My Greatest Testimony Ever!

May 12, 2012 — 71 Comments In Featured

It is interesting how what may be a big testimony to someone may not be that big a testimony to someone else. For most of us, brushing our teeth may not be such a big thing, but just think of someone who had a stroke. The fact that today, he can brush his teeth by himself will be a great testimony for him.

Here on this blog, I want to give that opportunity to you.

What is the greatest testimony ever in your life? In less than 150 words, can you share what Jesus did for you? I believe that it will bless someone on this blog!

Jesus saved me from a terrible accident 2 years ago!
The auto i was travelling in toppled twice on a main road junction in B’lore, and not even a scratch on me, while the other 2 passengers (my friends) hurt themselves really bad.

Dr Jyothi Sara Charly

When My daughter was about 3 years old, she was looked after by my husband’s mother and my maid, during the day when I was away at my dental practice. One day she was playing in our living room all by herself, and she had the bright idea to jump on our glass dining table. The table crashed with a loud noise and the glass broke into a million pieces, with sharp dagger like edges which could have easily ripped open my precious daughter’s abdomen. Hearing the loud bang ammachi and the maid came rushing into the room. they were shocked to see the jagged glass everywhere, but my daughter was found safe in the other side of the same room. How she was transported from one corner to the other, no one knows. she did not even have a single scratch!
The morning family prayer reading was on Hebrews 1, 4 Are they not all ministering spirits, sent out to render service for the sake of those who will inherit salvation? and we were discussing about our ministering angels. I am one hundred percent sure that the Lord dispatched these angels to take care of my daughter, who was in such grave danger.
Oh the eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout all the earth to show Himself strong on our behalf, 2 chron 16:9
Blessed be His name. oh for a thousand tongues to sing our redeemer’s praise.

February 2011 my husband suddenly walked out on me and the kids. It was the scariest time of my life as I wasn’t working and didn’t know how I was going to support us. I wasn’t walking with the Lord at this time and I was full of fear and anxiety I was depressed and had suicidal thoughts. I didn’t want anything to do with God, but every night I would pray that God would change my husband’s heart and bring him home. God did something better, He made himself real to me. In April I was standing in my kitchen and He spoke to me. He told me that He would restore my marriage but I had to give myself to God. At that point God delivered me of all my fears, anxiety, depression and suicidal thoughts. I give Him all the glory. If it were not for God intervening I would not be writing this today. I’m still standing for my marriage, and I know that one day very soon I’ll be able to share the testimony of my husband being reconciled to God and back to his family. Thank you Lord for everything you have done in my life, I owe my whole life to you.

Neelima

I accepted Jesus as my saviour at the age of 12 and as i grew up i backslid but God always made sure that I was back in track with Him. When i was 22 i dedicated my life to God..but often fell back in spiritual life. i had faced many hurts emotionally and mentally i was tormented. people who I trusted the most broke my trust and several times i was in a hopeless condition bcuz of the wrong decisions i took and wanted to give up on life but each time the devil brought this thought to my mind that i am worthless and i should die Holy Spirit took over my life and reminded me that i am chosen and am bought with a price that is JESUS. Today i am strong enough to encourage a hopeless soul that JESUS IS OUR HOPE.
- kimkumar
  
  wow, loved your last sentence:
  Today i am strong enough to encourage a hopeless soul that JESUS IS OUR HOPE. May God use you to birth the hope of Jesus into the lives of others.
  - Neel
    
    AMEN!! thank u Kim..:) Bcuz that line touched you am sure you have a heart for it too..May God use u aswell for His Glory..:)

This message is dedicated to all Mother’s
HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY
For this is what the Lord says; As a
mother comforts
her child, so will I
comfort you;
( Isaiah 66:13 *NIV )
Dear
Friends,We can not measure the tremendous love that Godhas for His Children in
human terms. However, I dobelieve the closest thing on Earth to that great
love,is the love a Mother has for her child!
Therefore, on this day we honor
that special ladyin our life, our Mother. So; May your father and mother be
glad; may she who gave you birth rejoice! ( Proverbs 23:25 ) and may shebe
filled with God’s Love, Hope, Faith, and Peace todayand everyday!
The
following was sent to me by one of our Brother’s-In-Christ, some time ago. I
feel that it is appropriate toshare it with you today. It is called;Why are you
crying, Mom?
“Why are you crying?” he asked his Mom. “Because I’m awoman” she
told him. “I don’t understand,” he said. HisMom just hugged him and said, “And
you never will”……….
Later the little boy asked his father, “Why does
motherseem to cry for no reason? “All women cry for no reason”was all his dad
could say……..
The little boy grew up and became a man, still wonderingwhy
women cry…
Finally he put in a call to GOD; when GOD got on the phonethe
man said, “GOD, why do women cry so easily?”and GOD said…….
When I made
woman, she had to be special. I made hershoulders strong enough to carry the
weight of the World;yet, gentle enough to give comfort….
I gave her an
inner strength to endure childbirth and therejection that many times comes from
her children……
I gave her a hardness that allows her to keep going
wheneveryone else gives up and take care of her family throughsickness and
fatigue without complaining……
I gave her the sensitivity to love her
children under any andall circumstances, even when her child has hurt her
verybadly…
This same sensitivity helps her to make a child’s boo-boofeel
better and shares in their teenagers anxieties andfears…….
I gave her
strength to carry her husband through his faultsand fashioned her from his rib
to protect his heart…..
I gave her wisdom to know that a good husband never
hurtshis wife, but, sometimes tests her strengths and her resolveto stand beside
him unfalteringly…..
I gave her tears to shed. They are hers to use
whenever sheneeds them. They are her secret strength. They make hermore like
ME…..
FaithInGod (Nita)

Grace to you and peace from God your Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
( Ephesians 1:2 *NKJV )
A Letter From: GOD
MY DEAR CHILD, HTML,Do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and you are not your own? ( 1 Corinthians 6:19 )Now If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. Let us not become conceited, provoking one another, envying one another. ( Galatians 5:25-26 )
So watch and pray, lest you enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak. ( Matthew 26:41 ) I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh. For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, so that you do not do the things that you wish. ( Galatians 5:16-17 )
Likewise the Spirit also helps in our weaknesses. For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. ( Romans 8:26-27 ) For though I am absent in the flesh, yet I am with you in spirit, rejoicing to see your good order and the steadfastness of your faith in Christ. ( Colossians 2:5 )
WITH LOVE,Your HEAVENLY FATHER

I had my shoulder pain for 8 yrs, went to many doctors but no use. One prayer meeting of Ram Babu, he said today we will not pray for sick, just shout the name of Jesus, I shouted the name of Jesus for 2 min and my shoulder got completely healed and in that meeting many others got supernatural healing… .. Praise God… Name above all name .. Jesus

  Jesus is the most powerful name around. Glad to read your testimony
Borntofly

When I was barely 3yrs of age, a close relative started
abusing me and continued for about 12 yrs. I had a horrified childhood. When I shared
with my mother, she didn’t believe me or did anything about it. This crushed me
completely. I hated all men, my mother and myself the most. I was depressed and
suicidal. I hated God too after such terrible experiences so early in life. I
couldn’t believe that God was so cruel to allow something like that for yrs inspite
of my desperate cries. On the verge of commiting suicide, Jesus met me and then
it was a love journey with God and hardwork of His people who helped me through
my healing process. Today I testify as a new creation of God who helped me forgive
my abuser, my mother and myself and gave me a glorious hope for life!

  Hi Borntofly,
  That’s a wonderful testimony. There’s no prob that Jesus does not fix!!! Praise God!!!
  - Borntofly
    
    Praise God indeed brother Shyju ! Only God is big enough to bring a healing and transformation such as this…I run out of words to express my feelings, my gratitude and my love for God…and words can anyway never fully express what God does in our lives !
    
    Thank you so much for giving us this opportunity to share our testimonies. God be glorified !

  No matter what we’ve been through, Jesus brings us beautifully out of that pit of darkness. I can relate to you sis. I know how faithful He has been to me. His love is enough to fix all the brokenness of the heart.

“Your son is as good as dead. We have kept him on ventilator till your arrival. We need your consent to take off the ventilator”

These were the first words my father heard from the doctors on March 12, 2005. And these words were about me. My father was not able to take a decision in this matter. The ventilator which was put for 24 hours stretched for 24 days. I was still in coma, but the doctor took it off.

Over the next few days, the comments that my parents heard were these………………….
“He might survive, but he might just be like a vegetable.”
“Your son might be of an unsound mind.”
“We don’t know if he will ever get up from the bed. He might be bed-ridden for life”
“He might not have eyesight, hearing, or the ability to speak.”

These are not words a parent wants to hear.

Let me tell you how I came into this condition. I met with an accident soon after my MBA. It happened in college itself. The car that I was traveling in alongwith my friend, met with an accident on the college gate. Both of us were unconscious when we were rushed to hospital by the security guards.

Meanwhile, my parents and brother were informed and they reached Ahmedabad the next morning. This city was new to them. It was the first time they were there. But the Lord provided everything in the most amazing way.

After a month and a half, I was transferred to a hospital in Cochin as a stretcher patient. I was still in coma during this time. I spent another 50 days in hospital here. Only after making sure that I can stand up, I left for home.

After coming back home, the reality sunk in. My right side is still not alright. From a stage where my right side was paralyzed, the Lord gave me the strength to move my hands and legs. I still need a lot of improvement in my right hand. I’m still using my left hand to type. My right eye is still closed and its eye-ball does not have movements. I also lack balance.

From a stage where all thought I was dead, the Lord brought me back to life. I know that He will take me the rest of the way and give me complete healing. I ask you all to pray to our Lord God, our Father, to restore me to perfect health. He has done this miracle. He will do the rest.

Before I was leaving the hospital in Ahmedabad, the doctor said to my father “God gave your son back. So He will do the rest.” These words were coming from the mouth of a non-believer. Praise God.

How can I repay the Lord for all His goodness to me? I will lift up the cup of salvation and call on the name of the Lord.

  Wow Vinu out of words to read this! Thank God for his mercies for u. Praying for complete healing too!!!
- Mejosh Thomas
  
  Praise God for this testimony. Brother my uncle had an accident yesterday and he is in Coma and doctors said he won’t last but I am believing for a miracle and I sent this testimony to them also. By the Stripes of Jesus you are healed. Continue to confess the Word.. God is faithful

  Brother, God has been faithful and He always will be. He is healing you and I know He will heal you completely. Keep shining His light, He’ll make you completely whole.

“Choose this day whom you will serve”
My wife walked out on our marriage and ruined me financially and is now doing all she can to manipulate our 2 daughters for full custody. I was falsely accused and went to jail for 40 days, a judicial error sent me to jail for 4 days. I lost my appartement, my furniture and my job.
I presently live with my sister and I have 10 days to reorganise myself and mouve out due to my strong belief in Christ and her two disrespectful daughters.
Jesus said” pick-up your cross and follow me” it was just words, now they are living words and I chose to follow God against all odds. “though he slay me, still I will follow” is all I can meditate on.
When Jesus obeyed is Father in heaven it cost him, it cost is mother, it cost is family, it cost is friends and even a man from Arimethea. ” He is no fool who gives what he can not keep to gain that which he can never lose”. – Jim Eliot.
It is for a season, I just will not compromise until my Heavenly Father is done with me in the furnace and I know I can trust Him with my wife and daughters for full restoration.
He is no liar and His Word says ” ask anything in my name and it will be done according to his will”. In Jesus name, Amen.

Hey Guys, i want to share my testimony how Lord changed my life ….

i was born in Kerala. In the year 2000, we moved to Baroda. At first, we felt that we took a wrong step in coming to Baroda. Language problem, no relatives here and many other problems. but Lord gave us courage and will to stay in Baroda. 3 years later, we could find a church, something we were searching for in Baroda badly. i was very regular in going to church, hear the sermon. One year later i took baptism. but i still remained the same, a “SUNDAY CHRISTIAN”. this went on till 4 years… in the year 2008, God taught me a Good lesson that changed my life.. i was in 12th class.. 15th of January, was the turning point of my life… It was the Kite Flying day in Gujarat.. my mom was very ill that day and by evening her condition became more bad.. I went out in the evening 6pm to buy her some medicines.. as i was beware of the Kite Threads, i took all kind of precautions.. wore helmet, covering on the neck… i went and brought the medicine.. on the way back, i saw blood sprinkling on the mirror of my activa… i noticed that there was a thread trapped under my helmet..when i saw it, i tried to break it by hand… it did not break, but gave much injury to my hands… and the vehicle skidded and i felled near the roadside… that move brought more injury to my neck… the wound almost opened up… Blood coming out …. i cried out for help… no one came… i asked for water no one gave…. i almost saw Death coming… i prayed to God only one sentence “God, give me one more chance to live for You”. i tried to stand up… but could not.. due to weakness… i tried and tried and at last i tried one more time and this time i could stand up… i started my activa and rode 8km to Bhailal Amin Hospital… i do not know how i got that strength… Reaching the Hospital, they took me to ICU. after primary treatment, i was told that i will need a surgery.. waiting on that Bed, i heard that i was the 5th guy coming with the same complaint of neck slit by Kite thread and all the 4 died.. i was taken to the Operation Theater.. i had a surgery that went till 2 hours… The Doctor told me that i had a successful operation. i thanked him but he told me one statement “I don’t know the God you worship, but give the thanks to him, because if the thread moved little bit, it could slit my vein which helped oxygen to reach brain”. i got 112 stitches on my neck.. Though i failed my 12th due to this accident, i praise God for this incident, through which i could tell “God is faithful even if we are unfaithful…”.After that incident, i dedicated my life to Jesus. i owe to him….

The lesson i could learn from this accident was that… to make Gold pure, it needs to pass through burning Furnace… Likewise God makes us pass through many trials and troubles… only to test us that How much faith do we have on Him…

Pray for me in ur daily prayers… so that i could give my best in His Service…

God Bless u !!!

I suffered from various sicknesses from childhood. Fits was one of them and no medicine could help me, but God healed me the very second my pastor prayed over me, never did it come again. I used to be bedridden for a month atleast every year–suffering from either typhoid, mumps, fever, rheumatic fever, or some other disease. One day God gave me a word saying, “I will restore your health and heal all your wounds.” I believed the word and claimed it and from then on no such sicknesses. Praise God. Then I realized that a doctor can cure (no offense intended at all), but our God can heal AND restore. Although my faith in God as a healer increased, I still couldn’t rely on God for meeting my needs. Being in the early stages of ministry, we struggled to make our ends meet. The cylinder got over, my husband was away, and no enough money to replace it. I prayed a simple prayer and tilted the cylinder. Believe me or not, we used the same empty cylinder and cooked for more than 2 months (normally it comes for 1 month). Praise God!

I never shared this in public but now I want to so that all may know how
faithful our Beloved is. I was born in a Christian family but I
wouldn’t say I was a Christian. I was the worst child a parent could
ever have. My life was a mess. I was abused and alone. I never had true
friends or anyone I could rely on. I was corrupted on the inside. I
worshiped the world and on Sundays sang songs to God with the same
breath. I was a hypocrite who just can’t be trusted. I was a cheat, a
thief, a prodigal, a whore by heart.

I was desperately looking for love and acceptance everywhere, but never
found it. You see, I was surrounded by fake religious people and the
modern pharisees. The picture of God that I knew was a terrifying one. A
God I could never dare to approach. Though I desperately needed Him, I
always ran away from Him. I never knew childhood. I was broken. I was so
alone and filled with despair that suicide was a better option to me.
But because I was bought in a Christian family, I knew I would go to
hell, so I refrained from doing so. I was left alone by all, parents,
friends, relatives, siblings, and mostly the church. Being a girl, there
were many instances when I was discriminated against and I hated myself
for being one. I tried to act, talk and walk like a boy. I hated to
even be among girls. And the boys I knew in my family were treated
better than me, so my hatred even toward them. I always wanted to be a
boy so that I would be loved and accepted by all you know. Most of my
nights were spent weeping and fearing. I never cried before anyone and I
never knew that God saw my tears. I can’t exactly express what I was
before because it is still so blurry in my mind. It was such a confusing
time, that it troubles me even now when I think of it.

When I was 15, during vacation before my 10th std, I was alone at home
mostly. So I used to pass my time watching God tv, not for the messages
but for the songs because I loved the songs they played. In the middle I
also stumbled upon some messages that spoke to my heart. I learned that
God wasn’t the person I thought Him to be. I was told He loves me
inspite of my ugly past. Day by day I started watching more messages and
attending more conferences for I wanted to know more about the God I
once thought I knew. I don’t exactly remember the day I received Him in
my life. But I do clearly remember how He changed me. He took me, the
least of all sinners and said that He loves me. This truth changed
everything. He was my only hope and clang to Him like a frightened
child. I stopped looking out for love because I was accepted by the Lord
of all creation. First of all He made me the girl I was supposed to be.
He taught me to love and accept myself. He helped me forgive my past.
Such a wonderful love I have never experienced in my life. he helped me
forgive many whom had done wrong to me. It’s been five years now and He
still never ceases to enthrall me. He’s still training me and amazing
me. Even now there are not less times when I am hurt deeply and felt
alone, but He always bring me back. He always rescues me. He is always
wonderful.

I could just go on about the great things my Beloved is doing in my
life, but I think I’ve already written long. However, this is not even
half of how much He means to me. Without Him I am nothing. The very
thought of being away from Him is my scariest nightmare.

This I would say is my greatest testimony….that I am loved by my GOD

pianistforchrist

I grew up in a Christian family thinking i know a lot about Jesus by just going to church. When i was 14,i had a friendship problem. i cried myself to sleep for days and refused to tell anyone what i was going through. At that time,i completely left Jesus out of the picture till i was too desperate. Suddenly, i remembered what i learnt at Sunday school but i didn’t know how it would apply to my life, until now. That day,i decided to give it all to Jesus and surrender my burdens to Him, since i had no other choice. And from then on, i noticed such a great change in me. I’ve finally let go of things i hold so dearly like my friendships because i wasn’t much of a sociable person at the time so my friends meant a lot to me. Without them, i felt lonely and rejected. Even the smallest criticism would hurt me so bad because they were my source of ‘strength’. That was until i met Jesus. Everything i see is now so beautiful and I’ve learned to look at everything in His eyes. There was just this trust i never thought i’d give to anyone, what more Jesus whom i cant see. As days passed,i got to know more about my creator and it was the best time of my life. My character,dressing,appearance,every physical,spiritual,emotional,and mental part of me just changed without me even realizing! I felt that i stepped into a new world. My trust in Jesus grew more and more and the dependence i once held on to ( my friends) was now replaced with Jesus. God has opened my spiritual eyes to see things i never thought i’d see and understand what those parables meant in the bible. He brought me to a whole new world and brought this joy in my heart. And now i finally realize why people at church always seem so happy. The joy of the Lord is my strength.

1) I praise my Lord for clearing my golden( last attempt) papers. I was really tensed about my results but somewhere deep in my heart there was someone inside who me dont worry you will clear! Before i went to write my paper,I just commited my paper into Jesus’s hand’s and I begged him to help me write my paper. The day when the results were out,in my dream i suddenly started praising God for clearing all my Goldens! I could feel that the Holy Spirit had control over my tongue as i praised God Almighty. I praised and thanked him even before i actually saw my results! Praise Be To Jesus!! Jesus Never Fails!!I thank Bro.Shyju and all others who constantly prayed for me! Only 19% passed and i thank God that i am one of them

2)In the 2009,my father had got severe skin disease.It was so worst that he was completely bed ridden.He couldnot do anything on his own.We prayed sincerely to our Mighty Lord Jesus and he healed him completely. 3)In the following year,my mother had a fall in the mall.Due to this her backbone got twisted.A month later,she started getting chest pain.The doctor rushed her to the ICU stating that she had got heart attack.Various test was performed and high dose of injection and medicines were given to her.Further her test reports had indicated that she had no attack and the pain she was getting was due to the twisting of her backbone.But the high dose of mecidines had already taken a toll on her health.We prayed sincerley to the Lord to forgive us are sins,and he indeed had mercy on us!My mom now is back to health. I praise God for having mercy on me otherswise me and m brother would have been orphans!

4)I really had to save my pocket money during my school days as my father was transferred to Gujurat.
There was one day when i was getting read to go to church and i realised that i had no money for offertory.
Depressed i stood in front of Jesus photo,closed my eyes and said sorry for not being able to offer money that day.When i opened my eyes,i found Rs10 in front of me.It appeared from nowhere!!
—Jesus has taught me that prayer is the most important thing in our life.I was saved from getting a drop,and still have my parents with me only because of prayer.He has also taught me not to get tensed for silly things in life because he is always there to Provide
