The AC Milan star boldly shared his special moment as he decided to get water baptized in his hometown in Germany. He wrote, “Revelation 3:20 – And it’s up to US to open the door or not.”
“Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come into him, and will sup with him, and he with me.” (Revelation 3:20)

Indeed, the 36-year-old opened the door of his heart to Jesus. “The only thing what saves me right now, will give me peace, happiness, and everything… I wanna show you guys is that Jesus is King,” he said in one of his interviews. “For me, it changed my life.”
Moreover, he recalled how he came to know Jesus and his encounter with the King.
Prince’s Encounter With Jesus
Prince grew up with only Muslim friends and family. He believed in a higher power, but he was never religious.
But five years ago, someone presented Jesus to Prince. It did not immediately lead him to a relationship with Jesus, but it planted a seed in his heart.
Then, a fellow colleague started talking to him about the Bible. They had conversations about the Word of God and slowly, those conversations opened his heart to Jesus.
Finally, in the World Cup Tournament in Sydney, Prince surrendered his life to Jesus.
That same person prayed for Prince and he felt the Holy Spirit encounter him.
“First time, I felt something inside of my body was just like impossible to explain,” he said. He felt the conviction of the Holy Spirit and he knelt to the ground, broke down and repented of his sins.
Then, he heard a voice telling him, “Come home.”
Prince knew that it was the voice of Jesus that invited him to come home.
Today, he is not ashamed to declare Jesus as his Lord and Savior.
