My name is Farah, 18 years old, born and brought up in a staunch Musl__m family.
My father and mother were orthodox Musl__ms. I was brought up under Isl--mic rules and regulations. I have an elder brother and sister.
Before my birth I went through great rejection. Many times my parents tried to abort me because I was an unwanted child. But the Almighty Lord Jesus Christ saved me.
I was very close to my father. One day he bought a Christian calendar with Jesus’ photo on it and [jokingly] said,” He is your God.” Amazing are his miracles. At the age of 7 I started to worship an unknown, unnamed God.
My father died when I was 10 years old. He was my world, so I was completely broken by his sudden death. People around me showed great sympathy towards me which was fake; they never failed calling me an “orphan.” My friends, they too started calling me orphan…this word was like hell for me.
Then one day, during school assembly my school principal read a verse from the Holy Bible…which says “I will never forsake you, nor I will leave you orphans.” After the assembly was over I went to my principal and asked for the person who said these words. He told me that our true Lord JESUS CHRIST had said these words. He gave me a New Testament. That day for the first time I come to know about JESUS CHRIST.
What a change in my life………!
Slowly and gradually I started to attend a nearby Church. I never prayed seriously but for the first time I prayed for our financial problem and the very next day we received our father’s due salary. I found a great change in my life. I started to forgive people, I started to love everyone around me, my heart was filled with incredible joy. The love of JESUS in me changed my world.
As I was growing in my passion for Jesus and also growing in my life, my family soon realized my seriousness for Jesus Christ. My parents and relatives did their best to stop me from following JESUS. My Bible was burned, my body was burned, but I was saved. I went through all kinds of vulgar and physical abuse [including being hit by a car causing permanent injury]. No one helped me in my studies. But look at the grace of My Jehovah; my school principal sponsored me.
Many Musl__m leaders were against me. I used to have long arguments with them. They always failed to convince me. There was hate all around me. My own people acted as my foes. Many nights I slept with an empty stomach. And a time came when I was in great danger, I sought for help. And that time my Saviour rescued me.
JESUS IS THE ANSWER FOR THE WORLD TODAY…..
My family still practices Isl--m. They still refuse Jesus. But the Lord is answering my prayers. My mother is now believing in prayers. Today I stand as a firm believer. I am working with Pastor Joshua and Evangelist Simon has been a great help to me. They are training me for further ministry. And now I am reaching the unreached with a great model of The Elijah Challenge ministry. I thank the Lord JESUS CHRIST for using me for HIS KINGDOM.MY MESSAGE…….
I feel pity for those ignorant people who deny JESUS, especially for young Musl__ms who called themselves “jihadies.” I want to bring revolution in “jihad” and prayerfully I have started ministry among young Musl__m women.Please pray for me that I may lead many souls to HIS Kingdom.
Luke 10:9 "Heal the sick who are there and tell them, 'The kingdom of God is near you.’"
