I recently reread the book I wrote called Miracles are Your Destiny. I was amazed as I read and remembered things I had all but forgotten; the miraculous things I have experienced in my ministry! I also knew God had led me to read it at this time, because signs are everywhere that the hour when we will need miracle power is very shortly upon us.

Following is the Epilogue of my book. I wrote:

I thought chapter 23 was the last of this book. Then, just this morning (May 2021), I received a phone call from a lady (identity withheld for privacy)  who gave me the following testimony. I know this was the Holy Spirit’s doing. It’s a picture-perfect finish to this book:

“One of my brother‘s friends and my uncle molested me (not rape but touches that I discerned were wrong). My whole life, from a young age (maybe eight), I was hypersexual, obsessed with thoughts about sex, and masturbating. While playing with Barbie Dolls with friends, I would try to get them to show me their private parts. With that came feelings of anger, being misunderstood, and feeling alone, because none of my other friends acted that way. I would have night terrors and panic attacks. I often heard the voice of the devil in my mind. To the tune of “Mary had a Little Lamb,” Satan would sing to me, “Jesus is going to rape you! Jesus is going to rape you!” I would have dreams about demons raping me. Afterward, I would see the face of my father (who hadn’t done that) or other men I knew. Then, I felt such shame upon waking up.”

“At twelve years old, I was saved at a Carmen concert. I started reading the Bible, but I didn’t lay down my sin. I always repented of my sin and asked God to forgive me, but went right back to it repeatedly. As an adult, the hypersexuality continued. I cheated on everybody I had ever been with. My 3^rd husband asked me, “Have you ever thought about swinging (with another man)?” I didn’t like the idea, but did it anyway. My husband wanted me to stay a sinner. He was into pornography. I was into it too. With me, it was like a drug, trying to get a fix. I also was angry at the drop of a hat.”

“In 2020, I was in my thirties. When Dea came to our church and spoke, he afterward stood at the altar to pray for people. When he asked me what my problem was, I didn’t say, “hypersexuality and sexual addiction.” I said, “extreme anger.”  Then he prayed over me. Instantly, my whole body felt tingly, with goosebumps. My knees were knocking uncontrollably. When I went home, I prayed, “Let me be healed.”

“That was the beginning of my true sanctification. I laid down all sin. I started paying close attention to the “triggers”. No more adultery or masturbation, rather lying face down on the floor, laying it at the cross. It has been beautiful! It was like that lifelong addiction had been cast out. I thought, “Victory! I am a new woman and healed.”

“But then the Lord spoke to me and said, “We’re not done yet.” I knew I still had to deal with anger, anxiety and night terrors, and the demons raping me. I had had nightmares and night terrors about twice a night all my life! After my deliverance, I had just two more of these dreams. I woke up crying after the first one and said, “No, I will not go back to that!” Then I learned about the importance of putting on the armor of God and rebuking the enemy. I was then able to overcome those demonic attacks.”

“Right after I got delivered, I left my husband. I spent ten days over 1000 miles away from him, I love him, but I knew I couldn’t be unequally yoked to him the way he was. I bought a house and was painting it and cleaning it up. I even bought furniture because I felt that I had left him. On the 10^th day, my mother said to me, “You know you can forgive him.” I hadn’t even thought about forgiving him. I knew I had been forgiven, but now I determined that I could forgive him also. The next day, I had a strong pull to come back to my husband, so I left and returned to him.

When I got home, I announced, “I will never let any man drag me to hell again! Don’t ever talk to me about the sin or ask me to do it!” He said, “Ok.” He was an agnostic, but he stopped looking at pornography because he didn’t want to lose me.”

“One night, he was sitting at a bar, talking to a stranger. He told the man who was smoking and chewing like he was, “I am trying to stop smoking, chewing, and drinking. I also want to live for Jesus.” With that, he felt an amazing feeling come over him. It was like a pain (tingle) throughout the whole body. He started weeping uncontrollably. He even felt Jesus standing next to him.”

“At 11 PM, he ran home in the rain, pounded up the stairs, and threw himself over my legs, weeping. He then told me, ‘I felt Jesus standing next to me, and I want to live for Him.’ I led him in the sinner’s prayer! He is a new man. He started taking the initiative and prays before meals. He goes to church every Sunday and to Bible studies. It was the most extreme change I have ever seen. We both got baptized in water, along with one of our children. We are both happy.” (end quote)

From Dea: Her testimony is an example of the truth that no matter how Satan attacks the church with his Revelation 12:12 “great wrath,” the Lord will still use us to bring deliverance to His people. Not only that, the manifestation of the dunamis power He has given us all will win the lost!

A world of sinners caught up in the spirit of the age (which is hypersexuality) will come to the Lord because of the “sign-gifts” of healings, deliverances, and prophetic words we bring. This will all be in fulfillment of Isaiah 60:1-3:

“Arise, shine; For your light has come! And the glory of the Lord is risen upon you. For behold, the darkness shall cover the earth And deep darkness the people; But the Lord will arise over you. And His glory will be seen upon you. The Gentiles shall come to your light, and kings to the brightness of your rising.”

I remind you that the above lady’s testimony is but one of many others in my book. Don’t forget to order it today.

Nathan Warford’s Report from Japan…

Dearest friends and brothers and sisters in Christ: God has been so faithful and good to me this past month with so many open doors and favor!

Recently, I took a nearly 2-week trip to Osaka, a city located south of Tokyo.  The first 5 days were spent vision casting and surveying the land to see what God was doing in that region of Japan.  As some of you may already know, my first missions trip to Japan 18 years ago was to Osaka.

I was able to revisit the church I served with for months and to see what God has done since then.  The church was thriving! I also quickly realized it was a Foursquare Church! Since my first time there, they had grown in size and number, maintained multiple ministries (cafe ministry, preschool, English ministry etc.) and the Pastor, his wife, and several of the congregants remembered me! They introduced me to parents who had accepted Jesus while my team was there and were still serving God alongside their children.  It was so encouraging to see such a healthy church and to know I had helped play a part in its origins! 

One evening, a group of us went out to a local spa to relax and meet people, and within moments we met a large group of high school boys! We shared the gospel with them, shared that we were missionaries, and invited them to church and several of them said yes! It was so easy.  Then we went to a restaurant afterwards and met and connected with even more people.  It felt as if everywhere we went we were making connections and exchanging contacts.  Truly exciting!

That weekend, my missionary friend Jordan and I attended an international church in downtown  Osaka.  We had lunch with the pastor after the service and heard more of his heart for evangelism.  He has a successful presence online and speaks at multiple conferences, so it was a privilege to have time to ask questions and see his vision.  Afterward, we were able to evangelize  in the downtown area with several great conversations.  

On Monday our primary reason for traveling to Osaka arrived.  There was a three-day conference with the majority of Youth with a Mission (YWAM) missionaries in Japan in attendance.  Alongside a few hundred missionaries, we experienced wonderful worship, connection, and vision casting.  One of the primary sessions was on church planting. YWAM Japan is now emphasizing a Discipleship Making Model called “Full Nets” where the goal is to empower new Japanese Christians to evangelize in their work or leisure community and start a Bible study in their home.  This model has resulted in tens of thousands of salvations and thousands of new churches in Southeast Asia.  This is truly an answer to prayer for me, as I have been praying for YWAM to have more focus on church planting.  There will be a seminar regarding it in November, which is three weeks long, which I plan to attend.  

At the end of the conference, we had an outreach in the nearby park where we met several families and shared with them tracts with a message and invited them to church.  On my final day, we were able to have an especially great connection with a young woman working at a small restaurant in the train station.  She looked downcast, so we asked her how she was doing.  We began to share the Gospel with her, and the Holy Spirit gave me an image of her standing as a child holding one flower and desiring more. Then Jesus came to her with a bouquet of flowers, which He gave her.  She listened intently to every word we said as we shared God’s love for her.  I gave her a Bible and an invitation to a local church.  She was moved and felt God’s love!
