Subject: GODS WORK.
Beloved in Christ,
It is a priviledge to hear from God and it gives me joy to relate my
testimony
to you haven recieved instruction from God through divine revelation.
I was a Moslem and a retired military top officer in Nigerian Army that
served
under the past military regime. I was the financial secretary
to the Armed Force Ruling Council (AFRC). With my position as a financial
secretary, I was able to divert up to $45,000,000.00 (Forty Five million
U.S Dollars, into my personal Bank Account, hoping to invest the money when
I m retired.
Immediately I got retired, I was converted from Moslem to Christian when
I was preached the words of God through my cousin Pastor Paul Osakwe.
I then gave my life to Christ and became a born again Christain.
Since I gave my life to Christ, I had no rest of mind. Some times I think
of the souls I killed when I was a soldier and the dubious ways I diverted
my country?s money into my Personal Bank Account. I then decided to seek
the face of God for forgiveness and after fasting and prayer through
Divine Revelation, the Almighty God revealed to me that the only way I could
have rest of mind is when I used all my money to do the work
of God. I immediately disclosed my revelation to my Pastor and he was happy
with me.
I have been thinking of the particular thing to do for my God before this
present civilian president of my country set up a panel (Honourable
Oputa Panel) to probe the Bank Account of the past Military officers like
me. Instead of loosing this money to my government, I quickly withdrew
my money out of my Account and deposited the money in a finance and security
company for safety.
My Pastor has adviced me to sneak out of the country with the money to sow
it into a ministries abroad. I have decided to sow this money into your
ministry.
I am making arrangement to come over to your country but you need to receive
this money from the finance and security company in cash before I come over.
The cash has been packaged by the security company in consignments and ready
for shipment but the security company requires the address of the
receiver. Please send to me your names, address and your telefax number
where
I can fax the Airway Bill to you to claim the consignment over
there.my alternative email.address is (godswork80@voila.fr)
I will be coming over to your ministry with my family for thanksgiving as
soon as I sent out this money to you. Please act fast because I dont
want the panel to know that I want to leave the country, they might suspect
my intention to leave now that the probe is going on.
I look forward to your response
God bless you.
Deacon Emmanuel Osakwe
