down at the right hand of God. And they went out and preached everywhere, the Lord working with them and confirming the word through the accompanying signs. Amen. Pastor Scarlett and I are doing all we can to fulfill our part in this Great Commission. If you are a partner with Horton Ministries, then you will receive credit for every soul saved and every body healed. As Paul stated, “not that we desire a gift, but that fruit may abound to your account” (Philippians 4:17). Vol.2

Let’s keep sending and going into all the world. Even with the loss of time we’ve experienced this year due to the global pandemic, I still believe that 2020 is going to be the most fruitful year yet, in every area, including souls saved, people healed, finances and every other area. I believe that the devil fully intended to cripple the church through the events that have recently unfolded, but that in reality he has simply awakened the sleeping giant. Let’s make sure we ARE fully awake, and not miss this great opportunity. When governments, medicine, and Wall Street fail, people of all walks of life are looking for an answer and a savior. Thank God we know who He is and we know how to introduce Him to people. This is the time to “let God arise and His enemies be scattered.” LET’S BE A PART OF THE “ARISING”! 3 | PAGE
