For the last 3 years I have wanted a relationship with God but because I followed the Rastafarian belief system for 33 years, I found it very difficult to change. 24th February 2015 I was taken ill with internal bleeding and the next day awoke in my hospital bed to find a consultant who sat down and told me I had cancer.
Firstly, I cried then I prayed to the Father in Jesus Name and asked Him to take the cancer from me, if it was His will. I had an operation scheduled for one week later but following further tests I was told three days later that there was no sign of cancer, and I am ‘unusual.’
When I left hospital, I decided I must be baptized and started to research baptism in the Ethiopian Orthodox Church. Whilst sitting at my computer doing this a voice came to me saying,
“But you prayed in Jesus Name”
I phoned a friend who is a Pastor of a small Church and asked him to baptize me in Jesus Name, and he told me it was about time! Immediately following this phone call, I picked up my Bible and read Acts 1:11 which showed me Rasta cannot be true.
A month after leaving hospital I returned for further testing to be told even the dead tissue had healed! I was baptized on 19th May 2015, and I am so thankful to my Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ who told us that if we ask in His name He will give, and He does not tell lies!
You’re such an inspiration. God is real, and it’s a shame for those who believe otherwise. Continue to be blessed.
Praise God, He is a saviour
