MY ENCOUNTER WITH JESUS
David Abankwah
READ: John 14:23
¹⁵But when God, who picked me out before I was born and called me by his grace,¹⁶CHOSE
TO REVEAL HIS SON TO ME, so that I might announce him to the Gentiles, I did not consult anyone;
-Galatians 1:15-16 | CJB
I have had many revelations about rapture and the end times, but the day I was privileged was the day that God showed me His Son Jesus Christ. Romans 10:18 makes us to understand that, it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but it is the Lord who showeth mercy. Also, as a young guy who was struggling to make it in life during his national service in the Eastern region of Ghana, I didn’t know why God was using me as the weak thing in this life to confound the wise. As a stammerer, hardly could I speak sometimes, but before I run a medical test for a patient, I made sure I preach to the person first.
Time passed and souls were been won as I led them to Jesus Christ in the laboratory I was working in as a science laboratory technologist. My laboratory was gradually turning into a church, remarked by my peers and my boss who happened to be a Physician Assistant. They had no idea about what I had seen or the encounter I have had with the Lord. If Jesus Christ ever reveal Himself to you, you can’t keep mute about the Gospel. One of the greatest concerns of my life was that, why am I not encountering the God I serve? This is because, every subject of worship, reveals himself to the one who worships him but it wasn’t so in my case.
The Lord was merciful to me on one of the nights as I had a personal encounter with Jesus Christ. I had a vision, and in that vision, I saw the earth in the skies. As I watched, I saw it rotating, revealing the continents to me. On my right hand, I saw the same thing. As it passed, I heard a loud trumpet sound as if the whole world was about to explode. Immediately, I saw the sign of the Son of Man – Jesus Christ in the sky as Matthew 24:30 entails. I saw exactly as the Bible verse explained. I saw Him appear in heaven, covering almost all the skies to the fullest like as if His image was projected on the screens of the whole skies.
As I looked at Him, I saw His face with scars with blood oozing from His face. His eyes were fiery red like someone who was very angry. Immediately I saw Him, I knelt down and the whole world were mourning and people were running for their lives saying, was it true? Was this what they had been talking about in the Bible? We taught it was a joke, but now it is happening! As I beheld Him in the clouds of the heavens with power and great glory exactly as Matthew 24:30 says, I knew the Bible is so true than I had believed. Jesus Christ is alive than we thought. Believe in Him and be saved. This is my testimony and it is true!
