"For we did not follow cleverly devised tales when we made known to you the
power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but we were eyewitnesses of His majesty." (2Peter 1:16)
My Savior
Redeemer: Without Christ in my life and in the center of it, I was in a mess and
in a total ruin. If Christ didn't save and protect me, I may have already ended up in jail and destroyed without hope. Christ has set me free from my troubles and
saved my life literally from destruction. Christ has given me a new and abundant life,
full of hope, peace and joy. Christ has sucked my troubled water into His vine and
transformed it into a clear and clean juice that flows from it.
My Sustainer: Since my
conversion, the Lord has done many miracles in my life and around me. He has blessed me
from every side and answered many of my prayers. Besides His free gift of salvation the
Lord has granted me many gifts that by no mean I can see myself deserving them or being
able to pay them back ever, except through thanksgiving and praise to His holy and
precious name.
* Protection: Even though I
am a person who lives as an alien in a foreign country with a people of a strange looking
and language to me, the Lord has been providing me a refuge and a shelter in their midst
and protecting me from my enemies. He gave me exceeding peace and prosperity beyond all my
former dreams.
* Debts: He miraculously
provided me all of the money I needed to pay my old debts. While writing this
testimony, I already have transferred the whole amount of my debts back to my country and
deposit it in a special account in waiting for the arrangement of some legal procedures to
clear the matter from the court.
* Family: Besides my Church's
family, the Lord provided me a lovely Christian wife, a wonderful family of her which
became mine also and a baby coming soon. He blessed us with a very nice house to live in,
surrounded by our church family members and in the midst of a good community.
* Ministry: My Church's board
of elders has appointed me as a mission worker (Evangelist). Now I have a job and a
ministry I am responsible for. In the past the Lord has humbled me and brought me to the
lowest levels, but since I learned my lesson. He began to raise me up into places where I
would have never dreamed to be!
* Country: As results of
prayers offered on behalf of my people and nation. I recently witnessed to many miraculous
changes in my Arab Muslim country. I see the Lord powerfully and actively working. What
excites me is the fact that Jesus and I have being working as a team together and
coordinating in harmony.
* Connections: Through the
Church's connection, the Lord put me in contact and relationship with several Christian
brothers from throughout the world, including the Muslim and Arab world and my country of
birth. Such connections were blessing and encouragement to me and assurance from Jesus
Christ that He is indeed the Lord God, who reigns and rules over all the world and people.
Who never changes: It
is a true statement that Christ is always the same yesterday, today and tomorrow. In both easy and difficult circumstances, He is so good all the time and His mercy
and loving-kindness are renewed every day. He is truly our Father who cares for every
detail in our lives and who seeks the best for our interests. He is also the ultimate
faithful friend who never fails us even if we fail him. He is our Bridegroom who longs to
see the day where we'll finally become one with Him so that we'll finally get married with
Him for eternity.
My God forever: In my
new walk as a Christian I began to experience God in my personal life and see how He is
working around me, in me and through me. It isn't only through study, reason and
supernatural manifestation that I became convicted that Christ Jesus is indeed the only
way to God, but also through a step by step daily walk and communion with Him. Day after
day, I become more and more convicted that His words are the light and truth and that in
Him is the everlasting life. Therefore and as the Bible says, I have experienced that
Jesus the word is the heavenly Manna that satisfy all my hunger. Jesus is the over flowing
water fountain that satisfy all of my thirst and cleans all of the dirt of my souls and
the river that turns me into a living spring in the heart of the desert. Jesus is indeed
the one He says He is, the eternal light and the sun of everlasting righteousness that
shines on me from the throne of God. He is the faithful one, my solid rock of refuge, my
shield and my strength. He is the incarnate word of God, the alpha and the omega, the
first and the last, the beginning and the end. He is the God who is with me, Emmanuel, the
Prince who gave me peace and my everlasting Father. He is the one who was and is and is to
come, the I AM THAT I AM, YaHoWaH, my Savior Lord, YaHoShuWa my Almighty God forever and
ever.
