This is Brother Guy Manuel and his testimony of what God has done in his life: Hello; this is my testimony of what God has done in my life. First I will tell a little of my life. I was born in Ville Platte Louisiana; a small southern town of the state. As a child I remember my dad was a beer salesman, and my mom was a housekeeper. I have two brothers and one sister. We were not very wealthy compared to this countries standards. My family and I were people who loved to have fun. Drinking and partying were part of this fun. Of course, Ville Platte was known for it's people to go out and enjoy their lives to their fullest. I had a few friends who died because of this passion. Drinking and driving does not go too well together, but as a young man living around friends and people I knew, I seen much of this going on, and did myself. I was raised in a home who believed in religion. We would go to mass on Sunday or Saturday and participate in the service. Then after church we went about to do whatever we pleased to do. Going out in this world and doing whatever sin there was. You see I believed in Jesus, but didn't know Jesus. I finished school and finished a trade course of electronics. When I was twenty four years old I opened my own business, a retail market and grocery establishment. I started it from the ground up and did very well. Even was shown on the PBS show John Folse. About three years after I opened my first business, I opened a second one. I was working seven days a week, putting about twelve hours a day just at the stores. The years I was working I had only taken off two days a year, Easter and Christmas. My goal was to have a chain of stores. My heart was upon money and making a name in this world. I had a young worker named Abram O'Conner; you might recognize his name from the web page; He and I would talk about the Word of God. You see he grew up in a home whose dad was a Pentecostal preacher; so Abram knew the Word somewhat well, compared to me. Well about two years of discussing the Word of God I decided to begin to search the Bible myself. This was the beginning of the Holy Spirit drawing me to God. During these two years God used His Word, many people and circumstances to reveal Himself to me. I began to see that my life was not where He wanted me to be. Well Abram Oconner was having troubles himself at that time in his life. You see we discussed the bible but at the time he was not serving God himself. Well about two years after studying the scriptures, something happened that really made me see the reality and power of God. One early morning about six a.m. Abram walked into the store, and I saw on his face something that was strange; peace. It is hard to explain it, but you see I worked with this young man for four years, and I saw a rebellious, angry, sad young man. But that morning all of this was gone from his life. He did not speak one word to me; He sat down and I asked him what happened to him. He told me he got saved that night. Well for about a month I seen a change in this young man that I never seen before. I knew he was not doing it on his own but it had to be by the power of God. At that time I never been so hungry for God than I had before. I searched to go to a church that preached the Word of God. Then one day Abram invited me to go to a meeting they were having where he attended church. It was about thirty miles where I lived; and I would have to close the store early; but that didn't stop me. That night I went and heard preaching that I was not familiar with. But it made me more hungry for God. I went back, and on the third visit, the preacher gave an invitation of salvation. I knew what I wanted, and that is what I wanted. I did not hesitate to go up at the alter, kneel and surrender my miserable life to Jesus. And surely as I did, God revealed Himself to me like He never did before. I never felt so much peace and joy, as I did when Jesus came into my life that summer night. Well on June 12,1994 Guy Manuel was born again, a new creature, born of the Spirit through faith in Jesus Christ. A week later I received the baptism of the Holy Spirit, and from then on God has been teaching me much of who He is. He has called me into the ministry to give what He has given me. I now serve Him full-time; since January 1,1996. I myself have a street ministry; and also go to the hospitals and have gone to the prisons to preach the gospel. I preach to whosoever will hear. I have a burden for those who are deceived in religion. I myself was at one time, and know that God can reveal truth to us. We need a personal relationship with Jesus daily, and not just religion. His Word tells us that God desires obedience over sacrifice. People believe that as long as they go to a church and belong to an organization, they are right in God's eyes, but that is far from the truth. We who believe are His children and He wants us to come to Him as children come to a caring loving Father. My prayer for you is that you come to the full knowledge of Jesus Christ and His righteousness, that you might come to the faith of salvation. I love you with the Love of Christ. Guy Manuel
