Personal Testimony of Jeremy Fox

When I left the church at the age of 16, I didn’t know what was lying ahead in this journey called life. I remember thinking; life is going to be different! I remember thinking; I was stepping into a new part of my life. The devil had painted a picture for me that I could have happiness and I could be free to do what I wanted, if I just gave up! Before I knew it, I was trading freedom for bondage, I was trading peace for comfort in sin, and I was trading joy for sorrow.  I was living a life that I thought at that time, was just “normal”. I remember the very first time I walked into a gay bar, it felt right, and it felt like the missing piece to this “happiness” that the devil painted.  I started getting more involved into the lifestyle. I volunteered my time to try to help people accept this lifestyle that so many are dealing with. From marching in gay pride parades, and being a part of committees /groups, to being a huge advocate for the LGBT community, I thought this is what I was meant to do.

BUT God had other plans for my life.

On September 30th 2018, almost 13 years later, I walked back into my home church where I grew up, Apostolic Lighthouse Church of Dayton, OH knowing that day was going to be different. A little over a month before September 30th, 2018, I had a dream and I could see myself shouting and worshipping in the church I grew up in. You see, the devil had me believing that God could not deliver, that I went too far in sin that God forgot about me. But little did the devil know, God’s plan for my life. During service, I felt the pull to go to the altar and I remember thinking "it's either now or never".  I stepped out of my seat and walked up to the altar knowing I just needed a touch from God. I remember lifting my hands and tears rolling down my face and God refilled me with Holy Ghost! I remember feeling different, I felt free! God delivered me instantly that day from years of hurt, and confusion. I was baptized in Jesus Name (according to Acts 2:38) when I was 5, and on September 30th, 2018 I went down in the precious Name of Jesus once again!  Don’t think God doesn’t deliver from homosexuality, because I am walking proof that God DOES deliver!  No matter what you have done, what sin you have committed, God still LOVES you! The devil will make you believe that you have gone too far, but God’s mercy never runs out and Gods mercy endureth forever. Psalms 118:1- “ O give thanks unto the Lord; for he is good: because his mercy endureth for ever.” What the devil meant for evil God turned around and made good out of it. Genesis 50:20 - “ But as for you, ye thought evil against me; but God meant it unto good, to bring to pass, as it is this day, to save much people alive.”

God died on the cross for ALL sins. He thought about you and I when he was hanging on the cross. He didn’t single any sin out, He didn’t say one sin is greater than the other, but he died for ALL! I’m so thankful for the Holy Ghost to combat the enemy and stand up to the voice of our cultural who has twisted the minds of people.  I give all of the praise and honor to God for giving me another opportunity to serve Him! I am also thankful for my Parents, Pastor, Pastors Wife, and my Church of which never stopped praying for me! If you know someone going through this, KEEP praying, KEEP fasting and display a tremendous amount of patience. I promise God will start to move. Keep the door of communication open and let them feel the unconditional love.

Thank you Jesus! In your face devil! You lost once again.
