The Power of Your Testimony (Every Miracle Deserves a Testimony).
As a born again believer. We all possess the ability and command to bless other! God has given us the power of our personal testimony. Many think of a personal testimony as our life story of how we were saved. This is true but in no way is it the sum of our testimony. Testimonies happen everyday. Many times we don’t share what God is doing because we feel that it is to small or insignificant. Nothing God is doing in your life is small. We serve a living God who is at work in our lives daily. Every Miracle of God deserves a miracle. We would love to help you share the amazing life and miracle of Gods Power within his people. Sharing your testimony helps encourage others, releases the Power of God in your life and overcomes the devil.
"And they overcame him [the devil] by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, and they did not love their lives to the death." (Revelation 12:11).
WHAT IS A TESTIMONY?
Your testimony is about what you have experienced - what you have seen and heard. A real Christian can talk about their experiences with God through Jesus Christ. We as Christians are called to a relationship of real communication with the Son of God. God comes to live inside us. Things change. God deals with every person in a different way. The more Christians that come forward and talk about how God has intervened in their life, the more people will begin to realise that God is for real, miracles do happen, and prayer works. This will inspire others to seek God and turn from their sins so that they too can know the peace and satisfaction that comes to a person who truly gives their life over to God.
Acts 1:8 says, "But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth." To be a witness to Jesus is to speak and communicate the things that you have seen and heard in your life, that happened because of Jesus. Its the Holy Spirit who makes Jesus real to us, and makes Jesus real through us.
God's plan is for people to hear the good news that Jesus Christ payed for their sins, and conquered death for us through rising from the dead. After believing, people should go on to receive the power of the Holy Spirit, and then testify to others what God has done for them.
One of the greatest testimonies was from a power pagan emperor who came to know that the God of Israel was indeed God over all. King Nebuchadnezzar actually said in an announcement that went across the whole known world:
"I thought it good to declare the signs and wonders that the Most High God has worked for me." (Daniel 4:2).
Like Nebuchadnezzar, we should seek to glorify God all over the world. Now, with the advent of the internet, it is possible to do this all over the world with very modest resources. I want to encourage YOU to do your part in spreading the fame of our God by writing down your story and sharing it with us all through the medium of the internet. I have done this myself and my story, although not especially dramatic, has reached thousands of people around the world and continues to provoke responses from readers in the form of e-mail messages. I personally have collected scores of testimonies from all over the world, many of which can be read on my site here. Many people are getting challenged and uplifted by this. You too can share your story with the world through this site and others with a similar purpose. You can reach people that no one else can reach.
The Bible says, "Oh, give thanks to the Lord! Call upon His name; Make known His deeds among the peoples!" (1 Chronicles 16:8). If you have been rescued by God from your sin and the consequences of it, one of the ways you can express thanks to God is by telling others of what happened. Writing your story down will equip you to share it verbally with others, and will enable you to reach at least one person per day for the rest of your life for the Lord.
