Rev. 12:11:
“And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto death.”
On a day the represents love and the sweet emotions we feel for the ones we love the most, Valentines Day, it felt like my whole life got turned upside down. I couldn’t understand why, I believed in God and Jesus. I went through a situation with my family that was so challenging for me and everyone involved. I spent Valentine’s Day with my child to express my love you know, but God had a plan to reveal the love he had for me personally.
God is so kind and FAITHFUL! Honestly the English language in my opinion doesn’t fully capture the nature of God. The situation I went through, I felt it all and it came from every direction. Fear is an extremely dark and encompassing place to be in your emotions. Fear will also try to attach itself to every area of your life, but the very essence of God and who he is will exterminate every single ounce of darkness once you surrender it all to him. And I did and the helpers prayed for me, thank GOD that there are obedient men and women of God who are about our Father’s business. Now, I see how much God loves me and I want to fulfill what he has called me to do with my life.
I want to see my God exalted among all the Earth. I want everyone to know that by reason of the finished work of the cross we can overcome every obstacle or mountain we face and have life eternal through Christ. Through my situation my faith has been enriched, my eyes opened, my heart forever changed, my confidence is in God alone. And when I say I love God and Jesus and the Holy Spirit it has more meaning now and holds weight.
And I pray that whoever reading my testimony will receive the care & love from God till the point you know it without a shadow of doubt. I’ll leave you with this Ps 23:4:
“Yea though I walk through the shadow of death I shall fear no evil for though art with me thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.”
Always remember that no matter how hard or challenging life can get, it’s only a SHADOW of death and God promises to comfort us and that he’ll never leave us. I hope you’re encouraged. All praises to the most high God, the alpha and omega, the author and finisher of my faith. All glory and honor to King Jesus my Lord and Savior and friend.
