Ministry Update: The Beautiful People of Queretaro, Mexico are Receiving God’s Word ….

Boots on the Ground in Mexico

“The Lord gave the word: great was the company of those that published it.” Psalms 68:11

“For we are labourers together with God: ye are God’s husbandry, ye are God’s building.” 1 Corinthians 3:9

Here’s a quick clip of me preaching the Word to 2 catholic nuns this morning, informing them in Spanish that Jesus Christ is the only way to God, not Mary, or the pope, but Jesus!

 

Below is a picture of Omar. He joyfully received the Word of our God when Jesus was preached to him, learning that the precious blood can wash away all his sins. With a huge smile he responded with “Really!”

This picture was taken this week with beloved Omar. As I was conversing with an older gentleman, employee of a large store, this man Omar turned the corner and the words of God, with huge joy and smile began to flow to Omar, in Spanish, concerning how Jesus did not come to start a religion but to give Him the blessing of a relationship and that Christ wants to wash away all his sins in His precious blood. Then a testimony of how Jesus had done just that for me followed – and that Jesus wanted to do the same for Omar. Omar was elated, overjoyed. His reaction was as if to say “THIS is the best news I’ve ever heard!” And it sure is! The older gentlemen then lit up and told me he is a Christian and told me what fellowship he was a part of. The older man heard it all, he was right there, and so I asked him twice to lead Omar to Jesus and minister more to him.

“And there was great joy in that city.” Acts 8:8

As we testify to His saving goodness and Gospel, the body of Christ is sparking heavenly joy for the salvation of our LORD Jesus. – “Praising God, and having favour with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved.” (Acts 2:47)

This but one occurance. This kind of heavenly ministry has been transpiring daily for over a week now and we look forward to getting the JESUS tract printed here in Mexico in order to give one to everyone we come into contact with and to give hundreds or thousands to other believers to distribute here. (see the Spanish JESUS tract below)  There is simply no defining just how open these people are. In nearly each and every case, after I speaking God’s Word to them in Spanish, they smile and nearly want to hug me. If I chose to stand there and speak the Word to them in Spanish for an hour, they just smile and listen the whole time! Regrettably, I am currently unable to speak for more than a moment or two in Spanish but the learning curve is on!!!!

$540 USD to have 5,000 of these tracts (above) printed at local printer. Give Here.

Responses from You on this Relocation

“I enjoyed hearing from you there in Mexico. I loved the update and pictures. It is a blessing you are there and God will use you very much. I will email you to communicate. Thank you for praying for my family and I. Have a blessed day and weekend.” Dana

“Unbelievable! I never would have imagined there was such a place this side of heaven! It must be freeing to be out of this country’s moral decay. As we have become Sodom and Gomorrah. And next month it will be worse as it is pride monthnd, and many churches also celebrate it! Pray for us still here. We have to not let our country’s moral decay affect us and our walk with Christ. Narrow is the way (Matt. 7:13-14). Thank you for sharing your amazing journey with us! Inspiring!” Karen

“God is restoring the years the locusts have eaten! Wow no blue haired women or freaks.. Most women here are filled with ear rings, tatts and blue hair.  We the American people here are being poisoned, lied to, and killed off. What a blessing is Mexico! Prayers for you brother and that safeguard grows and wins souls for the kingdom!”  DB

“Great update! It’s wonderful to hear about life in your new surroundings. Especially about the fresh impact of the Gospel of Christ you are bringing to that area. I feel it and share your excitement for this opportunity to shine the light of Jesus every day among people you love — the people of Queretaro! Praying for every single ministry need to be met and more, so SGYS can grow as the Lord desires and directs, and always for provision for you to be well taken care of. Aaaaaand Colossians 4:12” Debbie

“God bless you Todd, and thank-you for  updating us on your journey with Jesus. I can feel the excitement in you as I read this email.  God is a rewarder of persons and He will reward you with many blessings, ask and it will be given to you.  My prayers for you will be that God will bless you with every good thing under  heaven. I stand in agreement with your prayers. You are one amazing soilder for Jesus. I will also send gifts to you to help provide. Your’e a true teacher – not just in learning from you but by your actions too.  I feel overwhelmed with what the Lord is doing with you.  This is going to be a fruitful journey. May the Lord bring many lost souls to you for a divine encounter with the Boss Himself.  Thank-you Todd.” Dawn

“Amen, Thank God for being ahead of safeguardyoursoul’s recent move. May He continue to stand with you and his work there. Amen.” Charles, Kenya.

“Praise the Lord Todd!!! It is amazing to hear how God is working through you is that beautiful town! It brings joy to my heart to hear the gospel is being so readily spoken and received there. Continuing to pray for you and that God will use you mightily. Your brother in Christ,” Jim Brumbaugh

My initial observations in Mexico

There is no sign of Jesus here. Wide open mission field. Been preaching Jesus daily. 100% acceptation.

There is 100% openness to His Word. Many of the people can’t thank you enough for speaking God’s Word to them.

Walking down the street early in the morning a few days ago, I came upon an older gypsy woman who was homeless. This precious lady was waking up from sleeping on the street all night, as if it were just a normal day. She was not sad at all, and seemed content. I was overcome with tears.

In the name of Jesus, may God bless us to help people like this. As in bringing them a hot meal, fresh water, and the love and Gospel of Jesus.

There aren’t that many homeless people around here. It seems less than America’s cities actually.

In the coming days, LORD willing, I can perhaps capture a few things in pictures and video.

Falling in love with this city.

Was already in love with the people before arriving, from past experience and also, since the moment I crossed the border.

The people in Central and South America are the native American, indigenous Indian people. The Spanish merely colonized and brought their language. Ancient, cohesive people and in this case that’s good because of the family and kindness characteristics.

Very few of these people are Christians. So far I’ve met 2 or 3.

Yet they CARE about everyone else and respond amazingly to the Word of God.

They stop everything to help, when asked and even offer to assist before being asked when there’s a translation opportunity.

When they help you, there’s no rush. It doesn’t matter how long it takes.

Exemplary. Delightful.

In Mexico, no one pumps their own gas. There are several attendants at all gas stations. These men and women who work at the gas stations are actually losing money by stopping to help you. They don’t care about that. They care about you, even though they’d never met you before.

They worked together to help me, over and over on the way here. Due to google maps not being available because my phone was down.

These people know how to live. It’s ALL about family. So many young couples with children (Psalms 127).

Any country, area of the world, is all about the people, first and foremost.

It seems that …. perhaps, as some of you have pointed out in your input concerning this relocation (below and on the podcast), it becomes apparent that the self-intoxication and spiritual fornication with excessive riches, ease, and prosperity in America has insulated most from being able to be reached….Laodicea (Revelation 3:14-22). The arrogant hearts says “I have all I need, I don’t need God” (Proverbs 30:8-9).

It is said that Queretaro, Mexico is ripe for investing since the city is safe, desired, year-round mild climate, and historic 16th century colonial architecture from the Spanish. Think about the opportunity you and I have before us right now…. laying the foundation for many to be saved into the eternal family of our LORD and King, Jesus Christ.

Once the JESUS tract in Spanish is in print, the people will be receiving a clear Gospel message with the opportunity for them to pray in repentance and faith at the end.

The local printer just quoted printing 5,000 of the JESUS tract in Spanish. $540 USD – you are invited to contribute here.

Have been asked about being able to speak some Spanish… Have been learning and speaking a bit of it for many years. Able to preach a bit in Spanish and have been for over a week now to nearly everyone. They were overjoyed that I was learning their treasured language and hopefully, also glad to receive the Word of our God.

Several times a day people assertively smile and greet me, saying hello and shaking my hand.

    Since I have yet to listen to your podcast, curious: Are you going to live there permanently? Glad for you! Yet somehow (in a strange way) feels as though you deserted us! 🙂
    No hard feelings of course.
    Wishing you only the best!
    And may God grant that you will be free from harm! Psalm 91

Laying Up Treasure in Heaven 60 second video #shorts


“but as his part is that goeth down to the battle, so shall his part be that tarrieth by the stuff: they shall part alike.” 1 Samuel 30:24 

A financial investor takes your money and multiplies it for your last few years in this temporal life, right? In contrast, laborers for Christ take your support and multiply it for Christ and themselves for all eternity. In Christ’s eternal kingdom – everybody wins, all the time, forever. King Jesus reigns forever!

“Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: 20 But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal: 21 For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.” Matthew 6:19-21

“Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again.” Luke 6:38

Paul was not coveting any man’s money – “I have coveted no man’s silver, or gold, or apparel.” (Acts 20:33) No! He wanted God’s people to invest in Christ’s eternal kingdom – into eternal souls – and by doing so fill their “account” in Heaven. – “Not because I desire a gift: but I desire fruit that may abound to your account.” (Philippians 4:17)

God gives the increase of lost souls as “For we are labourers together with God.”

“I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase. 7  So then neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase. 8  Now he that planteth and he that watereth are one: and every man shall receive his own reward according to his own labour. 9  For we are labourers together with God: ye are God’s husbandry, ye are God’s building.” 1 Corinthians 3:6-9 

Gospel train rolling. Team Jesus! We must obey our LORD Jesus’ Great Command saints. You are not alone – God is with you, and us!

“And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. 19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: 20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.” Matthew 28:18-20

The Essential of Forgiveness: Are Your Hands Around Someone Else’s Throat? [podcast]


Forgiveness is ultra important to God. If you don’t forgive all others, you are not forgiven of your own sin and are as sure for hell as if you were already there. If you refuse to forgive you damn your own soul, non-negotiably. irrevocably.

GOD SAW IT ALL – HE SAW ALL YOUR SIN AND YET YOU HOLD UNFORGIVENESS TOWARD ANOTHER. IF you want to be forgiven, you MUST forgive. Do it now (Mark 11:25-26). Begin by admitting aloud to God what He already knows – that you are pure evil and have sinned against Him innumerable times! cry out to Him for mercy and declare aloud that no one needs Jesus more than you do!

“Harboring unforgiveness against someone else is like drinking poison and hoping the other person dies.” unknown

The reason people have a hard time forgiving, is that they’ve not yet been brought to the place in God to realize just how wicked THEY themselves are – and how merciful God was when He sent His only begotten Son to die for them “WHILE we (they) were yet sinners.” (Romans 5:6-8)

Outside of Christ’s righteousness, YOU are utterly wicked and depraved in the eyes of a holy God (Jeremiah 17:9; Romans 3, 7). When this finally sinks down into your heart, you will immediately and freely forgive all you’ve harbored ill will against – in utter forgiveness. This breaking all begins when we repent (Acts 3:19).

The sins that should concern us the most, are our own!

People who don’t forgive simply do not realize just how wicked they themselves are.

God will not forgive the sins of any person who refuses to forgive all others – from their heart (Matthew 18:21-35; Mark 11:25-26, etc.). Unforgiveness is non-negotiably, irrefutably, soul damning sin.

Forgiveness is a Non-Negotiable Essential for having a relationship with the LORD and going to Heaven.

ANYone who doesn’t forgive EVERYone is going to hell irrevocably! Matthew 18:21-35

GOD mercifully forgive each of us, His children, not on our own merit or behalf, but rather on the perfect behalf of Christ Jesus! He now requires us to freely forgive all others as He mercifully forgave us. Non-negotiably saints.

We shall not receive divine mercy unless we freely show it to others (Mark 11:25-26). And anyone who denies this calls the son of God a liar.

Father, please forgive my hardness of heart, my obstinance, my heart rebellion. Please forgive my gross sins and grant this heart to be a heart of flesh dear LORD. In Jesus’ name, amen.

“Unforgiveness is poison to your soul. I see many who think by holding hatred and anger they are hurting the person they are mad at! But it damns their own soul! And will destroy you from the inside out! That is God’s judgment if we choose not to forgive.” Karen Cochran

The Parable of the Unforgiving Servant:  A Parable is Simple an Earthly Story with a Heavenly Meaning. Matthew 18:21-35

Mat 18:21  Then came Peter to him, and said, Lord, how oft shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? till seven times? 
Mat 18:22  Jesus saith unto him, I say not unto thee, Until seven times: but, Until seventy times seven. 
Mat 18:23  Therefore is the kingdom of heaven likened unto a certain king, which would take account of his servants. 
Mat 18:24  And when he had begun to reckon, one was brought unto him, which owed him ten thousand talents. 
Mat 18:25  But forasmuch as he had not to pay, his lord commanded him to be sold, and his wife, and children, and all that he had, and payment to be made. 
Mat 18:26  The servant therefore fell down, and worshipped him, saying, Lord, have patience with me, and I will pay thee all. 
Mat 18:27  Then the lord of that servant was moved with compassion, and loosed him, and forgave him the debt. 
Mat 18:28  But the same servant went out, and found one of his fellowservants, which owed him an hundred pence: and he laid hands on him, and took him by the throat, saying, Pay me that thou owest. 
Mat 18:29  And his fellowservant fell down at his feet, and besought him, saying, Have patience with me, and I will pay thee all. 
Mat 18:30  And he would not: but went and cast him into prison, till he should pay the debt. 
Mat 18:31  So when his fellowservants saw what was done, they were very sorry, and came and told unto their lord all that was done. 
Mat 18:32  Then his lord, after that he had called him, said unto him, O thou wicked servant, I forgave thee all that debt, because thou desiredst me: 
Mat 18:33  Shouldest not thou also have had compassion on thy fellowservant, even as I had pity on thee? 
Mat 18:34  And his lord was wroth (furious), and delivered him to the tormentors, till he should pay all that was due unto him. 
Mat 18:35  So likewise shall my heavenly Father do also unto you, if ye from your hearts forgive not every one his brother their trespasses. 

Forgiving others is essential to answered prayer. It’s a non-negotiable, divinely required condition.

“Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them. 25 And when ye stand praying, FORGIVE, if ye have ought against any: that your Father also which is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses. 26 But if ye do not forgive, neither will your Father which is in heaven forgive your trespasses.” Mark 11:24-26 

Clear it all out…. the past is the past saints … “Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice: 32 And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ’s sake hath forgiven you.” (Ephesians 4:31-32)

God forgave us in our wickedness, “while we were yet sinners”, on the basis of Christ’s righteousness and in spite of our own evil, sinful state (Romans 5:6-8). Now, as His children, we are non-negotiably commanded to freely forgive all. If we don’t, the Father will not forgive us and if we die that way, we shall perish irrevocably (Mark 11:25-26).

ALL it takes to go the eternal hell is to not forgive just 1 person (Matthew 18:21-35; Mark 11:25-26).

You are not forgiven if you don’t forgive – all, from your heart.

When we realize just how “desperately wicked” WE ourselves are outside of the present saving mercy of God, then will we freely forgive all others (Jeremiah 17:9).

IF THE LORD ISN’T A GOD OF MERCY, WE’RE ALL IN TROUBLE…. SELAH. GIVE OUT MERCY LIKE YOU NEED IT – BECAUSE YOU DO!!!

AS you were shown mercy in your sin, God requires that you show mercy to all others – and if you don’t, you lose His divine mercy. Repent. Acknowledge your own utter wickedness and myriad of sins before God in true repentance, and forgive all – now. Memorize James 2:13 now. 

“For he shall have judgment without mercy, that hath shewed no mercy; and mercy rejoiceth against judgment.” James 2:13

A sure way to bring judgment on ourselves is to judge another while we have sin in our own life (Matthew 7:1-5; James 2:13). Repent now.

PRAYER: Dear heavenly Father, I come to You as a vile sinner in and through the precious blood and name of Jesus Christ. I am guilty of infinite sin before You and here and now express to You my thanksgiving for sending Your only begotten Son to die on that cross for me, for my sin of which I am 100% guilty. There is no good thing in me except You LORD Jesus. I am not good but You are dear LORD. Having been freely forgiven by You LORD, I have no business not forgiving all others. In light of how You’ve mercifully forgiven me, I fully understand that You will damn my soul to eternal hell if I refuse to forgive all others of all offenses. Jesus please rebuke and break me to the core of my being, taking away all hardness of heart and granting to me a heart of flesh. Please fill me with Your love Father, in Jesus’ name, amen.
