A revelação do Jejum de Daniel

Inexplicable Peacr

Bishop, as I read this testimony, I remembered when I first came to the Universal Church in Guarulhos, 11 years ago.

I was just like her, criticized the UCKG and, as a Catholic, didn’t even want to hear anyone mention Bishop Macedo’s name. I was very sick, had depression and a panic disorder, an inflamed herniated disc and sciatic nerve. I took prescription drugs for the depression, but nothing helped. My husband invited me to go to Church, but I did not want to; he continued to insist and we went. When I got there, I don’t know why but the pastor began to criticize the Catholic Church. The pastor made me so angry that I didn’t want to ever go back. However, my illnesses also got worse.

A month later my husband began to insist on taking me to the Church again. He was used by the Holy Spirit, because though he wasn’t a member of any denomination, he said, “This is the last time I’m asking you to go to the Universal Church. If the same thing happens again, then we won’t ever go back.” So I said, “Okay, I’ll go for you.”

And we went to the Headquarters, because the Cathedral didn’t exist at the time. When I arrived, the pastor asked those who were sick to come forward. He said everything I had. I said, “Who told this pastor my problems?” Everything he mentioned was exactly what I was going through.

So I challenged God: if He truly existed I wanted to be healed, otherwise, if nothing happened, I would no longer believe He existed. But if He healed me, I would be faithful to Him all the days of my life.

What I felt was very beautiful, an inexplicable Peace. The panic I felt disappeared at that very moment; it was as if I was levitating. I began to glorify the Name of the Lord Jesus, the One who until now has and does wonders in my life and my family. My husband is also with me in the Faith, we’re just missing my son and my daughter, but I’m sure they will soon be serving the Lord Jesus.

There was a song by Jota Neto that marked my second visit to the Universal Church. The lyrics were what I was experiencing in my life. But, thank God, He saved me.

Ansiedade

Veja o que o Senhor Jesus falou a Seus discípulos: Por isso, vos digo: não andeis ansiosos pela vossa vida, quanto ao que haveis de comer ou beber; nem pelo vosso corpo, quanto ao que haveis de vestir. Mateus 6.25

O alimento é importante para a vida, mas o Espírito Santo é essencial para ela. A roupa é importante para o corpo, mas o Espírito Santo é essencial para ele. Uma coisa é estar vivo e outra coisa é ter vida. E o Espírito Santo traz vida a quem está vivo. A roupa cobre o corpo protegendo-o do frio, do calor, do vento, mas não pode protegê-lo do mal. Então, de que adianta ter um corpo bonito e bem vestido, mas estar desprotegido por não ter o Espírito do Deus Altíssimo como Morador deste corpo?

O Senhor Jesus, vendo a preocupação das pessoas em atenderem às suas necessidades físicas (que não deixam de ser importantes), mostrou o que realmente é essencial ao ser humano quando disse: Buscai, pois, em primeiro lugar, o Seu reino e a Sua Justiça, e todas estas coisas vos serão acrescentadas. Mateus 6.33

Este reino está dentro de nós e de todos os que foram possuídos pelo Espírito Santo, e quer estar dentro de você. Se por conta de ter as coisas materiais você fez o que fez, o que você seria capaz de fazer para ter o Espírito Santo?

Nada nesta vida, material ou espiritual, pode ser alcançado sem sacrifício. Um exemplo é a parábola do tesouro oculto no campo. O homem que achou o tesouro tinha muitas posses, e elas não vieram a ele de “mão beijada”. Ele teve que sacrificar para tê-las. Mas quando encontrou O Tesouro, ele entendeu que para ter “Aquele Tesouro”, que simboliza o Espírito Santo, ele teria que abrir mão de tudo o que havia conquistado por meio de sacrifício. Sacrificando, assim, ainda mais.

The most famous witchdoctor Brazil

My name is Fabiano Jacob, and at the age of 15 I was the most famous witchdoctor in Brazil (known as MillenniuM), with two books published by Madras and a DVD on the subject, registered in Ancine.

I taught thousands of workshops, lectures, courses; I treated thousands of people and, erroneously, believed to be working on behalf of Good, since I “freed” people of demons, witchcraft, etc. But today I understand this was just another one of the devil’s tricks.

I am involved in politics; I ran for councilor and, recently, for congressman, where I received 5,000 votes here in Rio de Janeiro, without any sort of campaign. I didn’t invest in a campaign because I am currently suffering a brutal political persecution that led to me having to sustain the 200 children at my nursery here in the favela of Dende. This happened last year, and I received no help from city hall.

Ever since I decided to turn away from that deceptive lifestyle and begin seeking the One True God, I have been passing through the greatest desert of my life.

But now I know in my heart what is my destiny, which is to serve the Almighty God, Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit.

I am thankful for a modest pastor… Even though I had a privileged education, owned several businesses, including the largest insurance group in Latin America and spoke 3 languages, I found true wisdom in the pastor whose been helping and guiding me, and showed me the true Word of God.

That’s right, I found myself in a small Universal Church! In the favela, in a fixed up garage, but where the Word of God flows with the force of a thousand armies!

I made sure to send you this email because there are three special reasons you should rejoice:

1- a former servant of the devil (though I did not know what I did was wrong) converted and accepted the Light of God with the help of the Universal Church.
2- this new man wants to serve God, to surrender to the work of the Lord.
3- there is a humble, serious, true man of God in the Dende favela. The Church is more than well represented by Pastor Filipi Michel.

I thank the Almighty God for giving me a new life, and you who, with your faith, motivate and give direction to the Church of the LIVING Christ… And with it, save millions of souls and lives.

May you always be blessed!

Fabiano Jacob
