A market.
Please pause and lift a prayer for Angel (pictured below). Angel gratefully received the ministry of the spoken Word of Christ this day. He rejoiced joyfully. Upon departing Angel took 2 Jesus tracts in Spanish to go share with others! Someone has rightly stated that “the Gospel is the only thing you must give away to keep.”
I let each of these beloved souls who are being ministered to know that we, members of the body of Christ, are praying for them. They are delighted to hear such.

WE are Christ’s body. Each member is blessed with the opportunity to participate in spreading His love, the salvation of Christ (1 Corinthians 3:9).
You are with us here “in the spirit” if you will …. blessing these beloved souls who are the hungriest most gracious people this disciple has ever witnessed.
“For though I be absent in the flesh, yet am I with you in the spirit, joying and beholding your order, and the stedfastness of your faith in Christ.” Colossians 2:5
This man and his dear friend, another older gentlemen, earnestly listened to the lovingly articulated preaching of the Word of God in Spanish. After extensive vocal communication of God’s Word, preaching Jesus, I gave this man a Spanish JESUS tract and his friend, who heard it all, reached out his hand to receive his own copy of the JESUS tract. Solid ministering. This man’s countenance reveals that for many years His Maker has been convicting his conscience of sin, which we “all” have committed and are fully guilty (Romans 3).

Saints, we can’t feed the world but we sure can be the world of blessings to some of them! “WE are labourers TOGETHER with God” (1 Corinthians 3:9).
YOU, YOUR GIFTS are making this possible. Feeding the stomachs of the poor, yes! Feed the poor the Word of God and natural food is what is being done. Spiritual bread which is Christ, the bread of life.
“And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst.” John 6:35
Natural bread, food, nourishes, satisfies for a little time and the heavenly Bread of Heaven, Jesus Christ, nourishes and satisfies for ever!
The body of Christ is sent by Christ to feed the world “the bread of life” which is He who came to die, to be buried, and to be raised again from the dead for the justification of our sins – to bring us into His royal, eternal family (Ephesians 1).
“And we know that the Son of God is come, and you have given us an understanding, that we may know him that is true, and we are in him that is true, even in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life .” 1 John 5:20
“I really appreciate these updates. Helps us all pray more for you and the ministry there. Helps us feel part of it. The Feedback section is great too! Helps me (and I’m sure each of us) feel like we’re not alone. Again, that we are part of something waaaaaay bigger.” Debbie Lord
“Thanks for sharing updates on your missions in Mexico. God has given you a heart of compassion. Just as Jesus was filled with compassion when we saw the multitudes, He was moved with compassion because they ‘were scattered abroad, as sheep having no shepherd’ (Matthew 9:36). He saw their physical, emotional and spiritual needs! Just as you are seeing the people’s needs through the eyes of Jesus.” Karen Cochran
One particular evening
this week, several people
were fed and ministered to.
Thank you for saying you love
these people and that they
matter to our LORD…..
with your giving.
Paulo also rejoiced to hear our
LORD’s Word and also to
receive some help to get
some food to eat.
RECENTLY this precious woman, after the Word was ministered to her, began praising and extolling Jesus. Apparently she is saved. Her heart rejoiced. She received a gift to help her, including to get her some food and some water for the evening. Her spirit leaped for joy. She came to me seeking help…. and this is what she received, from God – the riches of Christ (Acts 3:1-6).
Last evening, about 6-8 people were fed and ministered to. Thank you for saying you love these people and that they matter to our LORD, to you….. with your giving.
Saints, we can’t feed every poor person in this world but we sure can be the world of blessings to some of them! “WE are workers TOGETHER with God” (1 Corinthians 3:9).
Please know that we will ALWAYS most importantly give them God’s love in the form of His spoken and printed Word.

There are lots of precious people like Amelia. They are not asking for a handout. No, they are selling things some people desire. What we are doing is ministering God’s Word to some of them and giving them some natural needs help also. These are “the poor” Scriptures speak of specifically 145 times and informs us that we are blessed if we help them with what our LORD has placed in our hands.
“He that hath pity upon the poor lendeth unto the LORD; and that which he hath given will he pay him again.” Proverbs 19:17
When we have pity upon the poor, when we feed them, we are lending to the LORD. He will repay. These are HIS words. This is HIS promise. Read the verse above again. Mix His Word of promise with faith (Hebrews 4:2).
“And Jesus, when he came out, saw many people, and was moved with compassion toward them, because they were as sheep not having a shepherd: and he began to teach them many things. … Give them ye to eat.” Mark 6:34, 37
“Jesus was deeply moved with compassion as he saw the needs of the people. He used this moment to feed them physically (Mark 6:36-44), but also fed them spiritually as he began to teach them.” Karen Cochran

5 Loaves, 2 Fishes, and 12 Baskets Left Over [podcast]
“And when James, Cephas, and John, who seemed to be pillars, perceived the grace that was given unto me, they gave to me and Barnabas the right hands of fellowship; that we should go unto the heathen, and they unto the circumcision. 10 Only they would that we should remember the poor; the same which I also was forward to do.” Galatians 2:9-10
Did Jesus come as a celebrity or servant? Read Philippians 2 each morning this week.
“Give to him that asketh thee, and from him that would borrow of thee turn not thou away.” Matthew 5:42
“Give to every man that asketh of thee; and of him that taketh away thy goods ask them not again.” Luke 6:30
“If thou faint in the day of adversity, thy strength is small. 11 If thou forbear to deliver them that are drawn unto death, and those that are ready to be slain; 12 If thou sayest, Behold, we knew it not; doth not he that pondereth the heart consider it? and he that keepeth thy soul, doth not he know it? and shall not he render to every man according to his works?” Proverbs 24:12
FEEDING THE POOR IN SPIRIT AND STOMACH: Because you care, you prayed, you gave….. Cenovio, a homeless man, was treated to the hearing of our LORD’s bless-ed Gospel message, a delicious hot meal, hot coffee, fresh water, and a JESUS tract. It was a super blessed time with this man. Thank God and you!
Would you like to pause and pray for Cenovio? | Mission Mexico
Of Jesus feeding the multitudes, one source notes:
“Jesus fed a large crowd on at least two occasions, most notably feeding 5,000 men plus women and children with five loaves and two fish, and later feeding 4,000 men plus women and children with seven loaves and a few fish. The miracles occurred when Jesus had compassion on the hungry crowds who had been following him, and the food multiplied supernaturally, leaving 12 baskets of leftovers in the first instance and seven in the second.”

10 Truths to Behold in Isaiah 41:10 [podcast]
“Thou art my servant; I have chosen thee, and not
cast thee away. 10 Fear thou not; for I am with thee:
be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen
thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold
thee with the right hand of my righteousness.”
Isaiah 41:9-10
There are 10 truths to behold in Isaiah 41:10:
• “Thou art my servant”
• “I have chosen thee”
• “and not cast thee away”
• “Fear thou not”
• “I am with thee”
• “be not dismayed”
• “for I am thy God”
• “I will strengthen thee”
• “I will help thee”
• “I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness”
The soul that prospers is that one who clings to, trusts in and
relies upon Christ alone, day by day, walking ever nearer to
the soon coming Savior. He is with us and promises to “never
leave thee, nor forsake thee”—that is, for those who abide
with Christ (Hebrews 13:5).
1 Peter 1
“Elect according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, through sanctification of the Spirit, unto obedience and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ: Grace unto you, and peace, be multiplied.
3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which according to his abundant mercy hath begotten us again unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,
4 To an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you,
5 Who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.
6 Wherein ye greatly rejoice, though now for a season, if need be, ye are in heaviness through manifold temptations:
7 That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ:
8 Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory:
9 Receiving the end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls.
Prayer: Dear LORD, thank You for helping me today, and
continuing the good work of salvation You began in me the
moment You saved me. In Jesus’ name, amen.
