From Death To Everlasting Life (How God Healed Me Spirityally & Physically)
Out of all the miracles I have ever received from God, the greatest and most precious miracle of all was the gift of eternal life, when I received Jesus Christ as my personal Lord and Savior in 1996. In 1992 I was diagnosed HIV+. After living with the disease for several years, I took a drastic and sudden turn for the worse. By 1996 I was quite literally on my death bed dying from full blown AIDS (My doctor had said that I had about 6-8 months to live). As I began to realize the seriousness of my condition, and that there was nothing that the doctors could do for me anymore. I cried out to God and the God of all grace had mercy on my soul by giving me a second chance, even though at the time I was living in a life sin.
God began to let me know that I did not have to die, there was still somebody who had the final word, one who had the power of life and death in his hand and his name was Jesus Christ. But my deliverance would not come without a price. God said I am not Burger King and you cannot continue to live life on your terms, you must come out of your sinful life and surrender you heart and life to me. This was probably one of the most difficult decisions I would ever be faced with, yet I knew that if I had been unwilling to surrender and make the changes that I would have no doubt died.
If I had died, I know that without a doubt, I would have gone straight to Hell. Not because I had AIDS, but because I was lost, I did not know Jesus Christ as my personal savior. The ironic thing is that at the time I actually though that I was saved, but in reality my heart was far from my confession, nor did my life line up with the teaching Jesus taught we should exhibit as Born again Believers. This is a deception that many many in the body of Christ are facing today and do not even realize it. It is a type of counterfeit salvation which the devil has devised from religion and tradition and is not genuine or authentic.
Jesus said be ye Holy as I am Holy. Holiness and sin are polar opposites, they do not go together. You will either choose to cling to one or the other. I latter came to realize that just outwardly confessing Jesus without an inward heart awareness of my sin and true repentance there could be no true genuine salvation.
We must understand that just attending church on Sunday does not make you a believer, just confessing that you are a Christian does not make you a believer, the word of God say that we are known by the fruit that we bare. If your life is not lining up with Gods word I urge you to take a second look at your salvation. A salvation that does not change you is not real. Those who fall prey to this are being deceived by the devil of there salvation. Jesus came that we might be changed, transfromed into the image of His son, not to continue to look and live like the world and the people in it.
Through what the devil wanted to use to destroy me, God used to bring me into the knowledge of His Son Jesus Christ. I have learned from my experiences that oftentimes the adversities and tragedies of life, help us grow and bring us into a place of greater relationship with God. I can honestly say today that if I had not gone through all the suffering for years and years with HIV/AIDS that I probably would have never gotten to the point that I was just sick and tired of living a very selfish, unrestrained, immoral and unbiblical life which was spinning out of control.
I thank and praise God for the tribulations He allowed me to go through. Paul says, and I agree whole heartedly, that it was good that he was afflicted, He said these light afflictions work for us a far more exceeding and abundant weight of Glory. How I thank Jesus for loving me. But I thank Him even more, for loving me enough not to leave me in the mess of sin and deception that I was living under. Does that mean that I am perfect, are that I have no struggles, of course not, I find myself falling short of Gods best for my life at times, but I have the assurance of knowing that if I fall, Jesus will pick me up and put me back on track where I need to be. I also know that when I go through struggles that God is in the struggle with me and He has promised never to leave me alone nor to put more on me than I can bear.
God never gave up on me, and I am convinced that He has not given up on you either. If God will save me and completely turn my life around, He will do it for you as well. God is not a respecter of persons, He loves all of us the same and it is His highest desire that we come to know Him in a personal and intimate relationship through his Son Jesus Christ. You must know that the miracle of the new birth in Christ Jesus is the greatest miracle anyone can ever hope to receive
I hope by me sharing my Miracle story it has stirred you to understand that the greatest Miracle any one can ever receive is not money, healing, or any physical thing, but it is when a person walks out of the darkness of sin, that has entangled there soul and makes a decision to walk into the marvelous light of the truth found only in Jesus Christ, this is the Miracle of Salvation. I Hope you will open your heart and ask God for the Miracle of Salvation, it is a free gift from God to all who freely ask. Your life will be changed forever!
God Bless You,
Nahum
