Hi everybody. This post is a personal notice and request.
Since September of 2012, I've been living with Aaron Hermann in the family home in Pittsburgh. His Dad has been my benefactor, and this situation has been the Lord's kind provision for me. The time has come for me to move on. Nothing has changed in the relationship between Aaron and myself, we're still very committed partners in the work of The Open Scroll. It's for the sake of his Dad, who has shouldered the burden of support for far longer than any of us expected. He has been exceeding generous in accomodating me, and with retirement and relocation on his mind I'm really looking forward to easing his buden.
I find myself in a situation like back in 2012, when my savings had very nearly run out and I had no idea where I would go after leaving the apartment I had been leasing. As before, the time has come to relocate and with available funds my options are few. Even if I sell my car to raise living expenses, without more help it is obvious that I'll be out on the street before long. As to what provision the Lord intends for me with regard to housing, I really don't know. For the 4th time since moving to Pittsburgh, I've given serious consideration to becoming a wage earner again, which would simplify the matter, but the Lord has directed me to be content with ministering as I have, and to be encouraged with faith in that, as the need is changing, that He will provide in this season as before.
When I shared about my need back in April, I was blessed to see a substantial increase in the number of and level of donations in support of this ministry. My appeal was met with such a wonderfully encouraging response. At that time, I updated a study which addresses the key biblical principles touching on the subject of provision for the Lord's ministers: Entering into the Freedom of Giving and Receiving
Thanks so much to every one of you who prays for or supports this work in whatever way you do. The Lord sees and does not forget, who greatly rewards what is done in loving obedience for His sake.
So, here's my appeal. Please join Aaron and I in prayer about finding the Lord's provision, first and foremost. If you are feeling led by the Lord to sponsor the work of The Open Scroll and help us in this time of need, I invite you to do so as the Lord may lead. I'm quite willing to relocate, if housing is offered elsewhere. I have a car, and furnishings for a room, and don't have need for very much additional storage space.
Regardless of what the outcome is going to be for me, in this weird season pending the time reset, it has been a huge honor and privilege for me, and Aaron with me, to be able to serve you. God is so good to us!
Blessings in Y'shua!
Bob
Hi Bob, at 1st my heart sank at the word of you moving. I've been riding a razors edge for 10 years now. My wife has not been well mentally. It's taken me that long time to learn how to deal with it. She quit her business to go crazy full time. Right now I'm working on starting a new business. My painting and remodeling work is wearing me out while battling my wife's demons. Somehow I've managed to keep the main bills paid. Sad, I should easily be making twice the cash selling and installing windows. She fights me over that. Too crazy to explain. The Holy Spirit is leading me, I know It's leading You. When I talk to You and Aron I can feel "It". When I get my next business going I will be in a very different position. God Bless , I will continue to pray for You Brother.
ReplyDeleteThanks Craig. Your concern is noted and deeply appreciated. Your prayers also mean so much to us! We pray for you for patient endurance and encouragement in the struggle for your wife. Fight the good fight with strong hope, brother, as all things done are fully in the sight of the One who rewards genuine love.
DeletePs, this new business is from thinking out side the box. My flesh is in the box, but my mind is out/free.
ReplyDelete12/7, heads up. Got a bad feeling about big false flag. Just a feeling.
ReplyDeletehttp://mobile.reuters.com/article/newsOne/idUSKBN0TQ03V20151207 , opec left the tap on. Ref "I pet goat" videos. Rev. 6/6, let the oil/black anointing flow, let the wine flow too/party up , the west is drunk on the Blood of The Saints. Ole Dollar/$$/scam/whore etc is riding high.
ReplyDeleteJack/nickname/NN/28,82, for John. St. John ? Like knights of St. John ? Opposite of Yeshua? Pump jacks and jack out of the box jumping diving off a cliff/swan song records. Union Jack/dbl cross. Jack be nimble, jack be quick, . h r puffin stuff had a Jack with magik flute. Jack the giant killer. Etc
ReplyDeleteLike Craig noted, we're also running on fumes, and in a somewhat benefactor situation like yourself. But in a way like you noted, the Lord has led that the brook is running dry for a reason. Elijah's faith was tested and strengthened at the same time, right before major changes. God removed the feathers from the Hebrews' nest right before the Exodus. Keep doing what God wants you to focus on, do what you can do, and leave the rest to His provision. I believe we are very close to the finish line, and that many temporal concerns will be sloughed off as the hour gets later. May God open doors of provision and opportunity. Maranatha.
ReplyDeleteThanks Daniel. The Lord knows what He wants. And, He knows how to get it. And, He is GOOD!
DeleteHa! Me too guys. I was so thoroughly convinced it was curtains for this age that I walked away from my job of 17 years. That was back in June of 2012. I havnt worked a day since, just watching and waiting, living on my savings. 3 1/2 years later and my savings is nearly gone. Record breaking precipitation this year has revealed that my roof is shot and now I dont have the money to fix it. Cant sell the house with a leaking roof. Don't know what I will do. Seems like a shaking is taking place. Looking forward to seeing what the Lord has in store for us. Good word Daniel.
DeleteJohn, check Craig's comment from 12:17. Email me to get his phone #.
DeletePope opens the holy door /portal for Xmas . http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-35037740 . Jubilee year! Free indulgences /get out of hell free chits. Cross keys over the door.
ReplyDeleteSeems like Russia is moving ships out of Black Sea while they can. Moving other assets(helos, s400s anti air, subs etc) helos going to Armenia base. Mt Arat is in eastern turkey close to boarder. It's where Iran and turkey meet. http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-35041649
ReplyDeleteShe's still being cool. Any way one way or the other we can find a roof. Tell John to go to YouTube for roof repair advice. Or call me.
ReplyDeleteCraig, We tried the phone number from your other comment, twice - no service on that number, so could you give it to me again?
Delete1300 readers on 60 hour marathon/26 mile/battle east X west collide, reading war and peace live on Internet. Story of Napoleon ravaging Europa . http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-35037327 , that was another east west collision. Or 3way crash.
ReplyDeleteRussia launches Kalibr cruise missiles from sub in med. these are also called klub(shipping container sys.s) Mach 2.9, the sizzler. That was when they launched from Caspian Sea over flying Iraq and turkey. They may have shot 2 down but I think USA papers lied. USA helpless to stop these new toys. They're electronic warfare or jamming tech is top notch according to rumor control.https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/3M-54_Klub
ReplyDeletePersistant roof leaks cause black mold (check what KJV says about mold,) heat in attic will kill it if you dry it out. Lingers in winter. Do not breath, or expose children or old people either. Anyway, are smart toys the rage for Xmas? Smart/enlightened, initiated. Connect children to what's on the other side of net/pied piper/magik flute! Yeshua said suffer the little/innocent Children to Him. Not the beast moms and dads!! http://www.bendbulletin.com/business/3774686-151/hello-hackable-barbie#
ReplyDeleteBbc says they found a picture under Leonardo's Mona /Madonna Lisa , using reflective /mirror/moon/, light tech. In honor of Festival of Lights/shamash the 9th light. When circle is squared with 2nd circle added to inside the square we get the speed of light. If we're good at math. I'm not. http://www.bbc.com/news/entertainment-arts-35031997 Reminds me of vitruvian man, the othe picture is of the woman sitting and looking off at an angle, and reminds me of Queen Elizabeth's jubilee portrait . She looks off for protection from what's in the magik mirror/Isis. Making some very bold claims in regards as to the level of contact they have with other side. Is the door/portal /holy door open? Are they here? Well we'll soon find out!
ReplyDeleteWhen we go to google images of QE2's diamond/star of moleck, jubilee portraits . Look at the one in Westminster Abby. And the one with the mirror and blue sash/chevron/sex magik/etc. at her coronation crowning. 1st one on TV, experimental 3d tech/cube=6 sides, space/3d. Color tech too/shamash/chonaka, where's my stupid draddle sholmo? They flew films to Canada while ceremony was proceeding, on jets racing the sun/time manipulation. Space time. Time travel. Now I have to check out mosaic in Westminster where she stood at crowning! I remember an article on the uncovering of this old talisman.
ReplyDeleteHere's a site with pictures of cosmati pavement , at th high alter. Great place to draw a magik circle around center square. Repeat around 2nd square, ratio of the difference is speed of lights. That circle would be in the center of cross of building I think. http://www.westminster-abbey.org/conservation/gallery
ReplyDeleteOne more link to cosmati pavement/cut stones/like the blood diamond/ cut stones are idols?? In my humble opinion it looks like They can channle multiple entities by looking at the corners of the squares. They point to the directions/news/. http://www.westminster-abbey.org/__data/assets/thumbnail/0004/81265/Cosmati-floor-2010-72dpi-Westminster-Abbey-copyright.jpg
