My Good Friend,Maryam
reply to my email address
drismicheal67@yahoo.com,
I am Mrs Doris Michael. I am Married to Mr. David Michael
who worked with our Embassy in Spain for nine years before
he died in the year 2002. 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 Christian. Since
his death I decided not to re-marry or get a child outside
my matrimonial home which the Bible is against. When my late
husband was alive he deposited the sum of $18.5 Million with
a Bank in Benin Republic Presently this money is still in
the custody of the Bank in Benin.
Recently, my Doctor told me that I would not last for the
next Eight months due to cancer problem, but I know that my
doctor is not God. Having known my condition I decided to
donate this fund to a Church, Organisation or good person
that will utilize this money the way I am going to instruct
herein. I want a Church, Organisation or good person that
will use this fund for Orphanages, Widows and other peoples
that needs help and also propagating the word of God and to
endeavor that the house of God is maintained.
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 not even good at all because they are the
one that are responsible for the death of my husband in
other to have all my late husband properties and i don't
want my husband's effort to be used by those that conspired
for his death.
This is why I am taking this decision, 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 dont need any telephone communication in this
regard because of my health hence the presence of my
husband's relatives are around me always. I don't want them
to know about this development and I know that with God all
things are possible to those who trust in Him.
As soon as I received your reply I shall give you the
contact of the Bank in Benin. I will also issue a letter of
authorization to the bank that will prove you the present
beneficiary of this money. I also want you, Church or
Organization to always pray for me because the Lord is my
only Shephard. My happiness is that I lived a life of a
worthy Christian. Whoever that wants to serve the Lord must
serve Him in spirit and truth.
Please always be prayer f ul l through your life. Contact me
on this email address(drismicheal67@yahoo.com,) and any
delay in your reply will give me room in sourcing another
good person, church or organization for this same purpose.
Please assure me that you will act accordingly as I stated
herein.
Hoping to receive your response immediately,
I remain yours sister in Christ.
Mrs. Doris Michael.
