    hey, sis! let's chat - it's testimony time! just like the healed man in Mark 5, when we share our testimony of justtttt how far the Lord has brought us, it has the power to change other's lives and if nothing else, encourage them to keep pursuing Him! so let's share 🫶 in the comments below share with us the short version of your testimony or a recent testimony of something the Lord has done for you.
    for me: most of you are familiar with how I came to know Christ but the testimony of this past year in the realm of friendships is one that I hold near and dear to my heart. God has know my heart for like-minded wives and familes to do life with here in Atlanta and let's just say it's been a JOURNEYYY mmkay, but once i truly surrendered that area of my like to Him and trusted that in His perfect timing, all the "no"s started to make sense and more than that, I was GRATEFUL for them! my husband and I have made some incredible new friends this year who have so much in common with us that we know it could ONLY be God and that's why I think He delayed - to make sure He got ALLL the glory.

    I spent my entire life dedicated to getting good grades. It was the only way I knew how to help my mom and change our situation in the long run. Senior year came around, and I couldn't get into any of the schools I applied to. Despite my grades, extracurriculars, and scores; I was rejected by 17, and waitlisted by 1. It may seem trivial for some but I spent my entire life trying to be and do the best so that I could get into college. After it appeared that all hope was gone, I planned to take my life after graduation... But God!! He cared more about my life than I ever did and sent someone to literally save me from myself. Through a community of angels, I was accepted into a college bridge program without ever applying and became the first in my family to receive a college degree. So from that moment on, I dedicated my life not to academics, but to God.

    I moved to my homeland to fulfil my dream of working abroad where I ended up constantly bullied, contemplating of giving up and going back home I turned to the Lord every week praying for his help, protection and guidance. At the end I did an amazing six years in the company winning promotions and making an impact. Thank you Jesus for the blessings. You are good. 🙏

    God has brought me a mighty long way and he is nowhere near finished yet! He has healed me from a life filled with abandonment, pain, and struggle. When he reached his hand out to me, I was severely depressed, hopeless, and lost. I took hold of his hand and I have never let go. It has been a beautiful journey. Not always easy but always worth it!

    I've been wanting to work since months. But at each step, an obstacle presented. God defeated them one by one, on His own timing. I started a new job last week. I would never believe I would get a job like that. My eyes were set on something else. I can God working throught it all. He made sure I know it is Him, not me. You may only see the next step, but He already knows the destination. You can trust Him, and His No's because His Yes is coming and is way better.

    I recently broke up with my boyfriend, that I thought I would be with forever. God told me I cannot be with him, because he is not a believer in Christ. During our relationship I found myself being ashamed of the Gospel, not going to Church, reading the Bible, or praying. Each day I felt more and more sick without a relationship with God, I felt dirty, and I lost myself. I am so excited for the character building plan that Jesus has for me, I am reading my Bible consistently and understanding it for the first time, going to Church, and I have found friends who believe in God. I’ll be honest, it is hard, I love that man, but I can’t be with him, and I trust God.

    Hi, I just turned 18 a week ago and Ive been dealing with lust issues since 12 years old. I used to be a dancer when I was young but I stopped due to insecurity, which made me fall into lust more. Recently, my passion for dance and music started to deepen and Ive just been really emotionally drained trying to figure out if this seed was from God or the enemy and this video just really helped clear up the confusion. I know now that God allowed me to reflect on dance/music so that I can appreciate who I used to be and move forward with who I am now for His glory. Im still dealing with lust, but He is showing me that waiting and trusting on Him will get me through all things. I hope this helps someone around my age or younger feel better about dealing with lust with God. God bless whoever sees this ❤❤❤

    I was molested as a child and ended up living a homosexuality lifestyle in early adulthood. I was also a chronic weed smoker and sex addict but God delivered me in my dorm room and has continued to grow me closer to Him through Jesus Christ. It is a step by step journey but He is so diligent in His pursuit of my mind, will, and emotions. I am now married to the love of my life and best father on earth. We have two beautiful children together and God is the glue that keeps us. God used my husband as a vessel to minister to me and cover me and I am forever grateful and even shocked that the Lord cares for me so much ❤️ 🙏🏽

    Hey everyone! I wanted to share my recent praise report as I have grown up in church but just started truly building my relationship with God and surrendering to his will in the last 2-3 years (im 23). I have been praying for God to reveal my church home and I finally found it (Social Dallas) and I’m so grateful ! It was all in his timing . And I also began to pray for him to reveal my spiritual gifts and show me how to operate them for his glory and he revealed 5 gifts through a quiz I took at my new church which all seem to be very accurate and also led me to serve in a ministry that was on my mind before taking the quiz. I’m so grateful to serve a God that aligns our desires with his just so he can answer each and every prayer because it’s according to his will . I now understand Matthew 7:7 more than ever . I’m so excited and I never want to stray again or do life without my father ! I hope this encourages someone . Have a blessed day❤️❤️

    My testimony is, when i was sixteen i lost my mother and i eventually fell into depression,i started drinking and hanging out with the wrong people even getting into relationships that did nothing but break me even more because all i wanted to do was fill the void that was left inside my heart. After six painful years i gave my life to Christ and thats when i realised that all i needed was Jesus to help me overcome the depression and pain... Now that i know, i always turn to Jesus when im at my lowest because he's the only one that can complete me .❤

    I was heavy smoker and an alcoholic for most of my teen years, always clubbing and was struggling with lust. Jesus saved me. It’s been about 3 years without smoking, almost 11 months without a sip of alcohol and since my deliverance I’ve felt so much lighter and free. God is good.

      I will pray for you to hear God's voice on what next steps you need to take to move forward in your life. I've been struggling for over a year with feeling stuck in one place and too worn down to move forward. I finally broke free about a few weeks ago from my own personal limbo. I am taking baby steps right now forward and it feels great to finally be unstuck. I know God is finally giving me a green light for things to move forward. I actually talked with my Mom and broke down and told her everything going on in my life. I've never done that before with her. She actually came to my rescue after feeling like noone cared about me and what was going on. To be honest, she had no idea how bad my life had got and just finally taking that step to talk to her from my heart really helped and God moved in a major way because I finally took that step to reach out to someone.

      Right before seeing this video, i had been praying to God to restore a relationship i had just lost. This relationship was everything i had wanted my marriage to look like, it had to come to an end because of our genotypes.
      I saw this comment and I broke down cos this is where I am. But this is also a confirmation for me because I just read and highlighted Galatians 6vrs 9 in my bible. I pray for strength to accept this no from God and not get weary.

    This has happened to me, I used to work in a all male maximum security prison. One day I broke my ankle this ended my career in an instant. I tried so hard to go back into law enforcement but every time I never got the job. I asked God why? One day I was on RUclips and something drew my attention, a short video with Jesus Christ in the video. The title said “you were in danger” that has stuck with me ever since I saw it. I was in danger in that job so he broke my ankle in order for me to get out of there.

    My testimony is this: I was an international student in Wisconsin and had tried my best to land an internship and a job while I was there. I got rejected at least 100 times when I was in my Sophomore year and ended up landing the best internship ever in Germany. Then during my senior year, I tried my hardest to get a job but got rejected so many times I lost count. The jobs I landed were impossible for me to accept because either accommodation or commuting issues. It was almost like every door was closed. It was not meant for me to stay in the US. Then I applied for Master's in the UK. I did not put as much effort into my Master's application as I did for the jobs. Surprisingly, I got accepted to 3 out of all 3 colleges I applied to. That moment I realized why God closed some doors. It is because He is opening other doors. I am now back in my hometown in Asia and have a great career and beyond thankful. Every time I am doubting God's "no", I remind myself of this experience.

    At the age of 16, I had Tuberculosis and my left lung was affected badly, I was in grade 11 I couldn't write my final exams, I thought I was gonna die that year but my sister used to pray with me and we'll cry out to God every night. My family was really affected by me being sick, I couldn't walk and I couldn't eat well I'd just have mashed potatoes and green apples that's all I could eat at that time. Fast forward to when I passed my grade without even writing my final exams, that was a miracle then I was in grade 12 still sick but I managed to pass again
    God is really good and He's just a good and loving Father.
    The people from church were also praying for me, I'm grateful that God heard their prayers 😢😢❤

    Thank you so much for such a timely message. I have been sitting on a testimony for almost 3 weeks because of feelings of embarrassment because it took me so long to achieve what I've achieved and also because it hasn't brought opportunities I was expecting - but lately I have been lead to share it.
    In 2018 during the final year of my law studies I was diagnosed with cerebral thrombosis, after a month long hospitalisation I blamed God and backslid. I managed to complete my studies in record time and started my articles (practicals) in 2019, fast forward to the second and final year of my articles, I was placed on temporary disability leave because of another brain illness that the doctors missed in 2018😅 - it was in 2019 that I came back to Christ but was mostly lukewarm. I was off work for most of 2020 (during this time I started to seek God more, it was an emotionally and mentally straining period), so I only finished my articles in September 2021 (8 months overtime). At this time I still had one board exam outstanding and was now unemployed - i moved back home, sold my car and was really depressed. This was when i decided to pursue God wholeheartedly and denounced ancestral worship (my beliefs remain an issue of contention with my mother).
    May 2022 i was impatient and decided volunteer at a small law firm, i then passed my final exam and continued working (they offered me a job after a month of volunteering) but the process of being qualified as an attorney was moving super slow. At this new job i was treated horribly, it made the bad treatment that i was subjected to at my previous job (after my return from disability leave) seem trivial (mind you i had suicidal thoughts while i was at my previous job). I continued pursuing God and i would fast for things to get better at this new job - sis they only got worse 😂😢. 2023 i joined the sisterhood connect group at church and here my relationship with God grew and i finally felt at home. Things at work got worse - my boss was now verbally abusive but i stayed. The process to qualify was moving a bit and i finally sent my docs to the council in April (this was part 1 by the way and it was supposed to take only two weeks for them to authorise - disclaimer: it took over 2 months😅). In May I realised that it was time to leave my job, i kept applying for other opportunities to no avail. I was called for an interview beginning of June but that didn't work too. I decided to stay, again! Mid June a lady I worked with resigned after we were all told how useless we are and how we are not working (I was told this many times before), her resignation made me feel like a coward and as though I was doubting God's ability to take care of me. During the last week of June my boss was telling me about my incompetence because what he wanted me to was legally wrong and would make us waste clients money - i did not want to do it. I was in a really bad place at this point and even failed my notary exam oral. For the month of May and June my prayer points were for a job and courage to leave.
    June 30th, my 28th birthday I was supposed to have a conversation with my boss about the file in issue (he had asked me to do research that would prove him right, sis it didn't exist and I was not looking forward to being shouted at on my birthday). He was busy for most of the morning so he did not call me in, I was also praying cause I was really anxious and it was then that I drafted my resignation letter. At work we celebrate birthdays so they ordered lunch and thankfully even during the lunch he didn't attack me, it was actually the best birthday lunch I'd attended at work, so I didn't resign. I contemplated all weekend and decided not to send the resignation letter, I wanted to save up some cash before leaving. Come Monday morning, July 3rd as I preparing for work and was listening to prayer vidoes on RUclips, it then automatically prayed a sermon by Ps Tony Evans titled "Trusting the God you believe in". I went back an fourth about whether to go to work and even tried reasoning that I will go for just one week to see if things get better or not; I decided not to go, sent my letter and lost a couple of friendships that I'd built with my colleagues. Within two weeks of resigning, I received my authorisation etter from the council. August I sent admission (as an attorney) documents to my principal, September I was allocated a court date for admission and my admission papers were sent to the council - September came with a lot of spiritual and financial attacks but i soldiered on. October 12th I was admitted as an attorney. This journey took 4 years of varsity, almost 3 years of articles, an additional two years of applying for admission, 8 attempts at board exams, multiple hospitalisations but God made it happen. I am also grateful to God for health because I haven't been hospitalized since I left my previous job.
    I am now applying for jobs and i have been struggling with doubt because i thought admission was the door that would open a door of employment - but i know now that my focus was on the wrong thing because it is God who will open up doors for employment. The past two years have been gruesome but I wouldn't trade how I have grown in my relationship with God for anything. I am staying at home now and my mom constantly tries to sway me away from God to ancestral worship but I am choosing to keep my faith.
    Sorry it's a long story, thank you for reading.

      Continue to worship the one true God Yahweh and pray for your family’s deliverance. Pray, fast, intercede that God will not only do miracles on your situations but that he will take your family from false idol worship! ❤️ the fact that he opened up one door with your obedience just means to continue being obedient and he’ll show you more along the way.

This season has been tough from job loss to bouts of depression along with raising a high school junior student athlete who was injured in accident. God’s no’s are truly connected to His glory & knowledge of what is to come as well as what is right now. Ty so much Melody for being obedient sis and posting videos for us on this journey with God.

    I was convinced that I knew who I was going to marry. I got so caught up, that it became idolatry. I would even have moments of clarity but would deceive myself because it was what my heart wanted. The Lord brought me to a new season and has been stripping some things off of me. I no longer desire to be with this person and just want to focus on the plans that God has. I honestly believe the Lord is trying to heal me and my low self worth. I want Jesus to be enough. The process hurts but I'd rather give up my desire than to put someone above my savior any longer.

I wasn’t getting paid getting for my labor or people coming against and lol the pandemic. God used people around to redirect me to his purpose of going back to school. Now it has not been easy but the Lord has guided me through this program and I am taking my last finals Wednesday and Thursday so everyone please pray for me. God can change any situation but the initial No is hard, something that I have come accustomed to saying to the Lord is “ if it is your will for my life❤

    God has definitely brought me through; He took me out of darkness and into His light. I basically grew up in church, but then began liking boys, getting picked on at school, and then hanging around the wrong groups of people including family. I then began to start smoking and generally doing things that I shouldn't have. There was a night during Winter break 2022, when the Spirit of God led me to watch a sermon by Pastor Mike Todd called, "Cuffed to the Clock," in short, it talked about how we always think we have one more time to live the way that we want and in reality... we don't. Now I don't do the things I used to! I do still struggle, but I'm still in the making. I am going through a season of waiting and I have a bit of depression and anxiety; but God will bring me through this too, even though I've been a bit impatient😭. Anyway, that's a bit of my testimony! God bless!

I felt as if I had to squeeze myself into their lives and it got so bad that I had to let them go because our values weren’t alining anymore 🥺. I felt so lonely and undesired as a friend during that season.. However through prayer and patience (2 years) God has finally answered my prayers and sent be equally yoked friends and I couldn’t be more happier 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
    Don’t get me wrong I still had loving people around me.. it was just not people that would be part of my mini circle…

    I am currently going through a lot right now BUT as I am going through now I am reminded of how Faithful God has been to me. I got pregnant at 14 and gave birth to my son at 15. I was scared but God kept me. He kept my family and we raised my son. I was able to graduate high school on time with honors, attend 4 year university and graduate in 4 years. At times I wanted to give up but God kept me. Even throughout raising my son, He made a way- from my job to the people I crossed paths with. He is just amazing. My son is 24 now. I thank God for the ups and downs even what I’m going through currently. Just yesterday it came to me that in this season I am going through a stripping process. The things that I idealized/idolized are coming down one by one. Jesus must be the center of your life if we are true believers. I just say Thank you God! When it is time I will come back and share my testimony of this season.

    God said, "No" to a job i went for that was paying $60,000 more than my present salary. I went through three rounds of interviews and was on tge last round. I did not get the job and i was SHOCKED😮. I knew i got it and started formulating my resignation letter.
    Well, God then put in my heart that THERE’S MUCH MORE GOOD he wants me to do at my present job. He’s not done with me where i am presently. This was hard to swallow, but i collected myself and is giving my job MY BEST SELF.
    I'm at peace with his answer and thank him for his goodness, mercy, kindness, protection, provisions, and love.

He knew that where the man came from needed to hear of the gospel, so he went all the way to heal the man because it was not about the man alone but everyone connected to him, for his household or his town and God saying no to him was God drawing more ppl to himself thru the man. Thank you for your insight, this means alot.

Obviously my biggest fear was how am I gona finish this academic year without having to repeat the year? There was some practical I had to do at the hospital and I was so heavily pregnant. My entire pregnancy was bitter sweet, a lot happened. Fast forward, I gave birth late September, I wrote every single assessment, I did the Practicals and qualified to write all my exams. I'm currently in the middle of my exams and I know I'm going to passin the name of Jesus. God has sustained me.

    I recently got a ''no'' from the Lord. I was in a long distance relationship with this guy from NY and I really thought he was the love of my life. I was visiting him and things started to turn ugly, I had a feeling that he wasn't serious about me and then I started asking him questions. One night I prayed to the Lord ''If he's not the one, then please remove him from my life.'' It wasn't even 24hrs later and he was gone. I felt so lost at that point because there I was, in a hotel room completely alone. This is when the Lord showed up. I was taking the next flight home and while I was sitting in the cab to the airport all of a sudden this song started playing. It was the song ''Thank God I do'' by Lauren Daigle. The lyrics of the song described my situation and it was like as if God was speaking to me through that song. And He truly was. It ended up being 9 songs that were playing throughout my ride to the airport. It was the wildest experience. It really calmed me and made me feel better. It reminded me of the Bible verse in Psalm 34:18 ''The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.'' And that's what He did, He was there for me. Forever grateful for this experience and for God's grace. Sometimes things don't go as planned but only because God has a better plan.

    At the age of 4 I was molested by another child and from there I struggled heavily with lust and dabbled with pornography. When I graduated from High School and went to college, I begin to struggle with pornography heavily. I was addicted to it, watched it every night, and broke down before God every morning. I begged God for freedom and legitimately thought it wouldn’t come. Now I’m 4 months free because of God 🫶🏽 I was never able to do this without him. I am only clean because of him!

    But now I can't believe I was hesitant, He has healed me from depression, anxiety(still working on it but it's better) and seeking attention especially from boys, and dirty intrusive thoughts because I hung around the wrong people. He truly has given me a fresh start... and I lovee living wholly for Christ, the only decision that matters!!!

    Hey. Appreciate this lesson and the below shares much. 😊
    I was born approximately a little over 13 lbs, in a military hospital. The OBGYN, interestingly, made an error; and as I was coming out of my mother’s womb, I was paralyzed on my left side and was very ill.
    My mother and her grandmother, however, prayed and after The Most High danced with me through years of physical therapy and use of obstetric devices, He healed everything on my left side, except my shoulder.
    Now, almost three Masters Degrees and two teens later, a MRI Scan of my brain is without any blemish and is remarkable. 😊

    God has taught me to not let my emotions run me, but to surround them to the Lord. I started to realize that I was hurting people close to me when I spoke to them in my anger or anxiety. The Holy Spirit convicted me about my tongue, how there is Life and Death in it (Proverb 18:21). The tongue is the one place we have a lack of control in. We have all say or have said something we regret. Like, a flicker of flame it can set 100 acres of blazes and destroy all that is in its path. My untamed emotions and tongue caused death to some of my valued relationships.
    Just has there is death in what we say, I wanted to speak life, just like Jesus. This inspired me to want to speak about life and edification to all people. As Ephesian 4:29 say "Let no corrupting talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for building up, as fits the occasion, that it may give grace to those who hear."
    I am learning to speak when it is necessary, I don't always have to say the first thing that comes to mind. Be slow to speak, to anger and to listen more; understanding is the main purpose in communication. Let my actions speak louder than my words. I'm not where I want to be, but in God's grace and his empowerment, I am not who I used to be. The way I respond, instead of react, has changed how I love and serve others.
    If you find yourself struggling with responding in love to others. First, seek God's presence in prayer, and his words on uncontrolled emotions. Surround your will and emotions to him, and ask him to guide you in how to respond in love. Remember to wait expectedly for his response. He promises to always help you, just ask him for it. Ya'll blessed and embrace your anointing and the journey he has you on.

But God made me love him and look up for his acceptance more than I did for man! I started to love God more than anyone in my life and I started to see my value, and “all of the sudden” my husband started to value me more! When we look up for God and we make ourselves dependent on him and only him! Everything looks brighter and it’s peaceful!❤️

    I was angry and couldn't even pray anymore because i thought God failed me and abandoned me. I was depressed. I understood then what people meant when they say "I was in a dark place". For some reason all I did was listening to worship music maybe that was my saving grace. The following year I finished my studies and graduated.

    Long post : So I recently got a diagnosis that is scary for some and is going to impact my life substantially moving forward. When I first found out I took it to God and he has granted me this peace that is unexplainable. Moving forward I’ve been trying to live life to the fullest, But there have been a series of no’s and not yets. I still feel like this is my season for change, like there is a major shift coming so I’ve began to move , pray , and be still. Giving it all to God and expressing my gratitude and appreciation for whatever the outcome is. This is not easy though. It is not comfortable and it doesn’t look the way I imagine it. It doesn’t make sense to me but this message today was a confirmation post ( literally my pastor just preached about it yesterday) telling me “lean not on your own understanding, the work the lord is doing, he is FAITHFUL and ABLE to perform!”

    Im only 23 and I’ve been in multiple accidents throughout my life that should’ve killed me or paralyzed me, but here I am without a scratch. God saved me from lust, fornication, alcohol, generation curses, the spirit of Jezebel, moloch, self idolization, pride, witchcraft, the spirit of death and fear, so much more. I was lost in the world thinking I was living the Miami fun “hot girl” lifestyle and God left the 99 to find me. I should’ve lost my life last year and continued to be in the world but eventually the Holy Spirit got a tug on my heart and I haven’t been able to let go since. God has me in a period of transition right now where he’s pulled me from everyone I’m used to and is pulling me from most of the things that are familiar to me and I tried to build my identity on. He’s renewing my mind and allowing me to know who he says I am. That I’m his daughter and apart of a royal priesthood and that I’m saved!

    Hello, my name is Alexia and this is my testimony. I am a college student who is majoring in nursing. Before going to college I was working in a medical office and loved it but I knew I wasn’t going to work there forever. So, my mom encouraged me to go back to school but I felt like I wasn’t smart enough for college. Because I struggled in grade school but that was the devil filling those lies in my head. Long story short I applied and got accepted. Then on top of that started making excellent grades and got excepted on the dean’s list at my school. That was only God I never thought I could do something like that ever 😢 thank you Jesus! But going on to my last semester, about to graduate I completely failed all my classes and couldn’t get my degree. I didn’t understand and I was so hurt like why is this happening? So I couldn’t get into the nursing program and completely dropped out of college. Then I tried again at the beginning of this year to enroll at another school and I got in and had all my classes setup but God shut that door completely. Then a lot of personal stuff started to go wrong in my life basically these past two years has been rough for me but I’m keeping the faith. This time around I’m going back to my old school and finish what God started. I’ve prayed and seek him if this was the right decision and he gave me peace about it so please pray for me that I will graduate with my nursing degree in 2025 in Jesus name!! I believe God is humbling me and letting me know that I cannot do things on my own. He’s God and God alone. I’m learning to trust in him and that he has everything in control. He gets the Glory not me. And my testimony will be only God did this for me!!! 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🥹🥹
    I want to encourage someone who is going through a tough time to believe and trust God that he has everything in control. All things work together for our good. He’s a loving God that make sure he takes care of his children. God bless you all ❤ thank you for reading my testimony and hope it encourages you.

    My short version. Financial struggles had me down, especially this year. Rent went up, light bill quintupled etc. Employer gave us a raise but with the raise pay is still lower than many entry-level jobs available. In the midst of all I paid off my car in September. The same week, my car needed repairs. The last few weeks Matthew, Mark and Luke have been preached. I prayed for my loaves and fishes miracle. I went to grocery store last week, I had very little money. I was able to purchase more food than I had in several months and had money left over to get me through this week! Praise God! Dropping the mic now 🎤🙏🙏💃

    The past year has been a struggle for me and looking to find a better job to provide for my family. I have been getting so many no's and not many interviews. No matter how much I struggle each month with bills and other things I still am able to manage everything and I know that's God, and for some reason well I know why, I am just not worried because I know at the end of the day. I will still have a roof over my head, food on the table and my children and I are healthy. I want so much more for us and I know God's got me like he always has.

    Melody!! That was good. Thank you for that message. I am grateful for where I've come from and where I am now. For years I dated women, I never saw anything wrong with it. I would still attend church, I received support from family and friends. I never felt judged. I was about 27/28 I was in church and I truly felt convicted. I tried to run from it. I stopped showing up to church for a month or so. My favorite genre of music is gospel, every song I listened to that particular day made me feel convicted. I prayed and asked God what he wanted for my life? Nothing happened for days. The feeling remained. I prayed again and this time he closed the door to my usual accessibility to women. I remained in my singleness for a year to figure out my next move. I then tried to go back to what I knew (out of loneliness), but no one would answer my calls. The desire began to dissipate. I am now 36 and have no desires for women. I am grateful for my journey. I never ever thought I would be here. I've seen God do so many things and am grateful. What I love most is that he loved me through every stage of my life.

    Hey, sis! First of all thank you for blessing me with this word. I am currently facing the "NO" from God but is a "NO" that came with a "I am still with you though". So I am an asylum seeker currently in Germany and we are being deported back to Africa one by one daily, I just witnessed a friend of mine got deported while 8 months pregnant and with two kids, deported back without anything, no money, no clothes Nada. Very sad & horrific. End of october before all this started God called me to do a 3 day Esther fast, I didn't know why, I remember asking him "okay what am I supposed to pray about", I didn't get an answer But I had to be obedient and just fast. On day 3 of my fast as I was ending it God told me to read Psalm 23 before I sleep & in the morning (Everyday). Again I didn't understand why But I started doing it. Last weekend when I came to learn about the deportation I I starting crying, literally sobbing in gratitude on how God Loves me so much, He knows me yáll....he came to me to WARN me, to strengthen me before the whole deportation started. If you read Psalm 23 is God saying hey I am your shepherd, I will Alwasy lead you to greener pastures & quiet waters AND EVEN if you walk in the darkest vally I will be with you. Right now I know we might be going back home BUT God is with me, His hand is in my situation. He is working it out. And just like you said sis that it might not be how I want it to be (like remaining in Germany) But I can trust in God. I made a video on my channel explaining the deportation situation in Germany and how I am dealing with it, You can watch it here: ruclips.net/video/ydHwgoOgABA/видео.htmlsi=c7NnUolDPUOAJVmy for more clarity. And again thank you for this video it really encouraged me more. Stay Blessed and Pray for us🙏

    1st, thank you for these weekly reminders and encouragement! You are truly a blessing.
    In 2015, I was at the lowest point in my life feeling like the devil was winning on every end! I cried. I prayed & I felt like God was letting me go. I really did! I felt guilty because I knew better & in what I call my final hour. I cried & said God, I'm tired. I'm really tired. I've given everything in me I had to give & I'm hurting. The closet people will rob you of everything & feel nothing! But, when I say God's timing is like no other. Please know that there is no truer statement. He blessed beyond anything i could have ever imagined & even though I was hurting, I had to go through that for remembrance of who I truly serve. Man can take many things but God can deliver peace in the midst of any storm! Their none greater than the Lord I serve! 🙌🏾❤️

    2 mini testimonies I have recently: I have been dedicating prayer to unsaved family members that God would soften their hearts and help them to see the gospel and to present opportunities for me to share Him more. I have been praying for this more seriously over the last year and I can say I can see the fruit and seeds are being planted God is working his mysterious and amazing ways. My sister has been expressing more interest and before she was never interested. And other family members have been showing and saying things that have been making me wonder what God is doing to their hearts right now! If you have unsaved family,eep praying and asking for opportunities to show His love! Another mini testimony is that we prayed about a house we put an offer on and asked God to close the door if it isn’t the right one and moments after leaving the realtors office she told us someone had put in an offer for the house that was higher than we wanted to pay. The realtor said this doesn’t normally happen so I knew it was God! Love you all

    So glad that Mel felt led to have this be a Testimony Service here in the comments! One testimony I'd like to share is how God led me to attend a specific University. It was the furthest away from my hometown, but I felt His presence leading me there. Fast forward to today (11 years since) and I can see why God had me to go there. My attendance at this University directly aligns with the many blessings that I have today. I am forever grateful and I will choose to follow God again and again to mature in Him. It's not easy, but we gotta grow.

    The LORD delivered me from a sexual sin I had developed as a young person. I’ve been delivered about 16 years… HALLELUJAH! I told satan NEVER AGAIN & I mean that, so every time the enemy tries to come back with that mess, I let him no he has NO JURISDICTION in my life…to that point, there was an old boyfriend that tried to reconnect about 4 years ago, and the LORD said NO, DO NOT keep connecting with him. I didn’t understand why, now in this case the LORD chose to tell me why…He was KEEPING me! OBEDIENCE is way better than any sacrifice. OBEY GOD!

    The Lord saved me and my family from facing eviction!!! We have been going through alot of financial hardships over the past few years and back in August we were supposed to be kicked out BUT BY THE GRACE OF GOD WE ARE SAVED! He also showed me that he will provide us money to fix up the broken places and things in the house as well, I haven’t seen it happen yet but I know it will! God is good all the time!!!!!
