A man boldly accepted Jesus in public after passing by a group of believers who were worshiping God.
Man Boldly Accepted Jesus
Ross Johnston shared a testimony where he prayed for a man named Mike.
Ross said, “Yesterday we went to the Venice beach boardwalk to worship Jesus and share the gospel! Mike was one of the people that had an encounter with Jesus! He was simply walking by and heard the worship. And then he listened for a while and was so bold to respond to the gospel invitation that I gave. You can even see his response!”
In the Bible, Jesus mentioned the parable of the sower.
“Some fell on rocky places, where it did not have much soil. It sprang up quickly, because the soil was shallow. But when the sun came up, the plants were scorched, and they withered because they had no root.
“Other seed fell among thorns, which grew up and choked the plants. Still other seed fell on good soil, where it produced a crop—a hundred, sixty or thirty times what was sown,” (Matthew 13:5-8, NIV).

Clearly, the Word of God, which is the seed, fell on good soil. Because Mike boldly accepted Jesus as his Lord and Savior. It was Ross and his team who planted good seed and a man that’s heart was good soil.
God knew that at that moment, Mike needed a divine encounter.
Man Boldly Accepted Jesus After Prayer
Ross went on to pray for Mike, “Holy Spirit, I pray right now for Mike, that he may never forget this moment. And I pray that every bit of darkness that tries to consume him for the past ten years will be broken off right now, in Jesus’ name.
“I pray for your heart, Mike, and your mind that from this day forward, you will sense the presence of God like this every day of your life. Holy Spirit, what the enemy intended for evil for Mike’s life, God, you will turn it for good right now.”
After the prayer, Ross testified on behalf of Mike that God’s presence was so evident in that moment. “He literally said multiple times that he felt the presence of God on him and in his heart; this was a powerful moment. Jesus saved him right there in that moment, praise God!”
“Friends, this is one of the darkest places in California, but when we understand who we are in Christ and that the spirit of God lives in us, it doesn’t matter the atmosphere! People are hungry for truth, for salvation, and to get right with God!” Ross concluded.
