A Message To The Hoarders

Share And Live

Hoard And Die

     Currently in America we are seeing many hoarders clearing the shelves in grocery stores of hand sanitizers, bread, water, and toilet paper. These hoarders are storing up years worth of supplies selfishly in their basements, living in fear because of the coronavirus. To all these hoarders I give the following warning from Luke 12:15 that says Take heed, and beware of covetousness; for a man's life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth. 

     Take time to read what happened to a hoarder who Jesus called a fool that died. Luke 12:16 tells us that the ground of a certain rich man brought forth plentifully. And he thought within himself saying What shall I do because I have no room where to bestow my fruits? And he said this will I do; I will pull down my barns and build greater; and there will I bestow all my fruits and my goods. And I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast much goods laid up for many years; take thine ease, eat, drink, and be merry. But God said unto him, Thou fool, this night thy soul shall be required of thee; then whose shall those things be, which thou hast provided. This hoarding fool who worked for years to store his food died in one night and lost everything. This shows us that it is better to share than hoard. Share and live; hoard and die.

     Instead of being a hoarder obey Luke 6:38 and be blessed; 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. And note the blessed promise of Ecclesiastes 11:1 that says Cast thy bread upon the waters; for thou shalt find it after many days. Always share and live instead of hoarding and dying.

Nabal Hoarded And Died

Abigail Shared And Lived

     A fool named Nabal was married to a blessed woman named Abigail. Nabal was very rich and refused to provide food for David and his soldiers. Nabal eventually got drunk at a feast and died because he was a hoarder. But his wife Abigail was a blessed woman who shared her food with David to avoid death from David and his soldiers. Abigail shared her food with David and his soldiers and lived. Abigail offered David and his army 200 loaves of bread (wow I wish Abigail could visit some Walmarts in America and share 200 loaves of bread teaching people how to share and live), five sheep ready dressed, five measures of parched corn, 100 clusters of raisins, and 200 cakes of figs. Because of Abigail's kindness, Abigail was blessed with the honor of becoming King David's wife.

     Everyone I encourage you to be like Abigail to defeat the depression from coronavirus by sharing and living. Remember the wise advice from Matthew 16:25 that says For whosoever will save his life shall lose it; and whosoever will lose his life for my sake (Jesus' sake) shall find it. What does it profit  a man if he gains the whole world and loses his soul. We brought nothing into this world and it is certain we can take nothing out of this world. Remember the blessing you will receive if you obey Proverbs 19:17; He that hath pity upon the poor lendeth unto the Lord (note you don't have to give money to the poor, just consider the poor and be kind and note the payoff) and that which he hath given will he pay him again. 

     Remember the parable where a man took his one talent and became a hoarder by hiding the talent in the ground. This man was a fearful hoarder like many people today in America hoarding hand sanitizers, bread, water, and toilet paper. Matthew 25:25 tells us that this hoarder said he was afraid living in fear, instead of rejoicing living in faith, and he went and hid his one talent in the earth. Jesus punished this man and took away his talent and gave it to the person that shared his talents. Note the lesson that Jesus teaches us at Matthew 25:29; For unto every one that hath (those that are not selfish and share with the poor) shall be given and he shall have abundance; but from him that hath not (the hoarders that lose everything for being selfish and stingy) shall be taken away even that which he hath. 

The Widow Of Zarephath Shared And Lived

     My favorite example of a person that shared and lived in the bible is the widow of Zarephath. The prophet Elijah was hungry and asked the widow of Zarephath for her last morsel of bread and a little water in a vessel. This blessed widow woman gave her last piece of bread and her last drop of water to the man of God. 

     Read how God honored this widow woman for sharing her last meal with Elijah. 1 Kings 17:14 tells us that her barrel of meal (bread supply) did not waste during the famine and her cruse of oil (water supply) never failed until the day that the Lord sent rain upon the earth. In other words, because this widow woman shared her food, God created food out of nowhere for her and always provided for her needs. 

     Learn a lesson from this widow woman; Share your food and supplies with needy people to overcome the depression of coronavirus. Like the widow woman from Zarephath, God will create food out of nowhere for you and keep you blessed and alive where no plague of coronavirus will ever harm you. Brother Bob for years has blessed untold numbers of poor people with free meals everywhere at Cracker Barrels, Longhorn Steakhouse, and Goodwins family restaurant. The other day when the shelves in the grocery store had no peanut butter, Jesus showed Brother Bob one can of peanut butter that was hidden between two shelves and blessed him. I left Walmart that day happy and shouting the victory with my can of Jif peanut butter. 

     I pray in Jesus name, that this little bible study will change hoarders into sharers that bless poor people with bread, water, and frozen foods. Jesus told us at Matthew 25:40 Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me. Remember whatever you give to a poor needy person, you give to Jesus. Therefore, don't give poor people leftovers; give them the best food and clothes that you own. 

     Right now in America the restaurants only provide take out orders. Take a friend that is depressed about coronavirus to Longhorn Restaurant and buy them a blessed meal of two grilled chicken breasts with a baked potato and a fresh salad instead of giving them leftovers that sat in your refrigerator for two weeks. Witness Jesus everywhere to everyone. Tell people to get saved because Jesus can give them peace to overcome this coronavirus. Tell people to repent, stop sinning, confess Jesus to be their God, and believe that Jesus died for them on the cross, was buried, and rose again. Let them know John 16:33; In the world is tribulation, with Jesus there is peace; tell them to be encouraged because with Jesus they will overcome this world. 

     I pray in Jesus name that this little bible study blesses multitudes all over this earth with great peace and strength. Feel free to email Brother Bob anytime at rz9tlm@gmail.com or write to Brother Bob Malkin, 2233 Pinetree Lane, Apt. N., Reynoldsburg, Ohio 43068. (614) 604-7133. Till we all meet again soon to lift up our Lord Jesus, everyone have a blessed day in Jesus name. 

Comforting And Encouraging Words To Overcome Coronavirus

America And Nations Everywhere Repent Like Nineveh

So Coronavirus Can Disappear

     I pray in Jesus name that America and nations everywhere can respond to trouble like Nineveh. When Nineveh heard Jonah preach about God's judgment to overthrow Nineveh because of their sin, everyone (rich and poor and even the king of Nineveh) cried mightily to God and repented of their sins in sackcloth and ashes. The king of Nineveh proclaimed the following order to all the people of Nineveh; the king ordered all the people to turn from their wicked ways, fast, and cry mightily for forgiveness from God. The result was that God removed any judgment and plague in Nineveh and blessed all the people in Nineveh with peace and life. 

     I pray in Jesus name that President Trump and all the Governors of America can learn a lesson from the people of Nineveh. Lord Jesus grant boldness to the Governors in America and President Trump to be like the king of Nineveh and his nobles and order the people of their states to PRAY, REPENT, AND TURN FROM THEIR WICKED WAYS so the plague of  coronavirus can disappear. Coronavirus is God''s judgment against the sins of same sex marriage, transgenderism, abortion, legalization of marijuana, and removal of prayer from schools. Politicians don't wait too long to make this order because many people are dying and only God can stop this plague when people everywhere pray, repent, stop sinning and have a revival in America where everyone cries mightily to our Lord Jesus for mercy. Politicians, instead of being concerned about your reelection by using man made methods to remove coronavirus to please man, be bold, fear God, and tell everyone to pray, repent, and stop sinning before many people die needlessly from this plague. It's a fearful thing to fall into the hands of a living God.

     Alright, learn a lesson from the people of Nineveh on how to remove a plague like coronavirus. Read carefully Jonah 3:4 that says So the people of Nineveh believed God and proclaimed a fast and put on sackcloth from the greatest of them even to the least of them (Wow everyone the rich, poor, the king and all the nobles prayed and repented). (President Trump and Vice President Pence take notes on this next verse) For word came unto the king of Nineveh and he arose from his throne and he laid his robe from him and covered him with sackcloth and sat in ashes. And he caused it to be proclaimed and published through Nineveh by the decree of the king and his nobles (in America the decree would be from the President and the Governors) saying Let neither man nor beast, herd nor flock taste any thing, let them not feed, nor drink water. But let man and beast be covered with sackcloth and cry mightily unto God. Yea let them turn everyone from his evil way and from the violence that is in their hands. 

     Jonah 3:9 goes on to say Who can tell if God will turn and repent, and turn away from his fierce anger, that we perish not. And God saw their works that they turned from their evil way and God repented of the evil that He had said that He would do unto them, and He did it not. America and nations everywhere be like Nineveh and cry mightily for forgiveness from God for your sins, pray, and repent and God will remove the coronavirus plague before many people die.

     The bible tells us that the people in Nineveh will rise in judgment and condemn this generation for their sins because they repented at the preaching of Jonah and a greater prophet named Jesus has been rejected by this modern world. Matthew 12:41 tells us The men of Nineveh shall rise in judgment with this generation and shall condemn it because they repented at the preaching of Jonas (Jonah), and behold a greater than Jonas (Jesus) is here. 

Read The Following Scriptures To Have Peace

And Overcome The Fear Of Coronavirus

     To overcome the fear of coronavirus, say the following scriptures. Say 2 Timothy 1:7 For God hath not given us the spirit of fear, but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. Say 1 John 4:18 There is no fear in love, but perfect love (Jesus in me) casteth out fear. Right now get saved to overcome the fear of coronavirus; Repent, stop sinning, confess everywhere that Jesus is God, and believe in your heart that Jesus died for your sins on the cross, was buried, and rose again. 

Take Off Your Masks And Gloves

Get Under The Blood Of Jesus

     Friends everywhere, the only way to be protected from coronavirus is to daily be under the blood of Jesus by faith. Say daily in the name of Jesus send God's angels to cover me, my home, and my possessions in the blood of Jesus. Look to Jesus and the cross every day saying I am crucified with Christ and covered by the blood of Jesus to overcome the fear of coronavirus. Be like Moses and the children of God who placed the blood of the Lamb Jesus on their doors to prevent the death angel in Egypt from killing them. Like Moses and the children of God, tell the coronavirus plague every day I'm covered by the blood of Jesus and you must pass over me. Like the days of Egypt, you will hear that people will be dying around you, but the coronavirus plague will pass over you and not come nigh your dwelling or anywhere near you if you are under the blood of Jesus by faith.

     And remember don't be afraid of coronavirus because Jesus is always with you if you are saved. Jesus is perfect love and casteth away all fear. Jesus promised us at Matthew 28:20 Lo I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen. And Jesus told us at Hebrews 13:5 I will never leave thee nor forsake thee; So that we may boldly say, The Lord is my helper and I will not fear what man shall do unto me.    

     Remember Jesus told us how to react to coronavirus. Jesus said at John 14:1 and John 14:18 Let not your heart be troubled; Ye believe in God, believe also in me. I will not leave you comfortless; I will come to you. Hallelujah, I'm glad Jesus keeps making house calls today. Instead of having fear about coronavirus, have faith and start witnessing Jesus everywhere to give people hope to live and overcome coronavirus. The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life and he that winneth souls is wise. Go ye into the highways and hedges and compel them to come in that my house may be full.

Pastors Keep Your Churches Open To Overcome Coronavirus

     Herod told Jesus to stop preaching and close the churches of his day. Herod threatened to kill Jesus if He kept preaching and having church. The Pharisees proclaimed Herod's threat to Jesus at Luke 13:31 which says The same day there came certain of the Pharisees saying unto Him (Jesus), Get thee out and depart hence, for Herod will kill thee. Notice how Jesus responded to Herod at Luke 13:32 saying Go ye and tell that fox (Herod) Behold I cast out devils, and I do cures today, and tomorrow, and the third day I shall be perfected. In other words, Jesus told Herod, you can threaten me with death but I'm still gonna keep preaching and keep the church of my day open for everyone. 

     Jesus told us at Hebrews 10:25 Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as ye see the day approaching. Friends the only safe place to go during this coronavirus plague is to the church. I know we need to respect and obey our leaders but when they make ungodly laws and try to stop church attendance, God's Word is greater and we must keep the churches open. Jesus bless Governor Mike DeWine of Ohio who is allowing all the churches of Ohio to stay open. Unfortunately other State Governors do not respect the people's first amendment rights and have suggested closing churches. 

     Pastors everywhere be like Daniel when you are faced with an ungodly order to close your church. The politicians of Daniel's day said that it was against the law to pray. Notice Daniel's response to this wicked law at Daniel 6:10 Now when Daniel knew that the writing was signed (to punish people praying by throwing them into the lion's den) he went into his house and his windows being open in his chamber toward Jerusalem, he kneeled upon his knees three times a day and prayed and gave thanks before his God, as he did aforetime. Like Daniel don't stop having church pastors everywhere and like Daniel God will deliver you from all trouble.

     Just a couple more scriptures to help you overcome the fear of coronavirus. Say John 16:33 where Jesus said These things have I spoken unto you, that ye might have peace; in the world ye shall have tribulation; but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world. Saints don't worry about what happens around you during this coronavirus plague. Just tell the devil; I'm saved and I'm going up; I'm not going down. Say the blessed promise from 2 Timothy 1:12 For the which cause I also suffer these things; nevertheless I am not ashamed for I know whom I have believed and am persuaded that He is able to keep that which I have committed unto Him against that day.

Sing The Song I Know Who Holds Tomorrow By Alison Krauss

To Have Peace And Overcome The Fear Of Coronavirus

     Another way to have peace and overcome the fear of coronavirus is to sing blessed hymns and praise our Lord Jesus. Ephesians 5:19 tells us speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord, Just left click the following link from youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B3rIzgXJBX0 and sing the blessed words of the song I Know Who Holds Tomorrow listed above with Alison Krauss to have peace and overcome the fear of coronavirus in Jesus name. Jesus bless you all.

     I pray in Jesus name people will take heed to the message in this bible study to have peace and overcome the fear of coronavirus.

Examples Of How Gospel Tracts With God's Word Saved Sinners

Distribute Gospel Tracts And God's Word Everywhere

To Save Lost Sinners All Over This Earth

     Today we look at how God's Word and Gospel Tracts can save multitudes of lost sinners all over this earth. Isaiah 55:11 says So shall my Word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it. Gospel tracts containing God's Word can reach lost sinners and save people from going to hell. Many people have been saved by reading gospel tracts left at laundromats, hospital waiting rooms, Walmart rest rooms, Cracker Barrels, and grocery stores. God's Word is powerful and can save anyone anywhere.

     Matthew 24:35 tells us Heaven and earth shall pass away but my words shall not pass away. Gospel tracts with God's Word can change a sinner's life who reads them. God's Word shall not pass away and blesses and prospers any reader.  Just leave gospel tracts everywhere for anyone to read. When you eat at a restaurant give the waiter or waitress a gospel tract with your tip. And don't be a cheapskate (leave a blessed tip with the gospel tract). Remember if a person reads a gospel tract and gets saved, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner that repenteth (Luke 15:10). In other words Jesus rejoices when one sinner repents and gets saved. I've never met a person that regretted getting Jesus in their life.

Examples Of How Gospel Tracts With God's Word Saved Sinners

1) A Diver's Surprise

     Many years ago, a scuba diver in Sydney, Australia was visited by a friend. While entering the diver's house, the friend noticed an oyster shell displayed on the mantel of a fireplace. Inside the oyster shell was a folded piece of wrinkled paper. After the friend asked the diver about the oyster shell and the wrinkled paper, the diver explained the following story.

     One day while I was diving off the coast of Australia a strange sight caught my attention. There on a rock was this oyster shell with a piece of paper sticking out of it. To my surprise, the words were still visible on the paper. After I detached the paper and held it up to my goggles to get a better view, I discovered that the paper was a gospel tract.

     I wondered how it could have gotten there-at the bottom of the ocean, sitting in an oyster shell, perched on a rock-basically on display waiting for me to find it. Then the thought flashed through my mind that God had sent it as a message to my soul and there in the ocean's depths, I paused to read the entire gospel tract. 

     The diver went on to tell his friend how the paper contained the story of the cross of Jesus Christ where Jesus the Son of God died for guilty sinners like you and me. It told of the full and free salvation available to all who will repent and turn to God. He related how his heart was affected by the Lord's message of salvation coming to him in such a strange and unexpected way. Right there, far below the ocean's surface, he confessed his sin to a holy God, and trusted Jesus Christ who died for him on the cross, was buried, and rose again. By believing the gospel the diver was saved.

     While this diver was in the ocean's depths he became a repentant converted and sin forgiven man. A gospel tract in an oyster's mouth at the bottom of the ocean led to this diver's salvation. After the diver got gloriously saved, he brought the oyster shell and the gospel tract up from the depths with care, treasuring them as the messengers of God to his guilty soul. The diver kept the oyster shell and gospel tract as reminders of the wonderful day he found salvation at the bottom of the ocean. 

     Surely this is a miracle of the grace and wisdom of God. It shows us that God is longsuffering to us-ward not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. (2 Peter 3:9). God was so concerned about one person that he met him in the depths of the ocean to speak to his soul. Now God has used this blessed message of the diver to speak to you wherever you are my friend. Like the diver, Jesus is seeking to save you anywhere reading this forevermore. The Son of man (Jesus) is come to seek and to save that which was lost. (Luke 19:10). 

     Jesus Christ loves you friend anywhere on this earth reading this and wants to save and forgive you of your sins like the diver. Right now get saved by repenting of your sin, confessing that Jesus is God, and believing the gospel that Jesus died for you on the cross, was buried, and rose again. Get saved today because tomorrow is not promised to any of us. 2 Corinthians 6:2 tells us I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold now is the accepted time; behold now is the day of salvation.

2) How a Torn Gospel Tract Containing The Words

The Bread Of Life Saved A Lost Sinner By A Railroad Track In India

     Pictured above Sadhu Sundar Singh in 1922 was witnessing to a lost sinner on a train in India. Sadhu gave the lost sinner a gospel tract that had the words from John's gospel. The heathen tore the gospel of John into pieces in anger and tossed it out of the train's window. This appeared to be the end of this tract from the gospel of John. 

     But it so happened in the providence of God that there was a man walking along the train tracks who was seeking for truth. For seven years this man was trying to find truth but was not satisfied. While this man was walking by the railroad tracks, he found torn pieces from John's gospel and began to read the blessed words. 

     First he saw the words everlasting life on a piece of paper. According to Hinduism it may be true that we are not going to die, but that we shall live through transmigration and come back again into this world. But this seemed to be wrong because everlasting life is greater than anything this world has to offer.

     Then the man picked up another scrap of paper that said the words "The Bread Of Life" from John 6:35. He wanted to know who is The Bread Of Live. He showed this piece of paper with the words "The Bread Of Life" to a friend and asked Can you tell me what book these pieces of John's gospel belong to? I'm so sorry that somebody tore it up. His friend replied those words come from a christian bible; You must not read it; You will be defiled; You must not read that book.

     He ignored his friend's advice because he wanted to read the book that contained the beautiful phrase "The Bread Of Life." Therefore he went and bought a KJV bible, read it cover to cover, and got gloriously saved, confessing everywhere that Jesus is God. Eventually this man became a preacher of the gospel in India. 

     For this man one torn piece of paper from John's gospel proved to be a piece of the Living Bread Of Life from Jesus who is the Word of God-a crumb from the Living Bread Of Life Jesus that saved a lost sinner's soul forevermore. Wow the Holy Spirit used a little torn piece of paper (a crumb) saying "The Bread Of Life" found by a train track to save this man's soul.  Like the woman that Jesus called a dog who replied yes I'm a dog and a lost sinner but even the dogs eat the crumbs that fall from the master's table, Lord Jesus I'll take a crumb and just a little piece of your Word that can heal and save me from all my troubles. Psalm 107:20 promises He sent His Word and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions.

3) How A Half Penny Gospel Tract Saved Thousands Of 

Sinners In India And Burma (Now Myanmar)

     After the son of an Indian chief received a half penny gospel tract from the offering of a little girl, he traveled and walked 250 miles to Rangoon Burma (now Myanmar) pictured above to find a missionary's wife who could teach him how to read the gospel tract. After 48 hours he was able to read the gospel tract and got gloriously saved. 

     This saved young man was so happy about Jesus that he gathered hundreds of gospel tracts to take home to the mountains of Burma Myanmar. He filled a basket with gospel tracts, covered them with leaves, put sugar over them, and tried to smuggle them past the guards of Ava Burma that forbid the gospel from entering Burma during the 1920's. Unfortunately, after a guard at the Ava gate searched the young boy's basket and found the gospel tracts, the Ava guards condemned the young boy to be a slave forever. 

     But after the intercession of many missionaries, this young man was released. But the young man was still determined to smuggle hundreds of gospel tracts from Ava to his native home in the mountains of Burma 300 miles away. He successfully smuggled hundreds of gospel tracts to his home and thousands of Burmese natives got gloriously saved because a little girl sent a half penny gospel tract to the son of an Indian chief from Bardwan India. 

     We learn from this story that blessed are they that hunger and thirst after righteousness for they shall be filled. This young man was so hungry to read and learn about a half penny gospel tract about Jesus that he walked 250 miles to Rangoon Burma to find a missionary's wife who could translate the gospel tract and help him receive salvation with Jesus. And because someone was faithful to send a gospel tract to India, this young man used the message on this gospel tract to save thousands of Burmese natives from his home in the mountains of Burma Myanmar. Wow, it's amazing how God can use His Word in a little half penny gospel tract and save thousands in a distant land with eternal peace forevermore. This is why we need to send gospel tracts everywhere; Place gospel tracts in christmas cards, birthday cards, graduation cards, in electric bills, car payments, and mortgage payments.  

4) How a Gospel Tract Of God's Word Traveled From 

England To America To Australia And Back To England

To Save A Lost Sinner

     A christian man in England asked a woman how Jesus saved her. The woman showed the man a wrapper from a package she received from a friend in Australia that contained one of Charles Spurgeon's sermons from an American journal. After this woman read Charles Spurgeon's sermons spoken in England, she got gloriously saved and trusted the Lord Jesus Christ to be her Saviour.

     Commenting on this incident, a pastor said Think about it: A sermon preached by Charles Spurgeon in England was printed in an America journal and came as wrapping paper over a package sent to a lady in Australia and was part of the same wrapping paper over another package sent to England to convert this English woman. God's Word traveled from England to America to Australia and back to England to save a sinful woman.   

     This shows us the power of the printed page and how God's Word and Gospel tracts can bless and save multitudes. Psalm 68:11 tells us The Lord gave the Word; Great was the company of those that published it. In other words I work for the President of the greatest publishing company ever created; And the President's name is the Lord Jesus Christ. And the Word of Jesus can travel anywhere on this earth and save multitudes for our Lord Jesus. Be like Brother Bob and write something for Jesus on this internet and send it everywhere around this earth. It will not return void and will save untold numbers for our Lord Jesus. Currently preachbrotherbob blog has been seen by a half a million people and thousands of people have gotten saved in India, Russia, Canada, Africa, and many other countries around the world. Only what we do for Jesus will last forever. 

     Stay tuned. Many more bible studies are on the way for our Lord Jesus. I pray that these little bible studies bless multitudes all over this earth with great peace and joy. Feel free to email Brother Bob anytime at rz9tlm@gmail.com or write to Brother Bob Malkin, 2233 Pinetree Lane, Apt. N., Reynoldsburg, Ohio 43068. (614) 604-7133.
