Sis. Phyllis's Testimony
Miracle of God's Love, Grace & Mercy
John 8:32, 36 says; "And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.
I started out life with parents who did not want me and who put me up for adoption.
There was however a lack of discipline in my life and I began
to think nobody cared.
As I approached my teen years I began to rebel against my home situation, school, and society. I went around with the wrong crowd and eventually began trying different drugs. The first drug was hash and very quickly I began getting into trouble.
My parents felt they could not handle me and contacted our family doctor who took charge its seems. He began to give me pills & needles that made me feel wonderful and like I was in a different world.
I had no cares while on these pills and did not realize that they would lead me into a life of addiction.
To make a long story short, after about 27 years of a life on drugs, and sexual and physical abuse I did reach that point of extremity in my life.
In the fall of 1979 after having taken two many drugs that became toxic to my system I went on a crime spree. This ended me up in court facing nine charges.
After a plea bargain five were dropped and I received time in prison for the other four.
One was for attempted armed robbery. I was a first offender and therefore received a short sentence.
While in prison I felt life had come to an end. My family did visit me including my two teen-age boys.
. A minister visited me weekly and counseled me and did Bible studies with me.
He helped me see my need of the Lord in my life.
One day in my prison cell I asked Jesus to come into my life.
I remember praying this prayer, "Lord there is not much left of me, but what there is you can have. Come into my heart and save me.
Forgive me of my sins and free
me from my addiction."
Immediately, I felt the presence of the Holy Spirit engulf my entire being . Tears streamed down my face as I realized what Jesus had done.
This was the beginning of the work of the Lord in my
life and unknown to me much more would take place later.
When I was released from prison I knew God had a ministry for me.
I had felt His call in my life while still in prison to help those in conflict with the law.
However I attended much counseling for the first year. After a time of proving in my life God began to open up doors of ministry and I became a court worker and parole supervisor and had received a pardon from the government of Canada and I began to visit the same prison I had been in and to counsel inmates and their families.
God gave me favor and blessed me.
One day I was surfing the internet and I came across the messenger paltalk (http://www.paltalk.com/) and decided to download it . On doing so I looked under Christianity and found the room ARMS AROUND THE WORLD (http://armsaroundtheworld.com/).
I felt led to go there and this was the beginning of a new journey in my life. I had been brought up in Trinity churches all my life my dad being a deacon in one of the churches for years
I did not know much about Jesus name teaching, and felt I had fulfilled what was required for me to be saved, but I was wrong .
The sinners prayer was not enough I learned. to get me into heaven. I studied several courses from a Trinity Seminary but that would not save me either for all the intellectual & theological knowledge in the world will not save you.
I listened on a regular basis in the arms room and I leaned that to be saved one must follow Acts 2:38, 39 which says.
38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name
of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
39 For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as
many as the Lord our God shall call.
. I had been baptized in Jesus name many years ago but did not fully understand what it meant.
and family would not allow me to attend the church where
I was baptized in JESUS NAME
which was an apostolic church. so it was a long time before God brought me into full truth.
I have Pastor Rutledge and the Arms Around The World Ministries and all my sisters and brothers there to thank for that.
Again I had never in my life been in a church where there is so much love and unity It is wonderful and I would ask anyone reading this to visit the Arms Around The World ministries and if you have a chance go to visit
Norwich Tabernacle . (http://norwichtabernacle.com/)
You will be blessed .
Jesus led me on a long journey from darkness to light, from prison to Praise .
If you are out there and you do not know which way to turn, with your life going no where and you
feel helpless, lonely and desperate, then turn your life over to Jesus. He can and will bring healing and
set you free from drugs or anything else that may have you bound. He will give you the same hope
that he gave to me. He will give you something worth living for. If I can be of any help to you please
contact me and I will, with God's help do all I can to help you find the Savior that I have learned to
love and serve.
When I found Jesus Christ as my Savior I experienced the greatest miracle of God's love, the gift of his
salvation and my life became a brand new one. I have freedom within my soul;
a freedom in Christ that I experienced and that is so real today.
What will you do with Jesus?
Will you obey Him or reject him?
What will you answer be?
I hope you will choose to experience God's miracle of love .God bless.
One of my favorite choruses I often sing is this one and I leave it with you
"You won't leave the way you came in JESUS NAME
Blind , oppressed , tormented , sick and lame
For the Holy Ghost of Acts is just the same
You won't leave the way you came in JESUS NAME."
