First I want to say that this statement is a great way to spread the word of God, and also a great way to glorify God's name. I feel very blessed to even be able to write
Now to start with my back story so you can better understand my actual testimony
I was raised in a Pentecostal Christian home. I have also been raised in a Puerto Rican and Salvadorian home. My father being from Puerto Rico and my mother being from El Salvador. These two cultures help mold me in God's ways. Since I was born my mother always taught me about God and his laws
It starts on a summer night when I was 12. I was playing mine craft with my twin brother when I started getting chest pain. I stopped the game and told my brother what I was feeling. I searched the symptoms of a heart attack. I was having most if not all of the symptoms. My parents were asleep at this time and so was my sister. My brother asked,"should I wake up mom and dad? Or should I call an ambulance?" At this age my mother had already taught us that God is the only true Savior. I responded my brother that none of them can save me only God can save me. Breathless since I was having a heart attack.
We kneeled down to pray and prayed. We praised an worshiped.... well my brother had a louder voice then I since I had trouble breathing but I still praised to my full heart. Soon I was healed to the glory of God.
A few weeks have passed and the same scenario but this time the symptoms were stronger. I started to kind of fade away. I prayed to God saying first, "first I want to ask forgiveness God just in case I have broken one of your laws unknowingly. If it is my time to go then please console my family's heart." Once I finished saying this I felt a dark prescience going over and through me. I felt satan's hand grip at my heart and try ripping it out of my chest. Then I heard him say,"you are coming with me. I am going to kill you" that's when I knew that it was not Gods time for me. My brother and I continued praying and rebuking satan.
The dark prescience left in a flash of light. A light so pure and holy. The hand let go. I heard God say. "You can't have him! I have chosen him to my will!" The pain left I was saved.
At this time in my life I knew who God was and I said I knew him but I didn't have a relationship with God. The song king of the world by Natalie grant (great song by the way) explains just the tip of who I was. I only called to God when I needed him. When it would make me look good. I would also hide my "faith" at times.
After I was healed however my life as never the same I cried and cried and I told God, "I truly repent my Lord, I want to live for you know and for ever more. Your will I want to be my will. All my plans and dreams though them out Lord. My life is now yours what I do will be dictated by you and only you not me."
Since then I have had a deep and strong relationship with Jesus
I encourage all of you to build a relationship with God as well
God bless you all and thank you for reading and a special thanks to Noah and Issac @projectwatpad for allowing me to share this testimony with you all. I pray that this statement reaches many people
I also mostly want to glorify God for saving me.
