Hey there!<\/span><\/p>\n

I love this!\u00a0 I was driving to work this morning, listening to the New Birth series, and I felt the spirit preaching to me, that when a person is truly thankful for what Jesus has done, they tell it!!! \u00a0That’s how you make Jesus happy! To make Jesus truly happy, you tell what He has done for you! There’s not much we can do for Him, but to make Him happy.<\/span><\/p>\n

When we go through something and get past it, and learn what Jesus wants us to learn, we tell it! That’s the true testimony!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The body knows when one of its members is sore, or needing care. If you have a sore knee, ands it’s healed and stops hurting, you are so happy to be able to walk around! That’s the normal function, to be happy when you\u2019re not hurting, after the injury has passed!<\/span><\/p>\n

When I went through my many learning lessons, then got through them, I was never sorry I went through them. I was so thankful to have passed that time, and then put into action what I learned.<\/span><\/p>\n

I felt that Jesus was so happy to have gone through all he went through, for us. He knew it was for His own good. \u00a0Then after it passed, He was so thankful for it! \u00a0For us!!<\/span><\/p>\n

Jesus does so much for us daily, that if we really slow down and pay attention,\u00a0there’s a testimony each day. \ud83d\ude42<\/span><\/p>\n

I wouldn’t change a thing I went through this past two years!\u00a0 If I did, I would have to admit that I didn’t like learning what my Father has to say! Or that “all things working for my good” doesn’t apply to me.\u00a0 I love driving and listening to my tapes, and have the spirit teaching me. He has really done more than I was praying for!<\/span><\/p>\n

Pastor John,<\/span><\/p>\n

I heard these things on a CD of a meeting from a few years ago and thought I’d like to pass them on.<\/span><\/p>\n

From your sermon:<\/span><\/p>\n

(1) \u00a0\u2018When a person is truly delivered from something, that person has a testimony. If there’s not a testimony,\u00a0there has been no deliverance; that person has just quit doing something temporarily. \u00a0The sin is not gone; it’s just on vacation! \u00a0A real testimony is a real confession of Christ. \u00a0A real testimony is not in the words that are spoken; it is the experience with God. \u00a0When you give a real testimony, you are sharing something that has been done by God; that is a real testimony, and that is what overcomes the world.\u2019<\/span><\/p>\n

(2) \u00a0\u2018Now, the scriptures say “Confess your faults one to another, that you might be healed.” If you confess your faults but don’t want to be healed, you are just bragging about how bad you’ve been.\u2019”<\/span><\/p>\n

From Lou’s testimony:<\/span><\/p>\n

(1)\u00a0 \u2018The flesh feels like it is always right, and if you are in the flesh and I’m in the flesh, then we both feel like we are right, but we are both wrong.\u2019<\/span><\/p>\n

(2)\u00a0 \u2018When you love the things of God, it is only because you are teachable.\u2019”<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
