May Newsletter 2023 The Great Deception

2 Thessalonians 2:3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; As we look around us, we see that the anti-Christ spirit is at work in the world. The son of perdition has not been revealed yet, but we know that there has been a great falling away from the faith. But there is hope, we need to stand firm in our faith and in the Word of God. Not only do we do we need to take heed lest we fall, we need to endure and overcome until the end in order to inherit all things. We need to warn others as well that the enemy only has a short time and wants to deceive as many as he can, that is his weapon. We are armed with the truth, and must be teaching others as well. This has been our message to others as we have been teaching and preaching seminars while in the USA. Acts 20:31 Therefore watch, and remember, that by the space of three years I ceased not to warn every one night and day with tears. Be prepared for what is coming on the earth by deepening your relationship with the Lord, and digging into the Word of God. Prepare your family and neighbors by starting a Bible study in your home, reach out to the unsaved in boldness. The Lord is depending on you to act and stand up for the truth in your community. We are out of excuses. We as Americans are more than qualified and armed with our access to the Truth in our Bibles and on our cell phones. People in Kenya and other places in the world do not have the luxury of an inexpensive Bible, or ability to study the Word online. What are you waiting for? The Lord will hold us accountable for what we knew, but did not share with others.

The Teaching of the Truth Continues in Kenya
We are so proud of our pastors and teachers in Machakos Kenya. They have sacrificed their time and lives to invest in others by teaching the Word of God. We receive weekly updates from our people on the ground there, fighting the good fight of faith. We thank God that he is raising up an army that is equipped to counteract the lies of the enemy and to deliver others from the great deception that is arising on the earth. As this 6th Bible school class nears their graduation in June, we are confident that each student is going back to their communities to continue teaching others the Word of God. We know that the Lord is pleased with his children in Kenya who have hungered and thirsted for more of Him. We were so spoiled when we were ministering to these wonderful people, because they longed to know more, and were so willing to study and work hard towards the goal of knowing the Word. America is a very difficult place to reach hearts that are hardened towards God. The work continues…….


The Lord Provides For The Needs Of The Bible School In Kenya
When we were in Kenya, the Lord miraculously provided the funds and food to support our students. Matthew 6:33, Seek ye first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all the things will be added unto you. We experienced this over and over as we made disciples, the Lord gave us everything to accomplish his will. Not only did people like you support our mission with monetary contributions, but local Kenyans were willing to give food to feed our boarders and students. It was amazing to see what poor Kenyans were giving by faith, such as fruit and vegetables, sometimes in huge quantities. This has continued, even in our absence, as our pastors are making disciples in the Life Changing Truth Bible College. President Ruto recently called for a national day of prayer for the rains to return to the famine struck areas of Kenya. PRAISE THE LORD JESUS, THE RAINS HAVE RETURNED TO THE AREA OF MIWANI WHERE OUR CHURCH AND BIBLE COLLEGE ARE LOCATED. We thank God for this president who loves the Lord, and is a man of great faith.


The Things That Belong in Your Peace
Luke 19:41-42 And when he was come near, he beheld the city, and wept over it, Saying, If thou hadst known, even thou, at least in this thy day, the things which belong unto thy peace! but now they are hid from thine eyes.
Jesus was expressing His sorrow for Jerusalem because it had rejected Him and therefore missed its opportunity for peace. You will notice that the words used here are ‘thy peace,’ as if peace was something that rightfully belongs to Jerusalem. Peace rightfully belongs to you if you trust in Jesus. The things that are coming on the earth will cause fear and panic to those who are not putting their confidence in Jesus, His peace will be hidden from them. His peace is found in his voice, we can only hear him if we are not looking at the natural circumstances around us, such as the wars, famines and pestilences. He will direct our path if we keep our eyes on Him. He will deliver us from the things to come if we are obedient to his Word, and fear not.
