Recently I have been hearing much on the topic of 'Transfer of wealth" from unbelievers to believers. I have heard this preached and taught so much that I was beginning to wonder with the economic crisis what in the world were people talking about. I didn't doubt I just wasn't buying everything people were saying. I think it was because I really wanted to hear people speak about how it would be done, how the wealth would be used and I wasn't hearing it.

Recently the Lord started speaking to my heart on strategies on how to finance my ministry. I was resting one morning on the first day of a ten day fast when I awoke startled by a dream that was so lifelike - it was more of a vision. I was standing outside and having fallen forward, I  was suspended over a small sink hole. I felt myself falling further and further into the hole but fear wrestle me back. I felt if I would only let go of fear and allow myself to look into the hole I would see unimaginable things. Fear got the best of me and so in a swoon I got up and went into the house. I was in the kitchen where it was quite bare. There wasn't even so much as a stove to cook on or food in the pantry to eat. I felt myself go weak and then fall to the ground but not quite hitting the ground. My sister came into the room and asked me what was happening but I couldn't say anything. I recovered my strength and went back outside where I found myself at a sink with two compartments. One was loaded with dirty dishes and the other was empty. I remember taking the dishes rapidly out of the first sink and placing then in the next one because that sink had begun to overflow with water. I tried to stop the water but could not and so it began to overflow. My sister once again showed up and asked me what was happening and I merely said "I don't know" and then I woke up.

Soon after that vision my sister actually called me and as we began to speak I mentioned to her that I had this weird vision and when I mentioned I was falling into a sink hole she let out a gasp. Then she asked why I said "sink hole" of all the words I could have used to describe the situation. It was actually more like a dent sinking in but not breaking up. I continued to relate my vision to her and then she stated that earlier that morning she also had a vision of a sink hole and of a hole over flowing in a small town and flooding it out. I've always asked God to confirm what I hear and what I see. I pondered for a few days what it all could mean as I was praying about how I would obtain my funds for my African mission trip only a month away.

A few days later I went to church and my pastor brought the teaching that morning from 11 Kings 3:15-20. It reads as follows:

[15] And he said, Thus saith the Lord, Make this valley full of ditches. [17] For thus saith the Lord, Ye shall not see wind, neither shall ye see rain; yet that valley shall be filled with water, that ye may drink, both ye, and your cattle, and your beasts. [18] And this is but a light thing in the sight of the Lord: he will deliver the Moabites also into your hand. [19] And ye shall smite every fenced city, and every choice city, and shall fell every good tree, and stop all wells of water, and mar every good piece of land with stones. [20] And it came to pass in the morning, when the meat offering was offered, that, behold, there came water by the way of Edom, and the country was filled with water.

The word of God says we prophesy in part and we understand in part. I know why this is so. It is so that we do not run off half cocked thinking we have all the pieces to the puzzle and make a mess of things. The part that we receive is intended to give us hope and fill us with expectation. God is moving and He has an expected result for our situation. The "part" is to give us a foundation to build on and to help us remain patient and calm while God work the details out. Often the purpose is that He is preparing us to accept His will and His way of doing things for us. I know in my case this is true. As I see God's plan gradually unfold I realize that He is also equipping me to handle the details of what He is about to bestow upon me. He is making me into a good steward. He is teaching me to be resourceful and resilient. He is aligning me with the right people and getting me ready for the appointed time of delivering to me the tools that will assist me and also assist others. God does not bless us to be a blessing to ourselves only but so that we can also bring up the body in total.

God also uses the time we spend waiting patiently on Him to demonstrate what He plans on doing by opening similar doors of confirmation. I had recently added a brother from Israel to my website as a means of giving him hope and purpose. He was homeless at the time but by gosh he had a viable ministry on my website. Then I went to Peru and my friend from Singapore was in need of getting her ministry out there and I gave her the same opportunity. Before I left Peru I had made the same offer to another friend in the ministry. By the time I got home I had three individuals added to Catch the Wave Ministries. I had dug a ditch and didn't realize it and God was filling it. I saw no wind and I saw no rain but God filled this ditch and I didn't even realize that it was a ditch. By the time I got home to New Mexico I began to receive invitations from Africa to go and preach the word of God. Soon that little ditch began to spill over to over flowing. Today a friend whom I have been in ministry with called me to provide me with a resource to help in my ministry. Finally everything began to make sense. She had a ditch to be filled and I was able to fill it.

The truth is, I have a difficult time asking people to contribute to my ministry. I am not one of those people that can stand in front of others and tell them what I am going to do and then say, "If the Lord leads you, please help me fulfill this vision." No! That is definitely not me. But I can dig ditches. I have no problem with down right dirty hard labor. I love the smell of sweat and I love to see at the end of the day something that I have accomplished. I love to  know that I have put my hands to the toil and labored for a cause. Since that vision the Lord has laid it on my heart to purchase copies of my CDs and begin to gather copies of my books and to complete my latest book, Debunking Generational Curses, that has been on the shelve since I left on missions in October 2007. Off and on for some time I have felt pangs of regret that I had not the time nor was I in the country to pursue the publication of this book. After recent discussions with pastors in Africa and Pakistan I finally realize why things were on hold. Each book must have an audience if it will go anywhere. I found my audience in other countries who have been struggling with the issue of generational curses. I even received an additional blessing to have my book translated free of cost into another language. I had a ditch dug and God was waiting for the appointed time to fill it in ways I could not have imagined.

You see, when we dig ditches it is not only for us but for others as well. Sometimes we dig ditches and others fill it and sometimes others dig ditches and we fill them. That is how it works. Patience! So what has this to do with a transfer of wealth? It is not always the way we see it. Many people believe that wealth is only in the form of money, but God has shown me that wealth is in the form of whatever God says is of value to Him. I recently created a video and someone questioned why I used a secular song rather than a Christian song. My response was, "The earth is the Lord's and the fullness thereof, the world, and all they that dwell therein," Psalm 42:1. Everything in the earth is God's. A Transfer of wealth is in every area of need. If we limit God's intervention to money only, we shall reap nothing but trouble. In other words the same old way the same old stuff. Nothing will change! I believe God has already begun His transfer of wealth but we are too blind to see it. We have a tendency to see every negative situation as just that, negative. We must learn to retrain our eyes to see things God's way. I am sure Israel's enemies saw them digging holes and thought them stupid or bewitched. No wind and no rain clouds were seen. Yet the ditches were filled. That is how God works so that He can have the honor and the glory. "For thus saith the Lord, Ye shall not see." We don't see how He comes but He comes. I did not see how I would raise my much needed funds for Africa or to wherever He will send me, because I was looking for the wind and the rain. God turned my attention to the ditches that had long been dug - my CDs, t-shirts, books, and doors to speak and other strategies that I did not think of. He is placing people in my path to which the doors are wide opened. I do not know if I will make it to Africa or if I shall return to Israel instead but my focus is now on the ditches being filled and when the time comes I will see clearly the right door to enter. I have long ago learned to write my desires in pencil so that God can erase and write in pen his indelible plans.

Wealth is being transferred but your eyes must be opened to see how and when. Many churches are closing because they are unable to make budget. Many ministries are laying off employees because they can't afford the overheads. We have built facilities to large to be maintained in a recession. People are disappointed in the institution of churching because even now they are realizing that they are still hungering and thirsting for the truth of the gospel. Believers are finding themselves enabled and not prepared for what is to come. They are looking for another way. There is no other way but God's way. They have found that after years of paying tithes and offerings into churches their investment have reaped nothing spiritually or physically. The church did not provide food or shelter. The church did not help pay the rent, utility bills or the medical bills. But we read in the book of Acts that all the needs of the believers were met. "Neither was there any among then that lacked: for as many as were possessors of land or houses sold them, and brought the prices of the things that were sold. And laid them down at the apostles' feet; and distribution was made unto every man according as he had need," Acts 4:34-35. You see, this is a biblical transfer of wealth. We take what we have and we do unto the body of Christ as is righteous and then we can expect a turn over from other areas. We must first prove to be good stewards of what is in our possession. Then we can take back the rest. Yes He will increase our wealth.

The church has been in debt to banking institutions far to long. We need to take care of the widows and orphans around us. We need to make sure that every member of the body of Christ has food and shelter and clothing and their needs are met. We have been warehousing church buildings far to long. We put them in costly storage Monday to Sunday mornings. God will give us new strategies for the coming years and it will not be what most people are expecting. Many believers will return to New Testament home churches. Many others will drive around in cars, vans, and trucks that will serve as the new church buildings. They will distribute food, clothing, bibles from the trunk of their vehicles and preach right from the hood of them. Many others will have food banks and clothing banks and soup kitchens operating right out of their homes. They will be no need for social service agencies because the church will finally get it right and provided the services like we were commissioned to do. Home churches will dot communities with no additional overhead cost to the home owners or members. There will be no competitive edge needed in home churches because as soon as one gets its members discipled they will go off and start their own. They will evangelize, disciple and release!

So where is the wealth? It is in every area. The body of Christ will get creative and do amazing things never done before. The thing of greatest value to God is the human soul. Transfer of wealth - the harvest. He also values our work ethics and the faithful will have no qualms in laboring because each day they will see their accomplishments. They will see where every dime goes, where every piece of clothing is donated to, they will see the hungry being fed and the sick will be visited because we wouldn't be shut in by four walls. God has already given into our hands the tools we need to make a go at missions. There will be a spiritual famine in the land and so people will be seeking real spiritual food and it will be found of the remnant that have produced quality tools to encourage and edify the brethren. The wealth is in what you already possess and have buried. Dig your ditch and recover your wealth. God has showed me my wealth. From this He will add to it. With my one talent I shall reap ten and with my ten I shall reap twenty.

A believer friend called me this afternoon to put me on to a program that will take some of the wealth away from the world and will help me and your ministry. I have added a CVN (Christian Value Network) link on to my website. By registering on this website and selecting a Christian ministry to donate a portion of the sales to, you will help fund many ministries. We have dumped billions of dollars into retail stores over the decades and have not reaped anything in return. It is time for us to reap some of the benefits from our purchases. We have to find creative ways to recoup what we give out to the world. When you buy why not buy so that believers can benefit. This link will put you in touch with helping ministries that have a sincere heart for the harvest. You will be able to purchase many of your day-to-day products from this site.

I hope you will all consider allowing God to stretch your imagination for His kingdom. Use what He has already given you. Share information with other believers (see mom on missions for ideas). Share your website, your home, your intellectual properties, your wealth and watch God do His thing. The transfer of wealth starts first with what each of us have. Let us do something different. Let charity start first at home.

My products are available on this website on the store link. Proof of my works is also posted on my travel journals and all my intellectual properties are displayed here on many of these pages. If photos are not included it is only because I feel a sense of responsibility for what I place on my website. I will not put someone's photo on this site if I think it will cause harm to them. We are our brother's keepers. When I travel and encounter ministries that truly tug at my heart and I have proven them to be true to their work I post here and encourage those who feel lead to support them. You have no idea what extending a webpage to someone can do for a person who has a desire to serve but no way of doing so. Catch the Wave Ministries is truly that, Catch the Wave Ministries. It is not just mine, it is anyone that have a heart for the lost and need a way to reach them. Reaching them also means stirring you up to pray for others, support others and finding the courage to go and do likewise. This is real wealth - inspiring others to defeat their fears and Goliaths.
