Your testimony is about what you have experienced – what you have seen and heard. A real Christian can talk about their experiences with God through Jesus Christ. We as Christians are called to a relationship of real communication with the Son of God. God comes to live inside us. Things change. God deals with every person in a different way.
The more Christians that come forward and talk about how God has intervened in their life, the more people will begin to realise that God is for real, miracles do happen, and prayer works.
This will inspire others to seek God and turn from their sins so that they too can know the peace and satisfaction that comes to a person who truly gives their life over to God.
Acts 4:33
And with great power the apostles were giving their testimony to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus, and great grace was upon them all.
Jesus instructed those who had been touched by God to share.
Testimonies are the evidence of the supernatural power of God lived out loud. Formed out of the difficult chapters in our lives, it is there that His strength is made perfect in us. Our testimony becomes a declaration of praise to our God and a portrait of our deliverance. Rev. 12:10-11 reveals that testimonies are a powerful weapon in overcoming the accuser as they proclaim the Gospel message, and bear witness to Jesus' shed blood.
As often said, the best defense is a good offense. And instead of trying to just hold our ground as Christians, we should gain ground. We should move forward. We should tell others about Christ.
When you identify yourself as a Christian that is a good way to make yourself accountable, even to nonbelievers. By saying in your workplace (without being obnoxious), "I am a Christian," by saying to members of your family or in your neighborhood or among your friends, "I am a follower of Jesus," you are putting that stake in the
ground, and they will be watching you and evaluating you.
And frankly, they will be evaluating God, too. They are will be thinking, so that is how a Christian acts. That is how a Christian treats his wife. That is how a Christian treats her husband. I get it.
That is how a Christian raises their child. That is how a Christian does thus and so. . . . They will be watching you. And nothing is worse than getting your behavior corrected by a nonbeliever, especially when they are right.
When a believer is walking in fellowship with God, he or she will want to tell others about Christ.
Everyone has a testimony, which simply is their story. You don't have to go through adversity to have a testimony. What would people say about you? You have a testimony. The question is whether it is a good one or a poor one.
If God has worked powerfully in your life, please share it so others can benefit. It will remind you of how God has worked and it will encourage others to believe in God. It may be the means by which another precious person comes to a saving knowledge of the Lord Jesus. So do it. Begin to write down your story.
Will you pray that:
• God will use testimonies of believers everywhere to help people know Jesus
• You will allow God's love to cross human boundaries
• God will help you prepare your testimony, making it simple and clear
• God will help you lead others to recognize and repent of their sins
• God will use your testimony to bring others to put their faith in the Lord
