2 John 4 NIV It has
given me great joy to find some of your children walking in the truth, just as
the Father commanded us.
Having a relationship
with God is the most important relationship we could ever have. It was through
my own personal divine encounter with Jesus Christ in the hospital, which changed
my life radically. One moment I was walking in the path of evil and then suddenly
in a twinkle of an eye I found myself accepting Jesus Christ as my Saviour and
Lord and began to pray to God through Jesus Christ’s Name with the supernatural
power of the Holy Spirit of God who helped and showed me I was accepted and
adopted as God’s child into the Kingdom of Light with Him.
My walk with God began.
I had urgency for prayer and to read the Bible alongside my daily readings. Each
day was so exciting; I had such love and longings within my heart for God. I
could not wait to meet God and to sit with Him each morning in the place which
was special to me. God began to teach me through the Holy Spirit of God what He
wanted me to do. I yearned and thirsted for Him and found prayer and reading
God’s Word began to come alive within me. It brought me love, joy, peace and happiness
which I had not experienced for a long time. I knew this was all due to God
because He loved me and He was showing me how much His love meant. For the
first time in my life I realized that God’s love was different to the world’s
love. It was pure, holy and godly and I did not have to do anything to get it
but just open up my heart to receive it. It was an unconditional love which I didn’t
have to earn. I praised and thanked God continually. I could see God had always
loved and been faithful to me even before I knew Him personally I had never
felt quite like this before. I was changing and seeing things from His point of
view and not my own.
He showed me He had
always watched over me and took care of me in everything I needed. On hindsight
God had protected me from all evil and harm and did not let the enemy have his
way in my life because He had chosen me and I belonged to Him. Even though I
had to go through many trials and tribulations some of those trials were
unpleasant at the time but God taught me how to lean, rely, and depend upon Him
and He met each one of my needs as they came.
Having these trials brought
me into a deeper and closer relationship with God. He encouraged and helped me
and taught me how to persevere and to trust Him and never to give up even when
the trials were tough. I knew God’s plans were perfect for my life and nothing
on this earth would ever thwart the plans God had made for me. He did not say
it would be easy for me but what He did say was He would be there to help me
through each situation I faced. My faith is in God. I trust and expect Him to
work out all the details He has planned for my life with Him being in His
rightful place as head of my household. I would do the best I could to walk in the
path of truth with Jesus Christ and always would be thankful that the Holy
Spirit of God was within me to help me to keep the commandments of my Father.
