Subject: FROM MRS REBECCA. MAY GOD BLESS YOU.(reply)
Greetings in the most powerful name of jesus!
Hello,
I am Mrs Rebecca Williams from Nigeria, presently staying in Germany. I am
married to Mr. John Williams who worked with Nigeria embassy in Lome-Togo
for Ten years before he died in the year 2003. We were married for eleven
years without a child. He died after a brief illness that lasted for only
four days.Before his death we were both born again Christian.
Since his death I decided not to remarry or get a child outside my
matrimonial home which the Bible is against. When my late husband was alive
he deposited the sum of $9.8Million (NINE Million Eight hundred thousand
U.S.Dollars) with one security company in Europe.
Presently,this money is still with the Security Company.
Recently, my Doctor told me that I would not last for the next Eight months
due to cancer problem. The one that disturbs me most is my stroke sickness.
Having known my condition I decided to keep this fund in Europe.
I want an organization or an individual that will use this fund for
orphanages, widows,propagating the word of God and to endeavor that the
house of God is maintained.The Bible made us to understand that Blessed is
the hand that giveth. I took this decision because I don't have any child
that will inherit this money and my husband relatives are not Christians and
I don't want my husbands efforts to be used by unbelievers.
I don't want a situation where this money will be used in an ungodly way.
This is why I am taking this decision. I am not afraid of death hence I know
where I am going. I know that I am going to be in the bosom of the Lord.
Exodus 14 VS 14 says that the lord will fight my case and I shall hold my
peace. I don't need any telephone communication in this regard because of my
health hence the presence of my husband's relatives around me always. I
don't want them to know about this development. With God all things are
possible.
As soon as I receive your reply I shall inform the security company in
Europe that you are the beneficiary of the said consignment you will need to
go and claim this fund in Europe. I will also issue you an authority letter
that will prove you the present beneficiary of this fund. I want you and the
organization to always pray for me because the lord is my shepherd.
My happiness is that I lived a life of a worthy Christian.
Whoever that wants to serve the Lord must serve him in spirit and truth.
Please always be prayerful all through your life.
Any delay in your reply will give me room in sourcing another person for
this same purpose. Please assure me that you will act accordingly as I
stated herein. If you want to talk by phone, you can contact my doctor on
his Email address( browngeroge22004@hotmail.com) his name is DR. BROWN
GORGE
PLEASE REPLY ME HERE (rebeccawilliams90@myway.com)
Hoping to receive your reply and Remain blessed in the
Lord. Yours in Christ,
Mrs Rebecca Williams.
