Testimonies to the practical reality, revelations and power of Jesus Christ
The lady stood in her doorway with mixed facial expressions, but she seemed to be very open to my message as she allowed me to share the gospel of Jesus Christ with her. I could see the Lord was ministering His reality to her. As I continued to speak, those expressions were changing and it was apparent that …

The lady introduced herself as Dorothy. Perhaps in her late sixties, she was already standing at her front gate as I came along, telling me that she had heard me speaking with a neighbour two doors down, so she “came out for a chat too.” She said she was a widow and as a consequence didn’t get to …
During His ministry on earth, Jesus Christ asked His disciples as to who the people thought He was. Now, it wasn’t that He didn’t know what the people were thinking or saying about Him, but He used this to challenge the disciples with His next question, “Who do you say I am?” To all who have heard …
From the street, the home and property looked interesting.
