I have known Brother Remy for years. Intelligent, amiable and kind to a fault, he still had things go so bad he almost gave up on everything but Jesus intervened. Today, he has the testimony of the Master of the Universe, who saved his marriage, restored fertility and his career in tow. Check out his awesome testimony from Thailand where he now works for the Lord . LARRY

Praise the Lord! I am 45, male, Christian, married with 3 lovely children (including the twins, Daniel and Deborah). By the special grace of God, I wish to share this testimony His glory and personally testify that truly Jesus still works for those who believe.
I was born into a Christian home and remained so for decades without a personal encounter with the Lord until October 2003 when I voluntarily and willingly surrendered my life to the Saviour Jesus Christ and became a born again Christian. The Angel of my conversion came in the person of my very good brother, friend and counsellor, Pastor Larry, our blessed guide in this blog. By October 2003, my beautiful wife, Juliana and I had agreed that in view of our very desperate and dire situation that December 2003 was going to be our 'Goodbye ' season to depart from the city of Lagos for good and go back to our remote village nearly 1000 km away. Reason? Nothing worked again! No job! No finances! No Helper! Everything had only one explanation: hopeless!
But Proverbs 11:14 has some great things to say to people in similar situation as I was then. Also, I have been greatly encouraged by 1 Cor. 10:13; Is. 55:6-13; and Ps.119:67 and 71 to mention very few scriptureforpeople in my former level!
And so to Pastor Larry I went and narrated my ordeal and decision. He solemnly encouraged me and advised me to "seriously consider surrendering my life totally to Master Jesus because He still works". that to my mind was preposterous as I was borne a Christian. however, after very deep reflections and prayer and after recollecting the miraculous work of our Lord Jesus Christ in the life of Pastor Larry's wife, Sis. Tina, I wept for the light I saw in the dark tunnel of my life then. I took the decision and became a born-again. I committed totally and since then have never looked back again. Since then it's been breakthrough and testimony galore for me and my family. Let me recall a few:
SPECIFIC TESTIMONY:
Today I am thanking God that that singular decision to give my life back to its owner, Lord Jesus Christ has transformed my life from negative into positive. Then my life was hopeless but now my life is full of fulfillment, hope and expectation of the best. As I write I am a foreign assignment fulfilling a Christian missionary assignment in Thailand and its neighbouring South East Asian countries. A pastor colleague said my testimony is best understood as " From Tired to Thailand! " But I say it is a case of "From Nothing to Abundance!"
To the glory of God, I am a Christian Missionary ! In fact many know me as a Pastor ! My young family is still living in the city of Lagos and Christ expense.
I also recall that my twins came in November 2007, nearly six years after their elder sister, our first. At the time I gave my life to Christ, nothing seemed to be working in all our efforts to have more children. But having learnt to pray I saw the power of God in praying non-stop, with big faith without fainting. My wife and I asked for a set of twins to compensate for the gap and imagine our joy when we received our heart desire! We, that were once desperately needing encouragement, now encourage people, teaching them to run to Jesus for solution to all their needs and problems. No matter what.Awesome God.
I thank God that even though I was once programmed for defeat, failure, disgrace, shame and ultimately death, His power today has saved me. And now rather than being a victim of powers of darkness, I am in the vanguard that use the word of God, the Blood of Jesus and open confession of Lord Jesus Christ (Testimonies) to victoriously fight against the enemy and accuser of the brethren.
May the Holy name of the Lord remain blessed forever. Praise the Lord!
