CBN WELL WELCOME TO
THE 700 CLUB.
THE PENTAGON IS DEPLOYING MORE
TROOPS TO THE SOUTHERN BORDER.
IT'S ONE OF MANY MOVES BY
PRESIDENT TRUMP TO TACKLE
ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION.
WELL, THE ADMINISTRATION IS
ALSO WARNING STATE AND LOCAL
GOVERNMENTS THERE WILL BE
CONSEQUENCES FOR FAILING TO
COMPLY WITH ITS IMMIGRATION
POLICIES.
DALE HAS THE STORY.
THE DEFENSE DEPARTMENT IS
SENDING AT LEAST 1500
ADDITIONAL ACTIVE DUTY GROUND
TROOPS TO THE SOUTHERN BORDER
IN WHAT MAY BE ONLY FIRST WAVE
OF SEVERAL DEPLOYMENTS.
ABOUT 2500 TROOPS ARE ALREADY
THERE.
IN HIS FIRST LIVE INTERVIEW ON
FOX NEWS, TRUMP DEFENDED HIS
AGGRESSIVE TO ILLEGAL
IMMIGRATION.
THIS WAS A GROSS MISCARRIAGE
OF COMMONSENSE TO ALLOW TO COME
IN.
AND I BELIEVE THE NUMBER IS 21
MILLION PEOPLE AND A LARGE
PERCENTAGE OF THEM ARE
CRIMINALS.
PRISONS FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD
HAVE BEEN EMPTIED OUT INTO OUR
COUNTRY BY BIDEN ALLOWING IT TO
HAPPEN.
MEANWHILE, 22 STATE
ATTORNEYS GENERAL HAVE FILED
SUIT TO BLOCK TRUMP'S ORDER TO
END BIRTHRIGHT CITIZENSHIP.
CONGRESS THE 14TH AMENDMENT
AFTER THE CIVIL WAR WHICH
STATED THAT ALL PEOPLE BORN IN
THE COUNTRY WERE CITIZENS.
IT WAS AIMED ESTABLISHING
FULL CITIZENSHIP RIGHTS FOR
BLACK AMERICANS WHO UNDER
SLAVERY.
A JUSTICE DEPARTMENT MEMO WARNS
THAT AND LOCAL GOVERNMENTS WILL
BE INVESTIGATED IF THEY FAIL TO
COMPLY WITH THE NEW IMMIGRATION
POLICIES.
TRUMP ALSO WARNED MIGHT CUT
FEDERAL FUNDS TO SANCTUARY
CITIES.
PRESIDENT'S BEEN CLEAR I'VE
BEEN CLEAR THAT RIGHT OUT OF
THE GATE WE'RE LOOKING FOR
PUBLIC SAFETY THREATS.
AGENTS ARE THERE DOING THAT
NOW.
THE WHITE HOUSE HAS ALSO LIFTED
THE BAN ON IMMIGRATION,
ARRESTED CHURCHES AND SCHOOLS.
A IN LONG STANDING IMMIGRATION
ENFORCEMENT POLICY AT TUESDAY'S
NATIONAL PRAYER SERVICE, BISHOP
MARIANNE ASKED TRUMP TO HAVE
EMPATHY FOR MARGINALIZED PEOPLE
INCLUDING UNDOCUMENTED
IMMIGRANTS WHO MAY NOT BE
CITIZENS OR HAVE THE PROPER
DOCUMENTATION.
BUT THE VAST MAJORITY OF
IMMIGRANTS ARE NOT CRIMINALS.
THEY PAY TAXES AND ARE GOOD
NEIGHBORS.
I ASK YOU TO HAVE MERCY, MR.
PRESIDENT.
HOWEVER, THE HEAD OF THE FAMILY
RESEARCH COUNCIL TONY PERKINS,
A PASTOR DEFENDED ICE OFFICERS
ENTERING CHURCHES AT CHURCH IS
A SAFE HAVEN FOR SINNERS BUT
NOT A HARBOR FOR RAPISTS AND
MURDERERS.
IF THESE CHURCHES BEING USED
FOR TO HOUSE AND TO HARBOR
MURDERERS AND RAPISTS AND OTHER
CRIMINALS THAT ARE HERE
ILLEGALLY, I THINK THE
GOVERNMENT HAS A RIGHT TO GO IN
AND REMOVE THEM.
THE HOUSE WEDNESDAY PASSED
THE LAKE AND RILEY ACT NAMED
AFTER A GEORGIA NURSING STUDENT
WHO WAS MURDERED LAST YEAR BY A
VENEZUELAN MAN WHO THE U.S.
ILLEGALLY.
IT REQUIRES THE DETAINMENT OF
UNAUTHORIZED IMMIGRANTS ACCUSED
OF THEFT AND VIOLENT CRIMES.
46 DEMOCRATS JOINED REPUBLICANS
IN PASSING THE FIRST BILL THE
PRESIDENT SIGNS.
DALE HURD CBN NEWS.
WELL, LET'S HOPE FOR A
COMMON SENSE TO PREVAIL.
LET'S ALSO HOPE FOR CIVILITY TO
PREVAIL.
ONE OF THE INSTRUCTIONS TO ICE
IS PLEASE USE MEANS AND SO IN
THAT DO YOU REALLY WANT TO
INTERRUPT A CHURCH SERVICE IN
ORDER TO GET SOMEBODY OUT OF A
PEW?
I DON'T THINK THAT'S
REASONABLE.
SO PLEASE DON'T DO THAT.
YOU CAN YOU CAN WAIT.
THE SERVICE ISN'T GOING TO GO
ON FOREVER AND AT SOME POINT IN
TIME YOU'LL BE ABLE TO CATCH
WHOEVER YOU'RE LOOKING FOR.
I HAVE ALWAYS WONDERED
ALWAYS IS PROBABLY NOT TOO
STRONG BUT DEFINITELY LAST FOR
YEARS.
WHAT IN THE WORLD WAS ON THEIR
MINDS TO?
LET THE SOUTHERN BORDER BE
OPEN.
IT MAKES NO SENSE TO ME AND FOR
NOW THERE TO BE THIS SORT OF
BACKLASH THAT WE'RE GOING TO
CREATE SANCTUARY CITIES AND ICE
IS NOT GOING TO BE ABLE TO
OPERATE WITHIN OUR CITY LIMITS.
AGAIN, IT JUST MAKES NO SENSE.
EITHER WE ENFORCE THE
IMMIGRATION LAWS OR WE CHANGE
THEM.
I DON'T THINK THE
ADMINISTRATION AN OPTION.
THE LAWS WERE PASSED BY
CONGRESS.
THEY WERE SIGNED BY PREVIOUS
ADMINISTRATIONS.
THIS IS WHY CALL IT ILLEGAL
IMMIGRATION.
SO ARE YOU GOING TO ENFORCE
THAT LAW OR NOT?
RIGHT NOW TRUMP IS SAYING HE'S
ENFORCING IT.
SO YEAH, HE'S ENFORCING THE
LAWS THAT ARE ALREADY ON THE
BOOKS.
IN OTHER NEWS, A UN WARNS IRAN
IS SPEEDING UP ITS URANIUM
ENRICHMENT TO NEAR WEAPONS
GRADE LEVEL.
JOHN JESSUP HAS THAT STORY AND
MORE FROM OUR CBN NEWS BUREAU
IN WASHINGTON.
JOHN THAT'S RYAN GORDON THE
HEAD OF THE INTERNET ATOMIC
ENERGY AGENCY SAID IRAN IS
QUOTE PRESSING THE GAS PEDAL
ACCELERATING ENRICHMENT UP TO
60% WHICH IS JUST A STEP AWAY
FROM THE 90% NEEDED FOR WEAPONS
GRADE.
CRITICS SAY THAT CAN ONLY LEAD
TO THE PRODUCTION OF NUCLEAR
WEAPONS.
MEANWHILE, THE IRANIAN BACKED
HOUTHI REBELS ARE BEING
DESIGNATED A FOREIGN TERRORIST
ORGANIZATION.
THE HOUTHIS FIRED BALLISTIC
MISSILES AT ISRAEL AND ATTACKED
CARGO SHIPS AND US MILITARY
VESSELS IN THE RED SEA.
PRESIDENT TRUMP ISSUED AN
EXECUTIVE ORDER TO PUT THE
GROUP BACK ON THE LIST AFTER
DUBAI AFTER THE BIDEN
ADMINISTRATION TOOK IT OFF.
WELL, HERE AT HOME A NEW FIRE
IS RAVAGING SOUTHERN
CALIFORNIA.
FIREFIGHTERS ARE TRYING TO
MAINTAIN THE UPPER HAND A HUGE
AND RAPIDLY MOVING WILDFIRE
SWEEPING THROUGH THE MOUNTAINS
NORTH OF LOS ANGELES.
MORE THAN 50,000 PEOPLE ARE
UNDER EVACUATION ORDERS OR
WARNINGS.
THE HUGE FIRE BROKE OUT LATE
WEDNESDAY MORNING SPREADING AT
30 ACRES A MINUTE IN LESS THAN
A DAY.
IT CHARRED NEARLY 16 SQUARE
MILES OF TREES BRUSH.
40 MILES AWAY.
FIREFIGHTERS IN ALTADENA ARE
STILL TO FULLY CONTAIN THE
EATON FIRE WHICH HAS DESTROYED
MORE THAN 9000 BUILDINGS.
SIMEON'S PAUL PETITE SHOWS US
HOW BLESSING IS HELPING FIRST
RESPONDERS SERVING ON THE FRONT
LINES.
IT'S HARD TO LOOK ANYWHERE IN
ALTADENA WITHOUT SEEING
DESTRUCTION.
HOMES, BUSINESSES.
A JEWISH COMMUNITY CENTER ALL
GONE.
THERE'S LIKE A BLOWTORCH
COMING.
THE CITY OF ALL THE DINER
ACROSS THE STREET FROM THESE
BURNED OUT TOWNHOME HOMES IS
FIRE STATION 11.
ONE OF THE VERY FIRST TEAMS
RESPOND TO THE EDEN FIRE.
I TOOK IN THOSE THREE DAYS
WAS PROBABLY THE PROBABLY THE
EQUIVALENT OF A 30 YEAR CAREER.
ALSO ON THE FRONT LINES
HERE, FIREFIGHTERS FROM STATION
66 JUST UP THE ROAD.
WE HAD HORIZONTAL FLAMES.
SO ONE FLAME IS LIGHTING.
IT'S LIKE HOUSE NEXT TO IT.
THEY SAY THAT FIREFIGHTERS
IN L.A. HAVE BEEN PUSHED THE
LIMIT.
IS PUTTING IT LIGHTLY.
BUT THESE BRAVE MEN AND WOMEN
ENDURED OVER THE LAST TWO WEEKS
PHYSICALLY, EMOTIONALLY AND
MENTALLY IS EVEN HARD FOR A
VETERAN LIKE CAPTAIN RICHARDSON
TO PUT INTO WORDS.
IT FELT LIKE WE WERE AT WAR
AND EXCUSE ME
AND YOU KNOW,
EXHAUSTION IS SOMETHING WE DEAL
WITH.
WE HAVE TO WE JUST IT'S PART OF
THE JOB AND AND WE WE GET
THROUGH THAT JUST FINE.
BUT BUT WHEN YOU GO TO THREE
NIGHTS OF SLEEPING IT KIND OF
STARTS TO CATCH UP.
SHOWING THEM GRATITUDE IS
OPERATION BLESSINGS FIRST ORDER
OF BUSINESS ON THIS DAY.
THEY DELIVERED CARE KITS
INCLUDING EVERYTHING FROM
SUNSCREEN TO WIPES TO HYDRATION
SHOTS.
WE HAD A CHANCE TO PRAY WITH
THE F
EVERYBODY GOT TOGETHER IN A BIG
CIRCLE AND PRAYED OVER THEM
NEXT TO THE FIRE TRUCK AND IT
WAS A SPECIAL MOMENT.
JOINING IN THAT PRAYER.
NFL WIDE RECEIVER ANDRE BUCHELI
OF THE ARIZONA CARDINALS.
I JUST THINK IT'S ALWAYS
IMPORTANT GIVE BACK AND YOU
KNOW IN TIMES OF ADVERSITY AND
HURT IT'S THAT'S THE MOST
IMPORTANT TIME TO GET TO GIVE
BACK.
THESE MUCH NEEDED SUPPLIES
IS JUST ONE MORE WAY OPERATION
BLESSING JOINS THE REST OF THIS
COMMUNITY AND SAYING THANK YOU
TO THESE FIRST RESPONDERS.
I'VE GOT PEOPLE THAT HAVE
LOST THEIR HOME THAT'S THEY'RE
COMING UP AND THANKING US IN
TEARS AND THEY'RE AND THEY'RE
THANKING US AND.
I'M STILL PROCESSING THAT.
IN LOS ANGELES, PAUL CBS
NEWS GORDON FEELING LIKE
THEY'RE AT WAR.
EMOTIONS STILL RUNNING HIGH.
THEY'RE GOING TO BE RUNNING
HIGH UNTIL WE GET SOME RAIN.
IT JUST IT'S JUST WE NEED TO
PRAY FOR RAIN.
PRAY FOR RAIN.
LOS ANGELES, FOR CALIFORNIA.
THESE FIRES KEEP POPPING OFF
AND IT'S ALL BECAUSE EVERYTHING
IS JUST SO DRY.
AND WHEN YOU HEAR A FIREFIGHTER
TALKING ABOUT HORIZONTAL
FLAMES, IT JUST PUTS A CHILL
DOWN YOUR SPINE AS TO THOSE
PEOPLE ARE DEALING WITH.
BUT OPERATION BLESSING IS
THERE AND THAT'S THERE IN YOUR
NAME IF YOU'RE A MEMBER OF THE
700 CLUB.
YOU'RE HELPING US AND YOU'RE
HELPING THE PEOPLE OF LOS
ANGELES.
YOU'RE HELPING FIREFIGHTERS.
WE LIKE TO GO TO THE FIRST
RESPONDERS AND SAY HOW CAN WE
HELP AND SPECIFICALLY HOW CAN
HELP YOU IF YOU WANT TO BE A
PART OF THE RELIEF EFFORT.
ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS CALL US
1-800-700-7000.
SO I WANT TO BE A MEMBER.
I WANT TO BE A PART OF THIS.
WANT TO JOIN THE 700 CLUB?
JUST YESTERDAY WE HAD SOME
AMAZING RESPONSES TO OUR
JANUARY TELETHON HERE FROM
MIAMI, FLORIDA 1000 CLUB MEMBER
GOING TO 5000 DOLLARS THE
FOUNDER OF APACHE JUNCTION,
ARIZONA, NEW MEMBER DONOR
COMING IN AND FOUNDER 5000
DOLLARS.
KNOWLEDGE FILLED TENNESSEE A
2500 CLUB MEMBER GOING ALL THE
WAY TO CHAIRMAN'S CIRCLE 12
THOUSAND.
IT'S WONDERFUL WHAT HAPPENED
WHEN PEOPLE JOIN TOGETHER AND
WHEN DISASTER STRIKE OUR MOTTO
IS WE STRIKE BACK AND WE STRIKE
BACK WITH LOVE AND COMPASSION
PASSION AND VERY TANGIBLE HELP
IN THEIR TIME OF NEED.
A FREE CONSULTATION.
JESSICA I WOULD WAS ALL IN
HER HUSBAND CAN'T HE?
HE WAS IT THE TWO ARE AT ODDS
OVER WHAT TO DO WITH THEIR
MONEY.
CAMP WANTED TO KEEP IT JESSICA
WANTED TO GIVE IT AWAY.
HERE'S HOW A VISIT CHURCH PUT
THIS COUPLE ON THE SAME PAGE
TODAY KEN AND JESSICA ATWOOD
HAVE A HAPPY LIFE WITH THEIR
CHILDREN.
HOWEVER, SOON AFTER THEY
WERE MARRIED JESSICA GAVE HER
LIFE TO CHRIST AFTER THE DEATH
OF HER BROTHER AND THEIR
RELATIONSHIP CHANGED.
AND I THEM CAN I FOUND JESUS
.
I WANT TO BE A CHRISTIAN.
I WANT TO GO TO CHURCH.
I WANT TITHE.
I WANT TO DO IT ALL LIKE I'M
ALL IN LIKE I FOUND JESUS AND
I'VE GOT TO CHANGE.
AND HE WAS JUST SILENT.
YOU KNOW?
I THOUGHT I MARRIED SOMEONE AND
THEN SIX MONTHS AFTER OUR
WEDDING I DIDN'T MARRY THAT
PERSON AND IT WAS A COMPLETELY
DIFFERENT PERSON.
SO IT WAS IT ALL IT ALL
STARTED FROM THAT AND JUST, YOU
KNOW, ROLLED DOWNHILL AFTER
THAT AS BEGAN TO LIVE OUT HER
FAITH.
SHE ALSO DESIRE TO START GIVING
MONEY AWAY.
SHE BEGAN TITHING ON INCOME SHE
RECEIVED BEING AN AUDITOR FOR A
HOSPITALITY COMPANY.
AS SOON AS WE STARTED WE
STARTED HAVING EXTRA MONEY AT
THE END OF EVERY MONTH FINANCES
BECAME EASIER.
ALMOST IMMEDIATELY NINE
YEARS INTO THEIR MARRIAGE THEY
HAD TWO SONS WITH ANOTHER ON
THE WAY AND BETTER PAYING JOBS.
KEN GOT A PROMOTION AND BECAME
A PROJECT FOR A CONSTRUCTION
COMPANY.
AND JESSICA GOT A NEW HIGHER
PAYING JOB FOR A MAJOR AUTO
MANUFACTURER.
KENT RELUCTANTLY AGREED TO
ALLOW JESSICA TO TIDE OFF HIS
INCOME TO HOWEVER AS THEIR
GIVING INCREASED, SO DID HIS
UNHAPPINESS.
I FELT THAT WAS OUR MONEY
AND TO GIVE IT AWAY FOR
SOMETHING I NOT ALL ABOUT YET
IT KIND OF HURT AND IT CREATED
TENSION BETWEEN US.
ONE SUNDAY WHILE WERE AT
THEIR CHURCH SERVICE SHE
NOTICED KEN WAS CRYING.
I PUT MY HEAD DOWN AND I
JUST HEARD GO GET BAPTIZED AND
I WENT TO THE BACK AND I WAS SO
EMOTIONAL THE BACK THE LADY
COULDN'T EVEN UNDERSTAND ME AND
SHE SAID OH SIR, ARE YOU OKAY?
DO YOU NEED ME TO CALL THE
AMBULANCE?
AND I JUST SAID I NEED TO BE
BAPTIZED AND I WAS BAPTIZED
THAT DAY.
I'VE NEVER FELT ANYTHING
LIKE THAT EVER CAME BACK TO ME
AFTER THAT AND HE WAS A CHANGED
MAN.
THE COUPLE BEGAN TOGETHER.
GOD HAS ABSOLUTELY FOR US IN
THE FINANCIAL SPACE AND IN OUR
CAREERS AND HAS GIVEN AND I
BOTH FAVOR AND ABILITY I
BELIEVE TO DO THE THINGS THAT
HE CALLED US TO DO.
TODAY THE ATWOOD'S ARE
UNITED BY THEIR LOVE FOR AND
HAPPILY MARRIED.
THEY LOVE TO GIVE AND CONTINUE
TIE ON ALL THEIR INCOME.
IT'S ALL GOD'S MONEY.
MONEY IS NOTHING.
MONEY DOESN'T BUY HAPPINESS.
IT MAKES YOU HAPPY A MINUTE AND
THEN IT'S GONE THE NEXT MINUTE.
TO ME TITHING IS JUST THE
WAY OF SAYING THANK YOU GOD IS
SO GOOD AND IT'S THE ONE PLACE
IN THE BIBLE THAT HAS A PROMISE
IF YOU BRING YOUR YOU KNOW,
TIES TO THE STOREHOUSE THAT
HE'LL OPEN THE GATES OF HEAVEN
LIKE HE WILL PROVIDE.
HE IS OUR PROVIDER YOU CAN'T
GIVE GOD.
JESSICA LEARNED THE SECRET
CAN'T GOT THE REVELATION.
AND YOU CAN GET IT TOO.
HERE'S THE PRINCIPAL.
THESE ARE THE WORDS OF JESUS IT
COMES FROM LUKE CHAPTER SIX
GIVE AND IT WILL BE GIVEN TO
YOU A GOOD MEASURE PRESSED
DOWN, SHAKEN TOGETHER AND
RUNNING WILL BE POURED INTO
YOUR LAP.
FOR WITH THE MEASURE YOU IT
WILL BE MEASURED TO YOU.
NOW A LOT OF CRITICISM IS
AROUND THE WORLD TODAY ABOUT
PROSPERITY AND ALL OF THAT.
PLEASE RESIST THAT IT'S NOT
PROSPERITY GOSPEL.
IT'S NOT SOME KIND OF GET
RICH QUICK SCHEME.
IT'S CERTAINLY NOT YOU KNOW, IF
YOU HAVE THE THINGS OF THIS
WORLD, YOU KNOW, SOMEHOW OR
OTHER YOU'RE IN BETTER FAITH
WITH GOD.
IT'S NOT ANY OF THAT.
WHAT IS GOD LOOKING FOR?
HE IS LOOKING FOR YOUR HEART
AND PART OF YOUR HEART NEEDS TO
MIRROR THE GOSPEL FOR GOD SO
LOVED THE WORLD THAT HE GAVE.
AND WHEN YOU WHEN YOU GET THAT
AND WHEN YOU UNDERSTAND FINALLY
AND YOU SAY YES, I WANT TO BE
ALL IN WITH GOD I WANT TO BE A
CHEERFUL I WANT TO BE A
GENEROUS LOVING GIVER.
WHEN YOU DO THAT WELL THEN
THINGS CAN HAPPEN.
YOU SAW WHAT HAPPENED WITH
JESSICA AND KENT.
IT'LL HAPPEN TO YOU IF YOU JUST
FOLLOW THE SAME PRINCIPLES AND
THE WORDS OF JESUS ARE SO TRUE.
SIKI FIRST THE KINGDOM OF GOD
HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS AND THEN ALL
THESE OTHER THINGS WILL BE
ADDED TO YOU.
WELL, $70,000 OF DEBT.
JERRY SPINNING ON A HAMSTER
WHEEL WORKING A SECOND JOB AND
NOT EVEN MAKING A DENT IN HIS
DEBT.
HIS WIFE REBECCA WAS
COMPLETELY OVERWHELMED.
WELL, THEN THE COUPLE
DECIDED PUT GOD FIRST IN THEIR
LIVES BY TITHING BEFORE PAYING
ANYTHING ELSE.
THE RESULT?
WELL, TODAY THEY'RE DEBT FREE.
RETIRED AND ABLE TO GIVE AWAY
MORE MONEY THAN EVER JERRY AND
REBECCA CASCO FROM APPLE VALLEY
CALIFORNIA HAVE A COMFORTABLE
FILLED WITH FUN AND FAMILY.
HOWEVER, LIFE WASN'T ALWAYS
GOOD AS A SECOND MARRIAGE FOR
BOTH.
THEY EACH TWO KIDS INTO THE
UNION.
THE FAMILY EXPENSES QUICKLY
PILED UP AND CREDIT CARDS
SEEMED LIKE THE BEST SOLUTION.
15 YEARS INTO THEIR MARRIAGE,
JERRY AND REBECCA FOUND
THEMSELVES OVER $70,000 IN
DEBT.
YOU'RE ON THAT HAMSTER.
WILL YOU JUST GO?
OKAY.
WHAT ELSE CAN I DO TO BACKFILL
THAT HOLE THAT I CREATED AND
YOU KNOW I WOULD WORK A SECOND
JOB ON THE WEEKEND.
YOU KNOW, BUT THE MORE YOU YOUR
WORK SEEMS LIKE YOU TRY TO
BREAK EVEN OR GET THE EVEN AND
IT WAS IT WAS PRETTY TOUGH.
IF I DOUBLE THE PAYMENT OR
TRIPLE THE IT WAS STILL GOING
TO TAKE YOU KNOW TEN, 1520
YEARS TO PAY THIS THIS BALANCE
OFF.
THE AMOUNT OF DEBT WAS
GROWING AND IT WAS OVERWHELMING
TO HOW MUCH WE REALLY COULD PAY
.
AS CHRISTIANS JERRY AND REBECCA
KNEW THAT GIVING TO THE CHURCH
BE A PART OF THEIR BUDGET.
HOWEVER, IT USUALLY CAME AFTER
THE BILLS IF AT ALL IT WAS MORE
OF AN AFTERTHOUGHT THAT IF
THERE WAS MONEY LEFT OVER THEN
WE PROBABLY SHOULD DO THAT WITH
THE MOUNTING DEBT THAT WAS
BEING ACCRUED AND ACQUIRED.
YOU DIDN'T SEE A LIGHT AT
THE END OF THE TUNNEL.
IT CREATED A LOT OF STRESS AND
A LOT OF ANXIETY.
KNOWING GOD WANTED THEM TO
BE FREE FROM FINANCIAL STRESS.
JERRY AND REBECCA ENROLLED IN A
FINANCIAL COURSE AT THEIR
CHURCH IN 2003.
WE ARE HOPING TO FIND SOME OF
THOSE NUGGETS IF YOU WILL, OR
KEYS TO TO FREE YOURSELF FROM
THAT THE BONDS OF BEING IN DEBT
.
ONE KEY THEY LEARNED WAS TO PUT
GOD FIRST AND TITHE PAYING
ANYTHING ELSE.
IT'S A TRUST FACTOR
OBEDIENCE, IT'S FAITH.
IT'S ALL OF THOSE THINGS BOUND
UP TOGETHER TO KNOW THAT OKAY,
I DON'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT
THIS.
I DO MY AND THEN GOD DOES THE
REST.
SO THEY MADE TITHING FIRST A
PRIORITY RIGHT AWAY THE COSTCOS
STARTED TO SEE THEIR MONEY GO
FURTHER AND SOON THEY WERE
PAYING EXTRA TOWARDS DEBT.
THE MONEY DID MATERIALIZE
AND SOMETIMES AGAIN WE JUST HAD
NO IDEA HOW OR WHY IT
MATERIALIZED BUT IT DID.
OVER THE NEXT FEW YEARS THEY
EVEN INCREASED THEIR GIVING AS
THEY SAW GOD'S FAITHFULNESS
CARRY THEM THROUGH TOUGH
ECONOMIC TIMES.
IT SEEMED LIKE THE MORE
WOULD THE MORE THE LORD WOULD
BLESS.
THE COSTCOS ABLE TO PAY OFF
THEIR DEBT AND ALONG THE WAY
THEY ALSO HELPED OTHER FAMILY
MEMBERS WITH FINANCIAL ISSUES.
TODAY THEY ARE SEMI-RETIRED YET
GIVING MORE THAN THEY DID WHEN
THEY BOTH WERE WORKING FULL
TIME.
IT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE THAT
WE WERE ABLE TO GIVE MORE THAN
BEING A RETIRED STATE THAN WE
EVER DID BEFORE WHEN WE WERE
MAKING THESE LARGER
PROFESSIONAL.
IT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE WITH
ANYTHING OUT BUT IT STILL IS
HOW GOD.
OVER THE YEARS JERRY AND
REBECCA HAVE ENJOYED THE 700
CLUB AND IN 2018 THEY BECAME
700 CLUB PARTNERS EXCITED TO
SEE THEIR MONEY GO TOWARDS
PEOPLE IN NEED.
WHEN THERE'S A DISASTER AND
WE SEE THE RESPONSE THAT
CBN HAS OR THE OPPORTUNITY TO
PARTNER WITH THEM FINANCIALLY
WITHOUT IT IMMEDIATELY STIRS IN
MY HEART WHO ARE THEY'RE
HELPING?
IT'S THE ARMS AND HANDS OF
CHRIST REACHING OUT IN A WAY
THAT I CAN'T REACH.
IT'S HARD TO COMPREHEND.
BUT THE MORE YOU TRUST IN
THE LORD THE MORE YOU
EXPERIENCE HIS LOVE AND
BLESSINGS.
TITHING HAS ALWAYS BEEN A
CHALLENGE BECAUSE AGAIN DOESN'T
MAKE SENSE.
JUST TRUST INTO IT IS THE
WORD FROM PROVERBS HONOR THE
LORD WITH YOUR POSSESSIONS AND
WITH THE FIRST FRUITS OF ALL
YOUR INCREASE SO YOUR BARNS
WILL BE FILLED WITH PLENTY AND
YOUR VATS WILL OVERFLOW WITH
NEW WINE.
PRINCIPLE BEGINS WITH HONOR
LORD YOUR GIVING HONORS HIM
BECAUSE YOU ARE PROVING TO
YOURSELF AND TO YOUR OWN HEART
THAT YOU'RE PUTTING GOD FIRST.
YOU'RE PUTTING HIS KINGDOM
FIRST AND YOU'RE DOING SO VERY
TANGIBLE.
HE PROVED ME NOW AND SAYS THE
LORD OF HOUSE IF I WILL NOT
OPEN FOR YOU THE WINDOWS OF
HEAVEN THE ONLY TIME WE GET THE
TEST GOD THE ONLY TIME WE GET
TO PROVE IS IN OUR TIES AND
OFFERINGS.

GORDON WELL AFTER WANDA'S
MARRIAGE FELL APART SHE HAD
LITTLE LEFT IN THE BANK YET
WANDA HAD A PLAN TRUST GOD WITH
HER FIRST FRUITS AND HERE'S HOW
HE ANSWERED HER PRAYERS.
I STARTED TITHING AS A LITTLE
GIRL.
IN FACT I CAN REMEMBER FOR THAT
I GUESS I GOT A DOLLAR FOR A
BIRTHDAY GIFT AND IT WAS DIME.
I PUT IT IN THE ENVELOPE AND I
WAS SO PROUD TO GIVE THAT TO
THE LORD.
THAT FIRST DIME WAS THE START
OF A LIFETIME OF FAITHFULNESS
FOR WANDA ROBERTS AND HER TRUST
IN GOD'S PROVISION CARRIED HER
THROUGH SOME TOUGH FINANCIAL
TIMES.
THE WORDS SAYS I CAN DO ALL
THINGS THE CHRIST WHO GIVES ME
STRENGTH THAT KEEPS ME GOING
MOST DAYS I KNOW MY LIMITATIONS
FINANCIALLY BUT IN HIM IT
SOMEHOW IT'S ENOUGH.
WHEN WANDA'S MARRIAGE OF 17
YEARS ENDED IN 2018, NOT ONLY
WAS SHE DEVASTATED AT THE LOSS,
SHE WAS ALSO NOT SURE HOW SHE'D
COPE FINANCIALLY WITH ONLY
$9,000 IN THE BANK AND HER
SECRETARY JOB AT AN ASSISTED
LIVING FACILITY TO SUSTAIN HER.
WANDA OUT TO GOD TO PROVIDE GOD
BEGIN TO BLESS ME FINANCIALLY
IN LITTLE THAT WERE SO TOTALLY
UNEXPECTED I MEAN THERE WERE
THERE WERE TIMES THAT THINGS
WOULD GET REALLY TIGHT YEAH NO
MATTER HOW TIGHT THINGS GOT
WANDA WOULD TIE THE FIRST AND
PAY HER BILLS AFTER HE SAID
GIVE YOUR FRUITS NOT YOUR LAST
DRIBBLING OF YOUR MONEY BUT
YOUR FIRST FRUITS SO I CAN
BLESS THE 90% AND GOD DID JUST
THAT FOR WANDA LIKE WHEN SHE
GOT A REFUND CHECK OVER $10,000
IN THE MAIL FROM HER BANK THAT
CAME OUT OF THE BLUE.
I FELT OVERWHELMED WITH WHEN
THAT CHECK CAME IN THE MAIL.
I JUST COULDN'T BELIEVE MY EYES
.
ALL I COULD DO WAS THANK HIM
AFTER TWO LEAN YEARS A FRIEND
OFFERED WANDA A BETTER POSITION
AT A DIFFERENT ASSISTED LIVING
FACILITY WITH AN 18% SALARY
INCREASE.
I WAS COMPLETELY AMAZED AT WHAT
WAS DOING BY NOW WANDA WAS
FINANCIALLY STABLE SO IN
ADDITION TO TITHING SHE DECIDED
TO JOIN CBN A MINISTRY SHE HAS
ENJOYED FOR MANY YEARS.
CB IN HAS BEEN A LIGHTHOUSE
FOR ME.
I LOVE TO HEAR CBN NEWS I TURN
THAT ON IN THE MORNING.
ONE OF THE FIRST PROGRAMS I
WATCH IN ADDITION TO CBN NEWS,
WANDA ENJOYS WATCHING THE
INCREDIBLE IMPACT CBN HAS ALL
AROUND THE WORLD.
SHE FEELS PROUD TO BE A PART
OF SUCH A DYNAMIC MINISTRY.
CBN IS LIKE JOHNNY ON THE
SPOT THEY ARE ONE OF THE FIRST
RESPONDERS TO A CRISIS AND THEN
THE HOME FRONT WITH THE
VETERANS.
OH MY GOSH I LOVE WHAT THEY DO
FOR THE MILITARY FAMILIES I
SAID LORD I HAVE TO GIVE
BECAUSE I FEEL LIKE CBN ARE MY
HANDS EXTENDED IN 2021 WANDA
EARNED ANOTHER PROMOTION WITH A
35% PAY RAISE WHICH SHE
ATTRIBUTES TO HER FAITHFULNESS
OVER THE YEARS OF PUTTING GOD
FIRST WHEN IT CAME TO HER
MONEY.
HE HAS NEVER FAILED.
HE'S BEEN ONLY GOOD TO ME
AND TITHING IS JUST TO OPEN HIS
WINDOW OF HEAVEN TO POUR IS
THAT MORE BLESSINGS THAN WE
COULD EVER IN OUR HANDS TODAY
WANDA IS SEMI-RETIRED YET SHE
STILL CONTINUES DIVE AND
SUPPORT CBN WHILE ENCOURAGING
OTHERS TO TRUST
FINANCES TOO.
GOD IS REAL AND HE LOVES SHE
AND HE'LL TAKE CARE OF YOU.
GOD IS FAITHFUL AND HE'LL
NEVER YOU ALONE.
WHAT A WONDERFUL TESTIMONY
OF WANDA.
HERE'S A LIFETIME OF GIVING AND
YOU SEE THE RESULT HERE IT IS
FROM MALACHI IT'S A WONDERFUL
PROMISE BRING ALL THE TIES INTO
THE STOREHOUSE THAT THERE MAY
BE FOOD IN MY HOUSE AND PROVE
ME NOW AND THIS AS THE LORD OF
HOSTS EVOLVE OR NOT OPEN FOR
YOU THE WINDOWS OF HEAVEN POUR
OUT A BLESSING THAT THERE WILL
NOT BE ROOM ENOUGH TO RECEIVE
IT FOR WANDA?
YES.
DID SHE EXPERIENCE UPS AND
DOWNS IN THIS LIFE SHE SURE
DID.
BUT THROUGH IT ALL SHE WAS
FAITHFUL.
SO AS A CHILD GETTING A DOLLAR
AS A BIRTHDAY GIFT SHE $0.10
AND SHE'S SO WONDERFULLY
PLEASED WITH THAT TO SAY YES,
I'M DOING WHAT GOD HAS ASKED ME
TO DO AND HERE SHE IS YEARS
LATER AND SHE STILL WITH IT.
YOU CAN HAVE THAT SAME LIFE
THE KNOWLEDGE, THE SECURE
KNOWLEDGE THAT GOD HAS HER
FUTURE.
HE IS YOUR PROVIDER.
HE IS OPENING WINDOWS AND
HAVING WAYS FOR YOU TO TO
SUCCEED AND HAVE A WONDERFUL
LIFE.
HE WANTS THAT FOR YOU JESUS
THAT YOU MIGHT HAVE LIFE AND

THROUGH THE YEARS THE LILIES

CONTRACT WORK.
WHEN I MARRIED DAVID HE WAS
STARTING FROM SCRATCH.
IT WAS HUMBLING BECAUSE WE HAD
NO EXTRA MONEY IT WAS DIFFICULT
REGARDLESS THEIR FINANCIAL
SITUATION THEY'VE ALWAYS BEEN
TITHES AND GIVERS.
WE'RE TAUGHT IN THE SCRIPTURES
TO TITHE TO GIVE 10%.
THAT'S JUST BARE.
WE USUALLY WILL EXCEED TIES IN
OUR GIVING AND SOMETIMES GOING

GENEROUSLY.
IT SEEMS TO ME THE MORE YOU
GIVE THE MORE DOES BLESS WE
DIDN'T GO NEEDING ANYTHING
AFTER WE GAVE DERRYLIN AND I

ME PEACE OF MIND AND GREAT
SATISFACTION TODAY.
DANY IS MOVING FORWARD IN HIS
CAREER BY HELPING THOSE IN NEED

THREE TO ADOPT THEM FROM
UKRAINE AND THAT CAME ORPHANS
PROMISE AND I'M SO GLAD SHE
SAID YES TO IT AND I FINALLY
HAD TO GET TO THE POINT WHERE I
AS SHE WENT ON INTERNATIONAL

OF THEM HOME WITH YOU.
YOU KNOW, LET'S LET'S PROVIDE
RELIEF FOR THEM RIGHT IN THEIR
OWN COUNTRY SO SHE RELUCTANTLY
AGREED TO THAT.
BUT ISN'T IT WONDERFUL WHEN
YOU JUST SAY TO GOD THE
WONDERFUL THINGS THAT CAN
HAPPEN?
ABRAHAM AMEN AND GOD AND IT WAS
A COUNTED TO HIM FOR
RIGHTEOUSNESS WHEN YOU JUST SAY
LORD BEING UNTO ME ACCORDING TO
YOUR WORD YES AND A MAN I WANT
THAT I WANT TO DO IT YOUR WAY.
I WANT TO BE PART OF YOUR PLAN.
IT'S INCREDIBLE WHAT HAPPEN
WELL, I'VE GOT PALS, FAMILY
PRIDE, THE BUDDHA AND THEY
ASKED BUDDHA FOR HEALING AND
NOTHING HAPPENED.
THEN THIS FAMILY WATCH AN
EPISODE OF SUPERBOOK AND THEY
BEGAN PRAYING TO JESUS FOR AS
LONG AS HE COULD REMEMBER TEN
YEAR OLD ANG PAO STRUGGLED WITH
CONGESTION THAT BLOCKED HIS
NOSE AND EARS.
I TOOK MEDICINE BUT THEY ALWAYS
HAD THE STUFFY NOSE WATER IN MY
EARS.
IT WAS PAINFUL TO AT SCHOOL I
COULDN'T HEAR THE TEACHER
CLEARLY SO MY GRADES ARE BAD.
A HEARING TEST CONFIRMED
THAT ANG PAO HAD SIGNIFICANT
HEARING LOSS BECAUSE OF FLUID
IN HIS MIDDLE.
HIS DOCTOR RECOMMENDED SURGERY
TO FIX THE PROBLEM I DIDN'T
WANT MY SON TO BE IN PAIN AND
UNABLE HEAR WE PRAYED TO BUDDHA
TO HEAL HIM BUT NOTHING.
THEN HONG KONG LEARNED ABOUT
AN EVENT FEATURING THE CBN'S
SUPERBOOK EPISODE THE FIRST
CHRISTMAS HE ASKED HIS PARENTS
TO TAKE HIM WHEN THEY WATCHED
SUPERBOOK STORY I FELT GOD'S
LOVE FOR US OTHER GODS DEMAND
WORSHIP AND OFFERINGS AND GIVE
US NOTHING AT THE END OF THE
SUPERBOOK PROGRAM THE ENTIRE
FAMILY TO BECOME CHRISTIANS.
I USED TO THINK THAT IF I
SINNED AND DIED I WOULD BECOME
AN EVIL SPIRIT BUT SUPERBOOK
TAUGHT ME THAT WHEN WE CONFESS
OUR SINS GOD FORGIVES US.
SO I PRAYED AND ASKED JESUS TO
BE MY SAVIOR.
THE FAMILY WENT TO CHURCH
EVERY WEEK AND PAUL'S PARENTS
THEIR SON TO WATCH OTHER
SUPERBOOK EPISODES.
WHERE THEY WATCHED THE MIRACLES
OF JESUS.
I SAW COME STORMS HEAL THE
SICK AND MAKE MAN WALK.
I WAS CONFIDENT THAT HE
COULD HEAL ME.
WHEN WE GOT HOME WE PRAYED THAT
GOD HEALER SON SO THAT HE COULD
HEAR CLEARLY AGAIN.
THE DAY THAT ANG PAO WAS
SUPPOSED TO UNDERGO SURGERY ON
HIS EARS, THE DOCTOR DID
ANOTHER HEARING TEST.
THE DOCTOR WAS AMAZED.
SHE SAID MY SON NEED SURGERY
ANYMORE AND WONDERED HOW HE HAD
RECOVERED FROM HIS HEARING
LOSS.
GOD ANSWERED OUR PRAYERS.
I WAS SO EXCITED THAT THEY
JUMPED AROUND THE HOSPITAL.
ANG PAO IS NOW DOING WELL IN
SCHOOL AND HIS PARENTS ARE
TRAINING TO BECOME SUNDAY
SCHOOL TEACHERS.
MY WIFE AND I BEEN DEEPLY
TOUCHED BY THE LOVE OF GOD
THROUGH THE SUPER BOOK STORIES
