Christian Testimony Changes Lives

Faith-edifying Testimony

Brethren, we have received no Word from the Lord for this week’s article. As you may see, we too are being tested (in addition to what we shared in last week’s “How to Know God is Testing You” article). Without divulging the details of the test that we are currently facing, The Lord has been subjecting us every year, at different times, to some tests, and we hope to share with you at a later stage if the Lord permits. Please pray for this family and ministry for strength and increase of faith! As a ministry, and after prayer, it seemed good to the Holy Spirit and us that we share part of our testimony with you. This will be a rather brief account with some excerpts from our ‘testimony book’. We call it so because the messages we received from the Lord have been recorded and preserved in this book(s).

As Christians, we have a mandate and command from the Lord to tell everyone “…what great things God has done for [us] you” (Luke 8:39).

From the onset, we do not claim to have a superior testimony to that of other believers in Christ, nor are we attempting on setting ourselves apart as having the best testimony. We humbly share the truths from the Lord for your edification. To us, and many other believers in this ministry, our testimony, together with the testimony of the apostles and others, is convincing proof that Jesus Christ, the author of the Christian faith, is ALIVE (Revelation 1:18).

Furthermore, we must recall that the Christian faith is based on the testimony of the work of Christ in the lives of the earlier witnesses (Acts 2:32; 5:32), with the deep convicting power of the Holy Spirit convincing us through the evidence of our outward living. Christianity is not based on a forced lifestyle and carefully coded rituals, but on a joy-driven appreciation for the saving power of Christ Jesus (John 15:11). In addition, every Christian has been given a testimony that lines up (or should line up) with the Bible.

Therefore, the Christian message is a joyful testimony of faith to what the Lord Jesus has produced in our lives. We encourage Christians everywhere to share their testimony of love, peace and hope in Christ Jesus without being ashamed of their faith. Don’t allow the offensive insults from the worldly-driven people to slow you down; excel in love, good works and the joy of your testimony (1 Corinthians 4:1-2). Keep your testimony and don’t lose your confidence in Christ (Hebrews 10:35).

Our Testimony

As it is, we have been sharing our testimony through various messages, visions, experiences and words from the Lord with you. Remember, we freely share what we have heard and experienced in order to encourage you in your most holy faith in Christ Jesus while preparing you for the Kingdom of Heaven, which is very, very near according to the Lord’s own Word to us.

Below are some words Charis wrote down as she heard from the Lord. My wife and I later encouraged her to write down exactly what the Lord said, instead of just telling us what He said. We have decided to selectively share, without any alterations, from the earlier accounts, which started the establishment of this ministry. The latter of her writings are direct commands and some serious rebukes; it is not our intention to ‘expose’ our hidden sins, so these will therefore not be made available here. It must be considered that Charis was only nine and half years when she started writing down the Lord’s words. Her spelling was therefore based on the sound of words from the Lord, and that is how she wrote at the time. Therefore, for your better understanding we have transcribed some passages, and included pictures of  the original messages at the end.

March 18
The Lord said to me that my father (Glenn) must starting praying by this house (our place) and then they will see where they will pray next. They must pray for five(5) Saturdays by each one’s house. The Lord loves us. They can pray as long as they want because as long as they pray now the Lord said that He is coming tonight [This was for His next visit].

Christian's Being Ambassadors Of Peace

 Stifle The spirit Of War

“Also, I tell you that if two of you on earth agree about something and pray for it, it will be done for you by my Father in heaven. This is true because if two or three people come together in my name, I am there with them” (Matthew 18:19-20 NCV).

Vision To Brother Glenn (12 April 2024)

I had a vision in the early hours of the morning, in that vision I saw a well known Christian Brother amongst UN delegates pleading the course for peace. After prayer, the Lord revealed to me that He has called Christians as His ambassadors of peace and we must pray for the problems in the world.

People of the World, look up to the Lord Jesus Christ for your soul's salvation, repent and prepare, bear fruit and win souls!

Brethren, as we have proclaimed before on this blog that the World is rapidly moving into a conflict zone involving several nations (Matthew 24:6-8), which will ultimately culminate into World War III. We have not been given dates and times but by the Authority of the Lord's Word, He said that is what He has decreed for the World, but we must pray to escape these things (Luke 21:36). In the same spirit of anticipation, NO Christian should fail to pray for his or her country and since most countries co-operate through international bodies, we have a duty to pray for all people everywhere (1 Timothy 2:1-4; Proverbs 21:15). None of us should just wait around for the rapture and not continue with fruitful labor (Philippians 1:22), while considering the Words of the Lord..."this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come" (Matthew 24:14).

Furthermore, the Lord spoke to me (Brother Glenn) saying that many nations including Israel wish that the prophecies He declared against the (Isaiah 13:24; Jeremiah 51:1-58) nations turns out to be false, however, not a Word of the Lord will fail to accomplish His plans (Isaiah 55:11; Matthew 24:35). Brethren, I feel a deep sorrow and pain in my heart for the nations, especially for USA. How I wish and pray for that nation and other nations to escape God's wrath, the coming suffering will melt the hearts of many nations to the point of total despondency, but He will save those who hope in Him (2 Peter 2:9). I have seen they will be forced to fight a war not their own. We pray for the peace of USA and we also pray for the peace of Jerusalem (Psalm 122:6).

In addition, there has never been a time in history where there is a need for peace such as our times. Why? Some nations are armed with sophisticated weapons of mass destruction, the world's economies and communication systems are intertwined. As it is, any war disrupts the movement of goods and it affects the prices of goods and services. O' Nations, the Lord is going to disrupt you! I clearly heard the Lord saying, the months ahead will be difficult but the prayers of the saints will sustain us. 

Finally, unpleasant and unwelcoming as it is, we declare to the world that by the Spirit of the Living God that wars will increase rapidly and finally leading to World-War III until the Prince of Peace Himself appears (Daniel 9:26). We would also like to encourage the nations of the world including Israel, seek the Lord and His favor before your country lies in desolate ruins. In conclusion, fellow Christian brothers and sister, we are duty bound to pray for our colleagues, Government, neighbors, City, Country and fellow believers. Let us not grow discouraged in prayer and service to others in Jesus' name.

Blessed Regards

Brother Glenn

Be Gentle When Rebuking Others

Speaking From God’s Wisdom Does NOT Offend But Encourage

"Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love" (Ephesians 4:2 NIV).

“Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him show by good conduct that his works are done in the meekness of wisdom. But if you have bitter envy and self-seeking in your hearts, do not boast and lie against the truth. This wisdom does not descend from above but is earthly, sensual, and demonic. For where envy and self-seeking exist, confusion and every evil thing are there. But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, willing to yield, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality and without hypocrisy. Now the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace” (James 3:13-18 NKJV).

Important notice: The Lord gave us this message to write after members of our ministry and members of the body of Christ, in general, are being persecuted by their fellow 'Christian' brethren. The Lord is warning us not to wage war against each other. A true Christian employs the weapons of love, humility, and gentleness to embrace true unity in the body of believers.

The world as we know it is practicing violence, hatred, and every kind of sin the Bible warns against (Revelations 21:8). Scripturally, we learned that evil and deceit have been decreed by the Lord to continue until the end of time (Daniel 12:10; Matthew 13:30). When our Lord Jesus Christ visited the world, He brought a message of peace and reconciliation for all mankind (Luke 2:14; Colossians 1:20; Ephesians 2:16; 2 Corinthians 5:18-20). However, the Lord has given His Peace to ‘those with whom God is pleased’ and these are those who accepted Him as their Lord and who follow His teachings (Luke 2:14; John 14:27). Learning from the Holy Scriptures, the Christian message teaches us a lifestyle of being peace-loving, humble, caring, and gentleness (Ephesians 4:2). Additionally, in bringing forth the beautiful heart of the Lord, the Scriptures knowing the disobedient nature of human beings teach us to be patient with others and allow them to react without a compulsion to the will of God (2 Timothy 2:24; 2 Corinthians 9:7). In other words, when a person conforms voluntarily to the Word of God he or she simply agrees with the scriptural instruction(s) to obey and submit to the Voice of God (John 10:27).

Demeaning Others Is Demonic

Some time ago the Lord Jesus sharply rebuked a young man in our ministry who was in the habit of humiliating and talking down on others. The Lord said that even if we rebuke others we need not state it in anger and as if the other person(s) is nothing (2 Timothy 2:25; Galatians 6:1). Now, brethren, we are not writing this message as if we are sitting in judgment over others, in fact, we are being encouraged ourselves to watch our salvation and not to be a stumbling block to others (1 Corinthians 10:32; Romans 14:13-23). Furthermore, our message to others whether we rebuke, teach, preach or encourage ought to be in a meek and gentle spirit impacted by the purity of the wisdom from above (James 3:17-18).

In the same breath, the Bible asks, “Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him show it by his good life, by deeds done in the humility that comes from wisdom” (James 3:13 NIV). Thus, if our conduct and speech towards our brothers or sisters are hostile, demeaning, and driven by anger, bitterness, and hateful feelings such behavior has its roots in evil and we know who is the source of evil (James 3:14-16). Therefore, a person who operates from evil motives is driven by a spirit of evil hate, and whatever unpleasant thought or word he or she conceives he attaches it to his victim with evil intent. If we operate from ‘such “wisdom” [then it] does not come down from heaven but is earthly, unspiritual, of the devil’ (James 3:15 NIV).

Now, brethren, I am not trying to play victim or hero here. My intention is simply to share an experience that could help and benefit someone in his or her walk with the Lord. As a ministry, we are not only receiving encouraging emails and messages from brethren around the world, in fact, some people plainly display their hatred towards us albeit in a Christian tone (scriptural verses) but with the voice of the devil which is evident through the spirit of the message. 

We are going to be direct here, recently (24 July 2018) we received an email message from a former member of this ministry in fact a few such emails lately. In his discourse, the member did not hold back his thoughts, emotions, and what he thinks about us and our work in the Lord. At best, the spirit of love was absent and the voice of the Lord was silent we couldn’t hear it in that message as the ‘sulfur’ of insult and ridicule rained down on us. God forbids and may He help us love our fellow brethren and those who oppose our message. We emphasize a person has a right to disagree with a message, but when love is absent instead of correcting someone gently we do not fulfill the Lord's message of loving unconditionally (Romans 12:9-21; 13:8). Thus, if others condemn us and consider us a nuisance to life let us be comforted that the Lord Jesus Christ loves us more and He made us more than conquerors (Romans 8:37).

The Father Has Unconditional Love For The Rejected

After reading such content, we were left asking ourselves, what did we gain from this, edification or encouragement? NO! Instead, our peace and spirits were momentarily disturbed (Proverbs 15:1; 4). Thus our gain in that message was pain, hurt, and slander which caused us to long for some comfort, nothing pleasant to help us in the Lord (Hebrews 10:24). To put it blindly, we were made to feel that we are welcome to seek and serve the Lord and that we are not part of Him! O’ Lord Jesus Christ, we thank you for being a gracious and forgiving God who said, “Everyone whom my Father gives me will come to me. I will never turn away anyone who comes to me” (John 6:37 GNT). Brethren to get people saved, the Lord Exercises great patience with sympathetic love to invite sinners to Him (2 Peter 3:9; Luke 15:20). Now beloved brethren, if we are in the business of destroying the faith of others we are not gathering but scattering and being a stumbling to others (Matthew 12:30). Let us be warned, when our turn comes to appear before the Lord, He will Judge us for the souls He lost as a result of our ungodly actions (2 Corinthians 5:10).

In conclusion, with this message, we are not saying that we stand above this message but in submission to the Lord, we accept whatever scriptural correction to obtain maturity in Christ and to be useful in service to His body. In addition, there will be a follow-up message to this one during next week or the week(s) thereafter.

As always, we would like to extend an invitation to anyone who does not know the Lord Jesus Christ yet, or if you are not born again, to pray our suggested prayer on this link Prayer of Sincere Repentance by faith and follow the Lord (Matthew 4:19). You may also contact us for any questions or comments about this article or our ministry.

With Love from all of us

Brother Glenn

Encouraging Each Other

“But encourage each other daily, while it is still called today so that none of you is hardened by sin's deception” (Hebrews 3:13 HCSB).

Brethren, we would like to share a word of encouragement with you to revive your faith and confidence in the Lord (Romans 1:11). It is true, as Christians, we are not always happy people, and oftentimes we are faced with conflicting feelings and emotions, which hinder our faith and walk with the Lord. Therefore, temperaments and negative attitudes form part of our daily experiences, and these emotions may lead us to shameful conduct if we follow its dictates. However, if we fully recognize and acknowledge these emotions as a hindrance to a sound relationship with others and God we would then have an opportunity to seek His help and overcome so that we can genuinely express ourselves with the marks of a true Christian (Romans 12:9-12). Let us not lose heart brethren our faithfulness and persistence will be duly rewarded.

God Uses Encouragement To Lift Burden Of Pain  

This message is a reminder that we are living in a broken world where hardship, suffering, pain, and oppression are a reality (John 16:33). Knowing that our journey through this life would not be easy, the Lord guaranteed us His peace to serve as our consolation (John 14:27). It is this peace from the Lord that should calm the storm of our ever rampant feelings of anxiety and uncertainty. This peace should also give us security (Psalm 112:7). I can recall, often if anyone of us had suffered some attack or experienced an unpleasant situation the Lord, the Lord would always offer some comforting words and it would be like a huge pain that has been lifted which was being replaced with a pleasant feeling of happiness (Revelations 21:4). If we are in the Word, nothing should discourage us to the point of losing our faith and confidence in God, thus encouragement from the Lord, His Word or from fellow brethren is a fresh breath of the Spirit to the burden of pain and to get us refocused on our journey.

Our Confidence

In the book of Hebrews, Paul states, “So don’t throw away your confidence, which has a great reward. For you need endurance, so that after you have done God’s will, you may receive what was promised” (Hebrews 10:35-36 HCSB). This is a very serious virtue to have; we should never be without confidence in this race of faith in Christ. Some time ago, I issued a rebuke to someone who did not take it well but allowed the rebuke to weaken her faith. The Lord, in a strong message of encouragement to the person, said that she should not allow the rebuke to conquer her faith and confidence, but to emerge stronger with a humble attitude.

We have another sister whom the Lord had rebuked for being an unfaithful witness. She was discouraged for a while by this, and whenever she was running some errands she would be tempted not to witness, which led to her being unfaithful in witnessing. However, after these rebukes, she took this in prayer to the Lord to teach her, help her, and give her the boldness to share. As she continued to pray and obey the Lord by witnessing (Matthew 28:19-20; Luke 14:21), she grew in her confidence and the Lord later commended her for being a faithful witness.

Oftentimes people hide in their shame after committing mistakes, and the fear of facing themselves and the world leads them to go “underground”. After enduring a humbling rebuke from the Lord, a sister resorted to self-hatred (self-loathing), thinking that her mistake had usurped her salvation. However, in loving-kindness the Lord restored her confidence by encouraging her to receive His forgiveness and forgive herself as well, and stop hating herself. This was a timely and life-changing encouragement that lifted her from self-rejection because she’d thought that the Lord had rejected her. I personally also received some strong rebukes from the Lord which could have left me paralyzed with resentment for the Lord, but instead He taught me to be humble and have a heart full of appreciation for His loving guidance. Brethren, from my experience, I have found that people often try avoiding those who have rebuked them, and this has led many Christians into the sin of harboring hateful feelings towards their brothers.

Admittedly, in this ministry, we have made some mistakes and some brethren that we work with made mistakes too. However, the spirit of humility and showing of our love and submission to Christ has resulted in a strong bond of true Christian love and respect for one another. When we serve to please the Lord, we must never be ashamed when we earn rebukes from our brothers or sisters in Christ (Ephesians 5:10).

Lifting Up Your Broken Brother

As Christians, we are encouraged to faithfully serve God and our fellow brethren, to “… be concerned about one another in order to promote love and good works, not staying away from our worship meetings, as some habitually do, but encouraging each other, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near” (Hebrews 10:24-25 HCSB). As we mentioned in Be Passionate for Christ article, not showing up to fellowship meetings or leaving hinders others' passion and may cause love to grow cold which makes room for the sin holding grudges and hateful feelings. In messages to us, the Lord recognized the presence of some weak brethren amongst us, and He often reminded us not to look down on them but to encourage them in patience as they grow in their faith and understanding in the Lord. It is true that our good confidence in the Lord can sometimes blind us, and in our display of superior faith, we expect some weak brethren in our midst to be like us. This shows our intolerance towards our fellow man; we are expected to act maturely by patiently guiding the misguided and weak brothers and sisters (1 Thessalonians 5:14).

As we shared in our recent article on the Joy of Knowing the Lord Jesus Christ when a Christian starts losing their first love, their joy fades and the excitement which gripped them at the beginning of their conversion turns into a faithless motion, where he or she pretends that all is well, masking the reality that they have become a sinking ship. This kind of attitude renders one a spent force, defeated, and with depleted energy marking the end of their confidence in Christ.

The Courage of the Oppressed

Great men of God have often found courage in the Lord, and their faith and confidence gave hope to those around them (1 Samuel 30:6). We may recall that the life of the young boy, Joseph, who was alone in a foreign country, separated from the support of his family. However, he found the courage and a trusted friend in the God of his fathers, and his faith led to the preservation of nations (Genesis 50:20). Likewise, when Daniel was being persecuted and oppressed by the jealousies of his colleagues, he found no one to comfort him, so he turned to God. Daniel did not lose his confidence and trust in God, but his steadfast demeanor inspired not only the kings he served under but future generations as well (Daniel 6:10-27). What these men of God had in common is that they had no one but God to trust. Will our generation stop complaining and having a “want more” attitude and serve the Lord in a humble and submissive attitude?

Brother and sisters, in this day and age where Christians are increasingly experiencing persecution for their beliefs in the Lord Jesus Christ and the unchanging truth of the Word of God, we should encourage one another to faithfully keep serving the Lord and endure to the very end till Christ returns to take us Home (1 Thessalonians 4:17-18; 5:11).

To begin a relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ, please start by praying this Prayer of Sincere Repentance. For any questions or comments on this article or our ministry, please contact us.

Blessed Grace,

Brother Glenn.
