At The Church In Trinity As The Wrapped For The 21 Days Of Prayer & Fasting Comes To A Close And It’s Officially Over Until The New Year Approaches, But Anyway This Miracle Sunday Will Be An Absolutely Eventful One Where
It Comes To Three Or More People Sharing Their Testimonies It Don’t Matter Either Way, As Long They Are Doing It For The Love Of Jesus.
As The 21 Days Of Prayer & Fasting Comes To A Close, Until The New Year Comes
Approaching Us In 2026 Two Thousand & Twenty Six, The Church Was Jam Packed And Many People Were Singing Through The Words Of What The Worshipers Are Singing.
The “More Than Able” Song Was Sing By No Other Than Ashley Jordan Reneé, Sienna Michele, Yulissa J. Liriano & Zoë Parrish During The “Miracle Sunday” Segment, And The People Who Got Up On Stage Are Ezra Freeman, Jeff Saravia, London Apple, Lia Barcacel & Esmy Siluany.
Ezra Freeman Start Us Off With Her Testimony
“Hey, hello? Oh yay, okay. Hello church, I hi, I am Ezra Freeman and I've been going to Trinity for two years now. And at this point I am more likely to fasten my seat belt at the mention of twenty one days of prayer and fasting than I am when a flight is about to take off. And I'm kidding, but I'm really not kidding. Prayer and fasting has consistently shocked me, humbled me and left me amazed at God's faithfulness. But I cannot talk about these last twenty one days without talking about my experiences fasting leading up to it. Trinity has made me a fasting fanatic because the Holy Spirit just moves when you make room. Leading up to my baptism in June, I decided to do a seven day fast. I decided to do it on my own and during that fast I got selected for a housing lottery apartment that seemed to be on by my wildest dreams, right? That is so good. God's faithfulness was felt and I knew it was gonna be a long process, but I was prepared for that. So I got baptized and I was filled with faith that it would all work out according to his plan in that apartment though. So going into the last September fast, I was also expecting to get engaged to someone that I thought at the time was absolutely perfect for me and I am so grateful that I wrote down my prayers in the Bible app. Alright, because I can look back and I can see in my prayers that the day before the fast I surrendered my relationship to God. I said Lord have your way I'm fasting, you know you got this I'm, tuned in and during this fast when I was expecting to get engaged and married, because I go to Trinity, uh my mom got sick my, perfect family started to have issues and out of nowhere, a matter of months before I was expecting to get married, my relationship ended. But God set it up in a way that I knew it was from him, but I don't wanna sugar coat this I, was heartbroken I, was in the trenches and I was filled with a real deep pain. I could not get through a single day without sobbing, but in my sobs on the floor Jesus met me. And the Holy Spirit revealed to me in this fast that he was pruning three areas of my life that I was always trying to control. I have always been someone trying to control my parents' health, I wanted to protect them from anything going around. I was trying to hold on to this narrative that my family was perfect and I have this perfect easy relationship with my siblings and trying to give God the glory for that. And I also was trying to manipulate the fruits of my fast into getting engaged, but to the wrong person. But praise God that he does not let that happen, right? So in that same fast I'm in my brokenness, I'm still in the Word, I'm still joining the prayer calls, I'm in like Cuba at this point on a cruise ship, but I'm still showing up and I got the final approvement approval for my apartment, which I am overjoyed to say and that I am living in now, yes. And I'm living in it by myself, it's not at all what I pictured, but it is exactly what God intended especially in this time and in these circumstances. So this all happened in September fast and going into this fast I've been praying for career breakthrough and a full time job after years of freelancing. And again I didn't even realize until I was writing this testimony last night, but I was trying to control the results. I really was I should trust God by now, right? But I was still trying to control it. I knew that I had a second interview for a job that I basically thought I had in the bag and I knew that interview was on the second day of the fast. And I'm like okay God this is perfect, we're gonna glorify your name, I'm gonna get this job during the twenty one days of prayer and that's gonna be my testimony. wrong. Do you know how hilarious God is, I have five rounds of interviews for this job that really only needed one and, I'm like God, what are you doing, you know we only have twenty one days we gotta get this going, I wanna give the glory to you, but there's no time, and what do you know that last week, in the last in a final hour what it felt like where I'm like okay they scheduled an interview but, it's in two weeks, the print of fasting is gonna be over? I got an invitation, what felt to me like it was out of nowhere to meet the president of my home country in Eastern Europe, which is in civil war right now. And I almost didn't go, because I did not wanna miss the last Wednesday night prayer night, but I spoke to three people who are actually all in the front row right now, I talked to Pastor Rex, Jasmine and Pastor Kristen, and they said “Ezra, this is your Esther moment, this is why you're fasting, you have to go.” And I was floored, I went to meet with the president and I got offered not one, but two full time jobs. God is so good and I almost miss it, I really almost miss it, He's so good. This ultimately redirected me to what feels like is my Christ mission, and this is not to say that I might not still get that first job that I'm still interviewing for over the next two weeks, but God is faithful, and once again, He has just blown my mind in showing me the mosaic that He intends to create with the broken pieces of my plans. It's so much more beautiful than I ever could have dreamed it to be, and church, He did it for me, and He will absolutely do it for you.”
Next Up Jeff Saravia As It Was His Turned
To Share His Testimony
“My Name is Jeff, You probably know me from having a camera in your face and asking you for a photo, I can tell by those chuckles I know a lot of you. Um so I wrestled with sharing my testimony because my personal belief is that at church all attention and glory should be to God. And I also dislike attention, hence why I prefer being behind the camera. Uh, but I prayed about sharing my testimony and I feel that God would approve of me sharing this with y'all with the following in mind. I share this testimony because I want all the glory to go to God. Wednesday January eighth was a normal busy day for me uh but I was driving to work in pain. Uh my right ankle had been bothering me for a couple weeks and I was wondering how I was gonna get through not just the day but my workout class later that evening. And while I struggled to walk the entire day, I'd decided to get comfortable with the pain. I had chosen not to pray that way because I've always had this thinking that problems like these are too small for God to be bothered with. Thus in my usual practice I soldiered on. I got to prayer at night that evening in some excruciating pain, but even then still pushed on. And when the time came when Pastor Taylor called for those struggling with bodily pain to raise their hands, I wanted to raise mine, but I felt conviction, conviction in the form of thinking how could I justify asking for healing on something so small and if we're being honest something I probably caused with the luxury of personal training. But luckily I ended up raising my hand and as the entire Trinity community wonderfully prayed over me for healing, I resented myself. I spent the entire moment asking God for forgiveness, scorning myself for wasting precious prayer on something as trivial as the pain in my right ankle. I thought my pain was not worthy and not worth the trouble in comparison to others' pain. Suddenly when the prayer was over, that excruciating pain in my right ankle was gone. I mean gone. Like non-existent, like I had dreamt it or made it up. At one point I tried slamming my right foot several times just to bring that pain back, bring that pain back. Um but at that moment I knew God had healed me and I was floored. I was scared. I was terrified of one truth that was blatantly told to me in that moment, God's love and divinity is almighty. I'm sharing this miracle with y'all because I promised God that I would only share it to help remind you of two things. No prob no problem you have is either too small or unworthy of God's attention. And God calls us to put our faith in Him and be a representation of His love in this world. Before my miracle I did not believe that God should trouble himself with my little problem but, he did. God did so because that's the divinity and expansiveness of his love Um. your problems are not too small for God and you are worthy of his help no matter what. If you ever doubt this, remember the divinity of God's love and how inclusive it is. God took me to school that evening uh reminding me of a lesson that the power of his love knows no bounds. If I'm gonna be a true Christian man and true follower of God, I must strive to lean into Him no matter what and be a representation of His love. I pray that you strive to be a representation of His love too. Love not only for those that it's comfortable for you to love, but those who just like my right ankle are uncomfortable to love. God calls us to be faithful and to love.”
Next Up Is London Apple Turn As He Shares The Story About Josephine’s Son
“On January 2nd, Josephine's son Andrew woke up with suddenly very blurry vision and a splitting headache. He went on his day assuming he just took the glasses. Two days later not only was his vision blurry, but black and white. This is when he started to worry. Josephine and his son quickly went to an eye doctor, and he was treated as an emergency case. The doctor did not know how to diagnose the problem. They were both rushed to the hospital for more testing. Some doctors shared it might be something behind his eye. However, even after the M.R.I. and the neurologist test, there were different diagnoses of what it could be. Josephine began praying that the Lord might be on her son's side. The doctors landed on the conclusion that Andrew's vision might never come back, and if it did it would consist of six months of one year of delayed vision and multiple medicine prescriptions. But what do you know? God is so good and right on time. On January 12th, in the middle of the night, her son's vision was fully restored and clear. Josephine praises God a lot louder now. The Lord did a miracle for Josephine's son, and if God can do it for Andrew, he can do it for you too.“
Next Up Is Lia Barcacel Turn To Share Her Testimony
“Hi, my name is Lia. Um I found Trinity on February twenty twenty four January, twenty twenty four I, lost my grandma on my dad's side. And that same week I had to break up my engagement to the father of my daughter. And can I tell you that that week that I wasn't fun to be around back then I. was very depressed I. had to figure out how to be a single mom and provide for my daughter at twenty two years old. This twenty one days old prayer was a challenge. On day one I wrote my prayer list and I felt God saying that what I wrote wasn't what he wanted me to write. I felt him saying I am a father and the things that you wrote about I will provide without you even asking for them. So I had to start my list all over again. Starting January my grandpa got really sick and I just kept imagining the worst. But God kept telling me to praise him and it was very hard. Last Wednesday prayer night my aunt had to fly to the yard to take care of my grandparents. My mom's car broke down and I had no one to come and help me with my daughter who's two. Um I still went and I can say that I'm really glad that I did. That Wednesday prayer night I was filled with the Holy Spirit. I felt him embrace me and how everything was just gonna fall into place. I got baptized by the Holy Spirit and from the first time ever I prayed in tongues. It was something that I had on my prayer list. On my prayer list I was also praying for a new job in my field and I got one on Thursday. I pray for salvation for my uncle and my brother, and they're not safe yet, but my brother is right there, and my uncle is asking me questions. I pray for salvation for my daughter's father, and he randomly sent me a picture of him reading the Bible. I pray for godly relationships, and I am surrounded by such an amazing group of godly women that love my baby like theirs. And one of the last things that I was praying for was a new car, and after being so faithful, I even forgot that this was on my prayer list. Um but on Friday, God did what I thought was impossible, and he blessed me with a car. Everything I pray for God has given me, and I just feel his voice telling me that he will redeem me, and that everything that I've been through he's gonna use to bless me. If he did it for me, how much more it can he do for you? With all of the faith in a room what the Lord can do, what the Lord can do And it's gonna happen Just. let the waiting go He's gonna move He's gonna move Can you admit? You're the faith in the room what the Lord can do What. the Lord can do And. it's gonna happen Just. let the waiting go It's gonna happen Just. let the waiting go your whole world.”
And Finally And Certainly Not Least It Was Esmy Siluany Turn To Share Her Testimony
“Hi, my name is Esmy and twelve years ago, while I was giving birth to my son, I had complications. It left me with horrible nerve damage on my left side favouring both in my neck, my arm and my rib cage, and the worst anxiety you could ever imagine. I never asked God to heal me, I didn't think it was important to him and I didn't think that he actually would. I would frequently speak with God but only to complain and argue with him asking, why would you allow this to happen to me. So my relationship with him? It through dissonance but something's deep inside. It's still longed for him. When twenty one days of fasting began, I said I'll give it a try, God, let's see. The first day of my fast I was driving to get some coffee I, said God, I don't think it's gonna happen I. don't know if you can't Right. at that moment I began to laugh. I thought it was coming from me but, then it became uncontrollable. So I realized it was the Holy Spirit laughing through me. I heard God's voice He, said look, around you look, at the skies the, trees the, birds, and you think this is too hard for me, right then I said Lord, forgive me I forgot who, you are. That Wednesday we had our first prayer service, God, use Pastor Kristen to call someone who had been dealing with pain on their left side around their rib cage. I went up for prayer because, that was me. I remember being shocked I said God do, you see me? After that prayer I, remember God healed my anxiety that night and my faith increased. My prayer changed. I began praying to God, believing him from my miracle. That Friday was my birthday. My husband's children m my husband's children and I were at the movies. Suddenly I laid my head back in the movie seat and felt a complete relief on my left side. It happened all of a sudden Twelve. years of pain and discomfort, gone. Just like it was h discomfort Gone. just like that. I felt like God told me, happy birthday my daughter. The only thing that changed was my heart posture and faith in God. I wonder what would happen if we obeyed James four eight, draw near to God and he would draw near to you. I wonder what would happen if we took Jeremiah twenty nine eleven everywhere we went. So I know the plans I have for you declares the Lord. Plans surprise for you and not harm you.”
