How Has Your Walk With God Been? by nuella2(f): 2:34pm On Jan 17, 2011 |
Christianity is the earth walk of the new creation, after a man gets born again, GOD leaves him here to reconcile men to him, fulfill his purpose and win in the midst of challenges through his word. How has your walk with God been? I believe Christians in this forum have great testimonies to share on how they have triumphed in the face of challenging situations. Your story could just be what will make other Christians remain standing assured in Christ today. My walk with God has been beautiful, my parents never went to church, so as a child a wondered from church to church. Until some group of Christians shared the gospel with me. Wow! i got born again; then trouble started. My father threatened to disown me, stop paying my fees and the persecution at home was terrible, but i stood my ground and i told him i would rather drop out of school than stop going to church. Today everybody in my family is born again. God is faithful! In my early years in the university, I almost got distracted as i met a very wealthy man who before i could say a word, bought me a car. Wow! Promised to take me abroad and on and on. What a temptation, but have been taught that am a seed of Abraham and that i own the world. I KNEW i was rich already, being rich was beyond owning a car,i cld not accept the gift so i returned the car. Then another round of persecution started; friends and relatives mocked me, cos they felt i was brainwashed and thought God sent him as a blessing. Months later the man left that city without a word, cos the police was after him as a result of his illegal deals. Christ! What if i got involved with that man? Brethren, in this walk we collide with challenging situations like David and Goliath but God is always faithful. The first job i got, i was given an official car. There is no hurry in life, don’t take any short cuts, follow him step by step cos faithful is he that has called you. How has your walk with God been? 2 Likes |

sincerely,mine has not been as beautiful as yours n that of others.my father was not really a pagan but attended church only once in a year-on d day of harvest.my family compound had all d idols my g-father worshipped scattered all over.though my father never worshipped them,but he made sure we performed all d sacrifices due to them.so i'l say by religion,i was born into a xtian family but had a paganist childhood. a time came when my elder sister became b-again n i started attending crusades n xtian programmes.my repentance was like a challenge which i decided to confront.a few of my uncles were already b-again b4 myself(at a young age) n sister,but they had to soft-pedal n were virtually spiritually dormant due to persecution from my father n d entire family.right from d day i gave my life to christ,it has been from one battle to another,against d goddess of my village n other powers.It is a long story n time will not permit me to tell it all.today i thank God,my father died a xtian,my mother is b-again n d |

My walk with God cannot be summarized in just a few lines its being a lifetime of experience and i am still living it each day. But i would say that losing both parents at a tender age and seeing the way God's hand has carried us so far i give him the praise and would definitely take the journey with him if i have to do it all over again. 2 Likes |

God has been ever faithful despite my unfaithfulness. I wouldnt say i am a stunch born again per se but i try, God help me! Guess i was/is more like a moralist still yearning for that intimate connection with God to discover his purpose/calling for my life. I really wanna do much more for him! Back then in school and even out of school job hunting few yrs back tho, i stood more on the side of morals and yes God rewarded me and has been rewarding me cos i did not compromise! I just wanna do much more for him, his faithfulness brings tears to my eyes sometimes. Am not in eldorado yet but i know he is taking me somewhere, i bless your name Lord.It is good to only trust in d Lord and not in d arm of flesh |

I had to take a deep breath after reading other peoples accounts. For me, it has not been easy but God has been extremely faithful. i got born again in my secondary school and its been like a roller coaster really. having a heart to serve God and living in the world with the world. My initial university days - part one was a big challenge. Family idols trying to weigh me down. In all, i have held on strongly to Jesus who sometimes carried me because i couldn't even walk and sometimes am limping. I know for sure, God never left me. To the outsider my life is beautiful, but its always been a fight to get all Christ promised me, and did i win the battles, YES I always come out victorious with a new lesson learnt. One thing is for sure, if not for God i will not be where i am and i will not be who i am and i will not be alive. Christ has been so real to me, i could almost touch him sometimes beside me. i know He is there. I can't argue with an unbeliever because really some things are better experienced. I have experienced Christ, communed with the Holy Spirit and this is all i want to do; follow Christ all the days of my life because there is no other way to the father. 2 Likes |

Ti ba ni ki nka ire oluwa, ile a shu, ile a mo! (Interpretation: God's goodness is immeasurable) His Grace has brought me thus far. When I take a retrospective look on my life, my conclusion has always been: IT CAN ONLY BE GOD. I thank God for the gift of salvation and growing up with Godly parents and siblings, especially for my mother. She is a true mother in Isreal! 1 Like |

Uyi Iredia: Ps 23:1-4 The LORD is my shepherd ; I shall not want. 2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. 3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. 4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. KJV Just make-up your mind to finish the race my dear. It does not matter what comes against you, greater is he that is in you, always remember that. |

Christianity is the earth walk of the new creation, after a man get[b]s[/b] born again, GOD left him here to , reconcile men to him, fulfill his purpose and win in the midst of challenges through his word. How has your walk with God been? I believe Christians in this forum, Good testimony, but on a lighter side do not murder the english language. I get easily teased off by the wrong use of grammer! 2 Timothy 3:10-17 (NKJV) The Man of God and the Word of God "10 But you have carefully followed my doctrine, manner of life, purpose, faith, longsuffering, love, perseverance, 11 persecutions, afflictions, which happened to me at Antioch, at Iconium, at Lystra—what persecutions I endured. And out of them all the Lord delivered me.12 Yes, and all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will suffer persecution. 13 But evil men and impostors will grow worse and worse, deceiving and being deceived. 14 But you must continue in the things which you have learned and been assured of, knowing from whom you have learned them, 15 and that from childhood you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus. 16 All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, 17 that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work." |

God has been so faithfull despite my shortcomings. When i look at my long delay in school, my yearnings for success, I can only say that I have an awesome God!!! He's been so faithful to me. For those who from one reason or the other are still expecting something from God, dont loose hope for HE GOES BEFORE YOU ALWAYS!!! |
Re: How Has Your Walk With God Been? by scud(m): 12:56pm On Jan 18, 2011 |
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm! My walk with God has been topsy-turvy. I have fallen many times but God did not forsake me. I got born again while I was in JS 2, backslided in JS 3 but God brought me back in higher school after like 7 years. To summarize all, like Peter, though I fall I never fail following my Lord- Jesus Christ. I thank him daily for the redemption and forgiveness of my sins (they were too heavy). |

skydeexie: And why worry about the spec in your friend's eyes when you have a log in your own. Matt. 7:3. The right word there is actually "pissed" instead of "teased" and the spelling "grammar" instead of "grammer". |

uhm, mine has not been easy oh considering the kind of family i come from, i sometimes wonder why i have to go thru all this life challenges at a young age, and the spirit of God in me tells me that its because i have a bright future. endurance, patience and walking right with God this are the ways i can really scale thru. i thank God for how he led me this far and where he is taking me to for i definately know that if not for him it would have been a different story entirely. |
