I learned this lesson a long time ago. But I just wanted to share with you guys now that I am living it. I know that being a preacher was a very difficult thing but I believe that God should be the center of it all. When we become a preacher or a pastor our lives and that of our family is looked upon many people especially people of our congregation. When my Father was a pastor even our lives was affected. Although I don't think I have much problem with it but there was one time when I fallen into sins. And everyone around me look with judgement eyes and whispered rumors about me behind my back. It was never easy being a Pastor's Daughter who had a boyfriend and fornicated. But After I broke up with my ex, my father asked me to repent of my sins and go confess it in front of the whole church. Of course I was an obedient child at the time and did it. I was cut off of the church for six month and then resumed again thereafter. "16Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous man has great power to prevail." James 5:16
I believe what my father asked me to do was right and I was happy to do it. My sister who doesn't understand why I did it asked me "Why do you have to do it and let everyone know what you did wronged?" I simply reply because I was wronged and needed to repent. But you know what? After my Confessions in front of everyone people older than me began to go up and confess their sins and at that time I was only 15 years old and I had mothers who are twice or more than my age came and told me their sins. Old men came and confess his deepest darkest secrets to me. People was drawn to me because of what I did. So because I chose to obey, God used my shame to bring others to repentance and that was for his Glory and Honor. I didn't know it at that time but God was beginning to do something in me in which I've never thought about before. He was preparing me for his work. I did that and you know what I found out. When you Confess your sins to many people, the devil lost his chain over you. He can never used that against you again. If you don't confess your sins the Devil will hold you accountable and begin to bugged you with your past sins and will always have a hold on you to create Fear in your heart and eventually destroyed you inside out.
I believe this was the Scripture for me at that time and so It should be for all Christians. You know if we repent of our sins God is faithful and just to forgive us our sins. I was not ashamed when I went up to that altar and when I confess because I came out with a smile on my face and a Victory over Satan's plan for me. Whatever the Devil used to try to destroy us God will turn it into good and help us to be an OVERCOMER. We are not meant to be living in fears and doubts and pain and suffering, All those things will Disappear if we believe God's Word and Do Them. God's Word has Power and it can CHANGE LIVES. I hope you are blessed by this Testimony.
If you need to repent and accept Jesus Christ in your heart please pray this Prayer:
Lord Jesus I admit that I am a sinner. I believe that you Died on the Cross for my sins. Please forgive me for my sins and have mercy on me. Come into my heart and live in me. I make you my Lord and Savior. Write my name in the book of Life and pour your Holy Spirit inside of me. From this day forward I am a Child of God. IN JESUS Name I prayed AMEN.
If you have prayed that prayer you have become a child of God so find a Bible based church and Sin no more. Pray and Read the Bible everyday. God bless you. I love you and Jesus Loves You Too.

Let Go. Let God!!!!!!
For the past couples of weeks These words "Let Go. Let God!" has been echoing in my mind none stop. I know what it means and I talk about to the people close to me and share my thoughts about it but I didn't know what God was planning to do.
He wants me to let go of what my will and my thoughts and my ways of doing things and Let Him the Almighty God take over everything. I always thought it was to surrender our Will to God and let his will be done in our lives. So I wrote a Sermon about it. THE STORY that I was going to use was From Mark 14 when Jesus went to Getsemene to Pray and He was weeping so hard that Drips of blood falls from his eyes. He asked God if God could take the cup of suffering from him but if it's God will from him to go through it then so be it. While Jesus was praying this he knew what was going to happen to him and he knew when and where he was going to be Arrested and he knew how and what pain he will have to suffer and he knew he was going to die for everyone. But he still went and Let God's Will be done. He Gave Himself to God even though he is God to die for all Mankind. Now that's Letting God do his will. So I was thinking that maybe that's what our lives are suppose to be. But Last Sunday, when I woke up in the Morning getting ready for church, not having enough sleep because of various things that happens. We went to church and as we were singing and praising God this one Song in our language about seeing Heaven and meeting God there, just struck me. And as one of our church member read the bible verse that was on the music sheet, The Holy Spirit began to Fall upon me and filled me up. My head was pumping like electricity shooting through my body up to my head. A still small voice speaks inside my head "Sing it again" it said. As we were finished singing it Ami Kelly, one of our member share that the night before she had a dream about crossing the river to get to the other side but she couldn't because there was no bridge. She saw a cripple man and someone told her to help that person then she could cross the river. So she and her husband went and help the crippled and then a path on the river appeared for them to cross it. THEN when she reach the other side she saw my family there too. And then someone show her a beautiful Gold Mansion shining bright and filled with crystal and someone said "That's Ami Zamyre's House." Ami Zamyre is what people call me. To translate it in English would be "The Mother of Zamyre". And as they enter the city Someone show them that they were going to live in that beautiful house neighborhood. But they can't enter yet and Ama Mer and Ae Veri was welcoming them into a house and gave them a room to stay in for a while. While she was saying all that I was being filled with the Spirit and yes I told everyone to sing that Song over again. And God was filling that place up even if there were only a few of us there. God was in the mist of us. As we keep singing I was praying and speaking in tongues and the rest keep on singing over me. Then I saw a visions of angels coming down from heaven to come and worship with us. Then I saw two angels around Ami Kelly and one was praying over her and the other was catching her when she fall. And then the Lord said "Go Pray for her. I want to Fill her with the Holy Spirit." So I did just that and she was filled with the holy spirit wobbling couldn't stand up right. And I keep praying and telling her to "Let Go. And Let God take over." Finally she couldn't stand anymore and I pray over her head and she falls and I catch her and lay her on the floor. God's Spirit was with her and I thank God for everything. We were praising God like never before and then I also just preach a little bit on Proverbs 3:5,6 "Trust in the Lord with all thine Heart and lean not unto thy own understanding, in all thy ways acknowledge him and he shall direct thy path."
This Scripture just came to pass that day and everyday I live. When you trust and obey God, he will show up and direct your ways. I didn't plan for all that to happens. I didn't even preach my sermon like I had plan cause God took over. I trusted in God and obeyed him and that's what happens. I thank God for always being there and never letting me go even when I fall so short of his glory, he never gave up on me and still uses me to do great and mighty things for his kingdom. God has shown me a lot of visions and many things to come cause I am now operating in the Spirit. The Gifts of the Holy Spirit God gave me is manifesting itself now more than before. I hope that you guys are encouraged by my testimony and build up your faith in Jesus Christ. May you guys learn to "Let Go of yourself and Let God take over your Lives." Because only then can you see Miracles and great Power of God and see HIS WORDS Manifest itself in your lives. God Bless You all and I love you and Jesus Loves YOU....
