Testimony: When I first read this scripture my thought was that sheep were smart enough to follow the shepherd’s voice, but Christians, including myself, don’t even know what the Great Shepherd’s voice sounds like. This gave me new insight into prayer and to be still before God, where I have a pen and paper always ready in case God wants to share something. God’s Word, the Bible, is the foundation for every Christian and He will never tell us anything that contradicts His Holy Bible.

Holy Bible Scripture: My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me (John 10:27)

(Scripture taken from the King James Version of the Holy Bible)

Prayer: Heavenly Father, I ask forgiveness that as your sheep, I have not listened to you the great Shepherd Jesus, nor have I really known your voice. I want to know your voice through constantly meeting and hearing you in my prayer life and studying the Bible. Let me be an obedient sheep. In Jesus’ name I pray.

Testimony: Some churches have become so blind that they say the Bible is just a history book. They preach from other historians rather than the Word of God and wonder why their congregations are dwindling. The blessed and growing churches are the ones who preach the Bible as God’s Word and give altar calls each service for people to commit their lives to Jesus. These churches have outreaches and help new people feel welcome by listening to their concerns so that their questions can be answered.

Testimony: Christians who have not seen Jesus are blessed because they have received Jesus by faith and not by sight. One Bible teacher explained that this is the reason why Jesus did not stay on earth and show himself to everyone after His resurrection. Jesus could easily extend Himself to be a giant, taller than the mountains, put a sword in people’s faces and say: “Now, do you believe?” Everyone would say “yes” in that situation, not out of love, but out of fear for their lives.

Discussion: How do you identify yourself with the disciples? Are you a doubter like Thomas who needs physical proof? Are you like one of the Marys who ran to the tomb early on Easter Morning? Are you like Peter who was ready to get out of the boat and walk on water?

Testimony: I have made the mistake of criticizing people, and in doing so, verified that this scripture is true, since my criticism came back to slap me in the face. If you criticize, your words will come right back to you in the same area in your life. I learned that this can help me see my blind spots. As soon as I am about to criticize someone, I quickly stop myself and say: “Do I do that also?” The answer is often yes, and now my blind spot has been revealed.

Holy Bible Scripture: Judge not, that ye be not judged. For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again (Matthew 7:1-2)

(Scripture taken from the King James Version of the Holy Bible)

Prayer: Heavenly Father, Let me not judge people. It seems that after I have been a Christian for a while, a judgmental attitude can creep up on me which is wrong, as that same judgment will come right back in my face. Please help me to judge words, but not the person speaking them. In Jesus’ name I pray.

Testimony: When I asked for the fire and baptism of the Holy Spirit, I noticed a change in my life. Not only had God given me a prayer language but I had a new hunger for the lost, and a new boldness to share Jesus. I also felt a new closeness with God to hear His voice.

(Scripture taken from the King James Version of the Holy Bible)

Prayer: Heavenly Father, I thank you for baptizing me in the Holy Spirit and fire. I see the importance and necessity of this baptism of the Holy Spirit to live a bold, victorious life for you. Let your fire cleanse me and your boldness empower me to do your will. I have to believe by faith that once I’ve asked, I’ve received. In Jesus’ name I pray.

Testimony: I need joy all the time. There have been times in my life when I felt like the children of Israel going through the desert. After prayer, joy would come and revive me. This joy of the Lord would encourage me to be like Joshua and Caleb. They were leaders who crossed the Red Sea on dry ground that made it into the promised land. Real lasting joy comes from a deep relationship with Jesus Christ being thrilled with the plan God has for our lives. Joy and laughter destroys fear, stress and anxiety. Joy and laughter from God is what the world is looking for but more Christians need to ask the fullness of God’s joy.

Testimony: Some people have criticized the church for not showing love and not having any more morals than they do. These people see one Christian denomination criticizing another denomination instead of loving them. They say the church is a bunch of hypocrites. I pray that these people will see Christian denominations work together as a team under one captain, Jesus Christ. I pray that Christians will love the lost with unconditional, unselfish love and have them look to Jesus as their example to follow.

Testimony: There used to be a time in my life when I was ashamed of the Gospel of Christ as I was more concerned with my career and was afraid that people would label me as a religious fanatic. When I asked for the baptism of the Holy Spirit, God gave me boldness to share with my colleagues. I often went to lunch with one colleague at a time as they would be scared to open up if any of their peers were listening. God blessed my work at this firm making me valuable to the company.

Testimony: One evangelist in Africa says intercession is the detonator to revival. Intercession involves praying in the spirit and praying this scripture so that the blinders would be removed from the non-Christian’s minds. This scripture says the god of this world (satan) is against the work of God. So powerful intercession involves binding (Mathew 18:18) all evil works and strongholds of the devil off the area and off the minds of the people so they would see the truth and see that the devil is out to ruin lives with sin. God’s plan is to give His forgiveness, love, peace, and eternal life to all mankind through His Son Jesus Christ.

Prayer: Prayer: Heavenly Father, The devil who is the god of this world has blinded many people’s eyes. I pray for the non-Christians that they may see the light of the gospel and be saved. In Jesus’ name I pray.

Testimony: A man in his 50s spoke to our men’s retreat. He shared his testimony that he had struggled with sexual sin for over 20 years. His audience could not believe that this man would humble himself as most people keep this kind of sin in the closet. God’s power broke him free of this habit when he went forward for prayer at a service. Now he is sharing his testimony all around the world.

Testimony: I have attended services in many denominations and in many countries. Some Christians prefer to close their eyes during worship to block out distractions while others were like spectators, more interested in looking to see who was there and what they were wearing. I found the growing churches have a worship mix of hymns (for the older generation) and modern worship songs (for the younger generation) and these churches have taught people to worship God in spirit and in truth.

Testimony: A missionary doctor was in the jungle with his group and went for 3 days without food. They were constantly praying for a miracle when little cyclones appeared in the lake and fish were caught up in those mini cyclones and dumped on shore. The Christians praised God for this amazing miracle as Jesus provided food for them. The doctor said he was so hungry, he ate the first fish raw!

Discussion: The rich countries do not see miracles like these because of their unbelief and trust in money and full grocery stores. If your country’s economy collapsed and you had no food, could you believe that God would feed you and your family? Take time to think how you would react in such a situation.

Holy Bible Scripture: And they had a few small fishes: and he blessed, and commanded to set them also before them. So they did eat, and were filled: and they took up of the broken meat that was left seven baskets. And they that had eaten were about four thousand: and he sent them away (Mark 8:7-9)

(Scripture taken from the King James Version of the Holy Bible)

Prayer: Heavenly Father, Jesus wanted the disciples to feed the multitude but they did not believe it was possible. Please remove all unbelief from me, and teach me to feed the hungry by your plan and not with my natural understanding. Teach me to believe in these type of miracles for your glory.

Testimony: At Bible College we were taught to use this scripture before going out on an evangelical mission. We would pray in the Holy Spirit for a long time before we started the outreach. During prayer we would ask for God’s power to descend on us for boldness and for miracles. During our prayer time, our team would sometimes get a vision of a door number or a place that we were suppose to go and visit. We would obey the Holy Spirit’s directions and bring the Word of God to that area. After we returned from these outreaches, we discovered that the more time we spent in prayer listening to the Lord, the more miracles we would see.

Prayer: Heavenly Father, Let me pray in the Holy Spirit for the power to come upon me before I witness for you Jesus.

Testimony: Christians need to rejoice more as they are the light of the world, yet many do not show it. I was convicted of this myself as I do not laugh and rejoice enough over the good things God has given me. I also need to smile more, as Christians who smile all the time, are great witnesses for the Lord.
