Summary

I share my personal journey of discovering love, hope, and purpose through Jesus Christ. There was a time when I thought that I had to do everything in my own strength, which led me down a path of depression and hopelessness. But everything changed when I encountered the love of Christ. His grace transformed my heart, renewed my mind, and gave me a purpose far greater than I ever imagined. If you’ve ever felt lost, hopeless, or unsure of your purpose, this testimony is for you—a living reminder that in Christ, our lives are a blessing and our true strength is found in Him.

Summary

My name is Matt Mbanga and I want to share how God restored my life after a devastating motorbike accident that left me badly injured and questioning my identity. I grew up in Zimbabwe, struggled to belong as a mixed-race kid, and later experienced wild days in university in Texas – leading to a lifestyle of parties, drinking, and a dangerous search for validation. Then everything changed when I was involved in a severe accident: I spent days in a coma, underwent multiple surgeries, and endured a long, painful recovery that even left me in a wheelchair. During those dark hours, my mother’s steadfast prayers and a stranger’s gifted Christian book opened my eyes. As I slowly embraced the truth of God’s redemptive work—both in healing my body and restoring my spirit—I began to understand who I truly was. Today, having reclaimed my identity, I’m dedicated to a life of purpose, forgiveness, and leadership. I now share my testimony to encourage anyone feeling lost or broken that God’s restoration is real.

Summary

I grew up feeling lost and unseen, never raised in the faith despite a loving home. Life became a quest for worth and acceptance—from the pressures of high school popularity to college partying and broken relationships. I wandered searching for purpose until a chance encounter with a purpose-driven book led me to Google ‘Jesus.’ That spark changed everything. In the midst of depression, heartache, and a diagnosis of OCD, I experienced God’s gentle intervention through fasting, persistent prayer, and His healing Word. Today, I stand transformed by Jesus’ deliverance, trusting Him to restore every broken piece of my life. My testimony is a declaration that no matter how shattered we feel, His love renews and redeems us.

      Summary

      I was once an extremely shy and timid introvert, content to hide away with my books and avoid attention. Even though I accepted Jesus when I was very young, I struggled with expressing my faith until God gently nudged me out of my comfort zone. Over time, through His loving guidance, I experienced a profound transformation. My identity shifted from fear and invisibility to becoming a bold witness of His love—a transformation that now compels me to share my testimony and inspire others to embrace the life-changing power of Jesus.

      I’m so glad God shook this introvert out of her comfort zone. I thought my identity was something totally different from what He finally would reveal to me. It is now that I truly feel fulfilled, and myself.
      P.S. – still an introvert, lol.

      Summary

      I share my personal journey of transformation—from a childhood steeped in Catholic tradition, through a phase of idolizing toxic relationships and seeking validation, to a point where I lost myself completely. In my vulnerability, I experienced heartbreak and isolation, which eventually led to a season of deep prayer and solitude with God. During this wilderness season, I endured physical pain, even breaking my foot, as a divine discipline that captured my attention. In the quiet, I began to heal my long-held wounds: abandonment issues, insecurities, anxiety, and depression. Through persistent prayer and the gentle, patient work of the Holy Spirit, I discovered a renewed identity in God—a season of dating Him that transformed my life and restored my self-worth.

      Summary

      I struggled with being deaf and feeling isolated until a revival group showed me true family acceptance. In that moment I discovered that I am perfect in every way because God’s love transforms my insecurities into strength. My journey is a testimony of overcoming rejection through genuine care and divine intervention.

      Summary

      Hi, I’m Emily. I was raised in a busy church environment where I learned the Bible from a very young age. Despite the constant presence of faith in my life, I struggled with deep feelings of inadequacy—I even cried myself to sleep, convinced I was doomed to hell because I never measured up to God’s standards. Over time, the breakup of both my family and church left me in despair, and I fell deeper into sin. I repeatedly prayed the sinner’s prayer, yet felt no change. It wasn’t until I truly repented and embraced the genuine, transformative gospel that I experienced the true freedom and healing promised by Jesus. My testimony is a call to examine whether the spirit moving in our churches is the true Holy Spirit or a false one, and a plea for us to cling to the authentic gospel that delivers us from sin.

      ### Are There False Spirits in the Church Today?

      ### Are We Preaching a Different Gospel That Keeps People Enslaved to Sin?

      In this amazing and eye-opening testimony by Emily, you get the answers to those questions. If her testimony were the only one we could consider, we might think it is not proof enough regarding these questions. But sadly, we have met many others with similar testimonies like Emily’s.

      However, the way Emily tells it, along with the video documentation of both the false Holy Spirit and the true baptism in water and the Holy Spirit—where true freedom comes from—is unique in so many ways.

      Don’t miss this very special testimony!

                    Summary

                    My name is Miguel V, and I’m originally from Chicago, Illinois. I endured profound childhood trauma—starting at age six—with abuse, bullying, and exposure to harmful influences that led me to adopt a false identity. I felt rejected and unworthy, and my life spiraled into addiction and self-destruction. Through divine interventions, including a powerful saving encounter during a time of institutional crisis and later support from Pure Life Ministries and a spiritual mentor, I discovered my true identity in Christ. Today, as a devoted husband, father, and active church member, my life is a testimony to God’s transformative love and grace.

                    Miguel endured significant childhood trauma, including sexual abuse, bullying, gender confusion and suicide attempts. He distanced himself from God and embraced a life of addiction, and a false identity. Struggling with his self-worth and burdened by the lies of the enemy, Miguel’s life spiraled into darkness, leading him to embrace a lifestyle that brought temporary relief but deepened his inner turmoil.

                    However, through the miraculous intervention of God, Miguel’s life began to change. His journey to healing was marked by a powerful encounter with God’s love, which helped him see himself as the man he was created to be. Through a series of divine encounters, Miguel not only found freedom from his past but also discovered his identity in Christ. Today he is a devoted husband and father, and his life is a testament to the transformative power of God’s love and grace.

                    Summary

                    I struggled for years feeling unworthy—questioning my name, appearance, and place in the world. Growing up in a missionary home in central India, I felt isolated and longed for genuine care. Despite early moments of giving my life to Christ, painful experiences deepened my inner turmoil. Then, through playing melodies to God, I encountered His love in a transformative way. Learning that my name meant ‘comforted by God’ helped me forgive my parents and embrace a renewed identity. Today, I live as a testament to God’s healing power and His unwavering love.
