My Testimony (about me)
First I want to start with giving God all the glory and honor because without Him I would not be the person I am today. I grew up with all kinds of interesting people living in my house and seeing God's miracle working power transforming their lives. I hear people say that they are praying for revival but while people were praying I was living revival everyday. It was normal for me to see people demon possessed or someone randomly running into our house wanting to get saved or going to the streets and seeing gangs turn their lives around for God.

I remember the day of my birthday my father waking me up at 5 o'clock in the morning and telling me that he is going to teach how to pray for 1 hour everyday. Of course as a little kid I wasn't to excited but after a year and two months of getting up at the crack of dawn God began to start something new in my life. After prayer one morning I knew that I needed Jesus in my life. So right on the floor of my room I asked Jesus in my heart and then I was jumping around with joy and telling everyone in the neighborhood about Jesus. As a kid I would gather all the kids on the block and preach to them in our garage.

Now around the age of 15 I started to realize that I wasn't satisfied. I grew tired of church and would yawn at seeing another miracle. I thought I had seen and heard everything all about God but I found out that I was wrong. During this time I had chance to further my soccer career or go with my mom on Spiritual Bootcamp. I really didn't see the point of traveling and ministering since we do that all the time. So I prayed and told God that I would dedicate those 3 weeks to Him. I figured if God's will was for me to play soccer giving up 3 weeks of training would be nothing.

So I went on SBC with an expectation to truly know God. In those 3 weeks I started to seek after God like I never had before. There were times that I would pray so hard that I felt I was going to die and all the blood vessels on my face popped. Many of the kids that were with us were concerned because my face looked crazy. On the last day of the 3 weeks nothing had happened we were at a service and I felt like I didn't find what I was searching for. A minister was talking about the presence of God I was vocally telling him that he was a joke. I was fed up with people talking about warm fuzz feelings and how it is great to be a christian. I wanted to know that God was real and not just some feeling we get when we go to church.

After service was over we were the only group left and that's because more than half our group was drunk in the spirit or crying. So I went up to the altar and told God I'm not going to leave until He reveals Himself to me. Well, after about 4 hours of crying out to God and pounding my fists on the altar I experienced something in my life that cannot be explained.

I remember looking down and seeing my body and I thought I was dead. Then I entered into a certain place and saw God. I really can't explain what happened I have no words that can properly describe what I saw. But I do know that no matter what happens in my life whether my parents leave God and the ministry or if the church no longer is around I know that my relationship with God is not based on what I've been told by someone or what I think I know but on God Himself.

Little Advice On How To Share The Gospel In Everyday Life

It's hard for anyone to do what I call cold turkey evangelism which is walking up to someone and just start talking about Christ. There are people I know who have to true gift of evangelism and can do that then bam that person is saved. You are probably saying well I can't do it that so I guess I shouldn't go evangelizing. Well, does that mean we shouldn't evangelize? No, Jesus told his disciples before He left this world to go into the uttermost parts of the world and preach, teach, and baptizi… Continue
