Subject: Dearest One In Christ
Dearest One In Christ,
Thanks for your response and your readiness to do this work of God with me.I am a born again Chistian and I am also a Kingdom Minded person, It is my desire to serve the Lord faithfully and be a servant "of whom the world is worthy" according to HEBREWS 11.
Thefore, HEBREWS 11:1 says Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see. In reference to the Scripture of JAMES 2:22, 24, &26 which says Seest thou how faith wrought with his work, and by works was faith made perfect. ( Verse24) Ye seen then how that by works a man is justified, and not by faith only. ( Verse26) For as body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also. what I am doing is to propagate the work of God through you and your Ministry.
Although I am asuring you that you have nothing to be worried about, as far as I am concerned regarding this transaction, because I am doing this not by my power neither by my own decision but through divine direction / instruction from God.

(3) I will want you to write to me atleast with the few line of what you will use the money for in your Ministry, in order to be well sured that the fund which will be given to you, will be wisely used for only purpose of God's work in your Ministry.
