I found Jesus behind bars
Jesus saved me out of prison and gave me new life in him
before I was saved I was afraid of being sent to prison, I was afraid of going to hell, I was in so much stress and trauma hurt, anger that endangered my soul, I felt so empty I gave my all to revenge to fulfill my own selfishness. But after I received Jesus I am blessed with his peace, his gift of dreams and prophecy, I was free from prison he rescued me from my bitterness and took the heavy burden I carried of un forgiveness and hate. I became regretful of nothing after everything lead me to that moment of Jesus and seeing what he did for me and how he communicated with me.
I was facing a 5 year sentence for stabbing my daughters fathers mistress after I caught him cheating on me. I was charged with domestic violence assault 2 with a deadly weapon and when I finally snapped out of my anger in jail realizing I had gave in to temptation and how much I hurt my family my daughter and myself, I called out to Jesus and asked him to save me from my situation. I begged him to free me and fight for my case and I was so afraid. But my hope was in Jesus and I said I know you are the true judge, you see the wrongdoings that has happened to me, and I confessed my sins of taking it into my own hands when revenge was his. I received dreams in jail and I seen him raise the dead, I seen the cup of blood given to me and from death to life he saved me, I seen the devil flee in my dream and I gave it back its books, and I seen the bible drop from the ceiling above and I read about a verse of a horse. When I woke up I seen words encircling me and then vanish. I knew it was John 1:1 that God gave me a dream. I opened the Bible and prayed I asked God to show me what he wanted me to read out of the Bible. and it was psalm 32 and in that psalm there was a parable about a horse. I started to cry and realize he is speaking to me. I had other books in my jail cell that was speaking of other gods and pharaohs and so I grabbed them, went outside my cell to go downstairs to return the books on the shelf, I actually threw them since no-one else was around which was unusual, because I remembered the feeling in my dream, and then an inmate knocked on their cell door to get my attention and said "were in lockdown you're not suppose to be out" and I ran back into my cell and thought wow. Jesus opened a door for me that no man can shut, He made a way for me to throw away the devils books. I praised God for that and more dreams I received about the future and seeing them come true. I asked God to let me out on an exact day, I said Lord I want you to free me and let me go home on November 22 and I believe with all my heart that he can free me and I received that faith thru a dream he gave me when I seen myself leaving the jail and driving away on the street I past by a billboard that said " JESUS CHRIST IS THE LORD" and I seen that I left with this one inmate named Kelly. when I woke up I told her that I am getting out the same day as her, and I said God showed me in a dream. And she looked at me and laughed and said I'm just dreaming, the reality is there is a high chance I'm going to prison since I stabbed someone, and she tried to comfort me. but truth is I was already comforted by God and he gave me this knowledge to know that it was not just a dream. THREE DAYS after I prayed for november 22 I was home. I got on the same bus that escorted me and Kelly out of that jail. I Told her Im going home the same exact day she is and she started to cry because it came true, my dream came true. And she said God was speaking to her thru me and she received faith. I pray for Kelly wherever she is. I just thank God for being there for me and saving my life, saving my soul. Amen
After this time in my life I have been called to a higher standard of living and I am by his strength able to overcome this world with him, he is feeding me growing me everyday and I am going to go back to jails and visit the prisoners sharing my testimony and going to glorify Jesus
Now I have a faith as big as a mustard seed bigger, and theres nothing my God can't do for me and for those who believe in him. I am now filled with joy healing and transformation I am so happy for everything God has done for me.
Now I am one month away from expunging my record as a felon since my charge got dropped from an assault to an attempted assault and I was sentenced to 5 year probation, which I got the sentence cut in half for good behavior, and I was saved by the grace of God to not violate my probation. I am going to be clean record next month and will be able to apply to become a chaplain in jails and hospitals which I want to do as well as visit the orphans. I had been blessed with a career when all minimum wage jobs denied me God made a way for me to make 4 figures a month at one point to now entrepreneuring my own business, to be my own boss and inspired me to write a testimony about my life to publish to those walking in the shoes I had. I want to share it anyway I can and give God the glory he deserves and just thank Him Im able to share such an amazing testimony to my brothers and sisters in Christ. Thank you for reading.
I am confident in Gods unfailing love, his promises when he is faithful to us even when we are unfaithful, that no-one can snatch me out of Gods mighty hands, and that I trust in his grace, in his blood that shed for my sin. I will always trust in what Jesus done for all. who believe him and try harder to do his will. Live for Christ, sacrificing our bodies for him, please pray for me and God bless you.
Your testimony matters too
