The Power of Testimony

Hearing the testimonies of others has always been something that helps me. Although I have witnessed the move of God in my life, there’s still so much power in hearing how He has moved in the lives of others. Knowing that I serve a limitless God who doesn’t do everything the same way drives me to seek what He has done in others‘ lives as well. God doesn’t have to prove anything to us, but that doesn't mean that He won't. He knows what we need and shows up just the way we need Him to.
By definition, a testimony is proof or evidence that someone has witnessed. There’s so many people asking for “proof” that God exists, but may be looking in the wrong places. The Bible, of course is full of testimonies, but so is the world. As always, I encourage you to have discernment when listening and reading, but one thing I will say is don’t count God out. Don’t miss the chance to be encouraged, or even warned through the testimonies of others. Just because we don’t experience things for ourselves or think they’re possible, doesn’t mean God didn’t or won’t do it. Remember, faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen, according to Hebrews 11:1.
John 19:35 NKJV And he who has seen has testified, and his testimony is true; and he knows that he is telling the truth, so that you may believe.
John 19:35 MSG The eyewitness to these things has presented an accurate report. He saw it himself and is telling the truth so that you, also, will believe.
Testimonies are something that have encouraged and taught me along the way. Everyone has one and each one is different. If you feel otherwise, I encourage you to surrender to God and watch Him do a work in your life that leaves you no choice but to share His goodness.
Psalm 66:16 NKJV Come and hear, all you who fear God, And I will declare what He has done for my soul.
Psalm 107:2 NKJV Let the redeemed of the Lord say so, Whom He has redeemed from the hand of the enemy,
Mark 5:19 NKJV However, Jesus did not permit him, but said to him, “Go home to your friends, and tell them what great things the Lord has done for you, and how He has had compassion on you.”
1 Peter 3:15 NKJV But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts, and always be ready to give a defense to everyone who asks you a reason for the hope that is in you, with meekness and fear;

God continues to confirm that there is true power in testimony. Everyone walking with Christ has a story. You know why? Because God doesn't require us to be perfect to get started. We don't have to figure everything out before we say "yes" to Him. He meets us where we are and life can change in an instant ❤️ I pray you are able to get something from each testimony above. Remember, God is very intentional so if you receive confirmation, it's not by mistake.
