Growing Souls for His Kingdom

“Dear God, I want to keep Your Sabbath holy,” 14-year-old Stephanie prayed earnestly. “But my family says I have to go to the water park. What should I do?”

It was a sunny Saturday afternoon, and Stephanie had recently learned about God’s holy day during an Amazing Facts prophecy series.

Suddenly, unexpected storm clouds began darkening the sky—and, moments later, rain began to pour down.

Wow what a powerful testimony! Thank you for sharing! It encourages me to continue praying for a family member who has fallen away into the new age movement ...

Reading that testimony convinces me that God may be calling me to become an SDA. Please pray that God will help me make the right church decision-become an SDA or keep attending a local Baptist church.

Praise God, with every temptation He provides the strength to withstand plus a way of escape. Praise God for He help Stephanie out of her predicament. He is always faithful. He not only provided a way of escape but along with the escape she was also aloud to honor her parents. Yes our God is amazingly wonderful.

Hi my name is steve. I'm asking for prayer request for me. I know if we confess with our mouth and believe in our heart our heart is the main thing where we are to believe from. I know Christ when he looks at me he don't see me because his blood is covered me and I am a sinner no more but. I've been saved since August 24th and 1991 the Bible's real to me the Bible's alive to me in Christ is too amen. Had a lot of times I feel like I'm the Israelites wondering around in the desert for 40 years and getting nowhere at times but God was faithful to them when Moses passed he told Joshua the cross over the Jordan into the promised land that he had promised to the Israelites and I also feel like Paul and Romans chapter 7 verses 14 to 25. Paul wanted to do right but he was having that battle with his flesh and his spirit and at times that's the way that I feel like I am I know God loves me he spoke to me I've had visions and I've seen Heaven I've been there and I don't I can not deny what I seen I seen God's glory and millions of people with their hands out stretched in front of God's glory it was amazing pray for me I'm praying for God to use me and a special way God bless whoever reads and answers my story amen

When you read the Bible, the people in the Bible had struggles. Just remember that if you were the only one on earth, Jesus would have come and died for just you. He's always with you and will never forsake you. Following Jesus is a choice. Please make that choice often ever day.
