Testimonies of a changed heart occurs when we begin verbalizing what God has done in your life. The devil is AFTER your testimony. Once the testimony happens, he is right there ready to tell you not to share it to anyone. The reason he is after your testimony is because it can cause others to call upon the Name of the Lord and get saved or run to the Father for salvation in an area of their life. However we found out that we overcome him by the Word of our testimony in Revelation 12:10 - 11.

When we share our testimony, we overcome the enemy in our lives and begin walking in and out the call of God in our life. We all have a call and we all have a mantle that we need to wrap ourselves in daily, according to 2 Peter 1:10 and 1 Kings 19:13.

The message contained individuals being touched, canned, wrapped in their mantle and left their encounter with Jesus with the testimony of a changed heart. I encourage you to read again those that were shared on Sunday: Mark 8: 22-26 (Has he taken you by the hand and led you to a place where you never been to heal your blindness?), Luke 18:35-43 (Did you glorify God so others could see and praise Him as well?) , John 9:1-41 (Has the clay of the earth been removed from your blind spiritual eyes?), John 4:10-42 (Has your testimony changed a life then to impact others because people came to church because of it?) and Hebrews 11:5-6 (Has your testimony pleased God's like Enoch's did?).

Outstanding post RABBI Nate...
Great testimony from Sunday:
"God's thoughts and ways are still higher than mine. He knows exactly what I need and told me. Embracing His salvation through my call and mantle. Embracing His salvation through opening the layers of the Torah for myself and others. Failure is not a hinderance, there's a "well that worked, and that didn't work" to it. Keep moving and don't let the enemy steal it by his accusations."
Loved your practical application of making your calling and election sure:
"Here, anxiety wants to overtake me for "lost time". It's God who can redeem the time... but I have to take the next step and the next step. Not stop and standstill moaning…
What fresh testimony did you receive on Sunday?
Changed thinking... of how I perceive myself... How can He use me for someone else when I doubt what He's made and deposited in me? What does that do to my testimony, it sure doesn't glorify Him. 🙁
Seeing this differently and on my way to a changed heart... I can literally feel Him leading me by the hand and washing this mentality off me 😭
Thankful for the Credible Women that helped in the opening of this door on Saturday so I was ready to receive for this message ♥️
What is your call?
To embrace the salvation of God, to let it, become life.
What is your mantle?
My lid(canning)…
Whew! I should be hearing this message in my sleep! I have listened to it several times! There was so much there and so many different aspects, but I know it has to come down to this. "EMBRACE SALVATION!"
What fresh testimony did you receive on Sunday?
I didn't realize that I was timid with my testimony to people from my past before I was saved. Dah! I guess I thought I was "tarnished" in their eyes. Even though I know they know I am saved and see a difference in me and my life, I still noticed I can be a bit more reserved in their presence. Mind you, I'm seldom around those people, but nonetheless, I should never…
What fresh testimony did you receive on Sunday?
God just breathed fresh life into my heart about being passionate for what He has done in my life. Sometimes we get caught up in “what do people need” and we forget that God created us, saved us, and gave us a testimony so that people could tangibly see and hear about what they really need, God.
What is your call?
Rev. Ryan simplified it nicely in this message, to embrace the salvation He has provided me and tell of His goodness! That happens in multiple different ways, but it all comes back to a daily walk of freely receiving and freely giving what He can do. In my life, that giving…
What an amazing message Rev. Ryan! I've listened a second time but I am planning on listening again.
What fresh testimony did you receive on Sunday? God changed my heart and mind about testifying. For so long I would continually say, "It's not about you Christy"--always with the desire to grow to love people to the point that I don't think about myself. The thing is every time I would think of testifying to someone (outside of BAM) about something God did in me or for me, that thought, "It's not about you Christy" would come--so I wouldn't say anything. So I have been testifying about what God has been doing in other people's lives regularly. Every time someone gets…
