TOPIC: THE TESTIMONIES OF PETER ISAAC (7): HOW I RECEIVED SALVATION IN HOREMOW
TEXT: PSALM 93:1-5
KEY VERSE: PSALM 93:5 “Thy testimonies are very sure; holiness becometh Thine house, O LORD, forever.”
In 2021, I came back to Madalla to continue my treatment. A brother that had preached to me earlier before my accident came back and resumed the preaching. He reminded me of what he had told me earlier and of my response at that time. Actually, in the course of his preaching, he had told me not to pursue a career in professional football because football was a sin and I had disdained him, saying that no one in this world could stop me from football except God.
He encouraged me to surrender my life to Jesus Christ and asked if I knew Sister Linda. I said, “Yes. I know her as a woman from Sierra Leone that Jesus took to hell and to heaven. That woman that was telling lies in hell and the demon said, ‘even in hell you are still telling lies’ and also said that as she was in hell, Jesus was speaking through her body but her brother did not believe until Jesus exposed his secret sin.”
The brother was happy that I had listened to the testimony and told me that sister Linda is in Abuja. I asked, “Where?” He said she is married to a Nigerian pastor and is living in Kwali. I determined to go and see her despite the fact that I was undergoing treatment and walking with clutches.
Fortunately, I came to Kwali for international youth conference in July 2021. On the last day of the program, as Pastor Paul Rika came up to minister, the Lord reminded me of the revelation I had earlier. It came fresh to my memory and I recognized the minister as Pastor Paul Rika. Immediately, I turned to the person that invited me and told him that I have seen the pastor before in my dream and narrated the dream to him.
I then opened my heart to listen to everything Pastor Paul Rika was saying and made up my mind to give my life to Christ. I believed and received the word with joy. When announcement was made for water baptism, I realized that I was baptized as a sinner and decided to do the proper baptism there in Holiness camp.
Thought for the day: Blessed are they who do hunger and thirst for righteousness
Song for the day: Some years ago, I gave my life to Jesus
Bible reading for the day: Jeremiah 50
