If you struggle with this, please just skip right over. I love you all and I'm thankful that you are here to listen to what God has done in my life.

Remember - Jesus loves you. He laid down His life for you. He welcomes you just as you are!!
"And may you have the power to understand, as all God’s people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep His love is. May you experience the love of Christ, though it is too great to understand fully. Then you will be made complete with all the fullness of life and power that comes from God." // Ephesians 3:18-19

Thanks for sharing! You bring up a very good point in this video. People a lot of times I feel like are looking for the most powerful testimonies, but in reality, sometimes we don't really come to the Lord in very powerful ways.
But that brings me into everyone needs Jesus the same amount. The worst addict needs Jesus just as much as the nicest person who has their life completely together who doesn't know Him.
I'll share my testimony.
I grew up in a Christian home and I first heard the “gospel” when I was 7. I said the prayer and was done. From age 7 to 11, I was in the “I said the prayer, I can do whatever I want, God is a genie” camp. I went to church every weekend but didn’t really have a connection with God.
However, when I was 11 in 2015, I got caught up in all the rapture stuff. This made me start to question my salvation. I found a video on TH-cam that said most Christian’s won’t be ready for the rapture. It basically said we haven’t to repent of our sins and stop sinning.
I took this to the extreme and tried under my own power completely relying on myself to stop sinning and make heaven. I couldn’t do it and 2 months or so later I stoped and went back to the life I was living.
In early 2017 was the first time I heard the concept of surrendering to the Lord. I learned I have to surrender and live for Him. I ended up surrendering to Him for a month but then I fell away.
Between 2017 and 2020, it was a constant battle. I would want to surrender, but I couldn’t and didn’t want to at the same time. I would maybe surrender for a day to a week, but I would eventually go right back to the life I was living before.
In 2020, during the pandemic I started looking at more Christian videos. June of 2020 was my longest streak (until recently). I was surrendered for about 3 weeks, living for God (or was trying to) and was being discipled by a friend I met through TH-cam comments through one of the videos I had watched. After 3 weeks, I fell back into sin and my old way of life.
Between 2020 and 6 months ago, I was on and off again living for God and living for myself. It was absolutely tormenting. I wanted to live for God, but at the same time, I wanted to live for myself. I just couldn’t do it.
Every time I would surrender to God for a short period of time, it would always be after some big thing happened. Then I would fall away after 1-3 weeks. I just couldn’t do it.
Now we can move onto the more current part. In July of this year, I forget the details but I think I started seeking God again. My sisters mother in law wanted to visit the church my dad goes to (which is where I go to now). I figured I would go as I had a good connection with her. I went and it started out as a very normal service. The sermon started out very normal but they preached on how we need the power of God to live the Christian live. The service then turned into an altar call for people to be set free from stuff.
Being embarrassed about my situation as I always was, I didn’t go up for anything but something happened in that room.
I went home that night and immediately something was different. This was July 16 of this year, 2023. Since then my life has never been the same. All the sudden, I had an unexplainable urge to just seek God.
I forget when in the timeline it was but it was pretty soon after that I was asking God how do I overcome sin and walk with Him. It was then he told me it comes out of knowing my identity of who I am in Christ, and that I’m dead to sin, and alive to Christ.
Immediately, after this revelation, I was freed from this rut. I am still here 6 months later. Again, I couldn't even get to this point for the past 6-8 years.
As I progressed, I learned what it meant to walk in the Spirit, and how we need to walk in the Spirit so we will not gratify the desires of the flesh. I learned and continue to learn as time goes on that everything comes out of resting in Christ as the sons and daughters we are.
See, it is in our human nature to perform. I mean our whole society is based on performance. I was stuck in this for those 6 years, trying to prove myself worthy and live the Christian life under my own strength out of the flesh. I was basically stuck in Romans 7.
Once I realized I need to walk in the Spirit, stop striving, and crucify the flesh, the Holy Spirit is now able to live through me and that is what made me free.
Overall, the last 6 months have been the most full of life ever in my almost 20 years of living. It’s great to be able to walk in freedom in Christ, to commune with him, and to be free from the flesh.
One thing that has continued is now I think religion is absolutely ridiculous. Religion is man made rules of how to perform to get to God. I’ve learned that is all about relationship and communion to God. Another thing is with this revelation I have now, God has just made himself so real to me that I just can’t deny it, and I see him as a person, and not just an entity.
Anyways, sorry for my long ramble. But I should mention that before I actually started walking with the Lord 6 months ago, I was a good person. People liked me and thought I was nice. I never got into any of the bad stuff. But deep down I had an unsettled war that was settled 6 months ago. I've thought about starting a youtube channel potentially to share some of my thoughts or maybe just as even a diary of my walk.
All Glory goes to God.
Hosea 14:4 Praise God Jesus for the healing of your backsliding from Him.
I'm still in the wilderness unfortunately... hurry up to HELP Your people o LORD YESHUA.✝✝✝ Psalm 70

Thank you so much for being here🥹🫶🏻🤍 I pray Jesus continues to use my channel to impact you & others! What videos would you like to see?
My wife and I have been trying to get pregnant for a long time, probably 3 years, we prayed every day, and all of
sudden she became pregnant last year in December, and she is 21 weeks in, you don't know when god's timing will show up, so just keep trusting, he has got the best plan hallelujah, glorify god.

Brought tears to my eyes! ❤ so inspirational
that means so much to me
I enjoyed you testimony, it was relatable. Do you mind if I copy and reshare it? I am putting together a TH-cam channel of testimonies to spread the gospel. I will add a link back to the original source. God bless you sister! Keep spreading the good word!

Thank you so much for watching my story 💗
Thanks for sharing 🩵 you’re beautiful !
Aw thank you so much love!! Thank you for supporting 🤍🤍
Thank you so much for sharing! Do you still pray in tongues? I’d love to know more about this because honestly I’ve never been in a Christian community or church that talks about this…
Hi. I have this gift |1 Corinthians 12| it's basically communion between you and the Triune ADONAI - LORD JESUS |1 Corinthians 14|, but if there is someone with the gift of translation of tongues with you or if you have the gift of translation, you can use it around other believers to prophecy/speak over for the life of some Brothers and Sisters.
Not all Saved Christians have this gift, the Holy Spirit gives us gifts as HE wills |1 Corinthians 12|
I hope i was helpful. God Jesus Christ bless you 777 times here and in His Eternal Kingdom, Amen.🕊
Thank you love!! and yes I do :) I grew up AG so my church talked about it all the time ha which wasn't the best but definitely opened my eyes to how the spirit can move
God bless sis.
Thank you for being here!
You are a baby in christ and you have freedom as you choose your testimony but remain Jesus wanted know its between you and him.
Yout testimony should be shared. First Christians confessed their sins one to another. Your given a white by your testimony. Revelation. Who in the whole Bible has a white robe without a testimony? Old testiment instructions says to talk about the mighty works God has done. That's a testimony too.
Respectfully, we are all still growing but it’s not your place to decide whether or not someone is a baby in their faith. I’m definitely not but I’m still growing & I’m thankful for Gods direction. A testimony isn’t between only Jesus and I. It’s to tell the world so that it can point back to him & encourage others. 🤍
You’re right we are definitely commanded to share our testimony with others! Sure it can be scary but it’s so needed
You are so beautiful no need for makeup or immodest clothes or tattoos because those things will take you to hell you should wear modest clothes don’t do makeup or tattoos because those aren’t good at all
Thank you for the compliment but respectfully those things are the LAST thing I’m worried about when it comes to heaven vs. hell. The Bible does not say women will go to hell for any of those things. That was under the old law. The only thing that will bring anyone to hell is separation from God and living a life apart from him. Sure you shouldn’t be obsessed with makeup or what you wear or tattoos but that’s applicable to anything else - nothing should become an idol that is above God in our lives.
If you believe in the Gospel of God Jesus Christ you have Eternal Life. ✝
Makeup and tattoos and "magic" were given to humanity by the fallen angels, but they can't stop the will of the Triune ADONAI, HalleluYAHELSHADDAI.🕊
Some of these fallen angels |including satan - Luke 10:18| said to the humanity that they are gods. Some of the fallen angels saw the beauty of the daughters of man and take for themselves wives and now are in chains until the dreadful day of YHWHYESHUA.
May God JESUS bless you and give you wisdom, Amen.
