Testimony: Many people have been fooled by “get-rich quick” schemes. A phony life insurance man came to my door and somehow made it into my apartment and onto my couch. He said “Pay me 99 cents a day and if you get killed, I will pay one lump sum of $500 to your family.” Doing the math in my head, I saw at once that this was a scam and asked the man to leave.

Testimony: Today’s society has many people saying the Bible is only a history book and is not actually the Word of God. Since these people don’t really believe in the whole Bible but pick and choose the sections that are convenient for their lifestyle, they go about establishing their own righteousness. Even some church leaders have let their intelligence overrule faith in the Holy Scriptures and wonder why healings and miracles don’t happen in their church.

Testimony: One Bible teacher shared the importance of speaking words of truth. He said that his own vocabulary had to change since God convicted him in so many areas.

However he went on to say that when God started shaping him, it wasn’t easy as he had to crucify his lusts and bad habits.

Testimony: One Bible teacher explained that walking by faith involves spending time everyday in the Holy scriptures letting the Holy Spirit speak to you through the pages of the Bible. It also involves mediating on scriptures over and over until you see yourself walking out the victory promise in the Bible. Faith begins where the will of God is known so walking by faith is knowing God’s will. Most people want to see the answers to their prayers before they will believe in them. That requires no faith at all. The teacher explained that you have to believe in the answer before you see it, as that is what walking by faith is all about.

Testimony: Many people expect financial or healing miracles to happen immediately and although that does happen, it does not happen to all. This scripture points out that through life one’s faith matures. One Bible teacher explained that you have to have patience with your faith, as patience will keep you speaking the solution before it (your prayer answer) is manifested.

Testimony: One church member gave anonymously for years. Later in life, he found himself handing money directly to people for missions (instead of using an offering envelope) so that the church member receiving the gift would know that it was from him. He was later convicted by God that his motives in giving were not totally pure since he wanted some recognition for his mission givings.

Testimony: A very prosperous businessman was tested for awhile to see if he would trust in his riches or use his riches for advancing God’s Kingdom. During prayer, this businessman felt God speak to him to buy a motel and invite evangelists to use it free of charge if they would pass out Christian tracts to the surrounding area so that all people in the vicinity would hear about Jesus . Several years later, when he felt the evangelistic work was done, he was approached by a land developer, who offered this businessman 20 times as much as he originally paid for the motel and property.

Testimony: In the 1980’s I heard a man prophesy about hand held computers and that God was saying His children were not listening to Him for inventions. It never occurred to me that good inventions were from God and, at that time, I didn’t know what a hand held computer was, since personal computers the size of desk tops were just coming out. Twenty years later, hand held computers are now called palm tops and are getting more powerful all the time. I now realize that God wants to give inventions to people that will use the invention and the income from it to advance His Kingdom.

They set sail again and in a certain location, they felt led to look down for the keys. One of them dove down and found the keys way down underneath the water on a big rock.
