God Is Greater Than the Storm: A Testimony of Faith and Endurance Good day to everyone, it is your Brother in Christ here again. I am writing to let you all know just how great God is! How Great Is God?

God is great all day, every day. We all have our own expectations of what God should do for us. We know what He is capable of—He has no limitations. Yet we often restrict how God can work in our lives, whether by ignorance or by self‑will. I know I have misplaced many blessings because of those reasons—and pride too. Perhaps pride is the root cause of those problems. That is why God requires us to humble ourselves before Him. We cannot do anything for ourselves; only God can do for us what we truly need. Anything good or great that happens in life requires thanks to be given to God in Heaven, our Father. We must not become complacent in our actions or let sin overrule us. We must not be quick to forget that what God has given, He can easily take away. I have fallen victim to that before. I had a wife and two children, but I chose the world over the vow I had made to God. He had given me what I asked for—two sons and a wife. I did not honor Him by going to church and serving. I stayed in contact with God, but I turned to the streets and my own pride to provide for my family. I ended up in jail, met the woman I am with today, and became a father to four children—my twins and my two boys. I have not remarried in the eyes of the state, but their eyes are meaningless to me. It is the Lord I care about. I want His blessing, not man’s. Genesis is clear: when you lie with a woman, you become one. My Situation In 2019, I was disabled due to a back injury at work. I went through months of physical therapy, which the surgeon said made the injury worse. I felt God telling me not to do the surgeries, but I did not listen. Fueled by greed and pain, I went forward anyway. I had two surgeries, and in the end, I am still suffering. The surgeon wanted to do a third surgery, but I felt God telling me I would never walk again if I did. After the second surgery, I woke up paralyzed from the neck down. I was petrified. So I trusted God, denied the surgery, and angered the surgeon. I went through the settlement process and filed for disability. I thought it was guaranteed, but again, I felt God saying “No.” I fought and fought, but in the end, they refused to grant disability due to lack of medical history. I explained to the board that it was my right as a human to choose my treatment. I chose Jesus Christ and prayer. I refused narcotics or man‑made chemicals. God is a healer and provider. I had spent enough time running from Him, and I was not about to walk the path of medical witchcraft. I will lay here in severe pain, with tears rolling down my face, while worshipping and praising God. Still, I was denied. During this time, I lived with my “wife” and our twins, while my other two children lived with their mother and her husband. My mother‑in‑law pretended to like everyone but spoke ill behind their backs. I kept my distance, knowing God had warned me they would one day hate me regardless of what I did. Eventually, it happened. I gave up on my disability claim and began seeking ways to provide for my wife and children while contributing to the Kingdom of Heaven and spreading the Gospel. I came across a college offering a scholarship with a free laptop. My old one had been ruined by a shorted motherboard. I prayed, applied, and was accepted. Now I am in college, with a new MacBook Air to study and write this blog.

Trials at Home A few weeks before Thanksgiving, my mother‑in‑law began attacking us—not just me, but her daughter, her grandchildren and my children. On December 6, 2025, she screamed in the children’s faces, shoved my wife, threw things at me, and locked us out illegally in the cold. We have been illegally evicted since that day. The home is too hostile for children with her behavior. I kept praying and reached out to local churches, but none responded—not even with a prayer. I have, however, been blessed to connect with Encounter Today, now Revival Nation, and Pastor Alan DiDio. Truly a blessing from God. Continuing in Faith I continue to pray and seek God, even while surrounded by negative, ungodly people who do not care for their souls. It is saddening to see them blind to what they have to lose. I try to sow seeds, but often they fall on wasted ground. Recently, I came across Outlier, a company that hires people to train AI from home. This is a blessing, as I am studying AI engineering. I signed up, was accepted, completed the prescreening, and have earned over $100 so far. I have not yet been paid, but I trust God. This income will help us and bless others by spreading the Gospel. Where Am I Going From Here? I am going wherever God takes me. I am doing whatever He wants, and I pray I do it without confusion or self‑will. What do I need from everyone? I need prayers. I need agreement in the eye of this storm—that God is greater than the storm and will be glorified through it. I also need donations—anything the Lord puts on your heart: prayers, money, messages. Please reach out. I am open to talk.

My Prayer Heavenly Father, blessed are You. You are my Rock, my solidity. I cherish Your love and grace. Thank You for keeping us safe and provided for. Though we do not know the direction You are taking us, I pray You shine light on the clear path so we do not stumble in Your presence. Remove anything from our lives that holds us back from You, Lord. I thank You for all who read this testimony. May it spread like wildfire, planting seeds and watering those already sown. Lord, I know You can do anything. I pray Your will be done, not mine. Help us surrender our will to You, Heavenly Father. Thank You for all that is good under the sun, for it comes from You. In Jesus’ Name, we thank You. Amen. #Faith #Testimony #JesusChrist #ChristianLiving #GodIsGreat #Prayer #Gospel #ChristianBlog #ReadCash #KingdomOfGod #ChristianFaith #TrustGod #ChristianCommunity #ChristianEncouragement #ChristianLife
