Greetings in the Name of Jesus Christ.
I want to share what God has done in my life.
Until November 4, 2013, I was addicted to football, movies, news, an avid football team supporter, went to stadiums, cinemas, and all that was worldly distraction. And this happened even being baptized, and calling myself a "Christian."
When there was a thought about death or the Rapture, I was afraid and asked myself: Am I ready? The truth is, I knew I was not ready.
On November 4, 2013, I remember it was a Monday, and saw my pastor talking to my brother on the phone, and realized that it was about television and a witness posted on branham.org site (I cannot remember the title) of a sister who thanked God for having taken the TV out of her home, and peace reigned in her house.
At that moment I saw the pastor say that he would never turn on a TV in his house; just then I did the same thing. I took out the television, and all the things I mentioned earlier. You may ask if I did that because I wanted. Never. By my will I planned to buy a 60 inch TV, latest release, to put in my bedroom.
But on November 4, 2013 God began to show His GRACE to me. He showed me that it was useless to continue to put trust in my own strength to get out of the devil's slavery, it was He who did it for me. The only part that it was for me to do was to accept the plan of redemption, ADOPTION, which he had prepared for me before the foundation of the world.
He showed me that it was not me who chose Him, but that He chose me. He showed me that it was not I who wanted to hear the Voice of God, the Voice of Brother Branham, was He that chose me to be part of this SELECT people who hears His voice. It was not me who decided to make Quiet Time every day, it was not me who decided to hear a tape a day to keep the devil away, it was not me who decided to follow the Jubilee, it was not me who decided to participate in quizzes, but it was HIS GRACE, HIS GRACE, HIS GRACE who did all that for me. He lifted me out of the devil's slavery and made me His prisoner.
Here's a tip: If you want the recipe to be free from the trap of the devil, take note:
- Put God first in your life;
- Listen to a tape a day, so that you keep the devil away from you;
- Do Quiet Time every day;
- Follow the Jubilee regularly and participate in quizzes;
- Visit branham.org every day.
You can be sure, in a very short time you will notice what God will do in your life. Blessings than you never imagined could happen to you will begin to happen regularly, and you will begin to feel the pleasure to enjoy the privileges that God has given us.
I challenge you to put this into practice and then come here and tell us what happened to your life. I am a witness of THIS; applying these five items the DELIVERANCE IS SURE.
God bless you all and thank you, Lord, for Your Grace.
A brother from Brazil.
