The Wonder of Wisdom

Book Cover & Preview Text
The harvest is great but the laborers are few (Matthew 9:37; Luke 10:2). As you can see the work has began and there's no stopping there. The standard that's been set has to be achieved because with God and with your help nothing is impossible. Schools need to be built, orphanages are essential in this community; the widows are struggling to meet the basic needs for their families and many of them in shelters, the list goes on and no. There can be no ministry without the people and if the people are looking up to the ministry for support how then can the ministry survive but by external support and help from caring and compassionate individuals who decide to do something about it. It is not enough for them to hear a sermon about the Kingdom of Heaven if the congregation goes away hungry and for most of them, no home to go to, where is Jehovah Jireh? God has already provided for them. It's in the hands and pockets of you and I. It's our responsibility to reach out and touch their lives either directly or indirectly, whether it's by empowering the people through providing the knowledge they need to empower themselves or providing the resources that are essential. Miracles still happen today and if you're going to be that one miracle in someone's destitute life and someone else take on another person's desperation, we'll have fed the 5000 men (excluding the women and children) with just 5 loaves and two fishes (Matthew 14:13-21; John 6:1-14). We as His representatives operate as Him (Jesus Christ) collectively, though fragile, frailed and fragmented, scathed and scarred, broken and bruised ("wounded for our transgressions, bruised for our iniquities, the chastisement of our peace was upon him"), His body retained a whole lot of power from the Holy Spirit in spite of the damages done to Him, we too as His body contain the imperfect qualities and characteristics, weaknesses and infirmities but have the ability to operate and function just as He did (collectively). "I have showed you all things, how that so laboring you ought to support the weak, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he said, It is more blessed to give than to receive" Acts 20:38, "give and it shall be given back to you good measure pressed down shaken together and running over will be poured onto your lap, for with the measure you use it will be measured back to you" Luke 6:38, "there is (he/she) that scatters, and yet increases; and there is (he/she) that withholds more than is meet, but it tends to poverty. (In other words) Give freely and become more wealthy; be stingy and lose everything" Proverbs 11:24. There are many more promises that God has for them that reach out and touch the lives of the ones in dire need.

About the Book
The book bestowed upon her is reflected on Acts 1:4,5 "being assembled together with them, Jesus commanded that they should not depart, but wait for the promise of the Father, which says he, you have heard of me. For John truly baptized with water but you shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days hence." After years of praying, fasting and waiting she received instruction to go forth "taking heed to herself, and to all the flock, over which the Holy Ghost has made you overseers, to feed the flock (church) of God, purchased with His own blood." (Acts 20:28) "Behold I send the promise of my Father upon you: tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power from on high" (Luke 24:49). The Spirit of God being upon her, He anointed her to preach good tidings unto the meek, bind up the broken hearted, proclaim liberty to the captives, the opening of the prison to them that are bound, proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord, and the day of vengeance of our God, comfort all that mourn, appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, give unto them beauty for ashes, oil of joy for mourning, the garments of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called the trees of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, THAT HE MAY BE GLORIFIED! In Matthew 10:8, Jesus commanded that she "heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils: freely you have received, freely give." This assignment from the Lord Jesus Christ and commission is found in Matthew 28:19 "Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:"
About the Author
Sis Grace M.R. Makau (Lee) Spiritual journey began before she was born as Jeremiah 1.5 confirms that "before I formed you in the belly I knew you, and before you came forth of the womb I sanctified you and I (the Lord) ordained you a prophet unto the nations." As a baby she was dedicated by Rev William Tuimising of Deliverance Churches of Kenya. She was born to very staunch born again Christian parents and from the very beginning she was initiated in the faith of Our Lord Jesus Christ. Her father Rev. Shadrack Makau was already firmly rooted and grounded in the ministry under Deliverance Churches of Kenya some 40 years ago even though accepted the Lord Jesus as his personal savior in 1959 (some 50 years ago), has never let go of his promise. Her father eventually retired from his engineering/telecommunications career/profession that he loved dearly ("Yea doubtless, and I count all things [but] loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them [but] dung, that I may win Christ," Philippians 3:8) for the sake of the call and the demands of the ministry and has been pioneer of 58 Deliverance Churches across Kenya from 1990 to present, earning him the title of overseer. Her mother (Mrs. Rophence Makau), was/is the daughter of an Anglican born again believer (Isaac Mwanjala), and her mother -an intercessor and prophetess filled with the Holy Spirit (Jemimah Mwanjala). Her mother (Rophence Makau) accepted the Lord Jesus Christ when she was 8 years old, not only stood by her husband (Rev. Shadrack Makau) in ministry but also intercedes and stands in the gap for the believers in the body of Christ as it relates to the Kingdom of God to this day. She not only helped nurture and protect the gift that was in her daughter, Rev. Grace M.R. Lee {"When I call to remembrance the unfeigned faith that is in thee, which dwelt first in thy grandmother Lois, and thy mother Eunice; and I am persuaded that in thee also" II Timothy 1.5, given her by prophecy, with the laying on of the hands of the presbytery...(I Timothy 4.14),} but is and has been an educator, counselor, coach and mentor to countless women and men of all ages. She accepted Jesus Christ as her Lord and savior as a young child and was filled with the Holy Spirit in March of 2000. She had accepted the call of God early in her life and though she felt challenges of modern day living and peer pressure in her teens she never let go. Not only was Rev. G.M.R. Makau (Lee) raised in the church but thrust in ministry early in her teens and was officially ordained into the Ministry of Jesus Christ in September 19th 2006. She recalls being bullied into ministry by her eldest brother in a nice way, who alongside her father started a string of churches in Kenya and Europe. They did their part in training up the child in the way that she should go, so that when Rev. got/gets old she would not depart from it (Proverbs 22.6). She often prayed that God would give her a brain and spiritual transplant from her father because of the kind of spirit he possesses. He is very passionate, tenacious and undying pertaining to the things of God. She always said that she learned most of everything she needed to know about God, His kingdom and His work from the master himself (her father) and refusing to be affected by (MCS) Middle Child Syndrome (as she often called it), her parents' feet deeply firmly rooted in ministry, all her 3 older siblings followed suit, making ministry not only a part of her family's legacy, but a heritage in which she is privileged and proud to be a part of. She remembers her father decreeing time and time again the words of Joshua the son of Nun "...as for me and my house we will serve the Lord" (Joshua 24.15), and those words became established and true then as it is today...(Job 22.28). Her love and devotion to her savior and Lord JESUS CHRIST is her greatest motivation. In HIM she lives, moves and has her being and gets her inspiration from The TEACHER The Holy Spirit.
