During the three weeks of revival meetings at the River, God rearranged many things in my heart. The very first meeting on Monday morning, God told me that I needed to tell my family what I went through during my preteen years. I’ve never told them how I used to be very depressed and how I hated my life. Many times I would cry at night thinking how I wanted to kill myself. At another morning service, I got in line to get prayed for. I fell under the power of God, and about an hour later I got up. During that hour on the floor, God’s power was rushing all over me. God told me that he was healing my heart. He told me that it wasn’t my fault. That I was an innocent victim of the devil’s schemes.
Many times I blamed myself for what happened. But God completely healed me. I was able to tell my family all about it, and I can already see that God is doing a work in our family. God has also been confirming many of the dreams that I have held in my heart for many years. Now I know that I know that I will be used in China to reach out to the girls who are in the brothels and stuck in the sex trafficking industry. One night after I got prayed for, I was laughing on the floor and then all of a sudden I started speaking in a new language.

If I had to describe the last three weeks of my life I would have to say freedom and breakthrough. The first week of RBI was amazing and very challenging at the same time. My body was physically pushed to its limit but my spirit was really pressing in to the presence of the Lord. Every single morning and afternoon was filled with landmark moments and encounters with precious Holy Spirit. The Lord dealt with me head on with some very serious and important areas of my life. I could literally feel the bondage of past hurts being lifted daily.
Our Father used every single pastor on staff to speak to me personally during every day of orientation. Reverend Puder ministered to my heart dearly, especially when describing his first thoughts about the gospel soul winning script. I had a very similar attitude myself and had prayed very hard for the Lord to give me peace and direction about it. Obedience and submission have been major themes of mine throughout this whole process. Priceless teachings and messages of honor and purity have forever pierced my heart and changed me radically. Just simply being in this atmosphere of the anointing alone has brought deliverance, healing, and restoration to my soul. I am forever changed and free of so much junk that was really hindering my walk. For this I am eternally grateful and thankful that the Lord has placed me here.

I came down here in the beginning of June to Tampa, Florida. I was at a point in life where I wanted a new beginning for myself. I was tired of seeing my school, church, friends, family and my own life fall apart with no hope that it will come together ever again. I got to the point where I did want to come in front of God repenting for my sins because I knew I sinned and think why would He ever forgive me. When Revival Week started for RBI, I never would have thought that God would radically change my life in one single week.
Every day the power of God would touch me and I would be stuck on the floor for a good while laughing. Then one night on a Thursday night service, I came up for a alter call for boldness and I was smacked to the floor by the power of God. God was taking out so many things out and dealing with so many things on my heart that I was weeping from every thing that ever hurt me, everything that I was ashamed of who I was. God dealt with so much in my heart that I was walking around the next day wondering who I was. I couldn’t remember the person I use to be. I asked Pastor John that day why I had felt this way. He told me, it was because God made me into a New Creation, a butterfly coming out of a cocoon nest. That day I knew I was a new creation in Christ, everything was passed away, and I became a new person. I never knew I have such freedom in Christ. God changed me so much in one week more than any Bible camp, missions trip, and any counseling have every done in my lifetime. God’s salvation has never been such a true gift till now. Praise God for he loved me first before I loved Him. Charity G.

At summer camp, with Pastors Allen and Kristin and the youth group August of 2010 God spoke to me and told me that my Rhema plans were not what he had for me. I had already gone to their college weekend and I was really trying to make it work so I could go there. God also informed me that I was going to go to the RSW. This past august at summer camp God confirmed his word again. The Fire of God touched me in a way it never has before. I literally felt fire all over my body and my face. I was screaming, crying and laughing all at the same time. While he was touching me he was showing me all the times in my life where the devil tried to steal my joy and how it DIDN’T work. He was showing me that I had victory in him. I knew from that night on that I was in the right place.
This RBI/RSW revival had been utterly life changing. God has really broken down walls I had no idea even existed. I now have an intense passion to be a radical giver. He has shown me how sewing and reaping REALLY works! On Thursday of the third week I gave my purse, my iPod and my electric guitar away as seed. I believed God for a laptop, a Mac Book specifically. On Sunday Dave Leszchek asked me to come out to the lobby and handed me his laptop which was exactly the laptop I had been believing God for! I was overwhelmed with joy and I just felt the love of God all over me. I was just blown away by his goodness. He provided for me exactly what I needed. He is so faithful.
I can’t wait to see what God has in store for me this year! It feels amazing to be doing the will of God and be directly in the center of what he has for me……Christa J.

I am seeing many great things happening during this Great Awakening event at the River Church. God is moving mightily among many people. I am being touched and renewed by this conference. This week my testimony was great in many ways. I have been seeing people in our church volunteering and helping in many different areas. For example, I went to the call center and it was exploding with phone calls. The phone was ringing off the hook. Our member were praying for people and people were getting healed, saved, set free and developing spiritually. Many people were asking for prayer for the fire of God in their life.
Pastor Rodney’s message and teachings were extremely well delivered and received. Pastor Rodney was talking about the history of Pentecost, and the cost associated for acquiring the anointing. The meetings are pivotal for the body of Christ in America, in order to advance and take ground for Jesus. We have to count the cost for eternity is at stake, because souls need to be saved. His power is his love for people; the cross is where we first come to Jesus. We need the Holy Spirit to go to the next level so we can receive power to be a witness for Jesus Christ! It’s amazing to see hundreds of churches coming on board with the Great Awakening and becoming Soul Savings Stations. We need to preach the message raw as possible to save people from a devil’s hell. -Daniel W

This week has been phenomenal as far as what is happening. People on the phones are getting saved, set free and healed when they call in to the broadcast. I was on the phones Tuesday when a woman called in and wanted her heavenly language. She had been baptized in the Holy Ghost for a month and wanted to speak in tongues since she did not have that yet. So I prayed with her and she received the baptism in the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues. She said she was hot and sweat was trickling down her back also her breathing was great.
She had said her breathing was labored when she called so when the Holy Spirit filled her she could breathe just fine. I then asked her what else could she do now that she could not do before? She had not mentioned if she needed healing for anything other then her breathing. She said I don’t know let me check and all of a sudden she began yelling my arm it is moving and I said awesome Jesus healed you. You don’t understand I was in a severe car accident in which my left side was paralyzed due to brain injury. My arm has been clamped to my side for years.
I am moving papers back and forth on the table and lifting envelopes. I had her tell what was happening to our call center supervisor who said it was awesome she was getting touched. When I took the phone back, I again asked her what else can you do that you could not do before? Again she answered, I don’t know let me see as I heard noise in the background and her yelling, “my leg! I am moving my leg.” It was a bit slow at first but it is moving. Then she yelled, “I am standing with no assistance!” Praise the Lord Jesus who heals even before it is asked for! She was crying and laughing explaining that she had to relearn so much after the accident and she got her arm and leg healed all when she called for her heavenly prayer language! -Shaunalee F.

The winter Camp meeting went really fast and was such a blessing mostly I would be out at work in the evening or when I came in I had to leave at 12pm, but catching up with the what was going on I sensed that the spirit of boldness was rekindled in me after seeing the 92 year old lady testifying seeing the strength in her surely God is no respecter of persons, the thing that really hit me most is how she put it that we need to reach out to people daily.
This week I was going to Wal-Mart during my lunch hour break, in a rush saw a woman cleaning the window as I was approaching the entrance my flesh was fighting against my spirit, but I overcame my fears shared with her that God loves her, she looked at me then she opened up as I asked if I would pray with her she was very pleased then she started weeping. As I was trying to inquire what was taking place, I found out that I was a confirmation that God loves her. I saw the Holy Spirit touch her there and then at the entrance. That gave me boldness to share with 2 others inside Wal-Mart and they gave their lives to Jesus. That made my day. –Geoffrey M.

This is a historic event that is happening at that The River of Tampa Bay Church. Lives are being touched and changed by the power of God. Churches across America are hitting the streets with the Gospel soul winning script. And are registering their totals on Revival.com and all across America thousands of people are being saved, healed, and set free. Every night hundreds of thousands are tuning in to watch the broadcast, and the Awakening is just beginning to pick up steam.
The prayer lines are ringing off the hook with testimonies of the power of God touching them in their homes. Also people are calling to receive the baptism of the Holy Spirit and fire. I am so amazed at what God is doing. Seeing God shake America with the fire of God. My life is forever changed God have put such a hunger on the inside see souls saved, In or schools, businesses, malls, governments. And other countries are starting to get involved and hitting their towns and cities leading people to Jesus. I have been in the meetings the past week on the phones taking calls and sitting in the services.
People don’t realize what is taking place. What God is doing is so much bigger than the River Church. It’s about the whole body of Christ coming together and turning the world upside down for Jesus and hitting every part of society. And the church getting our eyes off of ourselves and putting them on Jesus and what he wants us to do. And the power of God in the streets. And a lost and dying world coming to Jesus.-Steven H.

This has been a great week so far and I believe the Lord is going to do some awesome things here in just the next couple of days. Pastor Rodney has been preaching on the baptism of the Holy Ghost the last two services and they have been incredible. When you have the fire of the Holy Ghost living on the inside of you, you can’t help but tell people about Him everywhere you go. People will get saved, healed, and delivered when you’ve got the Deliverer burning I’m your heart.
Everywhere you go, people are either going to get sad, mad, or glad because of the conviction of the Holy Ghost that comes from preaching the good news of the gospel. Yesterday I went on the streets with a lady who came to the River Church to learn how to win souls more effectively. Well after only about an hour and a half, she led four people to the Lord which is more than some people do in a lifetime! She then came to church last night and gave her testimony to thousands of people watching on television. God is truly doing some amazing things through the Great Awakening and I am so appreciative to to be a part of it.-Kenneth C.

In the Last couple of days of the Great Awakening meetings, the Lord has been touching me, he has been striping things off of me. He has given me a revelation of his love for me. Years ago, I wanted to end my life but by his grace I’m still alive today. I’m so thankful that the Lord saved me for just a time as this. I know the Lord has so much more give. I’ve been praying for several things, and it has come to passed. I’ve seen people from other churches coming to the meetings and getting touch with the Fire of God. Their were people coming from far areas to get train up for soul winning and going back to reach the people in their areas. Many people call in around the world wanted the Fire of God and getting saved. It has been a blessing to be part of what God is doing around the world. –Nancy S.
I am so excited to be a part of the Great Awakening Tour that is happening at The River Tampa Bay Church! I have been able to be in the call center answering phones and taking prayer requests. It is amazing to see and be able to share in what is happening over the phone lines every night! We are seeing people come to salvation, become baptized in the Holy Ghost, and be healed right over the phone!! It is truly a blessing to be able to minister the fire of God to people and experience God’s children being touched and hear the change and hear the positive things that come out of the caller’s mouths after we pray. It’s seeing and hearing the hope be restored in their lives and them coming to the realization that God loves them and there is someone out there who will talk and pray with them and show them that they care. In a world that is lost and dying and crying out for something more, we are making a difference because we are standing behind the vision of Pastors Rodney and Adonica. I am blessed to be able to serve underneath a ministry such as theirs and it is truly humbling to be the vessel that God is using to reach His children. I am so glad that I am able to pray and agree with each person that calls and I encourage everyone to either attend the services at The River or to watch us Live on CTN at 7:30 pm EST. –Nicole M.
