Psalm 145:1-5 NIV I will
exalt You, my God the King; I will praise Your name for ever and ever. Every
day I will praise You and extol Your name for ever and ever.
Great is the Lord and
most worthy of praise; His greatness no-one can fathom. One generation will
commend Your works to another; they will tell of Your mighty acts. They will
speak of the glorious splendour of Your majesty, and I will meditate on Your
wonderful works.
I can really applaud God
for His great works He has done in my life. He has delivered me from all evil
forces which had hold and a grip upon my life. He has broken down all the
forces of evil and has freed me I am so grateful and thankful to Him for
setting me free. I did not realise the extent of evil on this earth. I was
ignorant about Satan and his evil forces. I did not realise he had me in his
parlour trying to stop me from having a relationship with God but thankfully
God won the battle for me over him.
1 Samuel 17:47 All those
gathered here will know that it is not by sword or spear that the Lord saves;
for the battle is the Lord’s and He will give all of you into our hands.
Having been in the
darkness (evil) you are made aware of the strategies and tactics the devil uses
in people’s lives. Now I can see all the evil I had touched when I confessed my
sins before God and Jesus brought me into the Light with Him. The darkness
could not rule over me anymore. I had made my peace with God and was determined
I would never touch any kind of evil again.
When I was baptized in
the assemblies of God’s people I promised God through my testimony I would
always speak out about evil to others. I do not want others to be deceived by
the devil as the devil had deceived me. I would speak the truth then leave it
with them whether they wanted to believe what I told them was true or not. The
choice is there’s to make it is not mine it is up to the individual person to
choose what they wanted to do. As long as I made them aware of the evil and
was obedient to God I took my hands off the situation and left them in the
hands of God. I had done what God had asked of me.
You have to have the
experiences before you are able to talk about the experiences you have had in life. If
you have not experienced these things how will you know if they are true? It is
like having cancer if you have not had the disease how are you able to talk
about it to others. I have experienced first-hand what it is like to be in the
devil’s parlour and I am telling you it is not a very nice place to be. I would
not recommend it to anyone. Thankfully Jesus came and rescued me and now I am
free from all the darkness on the earth. The Blood of Christ has set me free. I
give all the honour, glory, praise and adoration to God our heavenly Father
through Jesus Christ our Lord and in the supernatural power of the Holy Spirit
of God. I cannot thank Him enough for all of His mercy, grace, love and
faithfulness He has shown towards me.
Thank you Avril for such a wonderful post. Hearing your story remind me of my own because I have some EXPERIENCE in how good God is. I recently wrote a post on how we must experience suffering to give clearer message about God. Because people can relate to our experiences. I look forward to reading more of your posts. http://www.startsandendwithyou.com/2013/10/26/if-we-want-his-glory-we-must-experience-his-story-part-1/
