ROBERT’S OPEN DECLARATION!”
My position in presenting these postings is done not as a pastor, minister, or teacher of God’s words. They are brought forward as messages to be discerned by those receiving them and choosing personally how to react. Scriptural foundation for their delivery Ezekiel 33:9
Nevertheless, if thou warn the wicked of his way to turn from it; if he do not turn from his way, he shall die in his iniquity; but thou hast delivered thy soul.
It is with great love for all given to me by Yeshua that you are receiving them. Luke 10:16
[16]He that heareth you heareth me; and he that despiseth you despiseth me; and he that despiseth me despiseth him that sent me.  And all of God’s children say Amen and Amen

COMMENTARY!

Today June 15th, 2023, I was presented with a heart felt testimony about God honouring unwavering faith.

I was gently invited by a dear sister in Yeshua to visit the GiveSendGo.com funding site. She gave me these instructions on how to open the site. Once I was on their site on the right hand top corner enter the name attached to the testimony, MERCY MISSION of BUTEGE click on the magnifying glass. There will be a picture of the young man this testimony is about. You will see a number of orphans behind him.

To reach the testimony click on read more the page will load titled A MISSION of MERCY FOR THE FUTURE!

The testimony begins by introducing David Makoha as a 6 year old boy and his 9 year old brother Jon. The next detail offered is where David’s and Jon’s journey as 6 and 9 year old orphans begins as both  parents are taken from their lives via a car accident. David relates his mother’s last words to them were “look after each other”!

The reality of this testimony is brought forward when David and Jon return to their home only to find their uncle and his family occupying it and declaring they were not welcome there.

These two youngsters David 6 and Jon 9 find themselves now homeless and dealing with life’s issues. It is here I understood they were under God’s protection. Eventually, David and Jon were able to find an abandoned house where they stayed.  During this brief stay in the house, Jon became ill and succumbed to it and was laid to rest in an unmarked grave.

The depth and testing of David’s faith was just beginning as he found himself struggling to survive, but through it all kept his faith in Yeshua strong. Even when he found himself  exhausted because of having to deal with staying alive. And at this point laid down on a roadside to sleep in the open, realizing he didn’t have enough strength left to be concerned about any wild animals devouring him but kept his faith in Yeshua believing He would help.

At this point in his life, in order to find sustenance, David found his way into a church and began working for the pastor for food. This remained in place for three years, and the pastor as payment for his past work gifted David with a small thatched roof house. He was now a young man who met Catherine at a church meeting and, against her father’s wishes, moved in with David.  Then, two years later, Jordan was born. Two years after that, they delivered their second son, Robert. As a result of the difficult labour Catherine had to endure, she fell into a death threatening coma, which, after faith filled prayer on David’s part and his outreach to others, asking for prayer and standing on his faith Catherine recovered. However, this created a secondary problem a hospital bill, which David assured the hospital would be paid.

I must reset this scenario because in their society, these two young people were the poor, with a limited future. So in their culture, they were seen as dirt people having nothing, owning nothing and not having much of a future in their lives.

The last statement about how this couple was being received by the villagers is where I  was able to begin understanding the depth of David’s faith in God. As he remained in prayer, sufficient funds were donated to clear the hospital bill just before the hospital was  taking action.

The next event in David’s and Catherines lives is a powerful demonstration of just how dedicated to God David was and how powerful his love remained for him.

In this area, it appears flooding is quite common, and as a result of the most current flood, David and Catherine’s mud hut was swept away with all of their belongings. Leaving them with two youngsters, one just two and a half months old, out in the open environment to fend for themselves. During this period of distress baby Robert contracted a respiratory illness, which later was diagnosed as Sickle-Cell Anemia  Again In faith David prayed and stood fast in faith and through donations was able to rent a small hut formerly used for storage that he and family could be out of the environment.

It is here that we see God moving on David’s faith and trust that Yahewa was going to change their lives. But as well use David and his testimony to demonstrate how faith works.

It is here where all of the actions of Yahewa were to become reality in the eyes and lives of the people in this Young couples lives. Donations came in to build them a two bedroom brick house. Which was completed in two weeks so they could move from the storage hut.

Then more donations came in as the need for sustenance was there, and David, through donations, was able to purchase three acres of land to use as a garden for sustenance and future revenue.

Now, the importance of knowing how the villagers and individuals in the surrounding areas thought of David and family as Dirt people begins to reveal its true purpose.

As visual developments speak volumes, these same individuals began asking David how dirt people could now own a new brick 2 bedroom home and own three acres of land being used as a garden. David was able to answer them, as a testimony that it was God who provided all his blessings as an answer to his prayer and remaining in faith as he always believed God would provide as he prevailed all his hardships.  

Now, the people being overwhelmed and amazed, that not less than a year before, this couple were destitute; and look at where they are today. As a result, the villagers are now  approaching David to learn more about Yahewa and his SonYeshua.

The interesting part of this testimony is how David’s faith has brought many who have witnessed Yahewa answering prayer and honouring simple faith, has brought forward the need for a church to be built. And with those prayers being answered, a new church [able to serve 200] was erected  in the past three weeks. This was a combination of excited villagers volunteering to do the grunt labor and a willing contractor.

This small village of 50+ in Uganda has a standing church waiting to service 200 souls.  Many will ask why for 200. David and Catherine were blessed by her Father when he waived the dowry which allowed the church to perform their marriage  ceremony. As it is a custom tied to the church, a dowry must be paid before the ceremony can be performed.

Now with the dowry waived David and Catherine set a wedding date and invited 18 people.

A factor I desire to share here, as it has been a topic of discussion in many of my postings on how trusting in faith, and separating from dependency on the world along with patience and endurance Yahewa has brought this all about. What I want to emphasize is that there was not one appeal for money sent out to those in the world. The funding for these events has come from donors whose hearts were touched by the Lord and after prayer were able to locate David and learn how to provide funds, and followed through with their contribution. It all came about through faith and prayer.

  David knows prayer is needed for internal items like a desk for the pastor, chairs, bibles, and musical instruments and is lifting prayer to fulfill those needs. Trusting in his heart God will hear his prayers and honor them. As he has the others.

I desire to make a deep observation of what has been described for us is the revealing of a God performed miracle to demonstrate His devoted love for us right down to using an individual who was willing to endure life’s issues to display His love, dedication and strength to worship Yahewa and only [I Am]

Now, as part of this testimony, David revealed he has from his first crop been providing sustenance to some orphans. His latest prayer is for a school for the villages and surrounding area children. Prayer was lifted, and some who our lord has touched have complied with donations to begin the planning and construction stage of the school. An interesting point in all of this is that a villager has donated one and a half acres of land to be owned out right by the mission free and clear, as the site for the church,  school and eventually dorms for widows and Orphans.

What is my interest in this testimony. To share how God has answered David’s prayers and honored his undying faith as proof, you can disconnect from the world and walk in faith, and the Lord will provide accordingly.

My interest is to reach out and touch the hearts of those professing to love our Lord but failing to honor that love by reaching out as beggars to the world to support  what God has called them to shepherd.

My desire is to show them by setting their faith aside and not trusting or believing that God will honor his promises they have removed a powerful testimony from the hearts and eyes of those entrusted into their care David’s testimony has shown that God touches the hearts of those he chooses to support His work without anyone appealing to them; that in obedience will answer his call to fulfill the need placed before him through prayer and faith.

My prayer is for those who this testimony touches, will return to their faith, let go of the world and its empty promises, and endure what our Lord will present and demonstrate their love and trust that God will fufill your needs.

And once the Lord touches your hearts, be obedient and answer His call to simply be faithful and patient with Him. What comes to mind is Romans 5:2-5 KJV
By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God. [3] And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience; [4] And patience, experience; and experience, hope: [5] And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.

The need is a school, orphanage, and dorm for widows and orphans. If you are touched, go to the site and fulfill your obedience as a servant.

Robert a humble obedient servant to Yeshua and his Father in heaven Yahewa. And all of God’s children say Amen and Amen.
