NICKY CRUZ - SPECIAL MEETING at Whitewell Tabernacle - Revelation TV

- Опубликовано: 11 сен 2024
- Cruz was raised in Puerto Rico. His parents were heavily involved in witchcraft and spiritualism, and as such, Nicky was the victim of repeated physical abuse and rejection at their hands. In an attempt to escape his violent upbringing, Nicky fled to New York City in the mid 50s where he soon got caught up in the gang violence that was sweeping the city. Fearless and seemingly immune to physical pain, Cruz rose through the ranks of the notorious Mau Mau gang in Fort Greene, Brooklyn to become their War Lord.
Cruz’ life was a downward spiral of violence and dysfunction. A court-ordered psychiatrist told the court and Nicky that he was “doomed...finished...on a one-way trip to jail, the electric chair and hell.” Then one day a skinny preacher - David Wilkerson - came to the war-torn streets of Brooklyn delivering a message to Nicky - “Jesus loves you, Nicky.” Cruz threatened to kill the preacher, but several weeks later at a rally at the St. Nicholas Arena in NYC - Cruz surrendered his life to God and exchanged his weapons for a Bible.
He has an incredible story to tell and this is a night not to be missed.

Because of Nicky and his gang, my family had to leave Brooklyn. University scholarships, promising careers, all left behind. He & his M M were terrifying. Now I understand. My family still became academically successful, but I cried for two years because I missed Brooklyn so much. I appreciate his testimony because… God saved him and others.
My mom would always talked about Nicky Cruz when me and my family gathered/sit together. And we actually did not took her seriously and not that really into it, sometimes, me and my siblings will even tease her like, now it's time for mom to talk about Nicky Cruz again...
And here I am today, listening and watching this. It breaks me into tears here alone in my room. God loves us even in our darkest moments. God loves sinners and he will always welcome us with his open arms no matter how sins we are. The real unconditional love! Thankyou Jesus!

Amen, Beauty! :-)
One of the most powerful testimonies of all time. When my sisters and I met him in SanBernardino my sisters started crying the anointing of God was so strong on him. It’s amazing to see his full testimony at the Return 2020 on RUclips. Praise God . It’s the fiery message we need fo this hour with all the satanic cults trying to destroy our children and our country.
Yes. Not much is out there with such a touch of the Holy Spirit in our time.
Thanks for the rcomend
Looked like a fantastic meeting, would of been amazing being in the building!!
David Wilkerson was an amazing man of God
This is beautiful beyond words. “Jesus, please help me!!!” What a precious cry. May David Wilkerson’s obedience live on. Bless Nicky’s ministry.
What the enemy meant for evil GOD TURNED AROUND FOR GOOD!!! Praise God!!!
Yea, yea, Amein.
I love Nicki Cruz's tears
They are so beautiful. It is written in the WORD OF GOD that our tears are in jars in Heaven. This is a great blessing the tears of the saints are a fragrant odor to the LIVING GOD. PRAISE HIM. THE LORD loves a repentant man.
Run Baby Run was one of the best books I ever read. I was only 13 and i couldn't put it down. He proved that violent men can change
Amen
Amen anything is possible with God,i remember 21yrs ago my sister in the Lord had his video & i watched it for the first time & it blew my mind!Also there will never be another God fearing man like David wilkerson wow he was a mighty man of God!!
PRAISE the LORD for HIS mercy and Grace to ALL of us!!!
Amen Gods power
Same here
Thank you Father God for allowing me to see this video pop in to my account. So grateful.so thankful for Jesus Christ my savior and Lord
This was and still the most powerful testimony, today when ever I feel bad or ended up in jail I always remembered nicky how GOD changes his life, man i keep falling, but always prayed for my wrong doing, I really hope that one day I will walk with our lord JESUS, all I know is that JESUS kept me alive all these years 🙏 but all my wrong doing there's always conviction not in court or law it's me and the lord, I had a pretty rough childhood, when I was 16 years old I live on the streets I've incounter alote of crazy violent stuff, but by the grace of GOD I'm still here thank nicky most of all thank you lord for sparing my life because of the movie I saw run baby run,
His story is so glorious. The Cross and the Switchblade is one of my favorite books. His story touches my soul every time I hear it. My mother and father lived in NY when Nicky’s story was unfolding. My mother was pregnant with me when Nicky got saved. My father is also Puertorican. So, his story is very special to me. God had His hand on Nicky from the beginning. I love when Pastor David told Nicky “Jesus loves you” and Nicky with such enormous hatred (due to fear and his hardness of heart) threatened to cut him to pieces. . And Pastor David said, “If you cut me up, Every piece will cry out “Jesus loves you”. God got Nicky in that instance. He was a gonner LOL from that moment. You can’t kill love! AMEN
My next favorite event was when Pastor Dave gave the gang members, one of which was Nicky, the job of collecting the offering.
God reeled Nicky in on that back stage ❤️🤗
"You can't kill love!"....LOVE IT, THANK YOU FOR SHARING, GOD BLESS YOU. 👑➕🕊
@@wingedinfinity6715
WOW! Thanks YES YES YES
Now 3 yrs later in 2021, this came across my YT feed! ❤️❤️❤️ somewhere I have one of the original “Run, Baby, Run” publications written in the early 1970s which I have read more than once! this story never ceases to amaze me and I just love love love his story. And so recently I was looking into his story again here on RUclips.
So Today, Wednesday, September 29, 2021, I will get these (3) books I ordered from Amazon,
“Run, Baby, Run”, “The Devil Has No Mother: Why He's Worse Than You Think- But God is Greater” and “One Holy Fire: Let the Spirit Ignite Your Soul”…… each written by Nicky Cruz. I have never read the last two. I know they will be powerful and inspiring.
But …….Nicky sure does not look 80 yrs old!!!
💞🙏God bless you, Maria!
Praise God, and pray for those addicted to legal marijuana and the politicians who made it that way. 🙏🇺🇸
God's grace is big enough for every person!!
What a wonderful brother in Christ! His message is timeless...may he be blessed for many years!
Nicky you are proof of what the Blood of Jesus can do. Amazing Amazing. Jesus you are so good.
That night I gave my life to Jesus still going strong next year saved my mum she went to Heaven April 2018 what a testimony I have amazing God is real people God work’s stay close to him no matter what he will do it all guide your footsteps each day thank you JESUS Rejoice it’s amazing 😉😁💜💜 I AM SO IN LOVE WITH JESUS
I Read his book "Run Baby Run" when I was 14 ,I hadn't even heard of Nicky ,the book was one of the best i ever read, i couldn't put it down. I have such respect for Nicky ,he was very violent but was saved by Jesus. God Bless you Nicky Cruz
I too read Nicky's story in Run Baby Run at about 14. No one could be more opposite Nicky than I was. I was brought up in a fine Christian home where the Bible and prayer were a regular part of my life. I was born again when I was 5. BUT years later I knew that my Christian walk would never make it...never hold up... in my world of 1960's teenage temptation. Just like Nicky and just as badly as Nicky I needed a REAL POWER that could make me someone that I wanted to be but could never be on my own. Reading Run Baby reassured me that the POWER that transformed Nicky was available to sustain me although our circumstances were different. THAT POWER is what life is all about.
I visited colorado Springs in 1993 AND CALLED to nick Cruz Ministries..
For me surprise he was right in MARACAZINHO GYNASIUM (in my country - BRAZIL)...
GOD BLESS HIM AND HIS FAMILY AND HIS MINISTRY
I really love the testimony of Nicky Cruz
To God be the glory hallelujah hallelujah 🙏🏻😇😇❤️❤️❤️
There's nothing but the blood of Jesus can washed our sin.
My favourite testimony so far.. can't hold back my tears everytime i hear about it
I love this guy he's for real 👏👏🙏🙌
This is a marvelous personal story that led to the conversion of Nicky Cruz. I read the book written by David Wilkerson when I was first saved and recall saying to myself that I wanted to be used like that, to have such boldness as he. My heart has always leaned more toward the ministry of reconciliation than teaching or other offices, and the Lord has used me to lead others to Him.
I wish this particular service had been given, not in a church assembly, but outdoors, where the unsaved could hear it, but this is the way so much of today's evangelism is taking place, within the confines of a church, unlike the courageous approach David Wilkerson was so willing to take, to the point of not worrying about his own death. Street preaching is much needed today. We can't hide in buildings any longer, We must get outside, to walk the streets, to approach strangers, to be bold enough to proclaim the Good News to anyone.
Amen! We must go where the lost are like Jesus did! Go into the high ways & hedges,wherever the lost are & call them into Jesus' Kingdom of Love!
Hi
Yes!
The building stifles the Holy Spirit. It engenders a religious spirit that glues people to the spot! They can’t take it in! They want to stay put and just sing hymns, go home and watch the soccer!
But Jesus wants ALL OF YOU ALL OF THE TIME!
Shalom to us only in Christ Yeshua returning soon to reign over His Creation from Jerusalem forever.
Got saved because a Baptist Church girl gave away a copy of his book, Run Baby Run in advance of him visiting in Fort Lauderdale. I was 16. Met him at the church outreach 1972, i couldnt stop crying.
Amazing book! Was the first one i read by nicky cruz aswell. I loved it so much i read the second book (Devil On The Run) in one night. The 3rd book (Soul Obession) i came across that book many years later. I really wanna get the other book he wrote called Holy Fire. Nicky Cruz and David Wilkerson have done so much for God, they are two of my biggest inspirations, along with Oral Roberts and Prophet Deckard.
Daniel T muy impactante su testimonio
7hilladelphia. you sure are lucky ,I would have loved to meet Nicky ,
@@luckyduck6710 No, not luck, blessed only. I found in a Bible dictionary that luck is an idol people worshipped. Behind every idol is a demon.We can become used to using words of the culture and lose the meaning words like blessed, children not kids, knock on wood etc. I hear some say God has a dream for you. Proplem, God doesn't dream and saying He does brings God down into human acts.
Merritta Scott, It's a figure of speech ,saying something like " You sure are lucky to have met him" I also say "Kids" , sorry but you're too PC for me. I've used the word "Kids" and "children" i also believe luck is real otherwise the word wouldn't exist .and with great respect ,how do you know the lord didn't dream? he did come to earth as a Man and Men dream. So why wouldn't our lord Jesus as a man not dream? And I've used the term "Knock on wood" and would tap my head joking ar times and many times touching wood. its just terms we use, no harm in them.
ALMIGHTY GOD, Thank you for your love and forgiveness which is more powerful than all evil. God bless those who need you so very much, yet have turned away from you. LORD, let them be convicted and surrender their lives to You and You alone. Praise be Yours. Thank You for Your GREAT LOVE. January 13, 2020 - Carol from Cleveland, Ohio
To Niki Cruz. David Wilkerson spoke many times of you. 😥. I feel your old pains. I ❤️ u. All praises to MOST HIGH!!! Mr Wilkerson keeps me in tears also. But guess where he is now,,, 😇😇. Jesus broke the curse of hell and death!!!!
I read about Nicky Cruz when I was 14 in England. I never knew anything about gangs and America. Fast forward 40 years later I am walking with Jesus and lived in the US for 7 years. My daughter and son are half Hispanic. They've grown up to hear about Nicky from me. It's delightful to hear his testimony on RUclips
Thanks to the Technology, I heard about him since the time television was hardly there in my town, now I can see him on U Tube , Hallelujah!!! May God Almighty be with you Nicky
Wow Nicky Cruz. It's your story that ledt me to the Lord. I saw the "Cross and the Switch Blade when I was 6 years old. I was with my mom at the movie's . I was too young to understand the movie but I remember it touched my heart and ivalways remembered the movie. Years later I saw it on video and the Holy Spirit brought it back to my attenuation. It was then that the Lord started working on my heart
The first time I heard Nicky Cruz I was living in Denver,Colorado in 1970 working for Teen Challenge on the weekends winning Souls for Jesus We had a Coffeehouse and would invite them to rap about Jesus,I had just been transformed the year before from committing suicide ......and had read The Cross and the Switchblade it Bless me and God is Awesome win Souls for Jesus Kingdom the last Harvest before He comes in the Clouds...😊✝️🌷🌻👍
So you are 50 years christian...
Prise jesus you didn't lose your life as its the temple of God
The first time i am watching something from Nicky Cruz, because John Ramirez spoke about him, that he is special, and he really is. I couldn´t stop crying,laughing and then praying and worshiping God.I grew up similar with my Dad who was a badly alcoholik and very physical abusive. And it is really like he said, when you are young and you face that kind of things, you tell yourself and confess that you show no love and there is no love because you never felt it. But Lord Jesus is King and pure love !!! God bless us all 1 Love Rob
I could listen to him over and over. I heard him tell this at Lee College in the 90s. God Bless him.
The blood of Christ protects me
The first time I heard Nicky Cruz was in Denver,Colo. in 1970 I was living there and worked with Teen Challenge on the weekends on the streets of Denver,Colorado and won Souls and invited them to our Coffeehouse to rap with them about Jesus,I had just been transformed by Jesus from committing suicide the year before in Delaware,Ohio with Evangelist Leroy Jenkins and then had read the Cross and the Switchblade......God is Awesome let Him take You on a Trip to win Souls for the Last Harvest before Jesus Comes in the Clouds!!!😊✝️🌷🌻👍
Deus lhe abençoe.

Please pray for Michael and Brian and Brian 7 children. Brian’s two youngest are in DCF care, a 2 year old and a preemie. The two year old Damien is despondent and not eating. Please Jesus save this family.
I bought dozens of David Wilkerson's book about Nicky Cruz and how he came to the Lord. This was the Jesus movement 1970's Jesus changes lives by His incredible love.
That is the same way I came to Christ when I was a teen...my church had a Easter play where Jesus was crucified and I started crying and crying when I was at the altar giving my life to Christ
Thank You Jesus!
Bellísimo Testimonio que llega al corazón una y otra y otra vez ....y una nunca vuelve a ser la misma...Bendiciones al infinito Nicky Cruz y Familia.......Alabado y adorado eres Señor Jesús de mi alma
Amazing!!! Glory to GOD!!!
Alleluia to the lamb of God
Holy Spirit do your work❤️
I ADORE JESUS! After everything was cooled down AND New York had won the World Series, the LORD took me street preaching on 42nd street in the Big Apple! Glory! 💓💓💓 JESUS is coming again SOON! Love GOD, and love His people to be ready to go back with Him when HE returns! HALLELUJAH!
Extraordinary testimony,Nicky ,si mis Ojos pueden ver esto ,y mis oidos ,oir este testimio...Pues nunca dudo q DIOS haga un milagro en mi vida,y la de mis hijos....
I loved the book. I read it as a teenager and kept it until my husband accidentally got it into a box of his books that he gave away. I hope it is still blessing someone else.
Garden scroll. I love the book also.I read Cross and switchblade as a teenager. Let someone borrow it haven't seen it since. Then a few Years ago I went to visit my son for a few days. He had the book and gave it to Mr. I gave it to my Grandson to read. I'm guessing he has passed it around also
Amazon has the book and I will be ordering it. I will never get tired of this book. God Bless you and yours.
I love Nicky 👍🙏❤️✝️🇬🇧
The service was powerful. We in the western world really don't know how to worship God like the Chinese people. It is too bad that just a few people were in engaged in real worship. What thoes people nearly need is a holy ghost revival and it could have happened right there while NICKY was preaching and in the worship. We have it so good in Canada and the States. It makes me sad to see the solemn faces of the people on this video.
Thank you Lord Jesus Christ blessed be your name always, Amen.
Amen.God can do anything..God bless you
God bless you Nicki!!! Lots of love and hugs from Phoenix, AZ. to you and your beautiful family, my sweet Brother in Christ!!!💖🤗💕
Read the Cross and the switchblade and followed that with 12 Angels From Hell, best 2 books I have ever read. I read those in 1967. The day before I got married, my now husband and I were privliged to see and hear David Wilkerson. He spoke on daughters hating their mothers. I had reason to hate mine. I was able to forgive her that day. I will always be thankful that we went to hear him. May he rest in peace.
Nicky Cruz hasn’t died.
Helen is referring to David Wilkerson passing
Amen All Glory to our Lord Jesus Christ
Praise the lord thanku jesus
Wow God really soften this man's heart
Isaiah 49:16
You are My Servant
…15“Can a woman forget her nursing child, or lack compassion for the son of her womb? Though she may forget, I will not forget you! 16Behold, I have inscribed you on the palms of My hands; your walls are ever before Me. 17Your builders hasten back; those who laid you waste will depart.
I read run baby run 15 years ago & today I see Nicky cruz, thank you Jesus.
I was scrolling..this video came up..I had heard of Nicky..thank you Lord for the reminder..of where you brought me from..By mercy and grace.
It brought tears to my heart and eyes..when all God's children were singing without music..beautiful.
Amazing grace ,beautiful story
Ohhh wow what an amazing testimony I couldn't stop crying 😢 amen God truly had a plan for Nicky Cruz 🙏
Nicky Cruz, one of my heroes!
Hallelujah my wonderfull king jesus thank u my father 4 setting me free tonight hallelujah my king hallelujah hallelujah♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️😃😃😁😎😘🥰😉
when i first turned on this service and i saw the beautiful singing but when i observed the audience i could not believe the somber faces. i thought it was my imagination until Nicky Cruz brought it up. Wake up and Praise the Lord!
I don't even knew what to feel, where is their joy of the Lord?! their culture is in them so deep they can't let go.... Nicky had to tell them what to do..
Northern Irish are quite solemn, tough too.
I love JESUS!!
Oh Lord
Let us all know You Love us
Amen 🙏
He sido impactado por este testimonio ...
I remember Way back it was Nicky helped me change in the 70 s I didn't like to read but I road the grayhound bus back to see my sister in Indiana
I found three books in the grayhound station Ashland Oregon and reading them all the way and finished them when I got to Indiana
I loved every bit of them
Think you Nicky
Still a powerful testimony and miracle story of conversion, Nicky has never forgotten the glorious power of forgiveness he experienced. Thank God that DW obeyed God and went in faith to NY simply trusting that God had called him to reach souls. God give us Men who will have an ear to hear and a heart to obey, the great commission has not changed…go into all the world and preach the Gospel. Thanks Nicky great ministry 👍
Forgiveness is What Jesus gave to us! We must forgive others.
Thank you for GOD'S PRECIOUS LOVE
Is there anything too hard for God to do the viler the sinners the richer the blood👏👏👏
Blessed be the name of the Lord.. Jesus! 😍👍Halelluiah!
Dear Brother Cruz, I was very young when I read the book The Cross and The Switchblade and it was very powerful. I watched the movie twice it also was very powerful and anointed. Tonight your testimony touched my heart. The Holy Spirit was all over me as you told your story, tears running down my face as I praised God for His Amazing grace. I consider Pastor David Wilkerson as one of my Pastors. I still listen to his RUclips sermons. They are all very rich and the wonderful richness is in you. God Bless you Brother Cruz
great friend and brother.
thanks for bringing this up ..!
God is great.
Thank you Lord for what you did in this mans life. I heard Nicky Cruz speak in Cardiff in the 90s, his story is so amazing.
I was blessed to work beside you praying for others in the play run baby run seeing somebody lies turned around so many people healed I thank God for the privilege of working beside you and you came back again in Milwaukee for the street minister and we went out and we talked to everyone in the streets gang members I remember everything that you said and how many witches were delivered what a awesome moment that was here when you spoke of AIDS before AIDS was even popular before it even came out to be what it was you told us that will know someone there was a man who came to our church pastor Andre's Church on the ver forget it because he could barely walk he was limping all the way there the next day he was running and jumping and skipping I'm so glad he decided to give his life to Jesus salvation is all I want for everyone who will listen to me
Amen Nicky. Black, white or other, we all bleed red... as Jesus did on the Cross.
Love you Nicky God bless u more and more🥰😘💒💒💒⛪⛪✝️✝️✝️
I am wrong to strong. Not just today but everyday. Today I choose to follow christ. To forgive those who have hurt me and in return those who I have hurt. I will no longer play a victim to my circumstances but use what God has showed to help and teach others. I will no longer let the devil tell me that I deserve to suffer. I fully acknowledge that the same devil that makes you sin is the same one that makes you feel guilt and shame after. I pledged to take my walk with Christ as a priority in my life and learn to love myself. I pledge to work daily at study and walking in the spirit. Wrong choices do not defined you. Unless you allow it to. Today and everyday I choose to be wrong to strong because God made me in his Image and told me I love you today I pick up my cross ✝️ thank you Jesus. Faith family and fitness 🙏 WRONG TO STRONG #DISCIPLINE 🙏🏼📖🛡🗡💪🏼
Most powerful testimony! God bless and use him mightily!
Thanks for uploading this video and for the wonderful verse, "But if wicked people turn away from all their sins and begin to obey my decrees and do what is just and right, they will surely live and not die." from Ezekiel 18:21. In fact, we'll make it our Verse of the Day.
Read the book in 1976 when I was 18.
In Jesus name we pray!!!!HE says .. .
Leí Corre Nick Corre cuando adolescente , impactante.....escuchar su testimonio por el mismo es ver la gloria de Dios manifiesta ! Transformando vidas sin parar ese es nuestro Dios Vivo y Real!
Run baby run was the first book I ever read I could read untill I was 18 God must have put his hand on my mind to help me. I was gang banging for years after I read the book but his story was the first thing I ever heard that made me think twice about my own ways
God touched your Heart through that book. Keep going with that, there are no coincidences and you are here for a reason. Only Love matters, and only God brings True Love. Pray for God to speak to you more, open the bible randomly....to any spot, read whatever you land on, then go in your closet and ask God to speak to you. And be ready for miracles, they will come in ways you cannot imagine. God already knows what you need, He knew you before your were born. He is your Heavenly Father and His power is immeasurable. Prayers for you, God Bless you. 👑➕🕊
Such a powerful testimony
