Subject: I NEED YOUR URGENT REPLY
DONATION FOR THE WORK OF GOD
>From Mrs Hope Bentley
PLEASE ENDEAVOUR TO USE IT FOR THE CHILDREN OF GOD.
Compliments of the season,I am the above name person from Kenya. I am
married to Dr Johnson Idibia who worked with Kenya Embassy in South Africa
for nine years before he died in the year 2005. 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 Christians and we lived
happilly. Since his death, I decided not to re-marry or get a child outside
my matrimonial home which the Bible is really against.When my late husband
was alive he secured $15Million (Fifteen Million US. Dollars) with financial
institution in one of the european country( Belgium).
Presently, this money is still with the financial institution. Recently, my
Doctor told me that from all the test conducted on my health, I am not going
to last long, expecially, due to my cancer and stroke. But what disturbs me
most now is stroke.Having known my condition, I decided to donate this fund
to churches or Christian individual that will utilize this money the way I
am going to instruct. I want a church or individual that will use this money
to fund churches, Orphanages and Widows. Also, the propagation of the work
of God, building and maintaining the house of God through this money, is
very important.
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. I don't want my husband's hard
earned money to be misused by unbelievers, for their own selfish interest
and in an ungodly manner. I am not afraid of death hence I know where I am
going. I know that I am going to be in the bossom 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, and because of the presence of my husband's relatives around me
sometimes. I don't want them to know about this development, but I know that
With God all things are possible.
As soon as I receive your reply I shall give you the contact of the
Security-Financial institution in Belgium. I will also give you all
information regarding the deposit of this money. I will also issue you a
letter of authority that will empower you as the original- beneficiary of
this fund. I want you and your church to always pray for me because God
work in misterious ways. My happiness is that I lived a life of a worthy
Christian. Who ever 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 for a church or christian in dividual for this
same purpose.
Please assure me that you will act accordingly as I stated herein. Hoping to
hear from you soon and kindly reply me on my personal
email:hope_bntly@yahoo.com
Remain blessed in the name of the Lord.
Yours in Christ,
Mrs Hope Bentley for the work of God.
