Testimony of the power of God

The greatest benefit of eternal life is knowing that even while here on earth GOD is always with me wherever I go. When you think your lost, I have found out it's a road that you will need to travel later in life. Hope is a word given to me over 30 years ago in a ministry known as WDLC (Women Determined To Live For Christ). Each woman had to speak on a topic inspired by the Holy Spirit. Through this word hope I learned to look unto JESUS CHRIST who truly is the Author and Finisher of my faith.

Many times both in the past and still today I would get lost driving to places over 1-3 hours that should only take 10-15 minutes to get there, It was either miscommunication with my navigator or I had taken the wrong exit. Later sometimes years I found myself on the same road where I was lost and said I've been this way before and was able to get to the destination in a timely manner. With the word hope I would whisper to my daughter while in church, I hope we go to Heaven when we die. She said with such assurance at the age of 10, I know I'm going to Heaven mom. I had to question my faith and pray to God that He would give me assurance also. It didn't happen overnight.

I know beyond the shadow of doubt that the God who was with the 3 Hebrew boys in the fire and with Daniel in the lions den is with me today directing my path daily. I know because I have heard His audible voice many times. When I was at places I shouldn't have been He said you don't belong here. When I was in the courthouse to get full custody of my first grand-daughter in Michigan I had such an overwhelming feeling of doom that I could feel myself about to faint but the Holy Spirit said, you are more than a conquerer thru Jesus Christ, you are above and not beneath, you have not been given the Spirit of fear but of power, love and a sound mind. with the Holy Spirit encouraging me I began to sit up straight and actually smile. Fear was gone. I spoke the truth and my husband and I got full custody of our grand-daughter.
