Testimony By Théophile Amougou Delivered from the occult practices By Jesus Christ 1. the first years of my life I am African, specifically Cameroonians, born May 30, 1969 in southern Cameroon, Equatorial forest, in a town called Sangmelima, two hours by car from Yaoundé, capital administrative of Cameroon. Sangmélima is the boundary between the South of Cameroon, Gabon and Equatorial Guinea. My parents were from the ethnic group of the Betis. I was born in a modest family, my father was nursing, my mother housewife. I was the sixth child of a family, who later went to count seven. My parents were very observant Catholics, and had responsibilities in the local church. My birth was unusual; my mother lived a lively tension with his in-laws. This lead it to be repudiated by the in-laws, who accused her of adulterine pregnancy. In Africa the repudiation of a woman for reasons of adultery remains a great humiliation for the married woman and her family. These accusations had no serious basis, and the character of my mother was proven in my birth because I looked perfectly like my father. According to the tradition of ethnicity Beti in Cameroon where I am from, I was to receive the name of a man whose I will now be the namesake. The little brother of my father, Agrawal Théophile, teacher Director of primary school in Yaounde, had this honour to give his name to his nephew. I am convinced that, if the consent of my mom had been sought, it would disagreed for many reasons of family at this precise time. The events that marked my life eventually will confirm the reluctance of my mother notice screws in-laws. I was less than 5 years old when we left the city of Sangmélima to go to Yaounde, capital of Cameroon, following an administrative allocation of my father who was nursing. According to "the ritual of the homonymous", the child should look like in several areas to one whose name it bears. In general, he is a man for whom there's admiration. Thus My uncle brought me affection and guidance, to which were added many sessions of the occult so that I had not even reached my eighth year. I remember what it is had two and sometimes three persons present who lit candles, which drew some figures on the sand, which paid liquids, which were of scarification on my body, who were the impositions of hands on me, etc. These occult sessions were designed not only to bring me protection, but also to preserve my wisdom and my intelligence; My uncle wanted me to be his image, as required by our tradition. I still keeps memories and the authentic testimonies of séances, of many scarifications that I wear on my body, received in pain. Scarification in themselves appeared to be simple rites. However spiritually, they had a powerful impact with the darkness and were blood contribution that Satan demanded of us. In rare cases, a domestic animal should be slaughtered according to a demonic ritual. Most often, human blood was required. Indeed, many covenants in the occult world are sealed by blood through the above practices. Occult sessions cost considerable sums of money to my uncle. Initiations received had to be kept secret, golden rule for these merchants of power. We had the certainty, like many people, that we were safe from any suspicion. These sessions, supposed to be for us blessings and other protections were in reality of the meetings of demonic possessions, for the sorcerer's apprentice that we were without knowing. While I was about 4 years old, my mother being absent, I was a day visiting at an aunt in Yaoundé. This aunt, for washing, had purchased water bleach it had poured into an empty bottle of the breweries in Cameroon. Believing that it was Top Champagne, I took the bottle and I avalai a 1 strong dose of bleach. All the conditions were in place for my death. At this time, as a result of a dispute between my parents, my mother was part of the home to reside temporarily in the maternal family. When she learned what had happened to me, she returned hastily to the House. Having found the marital home, she was able to watch over me during this long period of hospitalization that lasted several months, at the central hospital of Yaoundé. After several months, the healing was miraculous, beyond all hope of the stunned medical body. Around the same time, another dangerous event occurred after my total healing of intoxication. I introduce a pair of scissors into an electric outlet the House. The electric shock of the current was very strong, and I had saved life through a a cousin who had the reflex to stop power to the electric meter. During the funeral ceremonies, the family had to respect the traditions and customs of the ancestors. In particular, need to take a bath of purification, either by immersion in a river, or by spraying a mixture of various potions to complex compositions. I remember that around the age of 15 years, as a result of such bath, I should receive, like many other members of the family, a fabric attached to the hand. This stuff was a link with the dead. I was a follower and a defender of these rites demonic presented in the form of "traditions" to the general public. In fact, it is during these rites that insiders notables acquire a mystical power their to enslave many ignorant people. 2. the beginnings of schooling I will now talk to you a little of what happened during my schooling. For primary school classes, my parents had enrolled me in a primary school of a Mission Catholique in Yaoundé. I found that the school was a new and particular, universe and despite my modest origins and my young age, I did not complex in the middle of This multitude ethnic and social backgrounds, various. My father was a reserved, respected by all because of its qualities. My mother was very open and wise according to African traditions. Their competition influenced my education and my behavior. I got an education based on the principles of morality. In my childhood I was so talkative that at home I received the nickname of "45 rpm" (musical disk of the time). My parents, in the light of my oratorical abilities, wanted for me a journalistic career. My schooling in secondary happened initially in a College private of the Catholic Mission at Makak (45 minutes by train from Yaoundé, direction South-West). Adam, I was internal, my parents who preferred this formula, thinking that difficulties of the internship would provide me the necessary maturity. If my parents have placed me at Makak, it was not only in accordance with their religious beliefs, but also for the quality of education and education in Catholic institutions. Many politicians, or others who have important responsibilities in Cameroon have made a course in such schools. Then I went to high school public Yaoundé, then private College Samba, based by a person attached to the moral and religious values. My academic training, either in primary or the College of Makak, was footprint of religious colouring of my parents. I've been choirboy, and an active member in various religious activities, all this despite my occult activities remained secret. All this curriculum meet my parents of contentment since according to the appearances, I blithely followed their steps; It was the spiritual inheritance according to the man, to which my parents were attached. Moreover, my parents aspired that I become priest Catholic specialized in communication, whether the press, radio, etc. During high school, I knew a cooling in the activities religious, and found a great interest in the so-called worldly and social passions. It is as you could notice my presence within many steering committees of associations. At that time, I was general Secretary of the association inter-club Unesco, I me occupai also of journeys within Cameroon associations, etc.Despite these school occupations, my studies did not pâtirent in. Thus, my studies and other excursions trips were funded voluntarily by my parents. 3. the confrontation with Solange In second class, while I was at public school of Yaounde, I was confronted with a classmate whose behavior was incomprehensible to me. It was called Solange. It shone by his calm, his sweetness, 2 his humility, his availability... This If different behaviour of others remained a mystery to me. At the college and high school, frequent and varied sexual experiences were convenience. So even the professors encouraged sexual experiences between boyfriends and girlfriends in this area, citing the need to not leave too long his body without exercise. I had no particular problem to have one fleeting association with the other girls in the class, even more than most fell easily under the spell of my occult powers. Some, who had links with me, have had serious troubles later, and one of them, having a difficulties of marriage, went to consult a marabout. This marabou gave him the description a character who has a strong influence shadows on his life. A few years later, I had knowledge of the description made by the marabou, and I fully recognized in This description. I tried several times to own my comrade Solange, but I always suffered a humiliating failure for me. Solange got married during this year where we were classroom of a second. Although she was fairly young, his parents had arranged things for the marriage take place before husband parte, because he had to study in Europe. Gold, I realised that I was the only classmate to not be invited! I was very frustrated and a feeling overwhelmed me: that being faced with a mysterious, inexplicable, force and more a force that did not accept to comply with my occult powers. It tormented me Solange say everyone that one must keep his pure body until marriage for her husband. It was an inconceivable concept for me. Unable to accept also resounding failure, I changed strategy, repeatedly inspired by Satan. Sometimes it was an intense hatred without basis caused by pride of the life. Worse still, after failures in spiritual warfare, I decided to get involved in the physical combat, and wanted to thrash shots to make him evil, but I could never realizing it, because at the last moment, it is as if a force prevented me from achieving these disastrous projects. It was then that great fear wrapped my whole being and aroused several questions in me, because I had the belief that they have a large influence on any human being. At that time, I was convinced that my religious denomination (the Catholic Church) was synonymous with an assurance of eternal salvation. But Solange prophesied by saying that one day, God would lead me to salvation in Jesus Christ. She also prophesied by saying that after my conversion to Jesus, God would launch me a call to work in the Lord's work. Having acquired powers in the occult, I couldn't penetrate the mystery of the life of this comrade. On the other hand, the message of the Gospel of Jesus Christ power It announced clearly was a real power, breaking all my pride. Not knowing the truth obscured by all forms of demonic possessions acquired in ignorance of the truth, what I had to do was to hide behind the religion of my parents (Catholicism) and to further harden my heart to the truth by a stubbornness in defending my name with the last energy baseless. I rarely spoke of the Lord Jesus Christ and his work in my life, however I tried to defend my community and especially the religion in which I found myself. This religion was a real camouflage. I was fighting and persécutais my comrade, scorned and transformais the word of God in mockery. I have lived this experience not only with my classmate Solange, but on other occasions with other Christians truly born again, in a different but similar way. Many people were victims, more or less serious degrees of my occult practices, in the family, in my entourage, in my church. No one could imagine this sad aspect of my character. Yet everywhere I was loved, wearing the clothes of lamb, while in reality, I was abducting Wolf. Those who, as my colleague, Solange, announced me the Gospel, loved me as that creature of God, but hated sin and Darkover spiritual life who me. On the other hand, the Catholic religious institution that I frequented focused not on the assurance of my salvation, but services that I went to the community with the approval of all. Many responsibilities in religion and my zeal were that a mask to hide my true identity of follower of Satan. 4. contact with the diviner of Mbadjock Reached the age of about 20 years, I was at the private College Samba, and I passed the examination probationary closing of the first class. It was a great surprise for all of noticing that I had not passed this examination. It was an inexplicable, since fail the average of my notes were 3 very correct throughout the year. This provoked a obvious concerns, both teachers at my own parents. Indeed, my uncle arranged, before any review in my education, for having contacts with the occult world in order to ensure my success. I remember a times where I had received at the hands of lay people a particular pen to write my composition the day of the examination, as well as very precise instructions on the behaviour that I had to have the day of the exam, as do not greet such person, etc. It is while another uncle, different from my namesake paternal uncle, holder of several goods, advised my MOM to consult a soothsayer to ensure my academic and professional success. This Uncle claimed that, in view of my academic failure, it was obvious that an evil spell had been cast on me, and that only a soothsayer could bring the solution to my problems. If for my mother it was new experiments, it was not the case for me because of my knowledge with the world occult since my young age. knowledge that I kept secret, keeping me to entrust what although this is my mother. My mother, it should be noted here, did not really agree to such consultations, However she eventually give in to pressure from some supporters of the family members blinded by these occult rites. Then began the long secret trip, my mother and I, looking for solutions to My difficulties through mediums, diviners, that did us make the kilometres in Savannah (en particular between Ngaoundere and Yaoundé) looking for the 'truth'. I had about twenty years at the time. We have sought to consult several people but it is with one that we had relations. This devin officiated at Bhadra, near Mbadjock, city of society Sugar of Cameroon) this agent of Satan was surprised to know that we had come so many walk to find it in a corner of Bush also declined to take advantage of its services. He asked how we had his name and address, and it has been impressed to see his power to do that, and he was also impressed to see to what point we were determined to receive its services, without taking into account difficulties of the approach to meet him. Although we promise the issuance, it fills me with even more wicked spirits. It also gave me objects hidden sensible beings kept secrets: barks, mystical potions, etc. It was a new stage in the progression in the world of darkness. The various contacts with evil spirits since my childhood were only a preparation for dramatic events that I was going to live more within the spiritualism.Satan knew God had begun to prove in my life, and he wanted to retrieve this revelation for his own glory. He used this strategy with an extreme attention to detail and an incredible cunning. 5 abate of Senegal and the guru I'll tell you about another character. ABAS was a wealthy trader Senegalese Islamic religious denomination who owned several grocery stores in Yaoundé. Since several years, I was a regular customer, and we became friends. He made his fortune in the Cameroon, although his apparent life train was quite modest, and it gave me a lot gift. Through him, I had to go through one of the most painful experiences of my life. He proposed me a guru Senegalese resident services in Cameroon, which belonged to a powerful Brotherhood of an Eastern religion based in Senegal. The first reaction I've had about the proposal of Abdou was to remind him of my beliefs Catholics, to which I attached my salvation! Abdou told me simply that the service offered by the guru did not take account of religious confession. At the time, I was extremely attracted to the 'success' of some people in my entourage and the world in general. However, I knew that most of those who had managed, had been in contact with the occult world. Sometimes, they confessed in the media before thousands of listeners and blind viewers. I understand that Abdou served as me sponsor for introducing me to this guru, as the effects required by the Guru had to be acquired by my friend. Guru consultations cost of sums of money, not to mention a long list of products that would be required: all high-end. I still have the memories of some: of gold powder that I had recovered from a jeweler West African in Yaoundé, rare perfumes, etc. The appointment in Yaoundé between guru and me was negotiated by Abdou. The guru was aged about 40 years which I discovered a few years after my initiation the true identity of agent of Satan. There was no official activity, everything was unofficial, and should be submitted by a sponsor. The father of the guru was a great medium that was around the world, universal spiritual leader of a powerful Brotherhood of an Eastern religion based in Senegal. 4 I met other people who were in relation to the guru, they were older than me, and proclaimed all that they were withdrawing very successful and wealth by their contact with the guru. I was the youngest of the followers of the guru, and he saw me someone young who had a bright future ensured before him in witchcraft. The guru gave me a potion of gold to the initiatory baptism for seven days. I had to come every day at his home for seven days, in the greatest secrecy, for take a bath in a mixture of water and potion. I was also getting some splashes of various lotions. Even my godfather Abdou was not to be aware of the meetings initiation.After that guru gave me objects that I had to keep away from all look so that person wonder about the origin and usefulness of these objects. These objects were nothing more than talismans. Some followers of the guru could receive these objects by means of an address found in newspapers or magazines. Other people could receive the talismans by mystical channels, by by supernatural means. These other followers have made me understand that it was a privilege to receive directly from the hand of the guru himself talismans. Then I received from the guru of the instructions which the firmness made in me a great fear! So I now had to practise the religion of my parents with faith (Catholic religion). Celle-ci became a real camouflage of my practices of witchcraft, Since it was in this religion no power to disturb my beliefs demonic. Many clergymen have fallen under the seduction of the spirits who me haunted. They believed that my conduct was exemplary while nobody knew that I was. On the other hand, I didn't have the right to open the talismans that I owned. I had been defendant I oversight to these objects, if I'll be immediately deprived of many benefits, and I'll be also exposed to dangers of death. I have to admit that I me responded in this way with doubts in my heart, but they cleared in function personnesavec which I found myself. The powers who operated me allowed to be at the top in all I could undertake. In particular, I could seduce women who received spirits bad guys during sexual acts. I have known friends who died some time After our relations. I could snatch the chances of success to men that I could control spiritually and demonic way. My life was now regulated by the guru that I became the slave, the prisoner by means of evil objects to which I was a permanent idolatry worship. In fact, with these talismans, I lived in a State of permanent stress, much more than before my engagement with the guru. I had a new life style, bathed of hypocrisy. I got nasty and full of suspicion in all respects. I realized that people under Satanic alliance know torment day and night. These people categorically refuse to listen to any word of God who gives life. When these people have a business manager position, employees regularly undergo treatments humiliating. Sometimes employees do not receive their wages even though the company conducts of big profits. To get an any service from them, the business leader takes the place of God in the life of the employees. Ultimately they love the fleeting glory of this world, and immersed in lust. The guru was never telling me about the devil, but he often spoke of God (I understood later that this was not Almighty God). Guru uttered a number of prophecies, which some is accomplished, one that remained the more certain was the prophecy that announced my departure from Cameroon. It forbids me to write to him, except for the fulfilment of the prophecy of the return to the Cameroon. I was very impressed and proud to know that I was going to leave for abroad, especially more that all those seeking his services had obtained complete satisfaction in this which concerns the temporal elements! However, many of us, disciples of the guru, realise that honors, protection and wealth, were chains of captivity that tightened on us. Looking for well-being, the satisfaction of my needs, I found myself at the service of a sad character, whose only interest was my spiritual and physical death. In my blindness, to escape the deep problems of lack of inner peace, I am delivered voluptuousness and the pleasures of this world. The spiritual damage became evident in my life, because in me I had no peace, despite the fact that the guru of the sect reassured me by telling me that my material prosperity would bring me satisfaction. All success and any promotion is obtained by binding acts. He was asked some of us to have sex (and sometimes homosexual) relations incestueuses with close relatives: his own children, nieces, cousins, rape of minors, etc. 5 6 Morocco - a promising debut After my failure at school around the age of 20, I stopped studying classics and followed training with a friend who was a son of the owner of the Hotel of progress to Yaounde, called Adi Leon. This friend much practiced occultism, and in particular numerology. He gave advice and predictions from the numbers. His father had many mystical powers, and many curses were attached to this family. Adi Leon's brother committed suicide. About Adi Leon himself, he is dead dramatically in a vehicle accident. When I was 23 years old, my parents felt the need to try an experiment of training abroad. And in the month of August 1992, I left Cameroon for the Morocco. At that time, I believed the prophecies of guru and I was delighted to imagine a future promising future in pink. Before my departure from Cameroon, the guru told me that I will have to write to him as soon as everything what he predicted would be accomplished, so that it can strengthen my power. Having left Cameroon at the expense of the family, I had a faith firm in the talismans that I wore and I had firm assurance of all obtain. Thus, once in the Morocco, I obtained a scholarship of the Moroccan International (AMCI) Cooperation Agency with the support of the Embassy of Cameroon in the Morocco. Normally, I had little chances that the file is supported by the Embassy of Cameroon in Morocco, because the Ambassador was of North Cameroon, and the diplomat to consider my application at the Embassy was a Bamileke, reluctant to help the Beti I was. The facility with which my folder has received the approval of all encouraged me because it was nice and flattering to get such success with as much ease against all rational expectations. Once in the Morocco, I continued to attend the Catholic Church to which adhered my parents, especially my demonic power was threatened at any time. I occupai many high responsibilities in an international religious association grouping of students who are nationals of several countries. I was even delegate at the Synod of the Church in the Morocco. The Synod was this gathering of people questioning the fate of this church. Although follower of the occult powers I was able to enter the Catholic Church for several years without being worried. If in the eyes of men, I was beyond reproach, God was perfectly to the aware of my destructive activities and the ravages that I chatted in the society and the people of God, and of depraved sexual relations. I completed my studies at the Morocco in 1995. I therefore was 26 years old when I became a diploma in administration and in management of enterprises. In Morocco, I had several friends among the students from Central African Republic, Congo, Ivory Coast, Burkina Faso. These students were mostly sons and daughters of high leaders of sub-Saharan Africa. The vast majority of these students received a initiations in spiritualism from a young age. Many opportunities were opened for me in the Morocco. Several contacts with wealthy Arabs and Western were taken, which continued to be consistent with the predictions of the guru. Through an English friend, I was put in contact with a native Arab industrialist from a country in the Persian Gulf, co-owner of a chain with a dozen luxurious hotels in the world. I spent two months with this industrial in the Morocco. The experience was new for me, and me opened new horizons, but resulted in no tangible action. 7 Ahmed the Moroccan and major projects The second contact will be more successful because this friend Moroccan, Ahmed, with whom I was going to work was the owner of large farms in the Souss region in the Morocco. Complicity with my boss Ahmed will be deep. An apartment was comfortable available to me, a princely service in all respects. This addition will be sad moments horror, of many black during which masses I had intercoursesex with several women whose most was agents of Satan powerfully used in prostitution; all were incredible and spirit-filled beauty of seduction, I fell under the spell and received many demonic possessions additional. Moreover the residence where I was staying was haunted. Several people of the entourage of Ahmed were coming regularly to mediums. But seduced by such women, most have fallen under the influence of powers of darkness, causing spiritual and physical disorders graves: homes troubled incurable diseases, losses of employment 6 without explanation...Others died without having experienced the root causes of their deaths, it was assignee Sheol. During these abominations, I received the praise of quelquestemoins. The experience of working with Ahmed was very successful for me: many decisions taken by this pattern were under my influence. His religious practice of Islam do could protect it from demonic rule. My friend Ahmed was also a great follower of Eastern occult practices. Ahmed had a great love for money, leshonneurs, glory and it is in this spirit that we were United. Ahmed sought my cooperation for the establishment of a mining consortium in the Cameroon with the support of several Arab businessmen. The purpose of this structure industrial was the exploitation of precious stones and gold of the Cameroonian basement in the framework of a Morocco-Cameroon project. I already saw millions of dollars at my fingertips in perspective. To do this, contacts were made at the level of the Morocco Cameroon. We were planning to meet with the highest authorities in Cameroon. If, at of the visible world, one would have thought that this mining consortium was a bargain for the creation of many desktops offered Cameroonians to unemployment, another reality is that as a result of activities in the occult world, many people should die in dramatic incidents planned by the devil as a sacrifice. I knew, but was not affected, because I had completely switched to a spirit of murderer, to ensure a financial eldorado. At that time, I had several requests for opportunities to make a investment in Cameroon, by exploiting the niche between Cameroon and the countries of Maghreb. Everything was for the better according to men, but I lived and sleepless nights. tormented by the grip of the demons. It is in this period that a Moroccan bourgeois family, owner of a large farm of Ouleid-Teima, small town in the South of Morocco between Agadir and Tarodant (Berber City), decided to make a business trip in Cameroon. A residence permit was issued accordingly by the Ministry of the Interior of Cameroon for a stay of two months for these business partners. I had to go with them to Cameroon for this trip that would make me get into "the club of the new rich Cameroon" as had been announced and prophesied by theguru Senegalese. At the time where we had to make the practical arrangements travel to Cameroon, the Lord God Almighty who deployed his pourarreter device this project. 8 Alfred the Ivorian - Born again Indeed, a few months after obtaining my diploma of end of studies to the Morocco, I had decided to go visit a friend fellow Cameroonians, the name of Jean-Paul Odun Zang, who was at the end of her studies of veterinary medicine. A few moment more later, a young man would make his entrance in the apartment where we talked. It to be called Alfred. He shook my hand with a greeting full of compassion and I had printing through this simple contact he knew me very well, but it was nothing. Alfred, native of the Ivory Coast, ran a clandestine team of evangelization. It worked with the works and Baptist in Côte d'Ivoire. He lived in Rabat, and was missionary Ivorian to the Morocco with mission to announce the good news of Jesus and set the captives free. However, I was a miserable captive. During the sharing between Alfred and my friend Cameroonian, I felt a discomfort in me. This unease came the message that Alfred delivered with great filled with authority a belief that exceeded my mind. His message was talking about the wages of sin, which is the death and the free gift of God is eternal life. In his presentation, he touched many aspects of my sinfulness. He insisted on the judgment of God for the ungodly. This message was addressed to me directly. However I was left puzzled about the origin of a such authority who knew me and described accurately who I truly was. Back in my room, to reassure myself, I checked my device occult (talisman) was in place. When I met the missionary Alfred for a second times, I realized that I was naked, without that someone not tell me. The mask of lie that veiled my old nature was torn. I was convinced through the received message that the missionary was really a Messenger of God. At the end of the exhortation, the missionary encouraged me to give my life to Jesus Christ, but I hardened My heart. I posed him a problem in which I presented the situation from a friend who had 7 deeply steeped in the occult, and who was a victim. He said as soon as he wanted to meet this person. I replied that this was not possible. Indeed, this friend, it was me, the wretched sorcerer. In fact, I wanted to receive salvation while my honors, my glory and my dignity. Despite the hardness of my heart, the missionary was full of compassion, and explained to me that it was not possible to maintain my life passed, and told me I had to surrender my life completely to Jesus Christ. He prayed for me so that the Lord helps me understand the benefits of salvation. After the prayer of Alfred, we parted, and I have more reviewed this Ivory Coast missionary to date.Shortly after, I experienced the first attempts of retaliation by Satan. I felt a deep desolation. Satan was trying to convince me that three possibilities only were before me: -I could apologize to Satan for agreeing to talk with Alfred and listened to the preaching of the Gospel -I could fall into madness, because I had not honoured the contracted Covenant with my guru -I could kill myself For me, it was not question to repent to have met Alfred. This man had an inexplicable power: how was he able to describe my life while he does me not know? I was greatly afraid of reprisals by the followers of the devil. I was quickly an insurance with my banker and wrote to the testamentary part of the rightsholders: a friend Dutch priest and my big brother in Cameroon. I was a dead man. These torment lasted several months. I didn't even go to church Catholic because of the hypocrisy that reigned, homosexuality, pedophilia, etc. The tensions have become so strong inside my being I took the resolution to end up with These torments giving me death. I decided to kill myself. I then made a strange dream where I was attending my own funeral. There were many priests and bishops, and there was a speech that was a flood of praise for my honourable life. Then I saw come out of the coffin, and everyone fled in current. I then woke up suddenly, and I felt that I had to live not a dream, but a reality. I thought and I told myself that if it found me dead in Morocco, my family in the Cameroon would think in a murder. Many people would be interviewed on the origin of this heinous act. I decided to abandon the idea of give me death. I usually résidai in a luxurious and haunted residence, in Ouleid-Tema, near Agadir. I left the region of Agadir to go spend a few days in Rabat, in the framework of an international sports meeting, and I was hosted by a friend named Cameroonians Mbala. Since we met with Alfred, the word of God became so powerful only the fear of the Lord came upon me. While the death haunted me, I frémissais emotions, tears in the eyes, convinced of my iniquities, I decided to repent. All alone in my room, in a Muslim Arab country, I found myself praying These terms: If the God of this missionary Ivorian is the true God I will accept at this time Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior, and if it delivers me from this anguish which invades me night and day, I will give around the world of what he has done for me. Then, I confessais my iniquity and I voluntarily accepted Jesus Christ as my Lord and personal Savior. Instantly, I received a great peace and a large joy, it was an outpouring of the Holy Spirit of God. I remember very well this episode of my life. The room was at the Cité Youssoufia Mabella, block 55, apartment 11. In my room, the Lord told me to throw talismans that I wore on me. I dépouillai me of my talismans and I threw them in the toilet. As a result of this wonderful experience, I understood that I needed a licensing process, which would lead me to enter fully into the new birth and the assurance of salvation, to arrive at the knowledge of the truth. Before my encounter with Jesus of Nazareth, I had several times tried to get my issue by "reading of the litany of the saints", the use of the so-called blessed objects: "crucifix, rosaries", finally"a devotional cult in a Virgin". I was hoping to get satisfaction behind These practices. What was my desolation to see my situation without change. I due quickly abandon this approach. In truth, I had used this approach before purely evil grounds my new birth. I understand unequivocally that only Jesus of Nazareth was the power to provide a full and effective delivery to my life. God was just beginning the work of deliverance in my life in contact with the Gospel. Although I was ignorant on the procedure, the father took control of my life, I gave 8 up any involvement in the occult. Satan used then all means of diabolical pressure to show me that in outside of my practices of occultism and spiritualism, no life expectancy was possible for me. Therefore, these thoughts began to doubt that I had started to experience the power of God. 9 Karthik the Chad - The path to sanctification In October 1995 (I was 26 years old), the Lord has permitted so I can get in touch with Kodjimadji Ningaloun, a child of God missionary in Morocco, originally from Chad,. that so-called friendly Karthik. At the time, I was a member of the Committee for meetings of young Catholics of Morocco, and Karthik came sometimes in our meetings to distribute treaties which spoke of salvation in Jesus Christ. I thought he was a spy in the service of power of which I was wary. When the Lord revealed himself to me in my room at the wonderful experience of the new birth, I received a conviction very clear that I had to go see Karthik at the earliest, what I did. I was impressed by the life of this young man, because he lived what he read in the Bible. Karthik worked with brother Lee, a native of South Korea. Karthik lived in Agadir, and it made me understand that I could no longer continue to stay in the residence haunted Ouleid-Tema. I came to live with Karthik for two months and, with his help, I experienced further the authenticity of Scripture. Never in my parents Catholic religion I had experienced such a power. Each Bible verse I had yet read in my readings in the past finally began to shine with an impressive shine. This power of the Gospel cleared me on a daily basis from the fear of my old master Satan. Now a new fear seized me: that of the Lord. The Bible, God's Word says that the deep fear of God is the beginning of wisdom and the beginning of science in humans. My eyes began to open, as well as my spiritual understanding. Karthik introduced me to the community of brothers and sisters who intercédèrent with prayers of hymns, praise for me to the Lord. In this community quite strange for me, I was seized by the solidarity of the group, love that there's one for the others, the spirit of sharing among them. Despite being original and diverse cultures, they were in agreement: rich or poor, Asian, European, African... The unity of this group of people, instead of solve my problems aroused in me many questions on the merits of such a community association. Satan wanted I parte of this place where my licensing process had begun. I was tempted to leave this community, because these people had such incredible thirst to walk According to the Bible that I was afraid of falling into a demonic cult. I had already confessed the Lord in my room, but not before men. Gold, I knew that everything had told Alfred about me was true. This had generated a lot of fears in me. In fact, I wish I could stay in my old religious system that in Catholicism, there's a great tolerance towards sin, including at the drivers Church, while in the community of brother Karthik, sin was not accepted, in any form whatsoever. Well, I saw that I couldn't personally to experience what living most members of this community, who had a life consistent with what they read in the word of God. During my many years in the service of the devil, Sin had taken place: lies, many made of black masses, rape, incest, sexual immorality Honours, duplicity, glory and prosperity, all this was my daily lot. More and more confronted to the truth, I felt that I had to make a decision farm to abandon the unfairness that controlled my whole being and walk with Jesus Christ. I was reading the Bible for a long time, but the consulted occasionally, to draw rational arguments to refute the members of the sect of Jehovah's witnesses. 10 Songhotti du Burkina and Cameroon - a released captive Martin It was then that I met at Morocco's Songhotti, a student of Burkina. He was student in mathematics at Agadir, head of a group of prayers in his room at the University. It took a lot of risks, and brought many Arabs to salvation in Jesus, at the risk of his own life. Songhotti made me listen to an audio tape recorded by Martin, a Cameroonian issued of occultism and converted to Jesus Christ. Martin had given This testimony before a few thousand people in Ouagadougou (capital of Burkina Faso). 9 I was very impressed to hear this evidence, given by a Cameroonian like me, the same ethnic group as me (Beti ethnic group) and see that he was not afraid of testify, had no more fear of reprisals by Satan, while it had plunged deeply into the occult once. Indeed, at this time, my major problem is I doubted the capacity of the Lord to effectively protect me from all the severe reprisals that Satan would orchestrate against me. Listening to this tape many times, I came to a point where I understood that Jesus Christ came to set the captives free, not to condemn them. I was still a captive, so I approached the throne of grace of God, convinced that sin deprived me of Glory. I read this passage from the Gospel of mark; in Chapter 10, and in verse 28: "Pierre is " MIT to say: here we have left everything and followed you. Jesus answered: I tell you in truth, there is none who have left because of me and because of the good news its House or brothers or sisters, his mother, his father or his children or his land, do receive the hundredfold now in this century, houses, brothers, sisters, and mothers, children and land with persecution and in the century coming life eternal." At no point in my experience in the darkness, I had detelles lyrics reassuring. At this time, I was ready to abandon any practice of sin. Jesus Christ I reassured not only about safety that it would bring me against any threat on the part the enemy, but also it guarantees me that it would replace, by its incorruptible donations, everything that I would have lost to follow. 11. Pastor Lee of South Korea - Water baptism - departure from Morocco It is at this point that I became a member of the community of missionary brother Chad Karthik, community led by Pastor Lee, missionary to the Morocco, from South Korea. This encounter with officer Lee had not taken place earlier for two reasons: firstly the pastor Lee was very reluctant to let me enter a Underground Church in the Morocco, suspecting an infiltration shadows which could strongly affect missionary activities already quite limited by certain Islamic constitutional provisions. He was not sure that I am really and deeply converted, despite what said it Karthik. Secondly, for my part, I had done nothing so far to meet the Head of the group, fearing leaving a guru to fall into the hands of a other. I realized quickly that this community of God's children was the demonstration of the power of the Holy Spirit. The results did not wait, I began to confess before God and men my spiritual delusion, my iniquities and my many fisheries. Under the belief of the power of the Holy Spirit, I went to the Assembly submit all the rest of the cults of demonic idolatry objects that I had, without any pressure human. The occult books, statuettes, everything was burned. When I was an infant, my parents made me go through the Catholic baptism by spraying. Or by reading the Holy Scriptures, I realised that only those who believed (i.e., people who have experienced the salvation of Jesus Christ) had access to the baptism. When I was a baby, I could not believe, do not yet have the faculties to discern. Salvation is personal, I asked the baptism with Pastor Lee who hesitated at first. Many brothers he confirmed my testimony and to the ultimately, I was baptized by immersion in the sea on January 8, 1996 (I was then 27 years). At the time of the release of the waters of baptism, the pastor Lee, brother Kodji and I were trying to thank the Lord for my new life, when a fresh wind began to blow, and a noise was heard sky audibly by all, a noise similar to that of a rusty nail puller on dry wood. The Lord came by there attest that he was the work in my life. I poured tears. What moments of strong emotion in this huge countries under the influence of Islam! I remembered the persecutions which I had inflicted on against all those who wanted to tell me the good news of the Kingdom of heaven, the many insults against the servants of God announcing the word spirit and life. That My repentance gives all the glory to the Lord. After that, I was looking for what was God's will for my life. The response did not wait, the Lord wanted that I returned to Cameroon, in order to perfect my issue, but also that I witness what the Lord had done in my life, and finally to prepare me for the Ministry that it would show me. While in this period, several proposals were offered to me in the field of business, God willed that I leave the Morocco. I loved this country for the hospitality many Moroccan families, and the country knew a relative freedom of worship, although 10 limited. I had received a good education, and finally, it is in this country that I met Jesus Christ personally. Although it was painful for me, the time came to accept the will of God. Some brothers attempted to help, claiming that the economic situation in Cameroon was very worrying. Two drops salary in a year, added to which was the devaluation of the local currency by 50%, none of this could lure me in Cameroon, were it not for the plan of the creator. I knew that God is faithful. My back to him, he has planned everything perfectly. January 16, 1996 (8 days after my baptism), I was definitely leaving the Morocco. A from Agadir International Airport a few brothers had come to accompany me, including Pastor Lee, brother Kodji and brother Daniel Abaté of Cameroon. The latter, says "Dany" heading to the Morocco international movement of evangelization. I still have good memories of moments with these beloved, and with all those whom I had left in the Kingdom Sherifien. It should be noted that a significant amount of money from a bourgeois family Moroccan, that I had known before my issue should reach me shortly before my departure,. for studies of feasibility of the mining-industrial complex in Cameroon, project which I was load management. I expected this money until the last minute at the airport, but my staff did not come. The plane was full of passengers, and I was the last one who had not yet loaded. The airport speakers asked the last passengers boarding immediately. I decided to cancel my trip and go home. Pastor Lee retorted that I had to leave the country, without looking back. "One that will seek to save " his life will lose it, and those who lose it will be." Luke 17:33. Meditating quickly on These words the Lord convinced me that if in this middle-class Moroccan family, I had received a princely treatment, all this ended when my conversion to Jesus. I understand that the head of this family had also many links with companies Oriental demonic secret and it became clear the money expected successfully me never. Pastor Lee addressed a short prayer and recommended me to the Lord. He prophesied on the work of Christ that I had to accomplish in Cameroon and later still. It was the Initially, the Lord had sent the pastor Lee specially on my way for my issue (it was called for the motherland celestial shortly after). I had about given up in this country. In my binder, I didn't even have a silver coin. However I owned a new priceless treasure: the word of God. She was everything to me. It was the largest Gift I had to offer to every human being in the world and particularly in the Cameroon. The Apostle Paul said: "so I have a strong desire to proclaim the Gospel". Romans 1:15. it was time for me to experiment the 39 of the 8th chapter of the Luc evangilede verse: "returns in your House, and tells about what God has done to you." He went, and published throughout the city all what Jesus had done for him". 12. the return to Cameroon - beginning of the persecution - the baptism of Holy Spirit I therefore arrived in Douala, economic capital of Cameroon, on 16 January 1996. In my modest luggage was only a few personal effects, however my comfort remained in this wonderful experience of conversion who delighted me so much. I sternly from an administrative framework of the airport customs office the possibility to use a telephone line to come into contact with Ismaël, a cousin resident in Douala. It arrived immediately and took me home. Almost all of my family being in Yaounde, I wanted to go there as soon as possible. My older brother, A. Agrawal, worked in the North of the country as responsible Regional at Mobil, American oil company based in Cameroon. He had to get off at Douala for his work precisely the week where I arrived. We travelled aircraft from Douala to Yaoundé. Our flight has experienced many technical problems just after take-off. The aircraft was able to rejoin the track and our landing was miraculous. The fear was great in the device. The faces of the passengers and crew staff left burst a general stupor, there were just a few months than a plane of the same national company had crashed. In the same city, the balance sheet had been heavy. Being unable to take 11 a regular flight, we traveled by bus. Another incident occurred about 30 kilometers from the finish, we had to stop us, our bus with serious mechanical problems. Well before my departure from the Morocco, the brothers had warned me that Satan would seek by all means to cause retaliation against me. Do not have the means of attack me directly, because I was under the protection of the blood of our Lord Jesus Christ, he would use intimidation to produce not only the fear in me, but also the doubt on the good founded the word of God. The Lord always reassured me by his word. I took this warning of the brothers seriously, because I saw upon my return the maneuvers of intimidation of the enemy. The remedy according to the word of God was to resist the enemy: "... "Be sober, be sure. Your adversary the devil prowls like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. Resist him with a firm faith, knowing that the same sufferings are imposed on your brothers in the world." 1 Pierre 5:8. We finally arrived at the village. This was the great joy of the reunion: parents, grandparents, friends, the jubilation was general. I hesitated not to bear witness to the hand of God at work in my life during these years of absence from Cameroon. During my absence, the economic situation had deteriorated: economic recession, declining wages, devaluation, so very few people encouraged me to stay in my country, as I was considering it at the bottom of my heart. Many questioned the well founded from my back. My statements made puzzled many people, who thought that I had been repatriated, or even expelled of the Morocco. It was the beginning of the persecutions that I had to endure later. "Gold, all those who " want to live godly in Christ Jesus will be persecuted"2 Timothy 3:12. " After my arrival in Cameroon, I needed to find a meeting of real children of God in which I could persevere in fraternal communion, prayer,the young, education. Many churches I opened their doors. If all spoke of God, very little had the sake of souls according to the directives of the Holy Spirit. Pastors worried especially to have assemblies filled with crowds, without the life of Christ. My salvation was threatened several times by those who wanted to continue the rebellion, Although members of a so-called awakening Church. Some wanted to take back me to drunkenness, to the lie, concubinage, and compromises towards the floor. The Lord gave me the grace to escape from these temptations. Alone be the glory from eternity to eternity. In the early church that I visited, the leader was more captivated by the fact that a visitor came from abroad by the testimony of salvation that I wanted to make. I had no peace in this medium, and left it quickly. I better understand this passage Ezekiel 34: 1 - 4: " "The word of the Lord came me, in these words: son of man, prophesy against the shepherds of Israel! Prophesy, and say to them, to pastors: thus says it Lord, the Lord: woe to the pastors of Israel, that is grazed themselves! The should they not feeding the flock? You ate the fat, you have dressed with the wool, you killed what was bold, you have point to graze sheep. You have fortified those who were weak, healed that which was sick, healed that which was injured; you have not brought that which is lost, sought that which was lost. But You dominated them with violence and hardness." The Lord answered my prayer and I found a house in which the Lord me prepared to receive many necessary for my spiritual progress statements. I understood also in this period that in fact, it was not the Church that saves. Salvation is personal between the man and the creator while the man is living on Earth. Salvation after death, the passage to purgatory or reincarnation are only pure follythe imagination of men. If you do not have insurance on the ground that you are saved from the last judgement, there is still time for you to be, whatever the denomination that you frequent. This Assembly of the children of God where the Lord allowed me to persevere, was no more spiritual Church of Cameroon. Several times I was outraged by the actions of several faithful. Many of them had never experienced the baptism of the Holy Spirit. This was also my case. It was only after a year in the Lord that I received the baptism of the Holy Ghost with Pastor Philippe, after him with thirst and sincerity of heart. This spiritual aspect of the Church was not only my Assembly. Some Churches I visited, functioned without the manifestation of the power of the Holy Spirit. It is in this very confused mind 12 that I lived the first steps of my conversion. This added several persecutions on the part of the family, friends and all those who me knew before my conversion. I accepted with joy all these teasing, these insults, these mortifications, according to what the word says in 1 Pierre 5:10: " "The God of all grace which you was called by Jesus Christ to his eternal glory after you have suffered a little while, you refine itself, you will firm, you will strengthen, make you steadfast." 13. the physician - attempted murder and prison As the brothers had announced prior to my departure from the Morocco, the Lord allowed into great tribulation particularly trying, as the word says in Job 2:6: "The Lord said to Satan: Behold I book you; only saves his life." To the Morocco I was in contact with Jean-Paul Ondoua, student of Cameroon at the end of her studies of veterinary medicine. After my return to Cameroon, this brother in Christ had assumed his duties in the veterinary medical profession. Having taken note of my new course, Dr. Ondoua saw fit to advise a colleague in difficulty, doctor Veterinary inconverti to get in touch with me for assistance in the field spiritual. This veterinary doctor had spent a long time without being able to exercise to cause of serious disturbances in thoughts. His home, in which we had an interview, regularly housed meetings of followers of Satan. Since several months after my arrival in Cameroon, the devil was trying to help to share my experience of issuance of darkness, but he could not his goal. So he decided to move to the ultimate strategy that was nothing more than to murder me physically. The doctor revealed to me many demonic group at Yaoundé and further activities still out of Cameroon. He also told me that his mother was a priestess of the group. I prayed a prayer of intercession with the father so this captive is issued. He gave his heart to the Lord Jésus, but remained receptive to the message. While I thought I could just share my testimony with this doctor friend, Satan sought to take advantage of this situation to try to delete me. Our interview took place in broad daylight. The power of the word of God had accompanied my exhortation and the powers in this House and in the life of the doctor were seriously shaken. Some Satanists of the group surrendered immediately to the place where we were in clear the intent to me evil. The power of the Lord was at work, and I'm left this residence unless they do me no harm. But it wasn't that part discount. The hardest was to come. If the doctor had not accepted salvation, however he understood that he had to get rid of idolatrous worship objects that made him captive. He came to my home at a late hour of the night asking me to go retrieve the objects he wanted that I destroy with warranty, for him, to be free from retaliation. I presented him Jesus Christ as the only guarantee. It was then that we visited his residence after I prayed and asked the Lord to grant me the grace to help these captives. Barely entered into the concession, I had the impression of finding myself in a freezer. By a reflex inspired by the Holy Spirit, I began to sing some praise. It was then that I felt the temperature restoration: Jesus Christ is indeed risen from the dead. He introduced me into a "sacred Chamber" in which only insiders to the occult could have access. Being repentant of these acts an abomination to the Lord, my entry was possible in this room by the authority of the Holy Spirit. What did not wait. As soon as we were entered, I realized that the captive changed face, and was trying to hypnotize me by this demonic transfiguration. In addition, he released a dagger from his pocket, ready to kill me. A dreadful fear grabbed me. I invoquai the powerful name Jesus Christ; I then had the authority on this room and the doctor who is wiser. Not only I retired the belongings of the doctor, but also heritage shadows of this community with the contribution: perfume bottles, vials of human blood, Jewelry gold received from the India, etc. The doctor confessed me that he was eager to finish very quickly with all these objects because it was bound by a Pact whereby he was to deliver before the same evening someone from his family to be sacrificed. The object of idolatrous worship me were handed over at a very advanced hour of the night, then We joined a group of brothers and sisters in prayer. All objects have been destroyed, burned and thrown into a pit, with the support of the brothers and sisters during the night of prayer. The doctor put me against the virulent attacks that the Group was planning against my person. 13 We were in early 1997. Some time later, I returned one evening at the doctor to take news of the evolution of physical and spiritual health. En back to a hundred meters from the House, a group of ten individuals is seized me and led me in a residence belonging to the followers of this occult movement. They rushed on me, molestèrent me, tearing part of my clothing. Never in my life I'd been victim of such human fury. They struck suddenly with clubs in the sensitive points of the human body. I screamed in pain and anguish. After a while, they did not understand why I was not yet dead. I recognized some of them (one of them was accountant in Yaoundé), but I have no bitterness against them, discerning especially with what fury Satan wanted to delete me using poor captives that Jesus wanted to release. They were looking for a way to justify their murder equating me with a criminal night entered a home without permission. "If you are outraged for the " name of Christ, you are happy, because the spirit of glory, rest in you"." 1 Pierre 4:14. Than even the Bible gave me the attitude to adopt: " "Recompense to no man evil for evil. Look for what is good to all men"Romans 12:17. " The Lord says in his word: " "Invokes me in the day of distress; I will save you, and you glorifieras me"Psalms 50: 15. I invoquai his holy name, and he assured me that the instruments of the devil molesteraient my body, but could not reach my soul. The fidelity and the goodness of God are evident for those who fear him and rely on him. At the time where my strengths were totally annihilated a voice spoke to me: "Théophile, "download your worries with the father, he will take care of you." Daniel in the lions pit needed to be fortified in weakness. "Then he me " said fear nothing, well loved man, peace be with you! Cheer up! Cheer up! And as he spoke, I picked up forces and I say: my Lord speak because you have fortified » Daniel 10:19. Peace in my heart, I found a real comfort. A sticker purchased by a brother in the day brought me an excellent building, extreme comfort in the moment where these pirates hoped to find "the object which protected me": the sticker was the following inscriptions: " "If one forms conspiracies, this will not come from me; anyone who is liguera against you will fall under your power... Any weapon forged against you will have no effect; and every tongue which rises against you you the condamneras. Such is the legacy of servants of the Lord, this is the salvation that will come them from me, saith the Lord." Isaiah 54. We left the House under high escort to an unknown destination, it was past midnight. My home no one knew where I was in the daylight of the night. We arrived at an Office of the Commissioner of public safety of Yaoundé where another group of people expect, in police uniform. Just I got off of the vehicle as a gust blows from fists, belts and batons was shot down on me. The Lord had warned me. Satan sought by this means to break my trust in God. The test at the police station was rude, you accused me of having a demonic power. For the police I was purely and simply a causing trouble to a marabout group people. I entrusted this another step of the persecution to the Lord. "Fear not those " kills the body and cannot kill the soul; fear rather that can destroy the soul and body in gehenna."Matthew 10:28. " The Satanists were confident that after this ultimate and violent race I would certainly the soul in the cell where me was incarcerated for a period of twenty-four hours. In prison, I found many robbers also incarcerated, young for the most, who found my presence in the early morning. The police told detainees that I was an extremely dangerous marabout. However my praise to God and my attitude peaceful amazed inmates, and several favorably received the Gospel. A large Joy shines on the face of these young people without hope. One of the assistants to the Commissioner demanded that it severely punishes me. I was beaten by the plate of a machete and receipt of many slaps. I realized what the word says: "it " so with assurance that we can say: the Lord is my helper, I not be afraid; that can make me a man?"Hebrews 13:6. Are forbidden to speak the name of Jesus Christ in a cell, which rebelled 14 inmates. One who had directed the assassination attempt came in the afternoon. I continued to have compassion for these women and men under the influence of demons. In their ignorance, inflicting me abuse for which I give thanks to the Lord. I ask in my prayers to the father not to inflict these people responsible for my wounds, but they open their eyes and ears so that they know the truth that makes the free man. If Satan had the ability to put me in prison, he had no way to keep the Holy Spirit living in me in a any captivity. I have been released shortly after. 14 Felix from Nigeria - Alexis of Cameroon - entire consecration to the Lord My uncle Théophile Agyapong, whose name I bears and by which I acquired my first experience with the mystical world miraculously accepted Jesus Christ as his Personal Savior on my return to Cameroon. His personal conversion and its assurance of Hi were a great encouragement for me to continue to testify. This Uncle died some time after his repentance. Shortly before his departure, brothers and sisters gathered in his home in the village, and today is a living Christian Assembly in its village. Glory to God! Little by little, I understand every day more that the Lord was calling me to obey this order he gives to all its children in Mathieu 28: 18 - 20: "go do all the nations of the disciples, baptizing them in the name of the father, of the son of the Holy Spirit and teach their to obey everything I have commanded you. "" Pastor Felix Obodozie was a missionary who came from Nigeria. He worked on a mission to restore families. We spent deep in moments the study of the word. The Lord also enabled that I come into contact with the PasteurAlexis Gholami, Cameroon, with which I experienced the power of the anointing of Holy Spirit, to announce a message with the strength of the Holy Spirit. Many lives were immediately affected and transformed after this wonderful experience spiritual. In any place I wanted to see the Scriptures be fulfilled in my life and the transform so that each man created by God on Earth believed in Jesus Christ as his personal Savior. This is Pastor Gholami, who received the Lord as my witness should be put in writing for release. It was also during these deep teachable moments that I began to understand profoundly the work that the Lord was calling me. I needed deep consecration to God before and for any work in the service of the most high, little was it. The word of God began to have an increasing impact in my life. More more I me barrels at its source, seeking to discover the routes with more depth of God, the thoughts of God for my life. "But those who trust in the Lord renew " their forces. They take flight like eagles; they run and not be weary point. They walk and not become tired point."ISA. 40. " The new spiritual understanding of the message of God and his word drew me to many persecutions on the part of non-Christians, and even in the midst of some children of God. "You will be hated by all because of my name, but one who persevered until the " end will be saved." Mark 13:13. My joy was great because Jesus had predicted in his word, "If the world hates you, know that it has hated me before you." If you were of the world, the world would love to what is his; but because you are not of the world, and that I have chosen you in the middle of the world, to because of this, the world hates you... The servant is not greater than his master. Are they me were persecuted, they will also persecute you: if they kept my word, they will also keep the your. But they will make you all these things because of my name because they know not the one who sent me"John 15:18-21 " 15 Youssouf Pastor - Marriage with Annie-Esther - the life of couple in the Lord The Lord gave me a spiritual asylum in a family of God's children, so India in the family by the pastor for nearly a year. Youssouf was originally Garoua, country Foulbé, in North Cameroon. He is son of Imam, and his conversion raised a lot of hostilities in his family. In the North, his head is updated price in the workplace Muslim. Himself worked in diplomacy and it is often abroad. I made, in this House, lessons related to the Church and family community living; that remains the basic unit of humanity according to the divine plan. Indeed, these rich lessons and experiences 15 have usefully prepared me for a big step in my walk with Jesus Christ: marriage. The marriage between the man and the woman remains the first institution that God has prepared in this world. Men have always sought to change the divine order of marriage. All mankind is populated by other practices that go against this order: whoredoms, concubinage, adulteries, incest, paedophilia, homosexuality between men, among women, etc. The Lord has redeemed me from all these forms of shameful sexual desires and abominable I was practicing before my new birth, after that I am me bitterly repentant tears of have practiced them. The Lord revealed to me in his perfect plan for my life, I had to marry soon. At the beginning, I withstood to the will of God in this regard. At the time I used to just sometimes a modest meal per day at my aunt's house where I lived. How to explain to my aunt and my family needed a wife to my load? Little by little, I made the idea of marriage, and accepted the will of God for my life. I learned to be extremely careful with regard to marriage, in two areas: refrain from any sexual act outside of marriage, and discern God's perfect will for the choice of the wife. Many servants of God have believed do well advising me on the choice of the future wife. The proposals of each and the other centred in general Autour criteria carnal, contrary to the word of God. It was the beauty of a sister, or his intellectual level, or even its social situation. I attachai not matter to these little spiritual guidance. Thus, when father introduced me one that was to become my wife, Annie-Esther, I got the conviction that it came well of him. Once I got to know my future married before our engagement, at a seminar of young Christians organised by our Assembly. We had not even an interview. She lived in Kribi, city on the edge of Atlantic Ocean, 2 hours by car to the South of Douala. I had just finished a period of fasting and prayer with some pastors. I had the opportunity of this retreat to better make sure of the will of God about my marriage. It is on this occasion that I met Manga, a brother in Christ, owner of a company in Kribi. He was passing in Yaoundé as part of a movement for his work, and began to speak to me of a prayer at his cell where regularly had a known as bilingual Executive Secretary Annie-Esther. He spoke of it in terms that showed that she was a servant of the Lord, while his brother knew nothing about my marriage plans. After our chat, I was silent, and understand that the father had used this brother informing me that now I knew the name of my future wife. It is with great humility that I accepted this divine choice. It became a burden in my heart and I received the peace when I wrote him a letter of engagement. It is by faith that she accepted the engagement, having received the conviction of the Holy Spirit, not menot know according to the flesh, on the basis of my letter which had him rendering testimony of marelation with Jesus Christ. Several questions came me to mind. The Church will adopt the union, as well as our parents? Then there was the thorny issue and not least, the funding of this marriage, having no gainful occupation, were it not that to proclaim the mystery of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. My preparations for the wedding day have raised major concerns with many unbelieving people, my family, my friends, my house and even other children of God. Each and other concerns were indicative of a walk by sight, not by faith. A few days before the wedding, I had no savings with me, while the hundreds of invitation tickets had been distributed. And against all odds, seventy-two hours before the wedding, the Holy Spirit touched many hearts. the blessings of the Lord spilled in abundance: spiritually, physically, financially. My marriage was blessed on June 27, 1998 (I was 29 years old). Many people and the people of God glorified the Lord. My wife and I in doing as much for his goodness and His infinite grace. It is wonderful to have a wife according to God's plan. "Those who " is a woman finds happiness; it's a grace that it gets from the Lord"Proverbs " 18:22. Despite our differences, we quickly discovered that we we belong one to the other. We wanted every day to preserve our unity, our confidence, and to resolve our differences in the word of God. We ensure that our God is the undisputed master of this union in barring the road to any initiative of men seeking to separate us, or claiming to bring us peace and joy outside the Scriptures. God gave me a wife, and yet, the first 16 weeks of our union were well harsh. Satan tried to control our household by numerous tensions between We. It was even difficult to share the word of God, although this is she who had us United. Some servants of God who I shared this aspect of our young threesome demonstrating complacency or indifference. We entered several periods of fasting and prayer, and understand that our union was not really devoted to the Lord. The Lord restored our relationship on a biblical basis in all areas, spiritual, financial, and material relating to our union. In fact I realized that if a spouse complains, this will not change the other spouse. But if I entrust the problem to Jesus day and night on their knees in prayer, something will again occur in the home. What I require of my partner for the stability of the household must begin with myself. If this approach is applied on behalf of the Lord Jesus Christ on an ongoing basis, the results will not wait, glory to God! The passage of speech in Ephesians 5:28-32 perfectly showed me the relationship that I should have with my wife for a perfect harmony in the couple: " "It is thus that husbands should love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife is like himself because nobody hated his own flesh. But it nourishes and supports care as Christ does the Church"." These verses have had a great effect in my relationship with the Lord. Thank you Jesus! Our union was born March 31, 2001 the small Nathaniel, a gift from the Lord, who will one day become his servant. It is already a living testimony as it was held in life miraculously by the Lord, being born prematurely in 7 and a half months of pregnancy, weighing less than 2 kg, and we didn't have money to pay the incubator. Glory to God! 16. the call to serve the Lord - smashing school It was after my wedding I discernais more and more my call to serve the Lord. I hesitated long before accepting it definitively. There was no question that I expected the decision of human institutions to begin to testify of my experience. So I was testimony in families, churches, students and Biblical, and several Evangelistic campaigns in schools. More than ever, I was extremely attentive listening to God's plan for my life. I had the certainty that the world did not need me to be a brilliant babbler on the Bible, but rather that I expose the fulfillment of the word of God in my life. Car mankind in its sighs does not have Théophile Amougou, but rather the Lord Jesus Christ. The miserable situation spiritual and material of many servants of God in Africa and particularly in Cameroon do not encouraged me to serve the Lord. I have was surprised the zeal that had some people for the service of God without the any revelation of the breaking of the works of the flesh in their lives. Without waiting for the order of a name, I began to share my experience each time that the Lord gave me the opportunity. It is worth noting that the power of a testimony is no rank before the conversion in the Kingdom of Satan, but only of the daily walk in sanctification, so to accomplish the work for which have delivered us by Jesus Christ, namely: announce that Jesus came to set the captives free, and make disciples of all nations. I spent many hours of prayer and meditation on a regular basis in the presence of the Lord, because it was necessary for me to receive information for help me understand the mission that God wanted to entrust me. Experience a deliverance does not open the doors to any Ministry. On the contrary, such people need to sit and wait for instructions from the Lord Jesus Christ on the conduct spiritual to hold. «Lord!» Let me know your ways, teach me your paths, lead me in the truth and instruct me; because you are the God of my salvation, you are always my hope. "Psalms 25: 4 - 5. Commitment and zeal in the service of the divine without preparation work exposes an extremely dangerous spiritual adventure. A sacred given to a man by a human institution, without the consecration of the Holy Spirit in the service of a divine vision is an abomination. Many men like Abraham, Joseph, Moses, Joshua, David, Daniel, the disciples, Paul, Timothy, Apollos, and many other servants of God needed to be taught with accuracy in the ways of the Lord to be able to perform their Ministry with the power of the spirit. In this period of my life, God emphasizes my need for continuous training, and I am open to his leadership, attentive to the revelations it gives me by various means that it used for this purpose: 17 his children, the Holy Bible, the circumstances, etc. The best school of preparation that every child of God should ask at the Lord is the school of smashing. "Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he shall lift you up ". "James 4:10. Similarly, "God resists the proud, but it is thanks to the humble." 1 Pierre 5:5. 17 - An important invitation for the drive now I address particularly to those who are not yet disciples of Jesus: If you do not yet know Jesus as your Lord, your Savior, and your friend, I want to tell you, dear beloved reader, that Jesus Christ is the truth. He is a person, it has a name, he wants to live in each of us. It can save anyone who invokes his name. There is no way desperate for him. Buy yourself a Bible at the nearest Christian Bookstore, lisla with thirst regularly. View in the great Ministry of Jesus in the New Testament, remember always this: " "Jesus Christ is the same, yesterday, today and forever."Hebrews 13:8. Closer you Christian communities where this word is preached in spirit and in truth, without compromise. What Christ has done yesterday, he will do today. Entrusts him completely your life, it will fill the right now and forever. ''…because there is no other name that is under the sky been given among men, whereby we must be saved. " Acts 4:12 Dear friend, dear friend, if this testimony has touched your heart, it is proof of love and the forgiveness of Jesus manifested in the cross. My goal was not to judge you, condemn you, or you blaming. I would like to remind you that the sin of Adam and Eve is a conviction, and the curse of God remains upon you: " "For all have sinned and are deprived of the glory of God." Romans 3:23. So therefore, whether or not, you have been in the depths of the occult Jesus Christ loves you and he wants to welcome you in his house. Repent of your sins and accept-The as your Lord and personal Savior. "If we say that we have no of " sins, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us." 1 John 1:8. The ball is in your camp. Jesus Christ is the unique solution for you who are tested by what ties you currently: diseases, tests, disorders of any kind, chess... Jesus Christ is the way, the truth and the life. "Only God, our Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory, Majesty, strength and power, from before all time and now and for ever! Amen!"
