A Testimony From Britz.
On the 14th of July 2013, I met with a number of people in the Mabopani area. A few of the young people and one matured lady graduated on that day. They received their certificates with great joy.
There was a young man in the group. He was the only man who was in the graduation class. He gave the testimony that he comes from a home where his brother is a witchdoctor. A witchdoctor is also called a Traditional Healer. They use parts of animals, plants and anything they would need to perform rituals. They get their training from spirits, which means they worship their ancestors and are led by them.
This young man did not have the freedom to tell other people that he is a believer in Christ Jesus as he was afraid of what people would say about him knowing that his brother is a Witchdoctor. While doing the training, going through the G.O.L.D. Booklet from the Bible League, he had a change of heart. He saw that he does not need to be afraid. Jesus came to set him free and he is free indeed. He realized that he cannot be held accountable for the choice his family makes. He should not fear to share his testimony as it has the power to help others out of darkness into God's marvelous light.
He said that when he had this realization it was like a heavy weight falling off from him. God is amazing! He is an ever present help in times of trouble. He gives understanding as He reveals things to us by the power of the Holy Spirit. Please pray for this young man. There may be many like him out there, who has changed or wants a change but are afraid because of where they come from. God has the power to do more then we could ever ask or think when we believe in Him through Jesus Christ our Savior, who is our Savior from sin.
