"The idea to work for the LORD through ministry, was not an idea which came to me through happenstance. I truly believe that I had a divine encounter with God Almighty, the Creator of all things. Although at the time when it happened I was not sure what was taking place. It occurred one day when my family and I were deep in discussion on the topic, "the sign of the second coming of Jesus Christ". The best way in which I could describe this experience, would be seen in the following testimony. In the midst of our talk, I suddenly felt a strong jolt within my body. It was as though a violent eruption was exploding within me and I started to shake intensely. My lips began to clatter and words could not have escaped the roof of my mouth. Throughout the entire phenomenon I remained aware of my surroundings, but my family looked at me with a measure of dismay. It was at this time my wife suggested, to lift up a word of prayer unto the LORD. This continued for no less than five minutes, until it gradually began to dissipate and even after reaching to a complete halt externally, I still felt an incessant shivering inside. A similar experience repeated itself within me a few months afterwards. Again it took place while in discussion with my family on the topic of eschatology or "Last Day Events". However, only this time under slightly different circumstances, being in the presence of other witnesses. On another occasion, while I sat within the confinement of my living room during my daily study of God's word, a small brown dove came from outside and lighted on my right hand. I actually felt his feathery wings for probably ten seconds or so, until he flew off and landed on one of the ventilation blocks and remained there for awhile until finally taking flight. I am quite certain, that we would all agree, that under normal circumstances, a small bird of this nature would be naturally overwhelmed with trepidation and fear, coming into the presence of people. And finally the LORD confirmed His calling upon my life, when on one Sabbath afternoon while I was taking a rest, I had a dream, where I saw myself teaching the congregation, the events relating to the soon return of Jesus Christ from the 1843 and 1850 Habakkuk's charts." Yes my friends, I know for a fact, that the idea for me to enter into ministry, was a Divine calling from the LORD, to go tell His people, that He is coming soon. I thank God for all of you who have read this testimony, and as thus, I hereby solicit your prayers that I would humbly remain faithful to God's calling.
