    With dementia, my thoughts now are not clear, I know my heart and The Father does, but my periods of clearness lessen now, I pray my faith stays strong, thank you Paster.
  • I am 72 years old and I've been in constant, debilitating pain for 34 years. I've never questioned God. I'm looking so forward to seeing Jesus!

    in 1979 Billy Graham came to Tampa stadium for 2 or 3 nights,I was 16 years old and on the last night of his sermons I walked down to the stage and I received the holy spirit,thank you Pastor Graham.
  • Well said. I have been in a bad marriage for 20 yrs to a man who drinks, smokes pot, and hates the bible and Jesus. It wasn't this way in the beginning of our marriage although both of us were not born again when we married. I have learned to lean on Jesus so hard in my struggles and it has been good for my faith. If I'd had a happy marriage I may never sought God like I did. Now I pray for my husband instead of cursing him.

    Came from the lgbt, and I struggle with depression and anxiety and paranoid fits of psychosis. But even when i thought I was still unsaved because i wasn't baptized right, or i wasn't baptized in a full understanding of God. I worshiped him, and I prayed to him and as soon as I could I got baptized. Now i still struggle with mental illness, it may be something I struggle with my whole life. But I know that i would rather be here in this weak and vulnerable state before God, than to go back to how i was before. because even if I have times where I am paranoid and I am anxious and I feel the weight of the world on my head and my depression is at a place where i can hardly function. That I am somehow more blessed than I ever was before. Even at times when I doubt myself, and whether or not i am truly saved. I still worship and love God.

    I have lost two of my three children and God has pulled me through both deaths. I will love the lord no matter what happens in my life’s trials.

    "If you could lose your salvation you would. You have no power to retain it. " - man that hits really deep. Thank you Jesus for your grace.
  • I get mad at myself when I sin. I hate it, yet I know I am cover by the Blood of Christ. Thank you, Jesus for your Grace, and saving this sinner.
  • @alj3872
    From some who has dealt with depression and doubt of my salvation this video is gold and helped me so much! Thank you!

    I will never forget the feeling that overwhelmed me when I asked Jesus to Save me. The feeling of shame and guilt being removed and peace washing over me as The Holy Spirit entered my body. I have never had any doubts, and no exactly where I will spend eternity. "Ye must be Born Again."

    My dear Mom passed away from cancer. It was only the grace of God that pulled me through. The gift of faith is very important to see you through any situation. Amen

    In biblical times, shepherds would bring their sheep into town and put them in a corral. Perhaps, one or two other shepherds would come into town and put their sheep in the same corral. In the morning, the first shepherd would call his sheep, and only his sheep would come out, because they knew his voice. Jesus says, “I know my sheep, they hear my voice, for I am the good shepherd.”
  • One of my favorite quotes from John MacArthur “ you know you’re a Christian not by the perfection in your life but by the direction of your life”
  • @Jr1ch_24
    im 15 turning 16 and from what ive seen we are in the end times. Always wanting to make sure im right with God cause my worst fear is being there being judged by God and him sending me to hell. This really answered alot of questions for me and helped me be confident in the fact I am saved
  • “How do I know I’m obedient enough?” Spoiler: you never will be. that’s why you are completely reliant on Christ
  • The Holy Spirit has used this man tremendously. I hope he lives a great deal longer. He's needed in this age of unprecedented false teaching.
  • @Moverka
    I was saved 15 years ago. I went through 14 years of disobedience, almost died a few times, addicted to opioids/Fentynol. By the Grace of God, He never left me, I walked away from Him. But I’m now walking in Faith. Sober for a year. You can never lose your salvation. Amen

    Wow, as with all things when God speaks, its like these words were spoken just for me. John lists everything in almost perfect order the trials I have been through! From a mum who died of cancer, a dad who died, a person who left me, even the blot clot I was recently diagnosed with!! Crazy. My faith is intact, despite my bad choices because I didn't create it, God did when he stepped in and revealed His everlasting unchanging love for me. A year-old video I needed to hear at exactly the right time.
  • Oh Lord! God almighty! I magnify your name! Yaweh I give you all the glory for my life! Forgive my sins and my un confessed sins Lord! Lord I want more of you and less of me! I thank you for your protection! I am truly blessed and highly favored I sit in heavenly places and I am the son of a mighty King!!! I love you Jesus! Lord I pray for those who don't know you in a intimate way that they will humble themselves and come to know you on bending knee asking for their forgiveness! Father I bind the spirit of pride! I cut it off at the head and send it back to the pit of he'll in which it has come from! I release love, kindness, patience, humility in the name of Jesus! I followed my heart and I am glad I did. I lost my wife 2 years ago due to the pandemic and I was about giving up, knowing God has brought me this far was for a purpose and I kept on looking on to him. My destiny helper was sent to me the year my wife died. The moment I was about giving up, I was introduced to a business by a man I met in a seminar I went to in Florida. This was not my first time hearing of such business but I took the risk Investin 1OOO USD and it was worth it. info@markhanfarmer , C0M 4 weeks later I kept on getting earnings and I started using the money for Gods work. I am very popular in Maryland. Doing Gods work always give me joy. There is peace and joy in my mind . I am here to motivate you and tell you never to give up even though the situation seems so though. God has promised his children and he will surely do what he has promised his children.
