Vani Marshall shared a testimony of how Jesus moved in the life of her devoted Hindu mother.

Vani Marshall

A full-time evangelist, Vani Marshall, shared a beautiful story that greatly encouraged Christians still praying for their family members’ salvation. She recalled what Jesus did in the life of her mother, who was a devoted Hindu. One time, she received a phone call from her cousin telling her that her mother bought a bouquet and went to a local church in Malaysia. Vani was confused, knowing that her mother believed in Hinduism. She asked her cousin if she meant that her mother went to a temple.

Her cousin then explained that it wasn’t a temple but that her mother had visited a Christian church. She admitted that she wasn’t responsible for that sudden change of heart. She never asked her mother to visit a church.

Then, she highlighted, “There are some things that God knows that may be beyond us, but He will do it all by Himself. Like the tide that comes in without my help. And the wind and the breeze that moves trees without my help.”

Jesus Healed Her

She called her mother and asked her, “Mom, Jenny said that you went to church with some flowers. Is that true? Was it a temple you went to?” Her mother replied, “Well, I didn’t want to tell you.” Then her mother recalled one instance when she asked Vani to pray for the pain in her legs and knees. During that moment, she believed that Jesus had healed her since the pain left that evening.

Moreover, her mother shared, “I didn’t know how to thank this Jesus. Didn’t know what I could do for Him. So, I went out and got flowers. And I didn’t know what church to go to. You know there are so many in the Yellow Pages, so I just went to a random church that had a cross. And thought, maybe He lived there, Maybe He would receive my flowers.” After that, Vani told her mother that God loved and accepted her flowers. Then, she shared with the congregation that her mother hadn’t been baptized yet, but Jesus had moved into her life.

How To Partner With Holy Spirit To Parent Successfully

by Lisa van den Berg
written by Lisa van den Berg

This is the miraculous story of a young stepmom who learned how to partner with Holy Spirit to parent successfully.

I married a man who had an 18-month old daughter from his first marriage. I had already made up my mind that I didn’t want children of my own, so I set about learning what I needed to know.

We lived abroad and so we saw her for 2 weeks every 2 years until she turned 10.

While visiting us that year she looked at me and said, “Mommie, can I can come live with you and Daddie?” 

Help, what do I do?

I was a brand new Christian and a brand new stepmom and I soon found myself in way over my head!

Children don’t come with an instruction manual

I tried to glean all I could from books, friends at Church and local community organizations. While all of them were very helpful, I just knew that there had to be more. 

God knows everything about being a great parent

As I sat on the stairs one day waiting for her to come home from school, I heard the Holy Spirit whisper to me, “today she just needs a cup of tea and for her Mom to hold her.”

I was absolutely amazed at how sweet our time together became as I followed what Holy Spirit told me day after day. After all, He is the perfect parent and wants to help us be great parents too.

Today, she is 30 years old and even through the up’s and down’s, we are best friends. Thank You so much Lord for helping this clueless Mom to love on her child.

Thank you GOD TV partners for helping us preach the Gospel to the Nations, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. If you haven’t yet partnered, we would love for you to join the GOD TV partner family by clicking the button below.

Mom Treasures “Small Moments” Which Are Actually “Miracles That Go Unnoticed”

by Christa
written by Christa

A mom of four is highlighting small moments that are really not “small.” She refers to them as “miracles that go unnoticed.” One example is her story about “getting to carry her toddler son.”

Jennie Moss

Jennie Moss developed fibromyalgia after the birth of her son, Winston. The constant nerve pain in her hands, arms, and back caused her inability to hold her baby. “I was unable to carry my baby anywhere, even for a short time,” she said.

She went to doctors, took medicine, and spent money trying to find relief and healing, but to no avail.

Miracles that go unnoticed

But Jennie found her healing in God.

She shared, “Through a mighty miracle, God helped me find healing. It happened over time, but I am still in awe that my body is without the constant pain.”

Now, she is sharing about this miracle in a short clip of video she posted on her Instagram reels. It points to God’s healing power. The video shows the miracle.

She said, “I held him and conducted for 3 verses of ‘I am a child of God.””

Jennie was able to hold her toddler while still continuing to conduct music.

This may be simple for some, but for Jennie, she knows that it is all God. “This miracle is not lost on me,” she shared.

“I treasure this miracle giving me the chance to hold my toddler while conducting music. It is sacred ground.”

She added, “Many miracles can go unnoticed because they come together every time.”

Mom Of Conjoined Twins Surrenders To God In Prayer Before The Separation Surgery

by Christa
written by Christa

A mom of conjoined twins held her babies in her arms as she declared life and prayed over them.

Mom of Conjoined Twins

Primrose Moses, mom of Zion and Zayne, shared the journey of how her conjoined twins got separated. But throughout, she and her husband, Pastor Christian Moses, stood on God’s promises and held onto their Creator.

Last year in September, the Moses couple received the excellent news that they were pregnant with twins. But at 12 weeks, doctors recommended termination because of the babies’ condition. But Primrose and Christian chose to trust their miracle-working God.

Finally, the twins were born. But they had to wait until they were two months old to undergo separation surgery.

While waiting, Primrose’s friends started a prayer chain for the boys. They never stopped praying until the day of the operation.

Prayers of Surrender

Then, the day they had been waiting for came. The twins were old enough for the separation surgery.

Although Primrose felt anxious, she decided to surrender and lift her baby boys to God. And before handing them to the doctors, she prayed over them.

She said, “I feel blessed to be their mum. There was definitely no other way but to pray and commit them to the hands of God almighty.”

At that moment, she held onto Philippians 4:6-7. “Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.”

Moreover, Primrose and Christian did not sit and wait around during the operation.

“We prayed, praised, worshipped, and danced until we got the first news they were separated and about to be stitched up,” Christian shared.

Indeed, the operation was successful, and after a month, the boys are now home with their older brothers. The Moses family is complete, and they thank God for His protection and faithfulness.

Mother Gives Birth To Baby Without Heartbeat, 23 Minutes Later A Miracle Happened

by Christel Berns
written by Christel Berns

A mother got pregnant after five years of praying with her husband. But after she gave birth to her son, he was without a heartbeat. Then 23 minutes later, a miracle happened.

God Surprised Couple With Another Baby

Deanna and her husband, Lee, felt grateful to God when they had their firstborn, Abby, in 2011. And after giving birth, the couple gave up on getting pregnant again because they struggled with infertility. But eight years later, God surprised them.

Once again, after five long years of praying and trying, Deanna got pregnant again.

“We knew God had given us this child,” the mother attested.

Later, the couple found out they would have a son. Deanna was overjoyed and excited when she discovered her baby boy was healthy inside her womb. But that would all change when the time came for her to deliver her son.

Gives Birth To Baby Without A Heartbeat

Meanwhile, her husband, Lee, had an impression from God beforehand that something awry would happen. The father got worried, but God assured him that He would finish what He started. As a result, he prayed unceasingly during his wife’s entire pregnancy.

When Deanna’s due date came, she still felt no labor pain. So, doctors decided to have her induced. However, during labor, her condition didn’t get any better. Instead, she felt unbearable pain, vomited, and then her blood pressure suddenly dropped. Hence, doctors rushed her for an emergency C-section.

Soon, Lee called out friends and family and even took to social media to his wife’s condition to help him pray for her. He cried out to God and pleaded for the Word He promised him.

Later, the husband discovered that Deanna’s uterus had ruptured, and she had lost a lot of blood. But thankfully, she recovered. However, her baby was without a heartbeat and in critical condition. The medical staff had to revive the baby for 23 minutes before he came back to life.

Watch how God turned things around!

This Mom Only Had $20 Left But A Miracle Happened After Her Son Prayed

by Rhoda Gayle
written by Rhoda Gayle

A broke mom had only $20 left in her bank account when her son prayed for money to buy them ice cream. Right after his prayer, they found a miracle check right on their doorstep!

Only $20 in her account

Sarah Moore Gruver is a mother of three children and has to tightly budget her money each week. She took her children to the grocery store with her but they began to ask for ice cream. With just $20 left to last her for the rest of the week, Sarah couldn’t afford to give in to her children’s request and told them about their financial state. She also explained that they had enough good food at home and didn’t need ice cream.

Her kids were disappointed and Sarah was heartbroken with their situation. But instead of giving up, her eldest child, Josh, said a prayer to God.

“We know you can”

“God, we’d really love some ice cream. Is there any way you can give mommy some money so we can get some ice cream tonight? We know you can. Thank You,” Josh prayed.

Sarah scolded her son for praying such a selfish prayer as it was also the time when Hurricane Harvey hit Texas.

“God isn’t going to drop money on our doorstep so you can get ice cream. He’s BUSY right now with natural disasters,” she said to her son.

But Josh has a lot of faith in Jesus and he was confident that God would hear his prayer.

“Nope, God said you’ll have plenty of money for ice cream and to give some to the natural disaster people,” he answered as if he had personally heard back from God!

$123 check

The mom of three was silenced upon returning home, there was a surprise waiting for the family! There was an envelope on their front porch that contained a check for $123! She eventually learned that it was from an over-payment of a student loan from many years ago.

Josh’s prayer was answered and Sarah did everything as her child prayed.

“The kids were not surprised. God was not surprised. They got ice cream. The Red Cross got a donation. And mom remembered, yet again, what it means to have the faith of a child.”

This story is a reminder to us all of what our prayers and faith can do! Share this to bless others!

10-Year-Old Amazed Paramedics As She Helps Mother Deliver Own Baby Sister

by Christel Berns
written by Christel Berns

A 10-year-old girl bravely jumped into action to help her mother give birth to her baby sister. Paramedics and 911 dispatchers were amazed.

10-Year-Old Helps Mother Deliver Own Baby Sister

Viola Fair, a pregnant mom in Missouri, was three weeks before her due date when she went into labor. But when it happened, no one was at home except her 10-year-old daughter, Miracle Moore. The young girl immediately called 911. And despite her age, she jumped into action to help her mom deliver her baby sister because it would be too late for her mother to get to the hospital for labor.

So, through a phone call, the 911 dispatcher, Stranghoener, instructed Miracle on what to do. The young girl calmly followed amidst the tense situation within 11 minutes. Later on, the mother successfully gave birth to her baby girl.

“She followed all of my instructions to a T’ and did an amazing job,” the 911 dispatcher said. “A few minutes later, we had another baby girl in the house.”

A Miracle

Soon after Miracle helped her mother deliver her baby sister, the paramedics arrived and took them to the hospital. Both are now “safe and sound.”

Furthermore, Viola attested to how her daughter took care of her when she labored. Miracle wrapped her baby sister “wrapped her up in a towel, and rubbed her back to get her to cry.”

One of the paramedics, Blake Alicea, also expressed her amazement with what the 10-year-old did.

“Everything went perfect,” she said. “I couldn’t have asked for a better miracle or anyone else on the scene. Everyone played their part. She is super brave for what she did.”

Later, authorities rewarded Miracle for her bravery “with a special certificate and other goodies.”

Truly, Miracle is living up to her name as a “miracle” to somebody else. She is a blessing even at such a young age. God bless her family!

Family Boat Sucked Into Power Dam Testimony

Mother’s Prayer Birthed A Miracle For Family’s Boat That Got Sucked Into A Power Dam

by Christel Berns
written by Christel Berns

A family day out became a horrifying experience when their boat got sucked into a power dam. Until mother’s desperate prayer birthed a miracle, “Jesus, I need You to walk on water right now.”

Whole Family Sucked Into A Power Dam

One day, the Merritt family went out sightseeing and bonding on the Lakeside of the Georgia Power Dam. It was a great day for the family riding on their boat when an unexpected horror unfolded before their eyes.

During that time, Kelly, her husband, and two children didn’t know that the open gates of the dam were creating a strong current underwater. Hence, they lost control of the boat as the current pulled it closer to a concrete wall. On top of that, they went faster, because it was sucking the boat. Soon, it smashed into the side of the concrete wall and found themselves helpless.

Praying For A Miracle

At that point, Kelly responded in the way she knew how—pray. She desperately prayed and cried out to God to save them. Meanwhile, her son tried to jump off the boat into the water. But he only got sucked by the water, and they lost sight of him. After that, she immediately grabbed her daughter and embraced her to protect her. But as soon as the boat got sucked through the concrete wall as well, she was forced to let go of her.

Kelly accepted her fate that day that she might die after being dropped by the strong current. But even during those times, she had a conversation with God. Kelly thanked God for the life He gave her. But she wouldn’t want to live anymore if her family had died. So, she said, “Jesus, I need You to walk on water right now.” The mother knew she only needed Jesus at that moment. Not an ambulance, a helicopter, or a life flight.

“I need a Miracle Worker, I need Jesus,” the mom declared.

Later on, Kelly witnessed a miracle, and God proved Himself faithful to her. Watch what happened.

"I need a MIRACLE, not an ambulance!"

God Prompts Police Officer To Adopt Baby From Mother He Caught About To Inject Heroin

by Christel Berns
written by Christel Berns

God prompts a police officer to adopt an unborn baby from a mother he caught about to inject heroin while on duty.

Police Officer Meets Drug-Addicted Woman

On Sept. 23, 2017, Police Officer Ryan Holets met a drug-addicted woman named Crystal Champ on the streets of Albuquerque, New Mexico. When he saw the woman, she was about to inject heroin into her veins. The Officer approached her and discovered that she was pregnant. So, he warned her not to do it because it would surely kill her baby.

Soon, Crystal broke down in tears and told her story to the Officer. Apparently, she started doing drugs in her teenage years. Crystal tried to change, but every time, her addiction came back. The 35-year-old became homeless and got pregnant as she lived on the streets.

God Prompts To Adopt Baby

In the video recorded by Ryan’s bodycam, Crystal shared her frustrations and pain.

“You have no idea how hard this is,” she told the Officer. “I know what a horrible person I am and what a horrible situation I’m in.”

Then she opened up that she “had been looking for someone who could adopt her unborn baby.” That’s when Ryan felt a prompting in his heart.

As a Police Officer, it’s no longer unusual that he would witness things like Crystal’s situation. However, this time, he clearly heard God speaking to him.

“Tell her that you will do it because you can,” God told him.

After hearing God’s voice, Ryan immediately called his wife, Rebecca. Even with four kids already, the Christian couple obeyed God and agreed to adopt the baby.

Three weeks after that encounter, Crystal gave birth to a baby girl. Ryan and Rebecca named their new daughter Hope. And the couple plans to tell baby Hope the truth when she gets older.

Following the adoption, Crystal went to rehab and is now in better condition.

“There needs to be more people like Ryan and his wife and their family in this world,” Crystal attested.

18-Year-Old Ukrainian Teen Loses Mother To Bombing, Then Raises 4 Younger Siblings On His Own

by Christel Berns
written by Christel Berns

An 18-year-old Ukrainian teen who lost his mother to a bombing in Ukraine steps up to raise his four younger siblings.

18-Year-Old Ukrainian Teen Loses His Mom Amid War

With the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine, too many lives have been lost. And one heartbreaking story is about an 18-year-old Ukrainian teen whose mother died in the shelling last mid-march.

Viacheslav Yalov and his family lived in Donetsk. It is a place in Ukraine that has become a battleground since 2014. But in mid-March, a tragedy happened to their family, forcing them to leave their hometown deeply broken.

The eldest and his mother went out from the home to look for supplies at a friend’s place when a bomb hit near the site. According to the report, it hit them, which caused serious injuries to his mom. The teen tried to ask for help but came back helpless. No one was able to help them medically. So, he went back and tried to control his mom’s bleeding until she died in his arms.

Raises His Younger Siblings On His Own

Viacheslav was deeply broken and returned home without his mother. He couldn’t afford to tell his siblings the heartbreaking news. But they immediately understood what happened as they saw him covered with blood.

Now, the 18-year-old Viacheslav has to raise his siblings on his own. Some days, he wishes his mom was still alive. But regardless, he has accepted the challenge to stand strong for his younger siblings—Milo, Nicole, Timmoor, and Olivia.

Unfortunately, Viacheslav and his siblings could no longer stay in their home, for it was severely damaged. But thank God, a friend lent him money, and they traveled toward the southwest of Ukraine. In Lviv, they arrived safely, and the government took care of their shelter.

Strangers who know the story suddenly walked up to their apartment to help or cheer up the teen.

What a blessing this young boy is! Let’s pray for him and his family, and may God bless him even more.
