"For years, African American people have
felt that our only identity was as slaves,"
Venessa said. "That was our lot in life. Now
we read that the father of our faith married an
African woman and had six sons.
"That chapter goes on to say that Keturah's
sons were strong men. Abraham was afraid
that when he died, they would take over. So,
like he'd done with Ishmael and Hagar, he sent
them away.
"We have a biblical identity!"
From that revelation, Venessa authored a
book, titled Keturah Revealed: Finding Your
Jewish Roots.
Keturah Farms
In 2019, Venessa fl ew to Kenya where she
spoke at a church of 200 pastors and leaders.
As she preached the Keturah message, the
people responded with laughter and with tears.
One pastor, she said, described what he'd seen
in the spirit: "Instead of just standing in God's
presence, people climbed into His lap."
"I'd been to Liberia, so I understood poverty,"
Venessa recalls. "But something was di erent
in Kenya. They'd had heavy rains which potted
the roads. As we drove from place to place so
that I could preach, I saw children dipping their
cups into muddy puddles to drink.
"It broke my heart. I thought, God, You've got
to do something. This can't happen on my watch.
"I talked to the local pastors. Most of them
had land and knew how to farm. They didn't
have money for seed and fertilizer. I knew
we had to help them. For a couple of hundred
dollars, we bought 50 baby chicks. That's when
I got a vision for farms that would produce food
to feed many people. I called them Keturah
farms. We started several in Kenya and in other
places in Africa."
The following year, in 2020, Venessa did
not return to Kenya, but the group she had
previously traveled there with sent pictures.
"Corn was everywhere!" Venessa said. "The
people were almost starving in 2019 when we
started the farms. Once COVID hit, without
those crops there would have been no food.
Those people would have died."
A Deeper Faith
About that time, the Lord impressed Venessa
to reconnect with her faith roots.
"Luke 18:8 kept circling my mind:
'Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes,
will he really fi nd faith on the earth?'" (New
King James Version)
"I thought I was a woman of great faith,"
Venessa says. "Yes, my faith was strong, but it
wasn't where it needed to be. God let me know
that I needed to take a deep dive back into faith.
I became a Partner with KCM. I also began
watching VICTORY Channel
™
daily. My faith
rose immediately. Even more amazing, God
began doing supernatural things through me
on a regular basis."
In 2021, Venessa was a guest on a TV show.
Before they went on air, they reviewed some of
the things that would be discussed.
"How many Keturah Farms are you going to
have?" she was asked.
Venessa hadn't thought about it.
"Maybe 500," she said.
