>> Welcome to It Is Written
00:00:43.34\00:00:45.04
Canada.
00:00:45.04\00:00:45.94
Last week Mario Roque, our
00:00:45.94\00:00:47.61
special guest, shared his story
00:00:47.61\00:00:50.58
of how, although he was a
00:00:50.58\00:00:52.48
successful business man making
00:00:52.48\00:00:53.92
his first million building
00:00:53.92\00:00:55.92
houses at an early age, he did
00:00:55.92\00:00:58.42
not find the happiness that he
00:00:58.42\00:01:00.62
was searching for.
00:01:00.62\00:01:02.46
>> Mario shared how he ended up
00:01:02.46\00:01:04.66
losing it all, his wife and his
00:01:04.66\00:01:07.23
fortune, and he was even
00:01:07.23\00:01:09.43
$2 million in the hole.
00:01:09.43\00:01:12.40
However, this time of personal,
00:01:12.40\00:01:14.90
emotional, financial, and
00:01:14.90\00:01:17.41
relational despair, became the
00:01:17.41\00:01:19.64
time of his greatest blessing
00:01:19.64\00:01:21.58
when he had a personal
00:01:21.58\00:01:23.14
encounter with God.
00:01:23.14\00:01:24.91
>> Mario is now back this week
00:01:24.91\00:01:27.15
to share with us how he has
00:01:27.15\00:01:29.42
been serving God daily and what
00:01:29.42\00:01:31.92
miracles he has been witnessing
00:01:31.92\00:01:34.79
in his service of the Lord.
00:01:34.79\00:01:36.66
Mario, welcome back to It Is
00:01:36.66\00:01:38.56
Written Canada.
00:01:38.56\00:01:40.06
>> Glad to be back.
00:01:40.06\00:01:41.13
Thank you.
00:01:41.13\00:01:41.90
>> So last week, Mario, you had
00:01:41.90\00:01:43.47
told us about what drives you
00:01:43.47\00:01:46.00
is your desire to expand the
00:01:46.00\00:01:49.10
kingdom of God.
00:01:49.10\00:01:50.54
Tell us how the Lord has been
00:01:50.54\00:01:52.34
leading you and guiding you to
00:01:52.34\00:01:54.18
do that.
00:01:54.18\00:01:55.18
>> One of my first experiences
00:01:55.81\00:01:58.38
with God was...
00:01:58.38\00:01:59.81
with my friend, Lorne.
00:02:01.38\00:02:02.68
We went to a convention, the
00:02:02.68\00:02:05.82
pastor asked us to pray for
00:02:05.82\00:02:08.49
someone near us for healing.
00:02:08.49\00:02:11.86
This friend of mine had myelin
00:02:11.86\00:02:15.13
atrophy, that's where the
00:02:15.13\00:02:16.73
nerves have no coating on them,
00:02:16.73\00:02:19.47
he had been--
00:02:19.47\00:02:20.30
from his knees down.
00:02:20.30\00:02:22.50
He was on a narcotic patch for
00:02:22.50\00:02:25.54
15 years.
00:02:25.54\00:02:27.48
I prayed for him for just two
00:02:27.48\00:02:28.88
minutes as a brand new
00:02:28.88\00:02:30.21
Christian and he said to me,
00:02:30.21\00:02:32.65
"Mario, it's gone!"
00:02:32.65\00:02:34.65
And I said, "What's gone?"
00:02:34.65\00:02:36.45
And he said, "The pain, it's
00:02:36.45\00:02:37.99
disappeared."
00:02:37.99\00:02:39.02
Of course, ten minutes later I
00:02:39.89\00:02:40.96
had asked him, "How is it?" and
00:02:40.96\00:02:42.72
he said, "Mario, I told you,
00:02:42.72\00:02:43.66
it's gone."
00:02:43.66\00:02:44.29
Half hour later I asked him
00:02:44.29\00:02:45.36
again, "How is it?" he says,
00:02:45.36\00:02:47.23
"Look, I told you, it's gone!"
00:02:47.23\00:02:49.03
And sure enough, til the day he
00:02:50.10\00:02:53.70
died, about a year ago, he had
00:02:53.70\00:02:56.20
no more pain like that.
00:02:56.20\00:02:58.07
It completely vanished.
00:02:58.07\00:03:00.34
>> And he had been suffering in
00:03:00.34\00:03:01.51
pain for how long?
00:03:01.51\00:03:02.41
[MARIO] Fifteen years.
00:03:02.41\00:03:05.05
The...
00:03:05.05\00:03:06.21
The narcotic patch muted the
00:03:08.28\00:03:11.05
pain so it could be bearable
00:03:11.05\00:03:14.39
and he could take a lot of
00:03:14.39\00:03:15.52
pain, Lorne could take a lot of
00:03:15.52\00:03:17.29
pain, but it was
00:03:17.29\00:03:19.09
completely gone.
00:03:19.09\00:03:20.50
The hardest part for him was
00:03:20.50\00:03:22.33
actually getting off the
00:03:22.33\00:03:24.03
medication.
00:03:24.03\00:03:25.53
He did it on his own.
00:03:25.53\00:03:27.27
For 11 days he didn't sleep, he
00:03:27.27\00:03:30.04
was having the shakes, the
00:03:30.04\00:03:31.31
sweats, never told the doctor
00:03:31.31\00:03:33.01
anything til about almost three
00:03:33.01\00:03:34.61
weeks later, took him about two
00:03:34.61\00:03:36.51
months to get rid of the
00:03:36.51\00:03:39.18
residue from the narcotics.
00:03:39.18\00:03:42.42
So he was truly-- it was truly
00:03:42.42\00:03:44.29
a miracle that I experienced
00:03:44.29\00:03:46.52
with him and I praise God
00:03:46.52\00:03:48.82
for that.
00:03:48.82\00:03:49.76
Locally, I've-- the Lord, I
00:03:50.79\00:03:52.56
believe, has inspired me to, of
00:03:52.56\00:03:55.10
course I've supported my local
00:03:55.10\00:03:56.60
church for the last 19, 20
00:03:56.60\00:03:59.57
years, built a church in
00:03:59.57\00:04:02.10
Hamilton, Really Living Church.
00:04:02.10\00:04:04.94
[upbeat musi]
00:04:04.94\00:04:06.78
[MARIO] In the winter of 2016, I
00:04:06.78\00:04:08.54
was inspired to start a nutrient
00:04:08.54\00:04:10.35
dense organic farm
00:04:10.35\00:04:12.18
in Hamilton, Ontario.
00:04:12.18\00:04:13.88
So now we have a market garden,
00:04:14.62\00:04:17.45
green houses, and an orchard.
00:04:17.45\00:04:19.12
We also are doing a lot of
00:04:19.65\00:04:21.79
ministry through the health
00:04:21.79\00:04:24.09
message and we have a
00:04:24.09\00:04:25.93
naturopathic doctor,
00:04:25.93\00:04:27.23
nutritionist, etcetera that
00:04:27.23\00:04:28.83
come and do consultation here,
00:04:28.83\00:04:32.10
we also have a 30 Day in
00:04:32.10\00:04:33.84
Paradise and the first time we
00:04:33.84\00:04:36.81
did that was two years ago.
00:04:36.81\00:04:38.34
There was a young lady that I
00:04:38.34\00:04:39.54
met that looked very distraught
00:04:39.54\00:04:41.58
and didn't look well at all.
00:04:41.58\00:04:43.18
I saw her a few months later, I
00:04:43.18\00:04:44.85
didn't recognize her after she
00:04:44.85\00:04:46.05
took the program.
00:04:46.05\00:04:47.42
So it works very well for a lot
00:04:47.42\00:04:49.22
of people.
00:04:49.22\00:04:50.35
As well as we have at Camp
00:04:50.35\00:04:53.29
Frenda in the Muskokas in
00:04:53.29\00:04:55.86
Ontario, we have a One Week in
00:04:55.86\00:04:57.89
Paradise where we administer to
00:04:57.89\00:05:00.46
about 22 or 23 guests through
00:05:00.46\00:05:04.83
nutrition, we also do some
00:05:04.83\00:05:06.90
spiritual teachings and so on
00:05:06.90\00:05:09.90
and it's been fairly
00:05:09.90\00:05:11.67
successful.
00:05:11.67\00:05:12.54
At the end of the road I would
00:05:12.54\00:05:14.41
love to have an agricultural
00:05:14.41\00:05:16.58
facility here, agrotourism
00:05:16.58\00:05:18.41
facility as well as a wellness
00:05:18.41\00:05:20.35
centre on the property
00:05:20.35\00:05:21.95
to cap off.
00:05:21.95\00:05:23.45
That would be the crown jewel
00:05:23.45\00:05:24.62
of everything we're attempting
00:05:24.62\00:05:26.19
here.
00:05:26.19\00:05:26.65
[upbeat music continues]
00:05:26.92\00:05:29.42
¤¤
00:05:29.42\00:05:32.56
[MARIO] I'm involved locally
00:05:32.56\00:05:33.76
like that as well as I've done
00:05:33.76\00:05:37.90
a lot of foreign missions.
00:05:37.90\00:05:40.40
I first got involved where I
00:05:40.40\00:05:42.37
visited a number of times,
00:05:42.37\00:05:45.21
Cuba, Laos, Vietnam, China, and
00:05:45.21\00:05:49.41
I also supported North Korea.
00:05:49.41\00:05:52.08
Five out of the six communist
00:05:52.08\00:05:53.92
countries where it's some of
00:05:53.92\00:05:56.12
the most difficult places to
00:05:56.12\00:05:58.49
preach the gospel because of
00:05:58.49\00:05:59.92
the rules.
00:05:59.92\00:06:00.99
For instance, in Laos, the
00:06:00.99\00:06:02.72
church cannot own churches,
00:06:02.72\00:06:04.23
cannot own property, so we've
00:06:04.23\00:06:07.66
devised certain ways of getting
00:06:07.66\00:06:09.70
around that.
00:06:09.70\00:06:11.00
So I'm, right now I'm just very
00:06:11.97\00:06:13.94
heavily involved in Laos
00:06:13.94\00:06:15.74
primarily although I've
00:06:15.74\00:06:16.94
supported work in Peru through
00:06:16.94\00:06:20.71
ADRA last year and would like
00:06:20.71\00:06:24.45
to support that again and also
00:06:24.45\00:06:27.45
in Belize, I'm supporting
00:06:27.45\00:06:29.82
building onto a school there,
00:06:29.82\00:06:32.45
upgrading the church, there was
00:06:32.45\00:06:34.96
a person there that needed a
00:06:34.96\00:06:38.09
kidney transplant.
00:06:38.09\00:06:39.53
Of course they have no funds so
00:06:39.53\00:06:41.00
I've been supporting
00:06:41.00\00:06:41.96
that family.
00:06:41.96\00:06:43.16
Things like that, but for the
00:06:43.16\00:06:45.23
most part it's been mostly I've
00:06:45.23\00:06:47.64
decided to concentrate on one
00:06:47.64\00:06:49.24
country.
00:06:49.24\00:06:50.24
That's Laos.
00:06:50.24\00:06:51.64
Why Laos?
00:06:52.57\00:06:53.98
Two reasons: A, it's the
00:06:53.98\00:06:55.74
poorest country in the region,
00:06:55.74\00:06:58.25
it's surrounded by, if no one
00:06:58.25\00:07:01.08
knows where Laos is, Cambodia
00:07:01.08\00:07:03.28
on the south, on the west, I
00:07:03.28\00:07:05.79
believe it's west, it's
00:07:05.79\00:07:08.06
Thailand, Vietnam on the other
00:07:08.06\00:07:10.79
side, Myanmar and China, so
00:07:10.79\00:07:13.80
it's around-- it's in the
00:07:13.80\00:07:15.26
centre of all those countries,
00:07:15.26\00:07:17.80
not in the centre, but it
00:07:17.80\00:07:19.27
borders all those countries.
00:07:19.27\00:07:21.44
So I decided to support it for
00:07:21.44\00:07:22.80
two reasons like I mentioned,
00:07:22.80\00:07:24.51
one being because I can trust
00:07:24.51\00:07:27.28
the people there and I
00:07:27.28\00:07:29.21
believe-- they're so
00:07:29.21\00:07:30.88
hard-working, they're just,
00:07:30.88\00:07:32.68
they're totally consecrated to
00:07:32.68\00:07:34.58
the Lord and give their
00:07:34.58\00:07:35.55
lives for that.
00:07:35.55\00:07:36.69
And two...
00:07:37.49\00:07:38.82
...is again, like I said,
00:07:39.75\00:07:41.76
is because it's the poorest
00:07:41.76\00:07:43.29
country in the region, I always
00:07:43.29\00:07:45.06
love the underdog. [chuckles]
00:07:45.06\00:07:47.40
So that's who they are
00:07:47.40\00:07:49.30
in the region.
00:07:49.30\00:07:50.57
So I've been supporting that
00:07:50.57\00:07:51.47
for about three years now and
00:07:51.47\00:07:53.03
I've made a commitment for five
00:07:53.03\00:07:54.80
years which hopefully it'll be
00:07:54.80\00:07:56.81
forever.
00:07:56.81\00:07:58.04
That's what I'm doing
00:07:59.54\00:08:00.88
right now.
00:08:00.88\00:08:01.78
>> So, Mario, when you go to a
00:08:02.14\00:08:04.15
country like Laos, what do
00:08:04.15\00:08:05.88
these people feel that God has
00:08:05.88\00:08:07.98
done for them?
00:08:07.98\00:08:09.12
>> Well, first of all, they
00:08:11.59\00:08:13.92
find that they have hope.
00:08:13.92\00:08:16.36
I can tell you a few stories
00:08:16.36\00:08:17.59
like that.
00:08:17.59\00:08:18.49
The first time I went there we
00:08:19.96\00:08:21.16
went to some very remote
00:08:21.16\00:08:22.30
village and we ate outside by a
00:08:22.30\00:08:26.37
river, there was a number of
00:08:26.37\00:08:29.37
people there, there was a
00:08:29.37\00:08:31.37
pastor, he's the only one that
00:08:31.37\00:08:33.27
had a Bible, but these people
00:08:33.27\00:08:35.18
wanted to know about the Lord.
00:08:35.18\00:08:37.51
So I actually asked these two
00:08:37.51\00:08:39.25
women, "What has the Lord done
00:08:39.25\00:08:41.12
for you?" and the first one
00:08:41.12\00:08:44.62
said, "I used to be terribly
00:08:44.62\00:08:47.12
afraid to go into the jungle,
00:08:47.12\00:08:48.96
we're right on the edge of the
00:08:48.96\00:08:50.16
jungle actually, and I used to
00:08:50.16\00:08:52.79
be terribly afraid to go into
00:08:52.79\00:08:54.30
the jungle because I thought
00:08:54.30\00:08:55.80
the spirits of the jungle would
00:08:55.80\00:08:57.60
attack me and I would die and I
00:08:57.60\00:09:01.07
don't believe that anymore, I
00:09:01.07\00:09:02.64
believe Jesus is my protector
00:09:02.64\00:09:04.77
and I feel free."
00:09:04.77\00:09:05.94
I asked second person the
00:09:07.01\00:09:08.74
same-- similar question to
00:09:08.74\00:09:11.88
another person, another woman,
00:09:11.88\00:09:14.52
and she said something very
00:09:14.52\00:09:16.15
similar, "I used to be afraid
00:09:16.15\00:09:17.29
of the water, of the river,
00:09:17.29\00:09:19.35
because I thought that it would
00:09:19.35\00:09:21.02
drown me, the spirit would
00:09:21.02\00:09:22.26
drown me," because in Laos
00:09:22.26\00:09:25.99
there have-- they basically
00:09:25.99\00:09:28.36
have two religions, one is
00:09:28.36\00:09:30.27
Buddhism and the other one is
00:09:30.27\00:09:33.87
Spiritism and the believe that
00:09:33.87\00:09:36.37
everything has spirits.
00:09:36.37\00:09:38.01
So the rocks have spirits, the
00:09:38.01\00:09:39.47
jungle has spirits and they can
00:09:39.47\00:09:41.38
attack you or they can--
00:09:41.38\00:09:44.15
they still sacrifice animals to
00:09:44.15\00:09:46.21
these spirits there.
00:09:46.21\00:09:47.95
So before they build a house,
00:09:49.22\00:09:51.45
they sacrifice animals
00:09:51.45\00:09:53.22
for safety.
00:09:53.22\00:09:54.22
That's how far back
00:09:55.32\00:09:57.19
where they are.
00:09:57.19\00:09:58.39
I've seen a lot of
00:09:59.19\00:10:01.06
stories of hope.
00:10:01.06\00:10:03.00
I visited in a town, a house
00:10:03.00\00:10:06.67
church on Saturday and while I
00:10:06.67\00:10:10.07
was outside, before I went in,
00:10:10.07\00:10:11.64
I could feel the presence of
00:10:11.64\00:10:13.17
God in there and they were
00:10:13.17\00:10:14.44
worshipping God, playing guitar
00:10:14.44\00:10:16.91
and singing in their native
00:10:16.91\00:10:18.45
tongue.
00:10:18.45\00:10:19.95
And I asked them, "Where do
00:10:19.95\00:10:21.95
you-- how did you guys end up
00:10:21.95\00:10:23.82
meeting in this house as a
00:10:23.82\00:10:26.42
church?" and they said,
00:10:26.42\00:10:28.19
"Because we're from the north
00:10:28.19\00:10:30.19
and we've been run out of our
00:10:30.19\00:10:32.46
home and our land because of
00:10:32.46\00:10:34.23
our faith.
00:10:34.23\00:10:35.23
We're not allowed to practice
00:10:36.20\00:10:37.90
our faith so we had to move."
00:10:37.90\00:10:39.50
So that is like a house of
00:10:40.37\00:10:41.64
refuge owned by someone and
00:10:41.64\00:10:43.57
when they come from the north
00:10:43.57\00:10:44.97
they stay there for a while,
00:10:44.97\00:10:46.44
try to find a job.
00:10:46.44\00:10:47.64
So they have hope.
00:10:48.74\00:10:50.65
I also met a young man that was
00:10:52.08\00:10:54.15
leading a house church in a
00:10:54.15\00:10:56.65
village and I notice that there
00:10:56.65\00:11:00.16
were about 40 people in this
00:11:00.16\00:11:01.96
house church and the reason I
00:11:01.96\00:11:04.33
was taken there is because they
00:11:04.33\00:11:05.99
wanted to buy a piece of land
00:11:05.99\00:11:08.03
to build a formal church
00:11:08.03\00:11:09.70
because it was outgrowing the
00:11:09.70\00:11:11.47
house church.
00:11:11.47\00:11:12.40
So I noticed that this young
00:11:13.17\00:11:14.30
man was preaching and most
00:11:14.30\00:11:16.64
family-- most of the people
00:11:16.64\00:11:18.41
there were young families
00:11:18.41\00:11:20.38
except for an old woman.
00:11:20.38\00:11:21.94
And then they told me their
00:11:23.11\00:11:24.78
story that this old woman used
00:11:24.78\00:11:29.52
to travel from there, that's in
00:11:29.52\00:11:32.19
the capital, but it's in the
00:11:32.19\00:11:33.79
outskirts of the capital, take
00:11:33.79\00:11:35.76
her five, six hours to walk
00:11:35.76\00:11:37.53
to church.
00:11:37.53\00:11:38.53
And sometimes some people in
00:11:39.89\00:11:42.50
the church would give her money
00:11:42.50\00:11:43.67
to take a bus part of the
00:11:43.67\00:11:45.53
way home.
00:11:45.53\00:11:46.53
This young man was at one time
00:11:48.27\00:11:51.01
demonically possessed, chained
00:11:51.01\00:11:53.21
to a post outside...
00:11:53.21\00:11:55.38
because they couldn't
00:11:57.41\00:11:58.31
deal with him.
00:11:58.31\00:11:58.98
A lot of people had taken him
00:11:58.98\00:12:00.92
to hospitals, some people had
00:12:00.92\00:12:03.08
prayed for him, this older
00:12:03.08\00:12:05.55
woman prayed for him fervently
00:12:05.55\00:12:09.26
and this was the young man that
00:12:09.26\00:12:10.76
was standing there preaching,
00:12:10.76\00:12:12.36
he was totally healed, had a
00:12:12.36\00:12:14.20
wife, a child, and it was--
00:12:14.20\00:12:16.36
he was a very happy young man.
00:12:16.36\00:12:18.33
When you see stories like that
00:12:19.37\00:12:20.74
it just breaks your heart and
00:12:20.74\00:12:22.57
you wanna do more because in
00:12:22.57\00:12:24.47
countries like that, dramatic
00:12:24.47\00:12:26.31
things do happen because these
00:12:26.31\00:12:28.58
people are simple people.
00:12:28.58\00:12:30.65
While I was there last time as
00:12:32.48\00:12:33.92
well, I went, we did some
00:12:33.92\00:12:38.32
projects out in the country and
00:12:38.32\00:12:40.09
I asked, there were
00:12:40.09\00:12:41.16
interpreters, "Is there
00:12:41.16\00:12:41.86
mice here?"
00:12:41.86\00:12:42.66
What a silly question.
00:12:42.66\00:12:44.36
And he said, "Of course
00:12:44.36\00:12:45.36
there is, we eat them."
00:12:45.36\00:12:47.40
And he said, "We also eat rats."
00:12:48.40\00:12:51.33
I went to the market, local
00:12:52.37\00:12:54.80
market, 90, 100 degrees
00:12:54.80\00:12:57.81
temperature, in wicker basket
00:12:57.81\00:13:01.38
was bat meat, looked very dark
00:13:01.38\00:13:03.65
to me with flies all around it
00:13:03.65\00:13:06.01
and they were selling that.
00:13:06.01\00:13:07.22
Laos suffered a lot of hunger
00:13:08.15\00:13:12.22
during the war, the Vietnam
00:13:12.22\00:13:13.92
War, and they've never really
00:13:13.92\00:13:15.86
recovered fully with
00:13:15.86\00:13:17.43
enough food.
00:13:17.43\00:13:18.43
So one of the things we did, I
00:13:19.86\00:13:21.96
started there on a full time
00:13:21.96\00:13:23.63
basis about three years ago,
00:13:23.63\00:13:26.03
during COVID they didn't have
00:13:26.03\00:13:27.14
enough food to eat so they
00:13:27.14\00:13:29.30
rented trucks and bought a lot
00:13:29.30\00:13:31.64
of rice and brought it to
00:13:31.64\00:13:33.61
villages to feed these people
00:13:33.61\00:13:35.51
because a lot of 'em could die
00:13:35.51\00:13:36.48
from hunger there.
00:13:36.48\00:13:37.81
It's that desperate.
00:13:38.91\00:13:40.28
So hope, when the people find
00:13:40.92\00:13:44.12
Christ, they definitely have
00:13:44.12\00:13:46.39
hope because living without
00:13:46.39\00:13:48.22
hope, they know they're gonna
00:13:48.22\00:13:49.66
live and die in poverty, live
00:13:49.66\00:13:52.16
and die in an environment where
00:13:52.16\00:13:55.13
there's no medical available,
00:13:55.13\00:13:58.13
no-- not enough food available.
00:13:58.13\00:14:01.67
And if you notice, one of the
00:14:01.67\00:14:03.97
things I notice, everybody
00:14:03.97\00:14:05.21
there is very slim.
00:14:05.21\00:14:06.41
You don't see overweight
00:14:07.08\00:14:07.94
people, especially out
00:14:07.94\00:14:08.61
in the country.
00:14:08.61\00:14:09.71
In the city you see the odd
00:14:09.71\00:14:10.48
person, in the country you
00:14:10.48\00:14:11.98
don't 'cause the simply do not
00:14:11.98\00:14:13.52
have enough food.
00:14:13.52\00:14:15.22
I've seen some of the most
00:14:15.22\00:14:16.92
dedicated people to the gospel
00:14:16.92\00:14:19.95
in places like that.
00:14:19.95\00:14:21.16
Met an older woman, went to her
00:14:21.99\00:14:24.73
house, we had din-- lunch at
00:14:24.73\00:14:26.96
her house.
00:14:26.96\00:14:28.33
Very unusual foods that looked
00:14:28.33\00:14:29.93
like herbs and a lot of very
00:14:29.93\00:14:31.93
unusual vegetarian dishes and
00:14:31.93\00:14:36.91
she used to be in the army at
00:14:36.91\00:14:38.37
one time and was a communist
00:14:38.37\00:14:40.94
supporter and she found the
00:14:40.94\00:14:42.74
Lord and now she preaches the
00:14:42.74\00:14:44.88
gospel, she's the local
00:14:44.88\00:14:46.55
evangelist and she's been to
00:14:46.55\00:14:48.65
prison a number of times, but
00:14:48.65\00:14:50.12
it has never stopped her.
00:14:50.12\00:14:51.52
That's how dedicated some of
00:14:52.39\00:14:53.79
these people are.
00:14:53.79\00:14:54.82
It's incredible.
00:14:54.82\00:14:55.89
They live and breathe
00:14:55.89\00:14:57.99
evangelism and looking after
00:14:57.99\00:15:00.06
one another and so on.
00:15:00.06\00:15:01.80
So in places like that,
00:15:02.56\00:15:04.87
children have no ability to get
00:15:04.87\00:15:07.00
a higher education so one of
00:15:07.00\00:15:09.40
the things we do, we support,
00:15:09.40\00:15:11.81
part of the budget is to
00:15:11.81\00:15:13.14
support students to go to
00:15:13.14\00:15:15.11
Spicer and also to the
00:15:15.11\00:15:17.11
Philippines to study.
00:15:17.11\00:15:19.55
So we have people that are
00:15:19.55\00:15:21.02
becoming doctors and nurses and
00:15:21.02\00:15:23.05
teachers and so-- because there
00:15:23.05\00:15:26.02
is no infrastructure in Laos
00:15:26.02\00:15:30.33
so we're building schools for
00:15:30.33\00:15:32.19
people to learn English, it's
00:15:32.19\00:15:33.96
one way that they use for
00:15:33.96\00:15:35.53
evangelism.
00:15:35.53\00:15:36.73
These large schools, you'd be
00:15:36.73\00:15:38.20
surprised for two, three
00:15:38.20\00:15:40.07
hundred thousand dollars you
00:15:40.07\00:15:41.50
can build a large school
00:15:41.50\00:15:42.47
in Laos.
00:15:42.47\00:15:43.14
And so we're buying land for
00:15:43.94\00:15:46.17
churches, for schools, we're
00:15:46.17\00:15:47.61
building them and giving people
00:15:47.61\00:15:49.51
hope because there is-- in a
00:15:49.51\00:15:51.25
place like that there is
00:15:51.25\00:15:52.35
no hope.
00:15:52.35\00:15:52.98
Their whole-- for generations
00:15:53.05\00:15:55.78
they live and die at a very
00:15:55.78\00:15:57.69
early age.
00:15:57.69\00:15:58.52
The average woman in Laos, I
00:15:58.52\00:16:00.32
don't know exactly what age
00:16:00.32\00:16:02.12
they die, but a lot of them are
00:16:02.12\00:16:03.46
in their 20's and 30's.
00:16:03.46\00:16:05.13
I walked into a village once,
00:16:05.79\00:16:07.73
again, the first time I was
00:16:08.86\00:16:10.30
there, and I noticed it was
00:16:10.30\00:16:11.50
only children, just a couple of
00:16:11.50\00:16:13.90
adults, so we had a service
00:16:13.90\00:16:15.07
there, it was mostly children,
00:16:15.07\00:16:16.81
two adults.
00:16:16.81\00:16:17.64
So I said, "Where are all the
00:16:17.64\00:16:19.11
adults?"
00:16:19.11\00:16:19.81
They're all dead.
00:16:19.81\00:16:21.04
Because they didn't have water
00:16:22.04\00:16:25.08
to drink, good water to drink,
00:16:25.08\00:16:27.08
good sanitation.
00:16:27.08\00:16:28.88
They would go to the bathroom
00:16:28.88\00:16:30.82
in the forest, right next to
00:16:30.82\00:16:33.19
the, I wouldn't even call it a
00:16:33.19\00:16:34.62
river, I was there in the dry
00:16:34.62\00:16:36.83
season so it was very low, very
00:16:36.83\00:16:38.93
brown, and they would go to the
00:16:38.93\00:16:40.83
bathroom next door and then
00:16:40.83\00:16:43.00
they would drink that water and
00:16:43.00\00:16:44.60
it would come from upstream,
00:16:44.60\00:16:46.47
with that kind of material in
00:16:46.47\00:16:48.77
the water as well.
00:16:48.77\00:16:50.31
So they were dying very young
00:16:50.31\00:16:51.77
from gastrointestinal diseases
00:16:51.77\00:16:54.68
because they did not have
00:16:54.68\00:16:56.78
enough water to drink.
00:16:56.78\00:16:58.15
So while it was build there,
00:16:58.15\00:17:00.68
they had water tower, they--
00:17:00.68\00:17:02.98
bathrooms were built there for
00:17:02.98\00:17:06.05
communal, for women and for
00:17:06.05\00:17:07.89
men, so that they at least--
00:17:07.89\00:17:10.43
and they were taught some
00:17:10.43\00:17:12.66
hygiene, basic hygiene.
00:17:12.66\00:17:14.73
That's one of the first things
00:17:14.73\00:17:15.63
I noticed in visiting these
00:17:15.63\00:17:18.57
poor, very poor countries,
00:17:18.57\00:17:19.90
hygiene is-- they don't know
00:17:19.90\00:17:20.94
what hygiene is.
00:17:20.94\00:17:22.04
They don't know so they lose
00:17:23.00\00:17:24.34
their teeth very young, they
00:17:24.34\00:17:25.94
die very young, women start--
00:17:25.94\00:17:28.61
they have nothing to do so they
00:17:28.61\00:17:29.94
get pregnant as soon as they
00:17:29.94\00:17:31.05
are able to and they have too
00:17:31.05\00:17:32.65
many children and they can't
00:17:32.65\00:17:34.25
bear it and they die young.
00:17:34.25\00:17:36.38
So these people need help.
00:17:36.38\00:17:37.99
There was this young lady whose
00:17:38.95\00:17:43.02
husband is a drug addict, she
00:17:43.02\00:17:46.49
had some kind of flesh-eating
00:17:46.49\00:17:47.86
disease on one leg.
00:17:47.86\00:17:49.63
So from the knee down she was in
00:17:49.96\00:17:52.83
excruciating pain over a year.
00:17:52.83\00:17:55.54
No medications, no hospitals,
00:17:56.37\00:17:58.84
no medical, nothing.
00:17:58.84\00:18:00.48
So funds were raised to get her
00:18:01.68\00:18:05.31
leg amputated from the knee
00:18:05.31\00:18:07.48
down, she had that done, I saw
00:18:07.48\00:18:10.29
pictures of her before.
00:18:10.29\00:18:11.95
She looked very, very sad and
00:18:12.89\00:18:15.22
very, like, there was-- you
00:18:15.22\00:18:16.96
could see in her face, the pain
00:18:16.96\00:18:18.73
was coming through.
00:18:18.73\00:18:20.06
Three weeks after the
00:18:21.40\00:18:22.53
operation, three, four weeks, I
00:18:22.53\00:18:25.43
saw her doing some sewing and
00:18:25.43\00:18:28.60
she had the biggest smile on
00:18:28.60\00:18:29.87
her face because all the pain
00:18:29.87\00:18:31.67
was gone and she was
00:18:31.67\00:18:33.21
praising God.
00:18:33.21\00:18:34.24
The other story is local, and
00:18:35.54\00:18:37.65
I've got many story-- I
00:18:37.65\00:18:38.81
probably have a hundred stories
00:18:38.81\00:18:39.85
to tell, but I met a man in his
00:18:39.85\00:18:44.25
early to mid 50's at the farm
00:18:44.25\00:18:46.49
one day and for some reason I
00:18:46.49\00:18:49.39
was inspired to ask him why he
00:18:49.39\00:18:52.46
showed up there and he said
00:18:52.46\00:18:54.00
that he was a very sick person
00:18:54.00\00:18:57.07
and that he came there to buy
00:18:57.07\00:18:59.43
vegetables and so on, he came
00:18:59.43\00:19:01.17
to Paradise Fields to buy
00:19:01.17\00:19:02.77
vegetables.
00:19:02.77\00:19:03.77
And I looked him straight in
00:19:04.41\00:19:05.57
the eye, I said, "God's gonna
00:19:05.57\00:19:06.78
heal you."
00:19:06.78\00:19:07.41
I had no clue what was wrong
00:19:07.41\00:19:09.28
with him.
00:19:09.28\00:19:10.35
Zero.
00:19:10.35\00:19:11.35
So I talked to him on and off
00:19:12.45\00:19:13.98
for about six months, one day
00:19:13.98\00:19:15.82
that friend of mine, Lorne, and
00:19:15.82\00:19:18.52
I visited him, we anointed him
00:19:18.52\00:19:22.09
and asked him if he wanted to
00:19:22.09\00:19:23.16
do Bible studies.
00:19:23.16\00:19:24.43
This was the beginning of COVID
00:19:25.59\00:19:27.60
and we did Bible studies over
00:19:27.60\00:19:30.73
the phone.
00:19:30.73\00:19:31.60
Now, because he was at home all
00:19:31.60\00:19:35.24
the time, he-- let me tell you
00:19:35.24\00:19:37.81
what his problem was, he was
00:19:37.81\00:19:40.34
very depressed and full of
00:19:40.34\00:19:42.31
anxiety, he didn't wanna leave
00:19:42.31\00:19:44.85
the house, didn't wanna be
00:19:44.85\00:19:46.21
around anybody, wasn't
00:19:46.21\00:19:48.22
sleeping, wasn't eating, just
00:19:48.22\00:19:51.72
very, very dysfunctional.
00:19:51.72\00:19:53.62
So we started doing Bible
00:19:54.39\00:19:55.99
studies with him during COVID
00:19:55.99\00:19:57.29
over the phone.
00:19:57.29\00:19:58.26
Now, he's originally from
00:19:58.26\00:20:00.50
Romania, he was a-- back home
00:20:00.50\00:20:03.70
he was a-- he audited banks,
00:20:03.70\00:20:08.07
that's what he did for a
00:20:08.07\00:20:09.04
living, here he worked with the
00:20:09.04\00:20:10.91
handicapped and things like
00:20:10.91\00:20:12.71
that before he got very sick.
00:20:12.71\00:20:14.98
But we started doing Bible
00:20:14.98\00:20:16.95
studies.
00:20:16.95\00:20:17.95
I did 27 Bible studies with him
00:20:17.95\00:20:19.95
over the phone in 27 days.
00:20:19.95\00:20:22.38
[chuckles]
00:20:22.38\00:20:23.49
And then we did prophecy
00:20:23.99\00:20:25.39
studies.
00:20:25.39\00:20:26.29
Now, they were a little bit
00:20:26.29\00:20:27.29
more complicated, there were 32
00:20:27.29\00:20:28.76
lessons and it took longer, so
00:20:28.76\00:20:30.46
that probably took us about two
00:20:30.46\00:20:32.69
months to do 32 lessons.
00:20:32.69\00:20:35.20
He completely changed.
00:20:36.20\00:20:37.17
He started working on the farm
00:20:37.17\00:20:38.90
and his wife tells me the
00:20:38.90\00:20:41.20
reason he's healed is because
00:20:41.20\00:20:42.90
he worked on the farm, because
00:20:42.90\00:20:45.17
of the peace that he found
00:20:45.17\00:20:46.91
there, the birds, the nature.
00:20:46.91\00:20:49.94
He used to tell me he has a
00:20:49.94\00:20:51.31
friend there who's a frog.
00:20:51.31\00:20:52.91
[chuckles]
00:20:52.91\00:20:54.68
And he's completely healed.
00:20:55.68\00:20:57.95
He's one of the happiest
00:20:57.95\00:20:59.15
persons you'll ever-- people
00:20:59.15\00:21:00.49
you'll ever meet.
00:21:00.49\00:21:01.56
And...
00:21:02.59\00:21:03.46
...that's a miracle in itself
00:21:04.49\00:21:07.46
and it's all because he got to
00:21:07.46\00:21:09.20
know the Lord and he started
00:21:09.20\00:21:11.53
working in an environment where
00:21:11.53\00:21:13.23
there was peace and there was
00:21:13.23\00:21:14.94
nature and he saw God in
00:21:14.94\00:21:16.64
everything.
00:21:16.64\00:21:17.64
And, as a matter of fact, they
00:21:18.44\00:21:20.71
tell me that in Quebec that
00:21:20.71\00:21:22.24
they have a farm like that
00:21:22.24\00:21:23.61
where they send people, the
00:21:23.61\00:21:24.95
government, I think it's the
00:21:24.95\00:21:25.88
government sends people there
00:21:25.88\00:21:27.15
for healing, working on a farm,
00:21:27.15\00:21:29.18
so...
00:21:29.18\00:21:29.78
And we've had a number of
00:21:29.78\00:21:30.72
healings on the farm.
00:21:30.72\00:21:32.39
Our mechanic used to be
00:21:32.39\00:21:34.92
depressed, he no longer has
00:21:34.92\00:21:36.69
meds. [chuckles]
00:21:36.69\00:21:38.96
He's a happy man.
00:21:38.96\00:21:40.43
We had a young lady that used
00:21:40.43\00:21:41.80
to manage the market garden,
00:21:41.80\00:21:43.97
she was all full of anxiety,
00:21:43.97\00:21:45.60
alcoholic, drug-aholic, quit
00:21:45.60\00:21:47.57
all of that, totally normal.
00:21:47.57\00:21:50.17
So I've see miracles
00:21:50.17\00:21:52.17
everywhere, everywhere I've
00:21:52.17\00:21:54.04
seen a lot of-- in foreign
00:21:54.04\00:21:55.68
lands and here.
00:21:55.68\00:21:56.98
>> So, Mario, God has really
00:21:58.95\00:22:00.98
blessed you and you have
00:22:00.98\00:22:03.72
resources that you can use to
00:22:03.72\00:22:05.99
buy things for yourself.
00:22:05.99\00:22:07.66
Are you ever tempted
00:22:08.49\00:22:10.13
to do that?
00:22:10.13\00:22:11.13
>> Not really, I have
00:22:13.26\00:22:14.40
everything I need, I have a
00:22:14.40\00:22:15.93
home here, I've got a property,
00:22:15.93\00:22:18.57
it's a small property in
00:22:18.57\00:22:19.93
Florida, it's a town home, but
00:22:19.93\00:22:21.94
we go there and we go north a
00:22:21.94\00:22:24.17
little bit in the summer.
00:22:24.17\00:22:25.67
That's good enough for me.
00:22:25.67\00:22:27.11
What more do I need?
00:22:27.11\00:22:28.41
My son is of the same opinion.
00:22:28.41\00:22:29.84
Once you have what you need,
00:22:29.84\00:22:30.85
what do you want more for?
00:22:30.85\00:22:32.95
So we only want more for two
00:22:32.95\00:22:34.35
reasons, one is to make sure
00:22:34.35\00:22:35.95
the company is in good
00:22:35.95\00:22:37.89
financial condition, we don't
00:22:37.89\00:22:40.59
wanna-- I don't wanna go
00:22:40.59\00:22:41.42
through that again where it's
00:22:41.42\00:22:42.66
$2 million in the hole so we
00:22:42.66\00:22:44.56
wanna stabilize the company,
00:22:44.56\00:22:46.86
which it's pretty stable now.
00:22:46.86\00:22:48.96
And apart from that, it's for
00:22:48.96\00:22:50.17
the Lord's work.
00:22:50.17\00:22:51.70
So I hope one day soon that we
00:22:51.70\00:22:53.87
can do 50, 60, 70% of the funds
00:22:53.87\00:22:58.81
for that Lord and that could be
00:22:58.81\00:23:00.28
a tremendous amount of money
00:23:00.28\00:23:02.18
and-- because after all, I take
00:23:02.18\00:23:04.05
it literally, this all belongs
00:23:04.05\00:23:05.71
to Him.
00:23:05.71\00:23:06.72
I'm just His steward
00:23:06.72\00:23:07.98
and I take it literally.
00:23:07.98\00:23:09.32
It's not about me.
00:23:09.32\00:23:10.89
He's blessed me in so many
00:23:10.89\00:23:13.05
ways, I thank Him every day
00:23:13.05\00:23:14.96
when I think about how He's
00:23:14.96\00:23:16.59
blessed me, not just
00:23:16.59\00:23:18.19
financially, but emotionally,
00:23:18.19\00:23:20.70
relationally, friendships,
00:23:20.70\00:23:24.40
peace in my life and I want
00:23:24.40\00:23:26.40
that for the whole world, so if
00:23:26.40\00:23:28.97
I can be a little bit of help
00:23:28.97\00:23:30.97
in that area, I'm willing to do
00:23:30.97\00:23:32.67
what it takes.
00:23:32.67\00:23:33.78
>> Mario, a last question that
00:23:34.98\00:23:36.68
I have for you is maybe there's
00:23:36.68\00:23:39.71
someone who is in a condition
00:23:39.71\00:23:42.68
like you were where you felt
00:23:42.68\00:23:45.09
like you were in your deepest
00:23:45.09\00:23:46.49
despair and they feel like it's
00:23:46.49\00:23:50.89
just too dark, how do I get out
00:23:50.89\00:23:53.26
of this?
00:23:53.26\00:23:54.46
What would you say to them?
00:23:54.46\00:23:56.00
>> I've seen a lot of
00:23:57.03\00:23:58.00
experiences like that so I can
00:23:58.00\00:23:59.53
speak from experience.
00:23:59.53\00:24:00.84
None of these are just stories
00:24:00.84\00:24:02.44
that I read, these are from
00:24:02.44\00:24:03.34
experience.
00:24:03.34\00:24:04.21
Where people are in that kind
00:24:05.24\00:24:06.37
of condition, they have come
00:24:06.37\00:24:08.14
totally out of it and today
00:24:08.14\00:24:10.25
they seek the Lord with all
00:24:10.25\00:24:11.81
their heart, they've tried and
00:24:11.81\00:24:13.38
they've had some help, some
00:24:13.38\00:24:16.02
people helping them.
00:24:16.02\00:24:17.19
And I can tell you a lot of
00:24:17.19\00:24:18.55
stories like that where people
00:24:18.55\00:24:21.76
were going to die from MS,
00:24:21.76\00:24:23.53
today perfectly healthy.
00:24:23.53\00:24:25.19
Was in a wheelchair in their
00:24:27.73\00:24:30.13
late 30's with three children,
00:24:30.13\00:24:31.50
today's totally healthy.
00:24:31.50\00:24:33.34
So I can...
00:24:33.34\00:24:35.04
There is no such thing as
00:24:36.14\00:24:37.84
despair with the Lord.
00:24:37.84\00:24:39.57
You can despair, but if you
00:24:39.57\00:24:40.81
reach out to God and ask Him to
00:24:40.81\00:24:43.04
come in your life and start
00:24:43.04\00:24:44.78
pursuing the Lord, He will work
00:24:44.78\00:24:46.78
miracles in your life, too.
00:24:46.78\00:24:48.42
No question in my mind.
00:24:50.15\00:24:51.55
I'm 100% convinced.
00:24:51.55\00:24:53.69
I've experienced hundreds of
00:24:53.69\00:24:55.56
stories so I believe all of
00:24:55.56\00:24:58.29
that. [laughs]
00:24:58.29\00:24:59.63
With all my heart.
00:24:59.63\00:25:00.96
>> And when you see it first
00:25:00.96\00:25:02.33
hand, you have faith...
00:25:02.33\00:25:04.37
[MARIO] Oh, yes.
00:25:04.37\00:25:05.13
[MIKE] ...that God is faithful.
00:25:05.13\00:25:06.07
>> Yes, yes, yeah.
00:25:06.07\00:25:08.17
[MIKE] Mario, I wonder if you
00:25:08.17\00:25:09.17
could pray for our viewers,
00:25:09.17\00:25:12.37
there are many who are
00:25:12.37\00:25:15.01
listening and they want their
00:25:15.01\00:25:16.88
faith to grow and can you pray
00:25:16.88\00:25:19.61
for them right now?
00:25:19.61\00:25:21.12
>> Certainly.
00:25:21.12\00:25:21.88
Heavenly Father, it is a
00:25:21.88\00:25:25.25
terrible thing to be in despair.
00:25:25.25\00:25:27.62
I've been there.
00:25:27.62\00:25:28.76
I have witnessed hundreds of
00:25:28.76\00:25:29.96
people being in that condition.
00:25:29.96\00:25:32.19
It is a terrible thing, Lord.
00:25:32.19\00:25:33.70
But all who reach out to You
00:25:33.70\00:25:35.16
earnestly from the heart,
00:25:35.16\00:25:37.77
You can heal.
00:25:37.77\00:25:39.63
You are Jehovah-Rophe, the Lord
00:25:39.63\00:25:41.37
is our Healer.
00:25:41.37\00:25:42.74
By Your stripes we are healed.
00:25:42.74\00:25:44.51
Those are not just words on the
00:25:44.51\00:25:46.91
pages of the Bible,
00:25:46.91\00:25:48.11
that is real.
00:25:48.11\00:25:49.98
God is the same yesterday,
00:25:49.98\00:25:51.95
today, and tomorrow.
00:25:51.95\00:25:53.11
When Jesus was on earth, He
00:25:53.11\00:25:54.38
healed everyone that came in
00:25:54.38\00:25:55.78
contact with Him, that reached
00:25:55.78\00:25:57.22
out to Him.
00:25:57.22\00:25:58.42
It's no different today.
00:25:58.42\00:25:59.92
If you reach out to the Lord,
00:25:59.92\00:26:02.09
there's no question in my mind,
00:26:02.09\00:26:03.69
if you do it from your heart,
00:26:03.69\00:26:05.29
He will heal whatever is
00:26:05.29\00:26:07.20
missing in your life and He
00:26:07.20\00:26:09.63
will give you peace and joy
00:26:09.63\00:26:11.50
because in God's presence there
00:26:11.50\00:26:12.90
is fullness of joy.
00:26:12.90\00:26:14.44
Amen.
00:26:15.77\00:26:16.77
[MIKE & RENČ] Amen.
00:26:17.14\00:26:18.17
>> Mario, thank you so much for

beautiful home and for sharing

your wonderful story with us.
00:26:24.18\00:26:26.95
>> You're quite welcome.
00:26:27.65\00:26:28.65
I hope it inspires others to
00:26:28.65\00:26:32.22
raise their heads high in the
00:26:32.22\00:26:34.16
Lord and I hope everyone that
00:26:34.16\00:26:37.09
is listening today that they
00:26:37.09\00:26:39.23
would have a healing
00:26:39.23\00:26:40.23
in their life.
00:26:40.23\00:26:41.00
>> In the Bible, Jesus
00:26:43.97\00:26:45.43
essentially defined eternal
00:26:45.43\00:26:47.67
life in these two words,
00:26:47.67\00:26:49.94
"Knowing God."
00:26:49.94\00:26:51.94
Not simply knowing about God,
00:26:51.94\00:26:54.48
but actually knowing Him,
00:26:54.48\00:26:56.95
having a personal and positive
00:26:56.95\00:26:59.45
relationship with Him.
00:26:59.45\00:27:01.05

for growing closer to Jesus and

the spirit of life found in the

00:27:57.21\00:28:00.18
"It is written, 'Man shall not
00:28:00.18\00:28:02.51
live by bread alone, but by
00:28:02.51\00:28:05.01
every word that proceeds out of
00:28:05.01\00:28:07.52
the mouth of God.'"
00:28:07.52\00:28:09.28

00:28:11.75\00:28:13.29
three times more antioxidants,
