The Word of God has always been the truth. When I was a lost person I had no idea of this. I was raised Catholic and hadn't been to mass since I was three years old. Unfortunately, after I was born again by the Word of God at age 14, I went backwards into Catholicism again because I didn't know the difference. But 20 years later, God saw to it that I had revival in the AOL chat room. From there, my Pastor friend told me to go to a "Calvary" (Bible-believing) church, and since 2000 I have been on fire for the Lord.
I have learned much in these past 20 years. I realized one day that I didn't get saved at the age of 14 because of the 700 Club and that reprobate Pat Robertson, I was saved because I BELIEVED what the Bible said AFTER the 700 Club incident. I say Robertson is a reprobate, and he was a reprobate back in 1979 when he conned this little 14 year old girl (me) into thinking that praying a prayer gets you to Heaven. Well, he was a bunch of bullcrap then and more so now. Robertson is a Freemason, and there's a red flag right there. I had no idea of what that was, I only knew that I wanted to know Who Jesus was, and God the Holy Spirit started working on my heart at that young age. I also know for sure there were Christians somewhere praying for my soul, and for me to get saved.
My mother never spoke about politics or religion. After we moved, we never went to mass again. She said those were things we never talked about. So I never told her I wanted to get a Bible. I did buy one when she was at work, and I never told her I had it. God wanted me to have it, because He started speaking to me through it when I read it, and I am totally convinced that is how I was born again. I didn't know anything about reading the Bible, but God understood that and He guided me through it. I didn't know what a Christian church was, or a pastor, or being a bus kid or anything like that, but God used His almighty Word to get me salvation. That was the greatest thing that ever happened to me.
Fast forward to now. After being born again for 41 years, and the times being as late as they are, I can see more clearly how true God's Word always was and more so now. Everything He says comes to pass in His timing. I'm seeing it every day. So with confidence I can pray, EVEN SO, COME, LORD JESUS!
I'm so thankful that He always keeps His promises and never goes back on one of them. I'm thankful that Jesus took the nails, and paid the price for my sins in full on the cross, and I'm not going to Hell. I love the Lord so much. Thank You, Father, for Your goodness to me.
