Can u share ur testimony? What has God done for you?

Question

Here is mine first of all. Besides saving my soul and keeping me alive for 3 months straight after being born 3 months early at 1 pound and 6 ounces, he has totally been transforming my heart!!

I have stopped believing the lies that I have believed that I am not good enough for God or anyone else and that I have to stay that way, but that just wasnt the truth. I have had a true encounter with Jesus and He is changing my heart day by day.

The biggest change is He is setting me free from homosexuality. Yes homosexuality. I grew up with a horrible relationship with my Dad and an inferiority complex and so throughout my young teenage/adult life I have looked for that affirmation and acceptance in other men whom I thought had it all. The looks, attitude, and masculinity. But that is so dysfunctional!!

You may feel it's ok to be g*y, but if you can look at a man (or woman if you're a woman) that you feel embodies masculinity and just plain mainlines and feel inferior and weak compared to such a person, then you still have unresolved issues. I did too.

God has showed me that looking for that acceptance and affirmation in anyone else is never 100% satisfying or lasting like it is if I had sought Him first. And let me tell you Jesus has forgiven me and healed me 100% and that is the same for anyone that wants to seek Him FIRST as opposed to putting something or someone else first. For me I thought I needed other men first, but that was not so. I was drinking from a well that was highly stagnant and polluted.

The question still stands, what is your testimony and what has God done for you?!

Answer 1

first of all I praise God for what he has done for you,

He saved me and that is the most important thing right there,

I was a promiscuous teenager who became pregnant at 15,

my boyfriend married me and when my daughter was born Jesus stepped into my life and turned me around.

I didn't have a great relationship with my dad either and that is why I thought I could find love with those boys,

I was confusing love with s*x,but the Lord set me straight on that and now my husband is saved and I know what true love really is,

all because Jesus loved me.

been married 27 years now to the same man.

Answer 2

HALLELUIAH !!!  Plucked from the fiery pit !  Praise Jesus !!!

Well, God has done so much for me that I could sit here and type all day and night, and still not get past the tip of the iceberg !

I thank God for your testimony !  Gonna list a link or two that you may want to read .  Keep the faith !!!  May the Lord continue to bless you !!!  Halleluiah !

"'g*y'-rights leader quits homosexuality."

I guess you'll have to type this in your bar to find it.  I thought it was a link.  The article is about Michael Glatze .  Or, just type in Michael Glatze and see the story and history.  God is able !  Halleluiah !!!

Answer 3

From the very beginning of my life I look back and see the hand that has guided and planned, which of course, is God's.

My mum suffered a severe stroke when I was just 11 days old which left her incapable of looking after me. My dad needed to look after her and I was placed with one of my mother's aunt's, the only one of the eleven children who was a Christian. I had the privilage of being brought up in a Christian home.

I was married at the tender age of 19 and moved away to live in my husband's home town. We have been married for 32 years, and have five children. There have been many joys and sadness over these years, but I have experienced the Lord in such remarkable ways.

I became a Christian when I was 13 after two close members of my family died within five months of each other. One was a Christian and the other was not (as far as I am aware). I saw the hopelessness which surrounded the death of one, and the hopefulness which surrounded the passing of another. This had a big impact on my life, and I knew the Gospel as I had heard it week in and week out since knee high. However, I decided that I wanted to live Jesus' way, and although I was just 13, it was the best decision of my whole life.

At the most devastating time of my life, Jesus was everything to me - let me share:

My 12 year old son met with a tragic accident in his bedroom, this happened 10 years ago.

I remember vividly, how after the death of my son Paul-John, when the family went back to school and work, and I was left on my own in these early days of raw fresh grief. Although I had plenty of friends and family who were so good to me, there were still periods of time when I would be alone throughout the day. I would often pick up the telephone to speak to someone and pour out my grief to them. One

particular day, I reached to the phone, and heard God's voice

clearly....He said....no...come, tell me instead. I am so glad I

heard God's voice and obeyed Him, because that was the beginning of a very close, precious and beautiful relationship which I had never experienced in such intensity in my walk with God before this time.

Each time I spent with Him, He never failed to comfort me I was never disappointed. In fact, I would be excited to see the family off to work and school so that I could get into His presence, to see what He would show me, and to experience His comfort and His love. Sometimes, I could not utter a word in prayer because of the intensity of my grief. I would just fall on my face and sigh, 'Oh God', help me', but there was never a time when I would come away without being comforted.

Jesus would flood my soul with all He had for me that day. What more could I ask for...What a wonderful Saviour and Lord.

He truly is My Rock, My Fortress and My Deliverer.....In whom I trust.

Answer 4

Answer 6

Too bad your god didn't do something about that prematurity.

It was humans and modern medicine that kept you alive. If left up to your 'god', you would have died.

Answer 7

His done sod all for me, I went to church since I was 15 and nothing, everything was down hill, so I stopped going and started truly living.

Answer 8

I was an atheist, and became a Christian while reading the Gospel of Matthew in a hotel room. Accepting Jesus Christ as my Lord and Saviour from sin and becoming a Christian was the best thing I ever did. God has blessed me in so many ways, and I praise and thank Him, and recommend Him to everyone. God is so good. Thank you for giving me this opportunity to give glory and praise to God.

Answer 10

back around April, a bible instructor of mine gave me the greatest advice i've ever had in my life. usually every wednesday we would always meet up at college and just fellowship, her, her friend and i. and only after knowing them for two years, they both told me they were leaving the country to go fellowship with other college students in New Zealand and i think France. of course i was heartbroken for a while becuase these two brought me closer to God then i ever was. but both of them going away at the same time it was not a coincidence, obviously, they were needed somewhere else and GOd said it was time for them to go and help someone like they helped me.

so she said to me

"before i go i just want to give you some advice, ask the Lord to put your life in his hands, just completly give yourself up to him. and remember the day you do this."

it was May 2nd that i did do this. i had a heart to heart talk with God. i was in a garden all by mself that the college had recently built. i put the cell phone to my ear to act like i was talking to somebody just incase somebody saw me talking. and i let my heart out. it was very thorough and very emotional. at the time i was worried about finding a job. i had searched and searched, applied for countless jobs and still nothing worked. before, God had gave me a job in a SNAP, TWICE. so i thought he'd do it again, but weeks turn to months and then a year rolled around.so i told God to forget about it, i told him to just relax me, and that whatever happens happens.

so over a few weeks, my life started to change, it really did. i was introduced to a job that i never thought i would ever get, i am now a receptionist/operator and it pays really well. i am surrounded by very generous loving people with the greatest boss in the world. my job is so wonderful that i dont mind going to work, its just like sitting in my room when i work.

AND recently my student loan came back. before i had filed for regular financial aid, but they only gave me a lousy 900 bucks, so i started to lose faith and i was like "God...what is this??" becuase my mom and i had prayed for my college tuition. but my student loan gave me almost 4000. so yea hes moving in my life alot right now!!

GOd gave me another favor at work  2 weeks ago. what have i done to deserve such things from him. he's awesome!!!

Answer 11

THATS SO WONDERFUL!!!!!!

He has walked with me for 32 yrs...Ive got 2 beautiful kids and 3 grndbabies... wonderful attentive 2nd husband after going thru the first marriage which was abusive etc...

Answer 12

nothing really that's why i am agnostic  

Answer 13

I was born not breathing.  In 1965, that was usually a death bell, but God proved the doctors wrong.  I was in the hospital for 3 months after birth, but I have been fine since.  All thanks to the Lord God Almighty!

Answer 14

1) This is NOT a Christian chat room.

2) This is NOT a Christian apologetics board.

3) This is NOT your personal fantasy board.

4)  The septuplets born to a Muslim woman in Egypt all weighed the same as you did when your born (amazing how your remember that) and Allah is keeping THEM alive and healthy....does that prove that ISLAM is stronger than Christianity, and Muhammad was smarter than Jesus????

5) Not your god nor your psychiatrist is ever going to change your sexual orientation.  If you ARE homosexual, it is something you will have to learn to live with...unless you want to spend the rest of your life wallowing in false, suicidal, guilt.

6) The way you are hung up on 'looks, manliness, masculinity'  is all the 'testimony' I need to figure out YOUR problem.

7) Stop perverting the purpose of yahoo answers by spilling your guts in  public....no one really gives a shite whether your heart beats faster for  muscles or big b*****s!

PaulaP:

Gee, I have two g*y nieces...one has been 'married' to the same woman for 32 years; the other has been married to the same woman for 36 years.  I guess Jesus must REALLY love them....Ya think???

All of you witnesses:

Supposedly, fraud is not quite what Jesus expects of his followers....so why are you all so FLAGRANTLY perverting the purpose of YAHOO ANSWERS by turning it into a Christian chat room ????  Is THAT what Jesus taught you??????????

Answer 15

Thats awesome.

God is so amazing and has done sooo much for me. You have no idea. Im only 16 and ive had it rough the past year or 2 with my best friends death and a lot more. At first I blamed God, but now I realize Hes the one whos helping me get through it. I just got back from a missions trip to Africa. It was amazingg! I thank God he gave me that oppurtunity. Ive seen so many teenagers feel so alone because they dont know God. But once you find Him and have a relatrionship with him, your life will be turned completely around!

Answer 17

God has totally changed my life.  He has given me something to hold on to...something solid and true.  He is not a man that He should lie.  He will never leave us or forsake us.  He carries us in times of trial and provides a way of escape in times of temptation.

I am fed by the hand of God.

I am clothed by the hand of God.

I live because He lives.  

He is my Lord and He is Lord of All.

God has kept me when I should have been dead. Literally. He's protected my family--we are all very blessed with our health and sound minds. I went from being unemployed to having a near six-figure job, and even while unemployed, I was never hungry, always had a roof over my head, made the car payment and insurance and had everything I needed. God has also blessed me to meet some wonderful people who know him well.

Nothing; god is a fiction.  Anything which you attribute to god is strictly happenstance.
