My Testimony: I am writing this in response to the instructions of the Holy Spirit. Its just to Glorify the LORD.

My name is Naveen Kumar Lankadasari and I was born in a Hindu family. I still remember going to temples along with my friends. A man of God came to our home and he sang a song and listening to it my dad gave his life to the Lord Jesus. Then we moved to be the sexton of the church that was what god planned for us. He grew up in the church all through our lives but I never gave my life to Jesus. I was very active in all the bible related activities and rose to fame but no Jesus in my life. Then in the Sunday school when my teacher explained about how Jesus came to this earth and died for me on the cross, tears rolled down my eyes, I have read this story of Jesus many times and I heard about it many times but nothing happened and now there is something happening to me in this small Sunday school room and I gave my life to Jesus. Then I was back to school and back to the earthly desires. Lust of the flesh, lust of the eye and the pride of life ruled me and I was back from Christ and fell into the hands of devil. I was leading a sinful life, did all kinds of nasty things, ugliness ruled my mind and there was not even a single character of Christianity left in me. I used to wander on the roads in order to fulfill my desires but no satisfaction. Bad thoughts, downtroddenness, immorality, ruled me and I was lost never to be regained back. In spite of this I used to go to church regularly take part in everything and was held in the same fame. Darkness was over me, my eyes were covered not knowing what the truth, and totally away from the LORD. Even then God was very gracious to me, he never left me, and I was good in my studies but a zero in spiritual level. Every time I use to hear a voice saying My Beloved Son, Naveen come to me.many times I looked back to see who it was but I saw now. I haunted me but I was clueless to who it was. I have a very bad habit of reading books and God used that habit of mine to turn me back to him. I started reading books of the great men of GOD that talked to the LORD face to face..they used to have communion with the LORDThey used to spend time with the LORDLORD used to come to them to talk to them, they always had GOD on their side..they used to Talk face to face to the LORD JESUS and get answers for the needs of the people and they were used mightily by the lord. The spirit in me used to stir me when I read those books, my blood was hot and burning and then I decided if it is possible with them to talk to him face to face then It is possible for me also to talk to him.

But how to talk to him..thanks to the knowledge god has given me in all the past years of mine where I read the word of GOD thoroughly and I knew the answer it was through the HOLY Spirit. I prayed for almost 4 years for the HOLY Spirit, got mad at it, i have spent many sleepless nights just to see the LORD Jesus and to get filled by the HOLY Spirit. The desire in me got increased day by day and I grew restless, spending hours of my valuable time in prayer for the spirit of GOD. At last on December 28 2009, he filled me immeasurably and I was overflowing in the Spirit. What a lovely experience, since then there was no look back in my life and I was victorious in every area of my life. Exactly after five months it was on May 29th 2010, as I was praying the spirit of the LORD filled me and he opened my spiritual eyes and I saw the Wonderful, Loving Face of JESUS, radiating with brightness. It was awesome, he was wonderful and guess what my life totally changed and the change was instant. I am writing this just to glorify the LORD Jesus and to testify what he has done in my life. If he can change a hard hearted man like me, he can change you also. I was very adamant, stubborn but he makes all the difference. Trust in him and enjoy the life with JESUS CHRIST. O taste and see that the LORD is Good.
