Street Evangelism: Man cancels planned visit to witch-doctor upon hearing the Gospel

The change in him was spectacular!

By CfaN Bootcamp Student

“I was going to go to the witch doctor, but something told me to stop and listen”… His life was a mess.

He told me that it seemed like he was going nowhere. That everytime he took a step forward it seemed he had to take ten steps back. He was depressed and felt as if he had nowhere to go and he did not know what to do.

“I was so depressed I was thinking what to do…by tomorrow I wanted to go the the village to consult a medium…”. But God had other plans for him.

He sat down in the park where we were preaching and felt something telling him to pay attention.

Then he heard it, the Words of God hitting him in the heart, “the pastor, I felt like he was talking about me,” he said.

Then the altar call went up, and this precious man stood and went to the front.

“I felt like an invisible man was standing beside me whispering into my ear saying, ‘what are you waiting for?'”

Precious Green gave his heart to the Lord that day and received the Holy Spirit. It was such an amazing experience to see God touch him in such a great way! In just those short moments he became a new creation in Christ and was freed from the bondages that were enslaving him. The change in him was spectacular! The man who walked up was certainly not the man that walked away.

This is the power of our saving Jesus, the one who will leave the ninety-nine to go after the one!
