Seriously. There's never been a better time for EVERYONE to be sharing their testimonies with as many people as possible. Every story is relatable to someone. There's some wild testimonies coming out here in Australia and it's so great to see the same kinds of stories being shared from around the world. Praise the Lord 🙏
Please share !
AMEN

Hi. I'd like to share my testimony of how Jesus changed my life. I'm in South Africa
Facts, Big Facts
I was abused . Sex . Verbal, violent. I was born again at 7years old. I spent most my teen years in reform school. Then years on skid row. Doing all kinds of drugs. I'm by the grace of God. I'm almost 60 now. Jesus saved me. He is the only way. Peace ✌️ please spread God's love ❤️
Thank you for sharing I also was sexual active at 12 and I'm 30 now. I've been through hell and back full of anger but God had mercy on me. I gave my life to Jesus 2 years ago and He delivered and set me free 🙏🏼
Amen,, hallelujah 🙏
Praise the Lord 💕💖 I pray He blesses You and keeps You
HALLELUJAH! God bless and keep you xx
Thank you Yeshua ❤️🔥👑
I did . Now gods punishment came in my life. My health affected,Because god spoke with me many times but I didn't obey . Can god cleanse again?
I am 62 and did not get clean from heroin and Klonopin the doctors gave me.. the Klonopin of course.. until about 7 years ago! Your story hit home Big Time young lady and anyone else who is watching this please know that it is not too late even if you are 55 like I was when I quit! I was carjacked in 2015/ 7 years ago, kicked in the head till I received a traumatic brain injury / TBI, could feel my life training out of me with the blood and told God I was sorry and to please help me / repent and turn to me and I was very serious because I was very frightened like scared to death! Things have not been easy and oh yeah there has been a whole lot of house cleaning so to speak cuz I am messy messy messy but Jesus loves me, loves me loves me and you! He loves us when we act stupid he loves us when we are weak he loves us when we do not fit in with the ways of this world even a little bit! Hang on brothers and sisters you are all in my prayers right now! I do have love peace and joy and best of all hope ! Thank you my Lord and my king Jesus! I go out and talk to homeless people a few days a week at least and whoever he puts in my path where it seems cool to do so which is most of the time! Hey please say a prayer for me as my years of abusing myself has left me physically.. needing God's help and your prayers! Thank you! Back at you with the prayers!
God bless you and I will pray for you.. my sister Denise
I am hugging you my sister! Glory to God!
🙏🙏🙏❤️
Hi there! I take Xanax prescribed by my doctor and it really helps my anxiety. If anxiety medication is taken correctly, it can actually help some people. I do understand what you said though and I am happy for you that you got clean and that you are doing better. You are a wonderful person And I’m so happy that you are okay! God Bless. Keep up the fantastic work 😊🙏🏼🤍

It’s true that God’s words can really transform people for the better. It is only through God that we can attain all the good things in life. For those who haven’t accepted God in their hearts and minds just yet, you still have the time to do so. I know that God loves us all regardless.
Time... they may not have much time, now is the time.
Having God and Jesus in our lives does not mean we have an easy or great life on earth. Look to Job and Paul for examples of hardships while following and obeying God and Jesus. If we only love God and Jesus and His Holy Spirit to get what we want then we do not really love Him. God is not a genie, and we do not always receive the answer we'd like to our prayers. God is far greater than we imagine. Our materialism and worldly views doesn't change Who HE Is. God is Divine and Pure and Supreme and Awesome whether we accept Him or not. We should accept Him simply because He is God. As a painting is less than the painter, and created by the painter, we are below God, and are His creations, yet unlike a painter, He made Himself lowly in mortal flesh as Jesus and lifted us with His love.
Her obedience to Christ is EVERYTHING.❤❤❤ I struggle with being obedient.
I have listened to a lot of Delafés testimonies but this one hits really close to home for me and is pretty similar to my journey with Christ. I feel hopeful that God will continue to heal my brokenness in His perfect time.
He will and the best is yet to come! God bless you Jasmine
Go to journey to healing in Jacksonville fl. You’ll never be the same
Sister , never be ashamed of crying tears of joy, when you are being filled with the HOLY SPIRIT and you cry out of overwhelming happiness and don't even realize you are crying!! The HOLY SPIRIT is moving in you, thank you for sharing your testimony!!!!
“The Lord knows when to deal with what” AMEN!!
Amennnnnnnn!
This testimony definitely hit home for me in regards to the shame from being raped. Not once but twice and then having been thrown out as trash by the men who drugged me and raped me and recorded me did. Left me on a stoop half clothed in a neighborhood I had no clue where I was and that humiliation absolutely affected me for years and made me a complete recluse afterwards. I remember after finding a cop and getting home I just dropped into myself and felt like I was the most disgusting person on the planet. I was terrified, felt shameful so many terrible feelings. I had such a deep hatred of men and fear of being alone for so long. Slowly but surely over time and since coming to God as she said God put safe men in my life and I learned to trust again and most importantly forgive and move forward. God bless you and thank you for sharing your story because it really touched me and I could relate so much to a lot of what you said. Your story is beautiful and God Bless you! 🙏🏻❤️
I’m so glad God brought me here, I love this channel ❤️
Me too :)
Me too🥰
I have listened to so many of these testimonies, but this one really hit home for me. I started dating when I was 12 years old. I was very mature looking for my age and was asked out by college guys and some very undesirable men. My mother was not at all a conscientious parent. I had 2 sisters, one my twin, and one 13 months older. We were all 3 married by the time we were 15 and 16 years old. Our mom had divorced and just married a man fresh out of prison. The marriages were a way of running away from our terrible family life. I'm now 68 years old. I came to the Lord when I was 17 years old, after the birth of my son. My husband and I have been married for 52 years. That's 52 years of very rocky roads. I actually surrendered to preach the word and have been a preacher for 15 years now. God has walked that "slow walk" with me as you say. My husband is now a Christian and we both serve in our church. I just wanted you to know what your beautiful testimony meant to me. You are a very beautiful and powerful woman with a gentle spirit. Thank you for sharing. God Bless!!
I went to a church and every time they would do the singing or would do the preaching I would be in tears literally and I'm sure everybody around me was looking at me like I was crazy but I could just feel the presence of God so I understand this completely thank you Jesus for all you do
Same! His joy and presence is so overwhelming good!
@@lisafancy628 yes ma'am amen
Walk in the Light as He is in the Light. Thank you for your testimony.
Very very intelligent young woman you are. Jesus shines through you. I'm a believer. Not because of my upbringing. Never found God or Jesus in church, just boring religious routine, although I kept a respectful attitude. To be honest, I don't even know why I believe in God. Whenever I take time to reflect on it, I find it's a clear and strong gut felling that I always had. I came upon this channel not long ago, when I was in a general state of exhaustion, something that happened to me a few times in my life, not a nice place to say the least. Found many really credible testimonies that litterally pumped life and joy, and hope back into me. All I had to do was to pray God and his son Jesus and the healing got under way.. Thank you so very much for sharing your experience with us. You are blessed. Glory to God ! His church is everywhere, mostly in our hearts.
19:25 - 19:50 is a VERY POWERFUL statement. Who are we to not pick up our cross daily, when Jesus Himself did it for us. Praise God. Such a wonderful and strengthening testimony from our sister in Christ. May the Lord bless her and her family, and may she continue to walk and grow closer with the Lord. God bless you💛
Amen yes yes 🙌🏾
AMEN
We will overcome by the blood of the Lamb and the word of our testimony indeed! This testimony many souls need to hear it, so well put and detailed, you can easily track God's footsteps oh thank you Jesus this is what journeying with the Father is like. He knits everything together brings you back to Him and begins to massage this healing ointment to the wounds, bring clarity, deliverance ohhh yess Jesus is alive!!!!🙌. Love this all the way from South Africa🇿🇦
What is crazy is I'm 46 years old I don't know a lot about the Bible even though I do read it all the time I believe in Jesus 1000%. I've been wanting to go to a Bible College so I can learn more about Jesus and understand the Bible more
You can learn directly from the Holy Spirit too, and the Bible. He is the Best Teacher. Just keep seeking Him!
Carrie Layla Scott is right ,our teacher the best is Jesus the Christ, when we go to Bible college some of your teachers don't believe in Jesus,ask God to open your understanding to what he is saying to you,when you read.

Thank you for all your hard work to make this channel. Youre exceptionally talented through and through. I absolutely look forward to every new testimony. The way you interview and how comfortable and raw each person shares their story of coming home is so recharging.
Thank you so much for posting this testimony. I’m going through shame and insecurity around my sexual abuse as a man. And I don’t know who to tell yet so when she said you should bring the shame into the light I immediately felt convicted and was brought to tears only by the Lord. In time Gods gonna help me answer this shameful spirit I’m harboring. Please pray for me
20:38 - thank you so much for sharing your testimony. this part where you asked God to forgive them and told God that you look forward to seeing them in heaven, really shook me to the core. I think God wanted me to hear this so that I can truly forgive those who hurt me. I asked God to enable me to forgive but I had never wanted to see them in heaven. You showed me what true forgiveness looks like and I feel already so much more free thinking this way. Thank you so so much for your brave testimony and honesty. God bless you.
Wonderful testimony! So many good points she makes ... was able to forgive those who harmed her ...God helped and healed her -- not all at once but, "in layers" ... "shame hides in the darkness" so we need to bring our secrets out into the Light! Thank you!! Praise the Lord!!!
Your guest is a beautiful saint of our Lord Jesus. Enjoyed her testimony.
When she spoke about God having her clean her closet out 🙌🏽 Same. He deals with us layer by layer in everything. He began purging me of my vanity early. Little by little. And still now. Great testimony
This struck me in a way I didn’t expect, thank you so much for sharing. The Holy Spirit is using this to show me things in my life as well. God bless you. I love this testimony.
Me too! You can tell she is close with the Lord. She walks with him all day every day.
Janelle (I hope I am spelling your name right) Thank You for sharing your story. Some things you said gave me answers to some of my own questions about things I have been through that I haven’t necessarily known how to ask God how to deal with them and I think that (like you said God knows what we’re thinking and he knows what we’re gonna say before we say it) so I think that, that was God’s way of actually using your testimony to answer some my own questions for God (and God knowing that I didn’t know how to ask him) You are an amazing woman! Your story has brought me a lot of comfort and some healing! Again, Thank You🕊🌸🤍
I love her comment about Youth Group being “just a pizza party and games”. My husband and I took over a youth group at our church last year and realized the reason today’s youth would leave the church in college and not return…
Our modern day, mega church kids/youth ministries are based on entertainment. The adult’s don’t have trendy music, pizza and games in the main sanctuary. When following God stops being “fun”, the youth don’t want to go to the “boring” main service. We lack disciples. We are not discipline our youth and that’s why they defect in their teen/young adult years.
ty 4 your comment - i think so - but its really hard to prepare the youth for the godly way, when 90% of society around them whoreshipping thinks of the world (influenced by the devil - music etc. .... ) - without god and his laws in their heart and head ...
greetings out of germany
god bless u
I absolutely love the part about her husband, I as well went through molestation and rape growing up. And my husband is my safe place, I as well see Jesus characteristics in him. Especially letting me set my boundaries but also letting him break down the walls I had up for so long.
Wow I am wrecked 😭 I was sexually active at 13 and had so much anger and rejection and depression. Cried with you. Thank you for sharing. Thank you Jesus for having you hand on my beautiful sister. Continue to do a work in her life. Continue to bless her. Bless her womb. I plead the blood of Jesus over her from the top of her head to the soles of her feet. In Jesus mighty name.
I started smoking at 14 in jr. high bad friends. God wanted you to taste the suffering first and then make a choice to go and walk with him in the Light. Lessons is being taught
May YHWH bless this beautiful young woman for sharing her powerful testimony walking after Yahshua.
Great testimony! I’m still working on my faith as well…as I think we all shall. A couple months ago I woke up from a night from drinking too much. Hung over as heck. NOT feeling well at all. The next couple of days I felt this overwhelming sense of conviction of the many things Ive done wrong in my life…and there’s a lot! Conviction that put me in some debilitating depression. I reached out to a friend of mine who is a Christian who has some similar past with certain sins. Helped me through a lot! I’ve gone to church every week for about a month now…on my own. Never grew up with that. All new really! Crazy thing is the first sermon was on Revelation and the pastor used the final scene from the movie Gladiator to show what heaven would be like. And the song that plays with it…”Now We Are Free”. Crazy thing is…I was asked by my Christian friend before going to church what my fav type of music was. It’s instrumental music to movies…and I had literally just put that song on a playlist before going to church. 😮. Since then..its been a new struggle to move forward. But ever since that night I woke up…some bad habits have shut off like a light switch. I’m slowly progressing but its been very eye opening and new really. But Ive been progressing I believe. Watching all these testimonies def does help!
I just stumbled across this I am very glad I did thank you for your testimony you are truly a Survivor God is so good Jesus definitely had his angels around you and it's probably for you to share your testimony to help other people God bless you you are very brave for doing this
Thank you to you who shared your path. My favorite highlight was that part where you said “I didnt know I could take these things to him”
I grew up in a “christian” household and I certainly didnt know that was an option as well.
I love love loveeeee your path. :)
That part about men standing in the gaps, just wow! Now I know we can too (men or women) stand in the gaps for the broken-hearted.
Amen
Life is the journey, Paradise is the destination, King Jesus is the Way, the Truth and the Life
This channel feeds my spirit. 🙌🏽🥰
I feel the same way.
Wow this testimony brought tears to my eyes. But through it I see the beauty and power of Jesus. I pray that many of those listening who have been hurt and abused find deliverance and healing lime this beautiful young woman did. She is an example of the Lord's goodness
Thank you sister for your courage and strength to share your special testimony. You are a heroine of other women. May the God of peace continue to stretch your faith in unfamiliar ways that you may lead others out of the darkness who are in the unfamiliar places. May He bless you and keep you and your family, in Jesus mighty name.
Thank you for your testimony and although I haven’t gone through what you have, I have seen God’s working in my life and I cried so much to him to get me out of this small racist town I live in, so please just pray for me because I tried twice to move and I’m out here alone without family and I have lost my faith because of it because I feel like God has abandoned me here. I have no purpose here-no church family and every day I wake up I am depressed and I hate it here so much I can’t understand why God didn’t open doors for me to move when I tried twice to do so-just don’t have the money to move
Speak your testimony to those that are going through the same thing you are. So when people ask why do God let bad things happen in the world? So when he show up you know he's there and he's a present and living God ...thank you Jesus Christ you are the spirit of testimony
This testimony in particular touched me because from 12 years is when my life became a living hell with all kind of abuse.l was neglected by my own family members,l had no true friend and l had no one to talk 2 ,at night l could have demonic attacks which led to depression,fear anger,hatred and anxiety.now am 27 and bad luck still keep following me but now am in prayer believing Jesus will eventually deliver me
Love the testimonies. God speaks to everyone whether in jail or work.
One of the most beautiful testimonials I have ever heard. To not compare my journey a real problem in my life. Each individual, has a personal walk with Jesus. God is real, even though I have not always felt His presence. I look back at age 66. Don't remember ever meeting men in or out of church, who I felt safe discussing my sexual past. Especially Christian men I met in my church. Every church is different. I got most of my support with childhood sexual abuse from women's group. All the men I told, never a real support. Neither of my two ex husbands. I look back and realize may have told the wrong people. Thinking I was safe. Writing has helped me for many years. Plus those who shared with me about their own abuse, knew I was never alone. No names, but a female relative. An female ex co worker my best friend then. Plus a male co worker like a brother for a while and friend. Several women in my church. Me at age five molested by someone. At nine my older brother. A female classmate. In my early teens a brother and sister molested me. It was in the church basement. Like it never happened because so long ago. I think it never made me feel like males loved me. Maybe why I am glad to be celibate for about 10 years. Glad to please God. Feel blessed with her testimony. Glad she met a man who would stay with her, love her like Christ loves the church. Just a dream for my past. But I pray to keep seeking God for a closer relationship. God still loves me after all the sins of my past. Learning to forgive all who sinned against me, is a long journey. Still learning who God really is, and Who God has been. Omnipotent all powerful. Omniscient all knowing. Omnipresent ever present God. No one else like God. The Creator of the universe. Need to believe it each day. Know God is still love. Jesus us my personal Savior. Believe Gods Word and blessed to hear others are believers. 🙏🏾 God can bless some people with a good marriage. Plus heal those who have been abused. Still healing as I age. 🙏🏾🙏🏾
Amazing testimony! Thank you Jesus for your love!
Amen ❤️❤️
These Testimonies bring me so much joy. Knowing one more has been brought into Christ snd to know they are changed from this point. To know how Gods Love changes and to hear people be honest 🙏🏻🥰
She just laid my life out there for everyone to see! ALMOST identical! And after 45 years I just recently received an apology of sorts. What a blessing! God is so good. Always!
I love how sincere this testimony is! You grew into this. Wow it's awesome! So good!
I loved her testimony. This is worth sharing because I feel like this can help someone. Thank you!
Started doing sexual stuff when I was 13 everything started to go down hill for me…I just wanted acceptance from people so badly I was willing to compromise myself for that…love, and acceptance is a drug and I was heavily addicted to it…god brought me to my knees when o was 22 I’m 24 now and never looked back from god…I have my days but I talk to god and he always calms my mind and heart…I thank god everyday for this..I’m still a work in progress though.
About 4 years ago I thought I could never come back from the damage that was done in my life. The abuse, the brokenness, my own self sabotage. I prayed and asked G-d to help me because I couldn't do it anymore. I'm not where I used to be. But I pray I can be on the other side of the pain someday. It's been heavy
Beautiful testimony! 🙏🏽God bless your daughter for her heart to share to bring deliverance for many who hold secrets that bring shame. 👏🏼👏🏼❤️
What happened with the ex-muslim testimony?
What an amazing woman of God!! Such a powerful testimony.
Such an incredibly powerful testimony. God bless, and keep you.
wow, it’s so amazing to hear others life stories but also hearing how God is always in it and how He brings us to Him. God Bless you sister xx 🤍
20:43 Lord I look forward to seeing them in Heaven.
This is such a powerful step in forgiveness.
Praise God. I’ve been waiting for the next testimony.
This testimony was an answer to a prayer last night. I always hear how God heals immediately and people have radical changes. Mine has been in layers too and i was worrying. Thank you for sharing your amazing testimony. ❤
A beautiful testimony. May God richly bless you.
In sharing your Christian testimony you help many!
Very inspiring testimony... Greetings from the Philippines....
I tried forgiving my dad after he died. I knew I needed to, because I was forgiven. I would say it , but felt nothing. Now, I feel it. But the anger from his severe abuses, as my siblings and I just does not go away. He was an angry narsisstic lier, and was blessed big. My siblings and I tried to do well, and have been beaten down to nothing, and it continues.
I don't get it at all.
May the Lord restore you all and heal you. In the name of Jesus, Amen. Sorry for your hurts.
forgiving can be a longer process than we expect. your desire to forgive your dad is obvious. Keep close to the Lord and He will help you every step of the way. I am still recovering from having had both parents who were narcissistic.
Had a nice conversation with my 14 year old and she knows the Lord but I realize these types of testimonies could help from the screaming of the world views and plant more seeds. She's my only daughter and I have two older sons but realized this daughter things is different and I want to be intentional about this.
Thanks for sharing 🙏🏾
His grace and mercy be upon you all and your loved ones 🕊️🥛🍯
The way she communicated her process is very practical and relatable.
GLORYYYY!! So happy to hear this testimony 🙏🏽❤️‼️ God Bless You!
God is good , love this story thanks for sharing 🙏🏽
its sad to see that parents can be lacking so much that little 12yo girls can do all this without them knowing. i feel for the sister and im so happy that she found herself in the lord. praise jesus ❤❤
Exactly. i feel the parents are a lot to blame for what happened to her. My sister was 18 months older than me and i had more freedom than she did. But at 12, both of us had a pretty good leash around us. Also being a smoker and heavy drinker at one stage, there is still no way you could steal smokes or alcohol from me more than once. First time i would be, hmmm, didn't think i smoked that much, pretty sure that bottle had more than that but i could be wrong. 2nd time, i would be onto it.
@@turbogav8674 yeah man, this is why, tbh I believe that while many people have the desire to have kids, not all should. Because even some of those who want kids will not be good parents, sad but true.
I can relate to alot of this testimony,all glory to Jesus..❤️
Thank you for sharing YOUR story. You can inspire those going through darkness, going through suffering to come to the light. To seek help. Peace Love
im going through pain. christ help.
Jesus you’re so good I love you so much ❤️🔥
My favorite part...being transformed by reading the Word! I can see and hear God's finger prints all over this women of God ❤️
You are amazing! I bless you and your family in Jesus name!
Only Jesus Christ can change lives!
Thank you for sharing your testimony. I love how Jesus validates us when we are in our lows even when our parents and peers are unable to do so. This gave me hope for healing, a better second marriage and a godly man who puts God first.
Thank you so much for your testimony
This truly touched my heart🙏🏾❤️
Similar has happend to me too , Jesus, please help me and walk me through 💔 God bless!
I have a 12 year old granddaughter, I can't imagine her drinking.
one thing I didn’t see addressed in the video is the age of consent. you can’t actually consent to sex at 12, which means what she experienced was not at all consensual and shouldn’t be presented as such.
This is a good point that we honestly did not think about. Thank you for pointing it out, we will keep this in mind moving forward.
Thank you for pointing this out!!
What a beautiful testament to God’s goodness you have!!!
PRAISE JESUS ❤️
Sister in Christ may the Lord guide you in the days to come.
Hiya! what happened .. why did you take down Leona Ba's video..?
I wish everyone could hear this testimony because we all can relate on some level. God's love changes everything!!
She is so beautiful ,the lord is amazing 👏 may his name be praised
AMEN THANK YOU FOR YOUR TESTIMONIE
Sister in Christ, can you read Psalm 119:105. Thank you.
