newbirththebook

16 year old, Rachel-Anna (writer also of "Grace To The Nations") has written this challenging and intriguing book called "The New Birth."“Sensing very strongly in her heart and spirit, Rachel-Anna earnestly desired to share this Word from God (when the time was right) with The Body of Christ.In doing so, she prays that God would reveal Himself to you at another dimension within your own life and being." The New Birth challenges you to take consecration, worship and your destiny to another intensity! Because of the demand on our lives now, Rachel-Anna encourages the Body of Christ to manifest like never before, through your life that we, together may change nations!----My Experience---I got saved when I was six years old but though my soul was saved, I still needed to be delivered and renewed in my mind.Because of my immaturity, I didn’t fully understand what salvation and deliverance truly meant until I began to experience it to the fullest. The change of my heart, spirit and mind was a process and a continual one at that. As I continued to stay focused on the Word, I realize the importance of truly understanding the significant occurrence (development) that had to take place. When I was young, I never longed in my heart to do the wrong thing. In fact my heart’s desire was to do what was right. My desire drove me to make the decision to give my life to the Lord. I was never one to envy someone else, but I can recall wanting to experience what others called “The Presence of God”. My heart was desperately longing for something that could free my inner spirit and bring me to that place where I didn’t worry. I was six years old, young and immature, but I still knew that there was something more to my life than going to church and playing games. The more I searched (looking in natural areas); I found no fulfillment in this earth. At first, I began to be upset and tired, but after seeing the change and dedication of my sister’s life (Faith), I knew that God and He alone was the One who could deliver me and fill that strong void. I was desperate for God (even though I didn’t know it). When I made that decision, I was literally determined to carry out my relationship with God. I stayed determined because I stayed desperate for God. Over the years, I have learned SO MUCH and it has caused me to see what is true and what is an illusion. While growing up (both naturally and spiritually), many attacks came to destroy all of my knowledge, courage, passion and determination to go after God and His Will for my life. Although I had an initial encounter/experience with God, I still needed to learn about my faith-walk and all the sacrifices that come with it. One important lesson that I had to understand was “The Dying Process.” In this process, I had to learn about dying to the flesh and making all of me available to the infilling of the Holy Spirit. When I turned eight years old, I was filled with the Holy Spirit. My calling was strong and at that point, I began to see the seriousness of knowing God to the point of manifestation through my life and my ways. Between the ages of nine and twelve, I started developing and realizing the need for God and the true anointing to live and not just power to lay hands or speak in tongues etc. Speaking in tongues for me was truly my private prayer language to God and no one else. After hearing my father, Bishop Lewis, speak in tongues on a continual basis, and sensing the power that followed his tongue and every Godly word that he said; I then realized that your tongue is not something to show off, but more so a weapon in disguise. Because of my continual consistency to sit under and study the Word, I am now where I am today. Not prideful or boastful, but still learning and growing.Yours truly,Rachel-Anna
