A testimony testifies to what God has done in your life. The more Christians that share their testimonies and talk about how God has intervened in their life, the more people will begin to realize that God is for real, miracles do happen, and prayer works. Christian testimonies inspire others to seek God so they can also know the peace and satisfaction that comes to a person who truly gives their life over to God.
Acts 1:8 says, “But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.” To be a witness to Jesus is to speak and communicate the things that you have seen and heard in your life that happened because of Jesus. It is the Holy Spirit who makes Jesus real to us and makes Jesus real through us.
The most important thing to testify of, though, is not physical miracles, as wonderful as they are, but the way God has redeemed your soul - brought you out of the hand of the devil for Himself. The Bible says in Psalm 107:2, “Let the redeemed of the Lord say so, whom He has redeemed from the hand of the enemy”. It’s a wonderful thing when we can honestly testify that we now know God has forgiven our sins. If God has redeemed you, then you should say so - publicly.
“I thought it good to declare the signs and wonders that the Most High God has worked for me.” (Daniel 4:2).
“And they overcame the enemy by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, and they did not love their lives to the death.” (Revelation 12:11).
Share how you felt during your experience. Please don’t use religious words and biblical phrases that people untrained in the Bible are not familiar with. Even some Christians don’t understand a lot of the biblical phrases, or the meaning of some words. Try to make your testimony clear for someone who has no knowledge of God or the Bible, and put yourself in their shoes as you write your testimony. Be real and tell how God helped you through it all. Be a blessing and submit your testimony contribution to Faith Travels Ministries so that we can share it with the world.
If God has worked powerfully in your life, please share it so others can benefit. It will remind you of how God has worked and it will encourage others to believe in God. It may be the means by which another precious person comes to a saving knowledge of the Lord Jesus. So please do it. Begin to write your testimony today!
