written by Rhoda Gayle

A TikTok influencer was at the right place and at the right time to save a suicidal depressed man.

TikTok Influencer

Matt Ryan recently shared a powerful testimony to his over 329,000 followers on TikTok. The Lord answered his prayer in a very powerful way!

“God, can You please show me that I’m where I’m supposed to be in my life, that I’m exactly where I’m supposed to be,” he prayed.

He went to a beach in Los Angeles and sat on the bench to read the Bible. Right before he opened his Bible, a man hurriedly came up to him.

“This is the craziest thing you’ve heard all day long, but God actually told me to come to this exact spot,” the man told him.

Save suicidal man

For the next 15 minutes, that man named Joe poured his heart out to him and told him how he has been struggling with depression and anxiety. After he finished sharing his struggles, Matt prayed for him. While they were praying, God told Matt that Joe was suicidal and that he needed to pray about it.

“Any suicidal ideations, in the name of Jesus, be gone right now,” Matt declared.

At that moment, Joe started weeping. After the prayer, he revealed that he planned to take his life that day.

“The only reason God told me to come here is because I’ve been suicidal for the last week and today, I told myself I’m going to kill myself if I don’t have answers. And God told me to come here,” Joe said.

That’s when Matt realized that God has ordained him to be at the right place and time. That’s also the moment Joe realized that God is real. It was a powerful moment that changed the lives of these two men!

“God has put me in the exact place where I’m supposed to be. And He ordains everything, every single little thing in my life,” Matt said.

God Answers 10-Year-Old Child’s Prayer To Save Premature Baby

by Rhoda Gayle
written by Rhoda Gayle

God immediately answered a 10-year-old child’s specific prayer to save a premature baby who lost her mother while giving birth.

Save a premature baby

Doctor Helen Roseveare testified about one powerful moment she witnessed while she was working at the hospital and while being a volunteer at an orphanage. She was called to the maternity room one night. A mother gave birth but sadly passed away.

The mother left her 2-year-old daughter and tiny premature baby who survived the delivery. Nurses had to stay up all night to keep the baby warm.

10-year-old child’s specific prayer

The next day, Dr. Helen went to the orphanage for her daily prayer time with the children. She asked the children to pray for that tiny premature baby. Among the group of children is a 10-year-old girl named Ruth who prayed a very specific prayer.

“Please God, send us a hot water bottle. My God, it’ll be no good tomorrow, send it this afternoon. If it comes tomorrow the baby would be dead. While you’re at it God, would you send a dolly for the little two-year-old sister so she should know that Jesus really loves her,” Ruth prayed.

Right after her prayer, a parcel came to Dr. Helen that afternoon with a hot water bottle in it. The parcel has been in transit for five months, but God made a way for it to arrive at that exact moment to answer a child’s prayer. Ruth’s prayer for the 2-year-old girl was also answered as a child from Dr. Helen’s Bible class gave a dolly to the two year old girl.

Prayer doesn’t have to be wordy or perfect, but it must come from a heart that is full of faith in the Lord.

After trauma, God asks Missionary this question...

Matthew Perry Testimony

‘Friends’ Actor Matthew Perry Prayed For Fame And Then Begged God To Save Him

by Christel Berns
written by Christel Berns

Actor Matthew Perry of ABC’s famous sitcom “Friends” testified how God saved him when he drowned at the peak of his success and fame.

Chandler Bing Of Friends

Matthew Perry played the role of Chandler Bing on the well-known sitcom “Friends.” It became the actor’s big break, where he earned a million dollars per episode. The sitcom ran for years from 1994-2004. As a result, he got everything he wanted, at least materially. He thought fame would satisfy him because it’s what he prayed to God years before. The actor asked God to make him famous. But later on, he realized it was “a dumb prayer.”

Amidst Matthew’s popularity, he struggled with drug and alcohol addiction which took a toll on his life.

Matthew came from a broken home. His parents divorced when he was still a baby. Although the actor had step-siblings and still had a great family, it created a void and emptiness in his heart growing up. Later on, he filled that void with drugs, alcohol, and eventually fame.

Matthew Perry Shares “Dumb Prayer”

The actor began drinking at 14 and became a functioning alcoholic at 18. Later on, at 24 years old, he thought becoming famous would solve all his problems. So, he prayed to God to become a popular Hollywood actor.

Matthew chased that dream and eventually landed a role on ABC’s sitcom ‘Friends.’ Soon, the sitcom became a hit, running its episodes for several years beginning in 1994. Then by 2002, he was already earning “a million dollar per episode.”

The actor unlocked all his dreams with all the money, success, and fame. But deep inside, he still felt lonely and broken. His addiction to drugs and alcohol never left. Instead, he worsened.

Until ten years later, Matthew finally looked to God again. He dropped to his knees, weeping, asking God to save him.

“God, please help me, Show me that you are here. God, please help me…,” he begged God.

Then Matthew recalled, “I started to cry. I mean, I really started to cry – that shoulder-shaking kind of uncontrollable weeping. I wasn’t crying because I was sad. I was crying because for the first time in my life, I felt okay. I felt safe, taken care of. Decades of struggling with God, and wrestling with life and sadness, all was being washed away, like a river of pain gone into oblivion. I had been in the presence of God. I was certain of it. And this time I had prayed for the right thing: help.”

“God had shown me a sliver of what life could be,” the actor remarked. “He save me that day, and for all days, no matter what. He had turned me into a seeker, not only of sobriety, and truth, but also of him.”

God Sends Missionaries To Save Drowning Man

Drowning Man Prays To God To Save Him And God Answers Miraculously

by Christel Berns
written by Christel Berns

A drowning man prayed to God to save him from the waters, and God answered by sending a group of missionaries to rescue him.

Trapped Amidst 30-Feet Deep Waters

One day, former drug addict Jimmy MacDonald went out with his family when an accident happened, that almost took his life. He was having fun paddling in a kayak when he didn’t notice the waters became rough. He was busy taking pictures with his new smartphone when he realized he had already drifted apart from his wife and stepchildren.

Jimmy tried to get back, but the water’s current was too strong. Soon, his kayak tipped over amidst the 30-feet deep water, and he lost his paddle. Nothing but an ill-fitting life jacket coming up over his head could now be seen on Jimmy in the seas.

The former amateur boxer also tried to get back up on his kayak. However, he failed and realized his life was now in danger.

“That’s when I said, ‘Alright, I think I might die today. I think this might be it,’” Jimmy recalled. “I prayed to my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ for help.”

God Sends Missionaries

And indeed, God answered his prayers as Greg Barrett, the captain for tours, saw Jimmy barely hanging. He had passengers full of Christian missionaries who pulled Jimmy out of the waters when the boat reached him.

The missionaries believed God sent them to that place at the right time.

“We’re missionaries,” one missionary, Chris Malano, said in an interview. “For us, that day, that was our mission to be present and to help someone in need.”

And now, Jimmy believes that the miracle rescue was a sign from God that He’s calling him “for a real reason.”

Today, Jimmy’s testimony has blessed thousands, and although it happened two years ago, it continues to inspire many.

Hear the whole story, and be blessed!

Quick-Thinking Flight Attendant Saves Sex Trafficking Victim

by Rhoda Gayle
written by Rhoda Gayle

A quick-thinking flight attendant saved a sex trafficking victim after she left a note in a bathroom.

Flight Attendant

During a typical flight from Seattle to San Francisco, Alaska Airlines flight attendant Shelia Fedrick noticed something off from two of the passengers. She noticed a young teen with unclean blonde hair with a well-dressed man. She immediately knew something was off with them.

The teen “looked like she had been through pure hell,” Shiela said.

She was about 14 or 15 years old, traveling with an older man. When Shiela tried to talk to the passengers, the man became defensive. That’s when she knew she had to help the poor girl. She then quickly thought of a way to help her, by leaving a note in the bathroom.

“I left a note in one of the bathrooms,” she said. “She wrote back on the note and said, ‘I need help.’”

Sex Trafficking

Shiela then followed the protocols when it comes to trafficking victims, that is to notify the pilot. The pilot then called the police who immediately set up an entrapment for the suspect. With the flight attendant’s quick thinking and the entire team’s collaboration, they were able to rescue the teen girl.

Thankfully, Shiela has been trained for such incidents by the Airline Ambassadors International. It is an organization that trains flight attendants to identify human trafficking victims. They are providing humanitarian services by using their connections with airlines.

“Airports and supporting travel hotels are major hubs of entry and exit for perpetrators and victims alike,” Airline Ambassadors say. “Training is needed for airport and travel industry personnel including airport employees, hotel employees, tourism companies, ground transportation, and law enforcement.”

Here mother also sent a prayer for their daughter’s healing to The 700 Club. That’s when they received a powerful word from God which they stood upon.

“We continued to just be steadfast, unshakeable, immovable, and holding on to His unchanging hands,” Shanequa’s father said.

Four weeks later, Shanequa was still unconscious and on a ventilator. But on the night of December 24, she finally woke up. Soon, doctors took her off the ventilator and she began breathing on her own. She was sent to rehab, and three weeks later, Shanequa had recovered.

Today, her parents credit God for their daughter’s survival from that life-threatening illness.

“I believe that God is, He is the Healer, He’s Yahweh,” the father remarked. “Just like He said He is. And I believe that no matter how big or how small your illness is, God cares about us.”

“I know that prayer works and I know that God won’t leave you,” Shanequa further attested.

Praise God for the miracle!

by Christel Berns
written by Christel Berns

A homeless man hailed hero was brought to tears for not being able to save everyone during a car accident. But a major plot twist unfolded after his emotional interview that would change the trajectory of his life.

On Wednesday night, Johnny Walker was doing some work for someone when he heard a loud crash.

“I’m homeless, I was doing some work for someone. I was taking some tools back when I heard ‘boom, boom, boom, boom, boom,'” Johnny told KTRK-TV. “Ran out here to see what it is and I saw a lot of cars. But I paid attention to the fire. My instincts were to go to that car and help him out because he was crushed in on both sides.”

In Tears

And while speaking with the reporter, the kind-hearted homeless guy began to tear up. He believed he was “at the right place at the right time.” However, he remorseful over not being able to save the woman who died in the accident. He said he tried to help her but to no avail. Hence, when he saw the officer’s burning car, fearing it would explode, he immediately took action.

“Sometimes, you have to make a choice,” he said in tears. “That car was on fire. I could lose my life.”

So, Johnny jumped over the car and worked with others to pull out the officer from the burning vehicle and get him to safety. But even after his heroic act, he still thought about the other victims.

“I’m just disappointed we couldn’t help someone else,” he said. “I’m just thinking about them little kids.”

Aftermath The Car Accident

One woman apparently died. And two children, ages five and two, and the Harris County Sheriff’s deputy are hospitalized. According to KTRK-TV, three other adults also sought medical care.

“On behalf of the Harris County Sheriff’s Office, I want to extend our condolences to the family of the deceased female,” Harris County Sheriff Ed Gonzalez said. “And we’re also praying for the full recovery of the two children that have been injured in this crash. Our deputy is said to be in stable condition and we’re also praying that he makes a full recovery.”

But Johnny’s heroic story hasn’t ended there as his family, who had been searching for him for a long time, saw him on the news. For years, the family searched for him in morgues and hospitals because they believed he could have potentially been stabbed to death. Now, the family is overjoyed to have found Johnny.

Johnny’s sister launched a GoFundMe page for his brother to help him get back on his feet. The initiative has now raised over $6,000. Now it could “help him find resources for counseling and a home.”

Thank God for working all things out for good!

Woman Went Undercover To Save Young Mothers In Abortion Facility

by Christel Berns
written by Christel Berns

A pro-life advocate went undercover as a 13-year-old pregnant girl to stop and save others in the abortion facility from going through the procedure.

Pro-Life Advocate Journey

At 9-years-old, Lila Rose discovered a book in her parents’ home about abortion victim photography. The photos revealed the cruelty of killing inside a mother’s womb using suction abortion. Those haunting images stuck in her mind, and since then, she became an advocate of life.

YouTube | 700 Club Interactive

Lila became passionate about educating young people about the evils of abortion at 15-years-old. Lila and her team have gone from place to place to speak against abortion to any audience. But despite their efforts, they felt like they weren’t making a difference. So instead, they decided to go undercover.

Posing Undercover As A Pregnant Young Girl

In Lila’s book ‘Fighting For Life,’ she revealed how she posed as an undercover teenager in a Planned Parenthood Facility. She disguised as a 13-year-old pregnant teen who wanted to have an abortion. And while in the waiting room, Lila tried to convince and talk another young pregnant girl out of her abortion. But unfortunately, the young girl did not listen and still went through it.

YouTube | 700 Club Interactive

But that didn’t stop Lila and her team to continue saving lives. Some have rejected their advocacy, but they managed to save many young mothers as well.

Today, Live Action has the most engaged following of any online pro-life organization in the world. Their lifetime video views reached 1.2 billion, with over five million followers.

The organization started to make headlines after exposing a video of a Planned Parenthood staff buying body parts of aborted babies.

Lila is now a mother and has become even more passionate about fighting for babies’ lives ever since. The message for fighting for life is simple, according to Lila.

“God has a plan for your life. Specifically to help shape our world for the better and to be changed from within as well. You can help save lives. You can help this nation to be more just and more loving. It just possible and the fight requires all of us.”

Train Conductor Saves Man Who Fell On Tracks

by Rhoda Gayle
written by Rhoda Gayle

Thanks to the swift action of a train conductor, he was able to save a man who fell on the tracks and was suffering from hypothermia.

Train Conductor

On a Saturday morning, when a CSX mile-long train was traversing its normal route in Marietta, Georgia, a breathtaking event happened! The train conductor spotted a man on the tracks in danger of being hit by the train running at 40 mph. Thankfully, due to his quick thinking and swift action, he was able to save the man’s life.

The unnamed CSX conductor stopped the train right before it struck the helpless man.

“Yesterday morning a CSX conductor entering Marietta with a mile-long freight train at full normal speed,” the Marietta Police Department wrote on their Facebook page. “He noticed a person down on the tracks and because of his swift action he was able to stop the mile-long train before striking the male.”

Saving man’s life

Apparently, the man is a homeless man who accidentally fell on the tracks and was not able to get up. As the train stopped, the conductor quickly hopped off and rushed to the man to help him. After a quick check on the man’s condition, he called for help.

“It turned out the homeless man had fallen and was unable to get up,” they continued. “He became hypothermic and if struck by the swift-moving train would surely have been killed instantly.”

CSX Train

Metro ambulance, Marietta Fire, and MPD officers quickly came to the scene to rescue the man. The unknown homeless man was immediately pulled to safety and rushed to the nearest hospital.

“Metro ambulance, Marietta Fire, and MPD officers walked roughly a quarter-mile on the loose gravel and then carried him out to safety! He was transported to Kennestone hospital for treatment.”

The CSX conductor was God’s instrument to save the man’s life. Thankfully, he was willing to be used for His purpose!
