Minister Ordination

Minister Ordination

I am minister Paul and I hope to receive my minister ordination with Christian Leaders Alliance. I live in Connecticut. However, I was not born here in America. I was born and raised in Haiti, I migrated when I was about 24 or 25 years old. I have been a “good” person as far as I know of, but my ways were not good enough for Christ. I was a free spirit person but my mouth was not of Christ. I was on the go but my roads were never of Christ. Regardless of the love I had for God, my soul had a lack of knowledge and comprehension. Which caused me to make many mistakes. I used to go to ungodly places, like voodoo temples. Even if I was never going there to do what they were doing but I used to enjoy watching their ceremony. I used to go to carnivals, dancing to songs full of curse words and singing them. My heart was still not content. I was always thinking about God and the time as a child, I took my big brother’s Holy Bible to read almost every night. God used to whisper in my ears to turn and come to Him. However, my ears were too clogged up to listen, but I could feel his breath.

One year, I went to a carnival with friends and my brother. A fight broke out and shortly after that a gunfight. Everyone started running for their lives including myself. I fell to the ground, and just to run to safety, my brother put his foot on my back to save his life. Thankfully, after a few struggles, I managed to get up and run for safety. That day, we sat and talked about the whole situation. We joked, we laughed, and no one was mad at the other. Later on, as I got ready to go to bed, Jesus got me thinking uncontrollably. My mind was running like a machine and would not stop. I had to get on my knees to listen to my God. The next day, I was transformed into a totally different person. I started speaking productively, refraining myself from curses, I even did not want to sit with my friends listening to music that is not Gospel-like. My Lord was using me for His purposes.

A few months later, I went to a church and decided to stay there. Six months later, I was emerged in water baptism and from that time my Jesus has been using me for His kingdom. I have been to many evangelical missions, preaching the gospel and the wonderful journey of my Lord on earth. I have been tested and even ridiculed but my Lord kept me strong to keep going. I do not take God lightly and do not joke or play with His name. Yes, we are sinners but I do not condone nor back anyone who for fun pulls jokes involving God’s name. I said yes to follow my Lord and Savior nineteen years ago and I intend to do that until He calls me home.

May God abundantly bless all who read my story. May He richly empowered you with the Holy Ghost and bathe you with His mighty protection in the name of Jesus. Ministry is not easy, especially in this era. It’s getting darker and the devil is trying his best to shut us up. I refuse to let the stones speak in my place, we must preach and teach so we can bring the lost souls to our Lord. We must not grow weary, we must pray and let the Spirit take control. Many blessings! Thank you, Christian Leaders Institute and Christian Leaders Alliance, for this opportunity for ministry training and minister ordination.
