I saw about 1 minute of Mike Murdock on the Miracle Channel today, with the intent to watch it. He claimed to have written a “love song to the Holy Spirit”. O.K., whatever floats his boat. Then he started singing it. Fortunately, a commercial was on the the next channel. Anyway, I did visit his site, www.mikemurdock.com (watch out for the video clip of him that starts automatically).
The site is absolutely mad, with a 20 numbered buttons across the top and down a side bar. Each takes one a different page with various preachings and videos (some that don’t work) or advert for a fund raising scheme or some such thing. Of course, the numbered buttons imply that you should work your way through them. So, here are the first three.
#1. A 1 minute sermon of faith.
#2. A 2 minute sermon that uses the word “meditation” a lot.
#3. After 2 innocuous words of “Wisdom”, we get this:

Yup, “Miracle Harvests”. So, is he suggesting that those who “partner” with him (that sounds pretty “gay”, doesn’t it…) with get something in return. I wonder what. Some kind of harvest, like Jack and the beanstalk, I presume. Or not. And speaking of magic beans, I wish someone would do a “farting preacher” staring Mr. Mike.
Anyway, #3 has 4 pages. Plant a $58.00 seed and you will get the seven miracle harvests.
a. M. H. of Uncommon Wisdom. Yup, you get the “Wisdom of God” that “determines your Favor, your Health and your Wealth.” Golly with wisdom you make better decisions and they will “determine your increase”.
b. M. H. of uncommon Favor. I can’t quite figure this one out. Sow favor and then reap Favor in return. O.K. “Any honor of spiritual leadership unleashes the Favor of God.” This, of course, is associated with being Mike’s “partner”. Hmmm. Do you think I have it right: God will favor those who give Mike money and defers to him as an authority?
c. M. H. of Uncommon Health and Healing. Now this is curious. The blurb is basically about Mike’s charities in South Africa and Mexico, which, if they do the work he says, is really a good thing. But notice the title of this harvest. Somehow one reaps what one sows, and one becomes healed.
d. M.H. of Uncommon Ideas. If the third made you feel good about giving, the fourth will make you feel like a million bucks. Yup. God will give you good, marketable ideas. Yeah, right.
e. M. H. of Financial Prosperity. “God is Wealth-Conscious”. “Money is a weapon…that drives back the spirit of darkness”. Yeah, helps Mike pay his electric bill a zillion times over…
f. M. H. of Family Restoration. This is really obscene. “Your reaction to the Law of God Determines God’s Reaction to Your Children (Hosea 4:6b).” Really sick. Hosea is a metaphor filled book that likens Israel to a wanton woman and promises divine punishment on her and her offspring. How about the Miracle Harvest of abusive (divine) husband/father?
g. M. H. of Your Personal Promotion. Basically a plea, not just for $58, but for that amount monthly.
Here is someone who planted the $58.00 seed in 2005 and waited 58 days.
Conclusion
Well, the 58 days is up. It’s time to look over the last 58 days and see if the 58 day seed covenant worked. Here is a brief summary of the things that happened:
Idid not receive what I specifically asked for. I asked for $3,340.30 at the beginning of the covenant, and did not receive it. In fact, my loan amount increased.
I entered 5 surveys with a chance to win $1,000 dollars but did not win any of them.
I started having car trouble.
I got a letter from my bank saying my account was overdrawn, and was charged 21 dollars.
I started having severe pain in my mouth, and I needed to see a dentist. I decided not to, so it wouldn’t interfere with the 58 day seed covenant.
I entered a survey to win a $25,000 “new look,” but did not win.
No one ever just “walked up to me and handed me money,” but I did find a quarter on the floor at a restaurant.
I got $832.86 back on my tax return.
So, does Mike Murdock’s 58 day seed covenant really work? You decide.
I would think not. Maybe that’s why he now want $58.00 every month…
Well, I won’t go through all 20. It is pretty repetitious and gets quite silly, but here is the blurb from the “Donate” button. This should put to rest any doubt about God’s will for the contents of your wallet.
