My name is Sabah, I’m 23 years old, and I’m from Iraq, I love Christ very much. One day, I visited a page where a minister asked me what I knew about Christ. I replied, “He is a miracle from heaven, calls for love, and has performed many miracles.” She then shared the gospel message with me.
I struggled to understand how Christ could be both human and divine at the same time, and I had many questions. After she explained it to me, I told her that I loved Christ and that my soul belonged to him, even if outwardly it might not seem that way—because if I declared it openly, I would be at risk of being killed.
One day, I had a vision: there was a light in the sky, and a voice called out to me, saying that those who do not follow this light will perish. Then the vision disappeared. The minister helped me understand its meaning, and I told her that this light brought peace, security, and love to my heart. I prayed with her, saying:
“Dear God, I thank You for sending Your Only Son, Jesus Christ, to be crucified and to die for my sins. I believe that Jesus died on the cross, was buried, and rose victorious over death to grant me eternal life. I accept this in faith and acknowledge that Jesus is the only Lord of my life and my Savior. Please forgive me for all my sins and remove any other beliefs in my heart that do not align with Your holy word. Give me strength to live a new life in Christ, and I ask You to guide me in all the ways of life through Your Holy Spirit. Thank You, Lord, for the redemption You have given me through Your Son’s perfect work. Amen.”
