In October, we asked you to pray for a number of summits. God certainly answered your prayers! Here are a few of the testimonies that we received from one church ...
Through the summit, Christ opened up my heart to forgiving my biological father who abandoned me when I was two. Christ showed me that bitterness was eating at my heart, and being unforgiving was making me push others away. I was able to forgive him, and that bitterness is gone! I feel ten pounds lighter. After being able to forgive him, it's like my faith in Christ was renewed. I'm not scared to keep drawing closer to Him because I now truly realize He will never leave, nor forsake me. He's my Daddy and the only thing I need and want in this life. (from a daughter)
I was a selfish and proud man. In these last weeks, I have learned that obedience in every way brings blessings in more ways than one. The way that I now discipline my son has brought such a peace to our family. The periods in which he is upset with me are almost nonexistent compared to what they used to be. Since I have started praying with my wife I have noticed a connection far beyond what we had before. I am so thankful for what God has revealed to me. (from a husband/father)
Fifteen days ago, my husband and I were separated again. We had been separated on and off for a year and a half. We had our first court hearing for divorce on September 21. I wholeheartedly thought that was what we had to do. We could not get along. Fighting off and on, tired of doing things alone with just me and my children, I wanted to be a priority and be loved.
Then my husband went to the church the day of court and spoke to the pastors. He started The Love Dare and committed to coming as a family to the revival. Since then we have both grown so much. I have learned to release control, to swallow my pride, and, most of all, how to show respect. We have not communicated this well in our eleven years of marriage. We are thankful to the summit revival and pray God will continue blessing many more families and the summit team. (from a wife)
Thank you for praying! You are a vital part of this ministry!
