Amber found the power of God she’d been searching for. 

I got baptized in the Church of Christ when I was 12 years old, but afterward, I didn’t feel any different. Despite reading about many powerful things in the Bible, I felt like I couldn’t access that power. Suffering from depression, I turned to drugs and alcohol to find some peace.

I met someone from The Revival Fellowship who said that to receive the Spirit, you had to speak in tongues. I was suspicious at first, but I could see it in the Bible. I knew I hadn’t received the “Holy Ghost and fire” that John the Baptist said Jesus would give to people. So, I attended a meeting to see if there was a way to connect with that power. I was baptized, and four weeks later, I received the Spirit and spoke in tongues. It wasn’t me; God had done it. From that point on, I no longer wanted to smoke, drink, use bad language, or use drugs. 

The Lord has blessed my life financially, my children, protected me, and taken care of my needs. I’m so grateful that God revealed himself to me and gave me his Spirit. He’s been a father to me.
