One With Christ
It's my pleasure to share my testimony with you, I am Rev Barrister Sam
Obodo , the legal adviser to late Mr and Mrs Zech Joseph a Russian couple
that lived in my Country U.K for 25 years before they died in auto crash at
Totlenham court airpress way, They are good Christian, They so Dedicated to
God but they had no child till they died. Throughout their stayed in the
country, they acquired a lot of properties, house properties, etc. As their
legal adviser, before their death, they Instructed me to write their WILL.
Because they had no child, they dedicated their wealth to God. According to
the WILL, the properties have to be sold and the money will be given out to
a ministry for the work of God, Orphanages and less privileges ones. As
Their legal adviser, all the documents for the Properties were in my care.
They gave me the authority to sell the properties and give out the fund to
the Ministries for the work of God. In short, I sold all the properties
after their death, as they instructed and as matter of fact, after I sold
all their properties, I realized more than Ten million, five hundred
thousand US Dollars ($10.500,000,00), and what supposed to be the percentage
interest of my right legal fee was firstly deducted by me out of the total
amount realized from the sold properties, this was base on the initial
agreement between me and the owner of the properties before their death.
Therefore the total amount left to be invested into God's work as instructed
by the owner is Ten million, five hundred thousand US Dollars
($10.500,000,00) only. But Instead of giving the main fund out for the work
of God as instructed to me by the owner before their death. I have intention
of investing the fund in abroad for personal use. then packaged the fund and
deposited it with a security Finance Firm. I did not want the management of
the Security finance to know the content of the consignments; therefore I
registered the content of the consignments as family treasure.
Now, the security company believes that what I deposited with them was
family treasure.I had encounter with Christ when Rev. Billy Graham was
preaching on television concerning Amanas and Sapphire in Acts 5:1-11. After
hearing the word of God, I gave my life to Christ and became a born again
Christian. As a born again Christian, I started reading my bible and knowing
who is God and becaome a Preacher in a Missionary, one day the Lord opened
my eyes to Ezekiel 33: 18 and 19 where the word of God says: "When the
righteous truth from his righteousness, and committed iniquity, he shall
even die thereby. But if the wicked turn from his wickedness, and do that
which is lawful and right, he shall live thereby". From the scripture, I
discovered that the only way I could have peace in my life is to do what is
lawful and right by Giving out the fund as instructed for the work of God by
the owner before her death. I have asked God for forgiveness and I know that
God have forgiven me. But I have to do what is lawful and right in the sight
of God by giving out the fund to the chosen ministry or charity eg: for the
purpose of God's work as instructed by the owner before her death. After my
fasting and prayers, I asked God to make his choice and direct me to a
honest Christian but after my fervent prayer over it, then you were
nominated to me through divine revelation from God, so these are how I
received such a divine revelation from the Lord, how I got your contact
information, and I then decided to contact you for the fund to be used
wisely for things that will glorify the name of God. I have notified the
Security Company where I deposited the fund that I am moving the package to
abroad and the security company has since been waiting for my authority for
the consignment to leave my country and move to abroad. You should also
forward to me your telephone and fax number for easy communication and to
fax you the documents concern are in my position. Prompt response will be
highly appreciated.
Yours in Christ
Rev Barrister Sam Obodo
