Testimony of Grace
A Journey of Repentance and Renewal
But the journey wasn’t without trials. In the process of life and ministry, Pastor Earnest became entangled in pride and compromise, neglecting his time with the Lord in prayer and fasting. These opened doors to poor choices, open door to the world, compromise, and sin. Everything went downhill in his life.
Multiple life accounts humbled Pastor Earnest to realize that there is no life without Jesus Christ. Either live for Christ 100% or don’t.
On one fine day in July 2024, he stepped down from pastoring when a message he had preached back in 2009 penetrated his soul and heart. The message was based on 2 Chronicles 7:14: “If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.”
The Word of God cut him so deep—to the bone and the marrow—and he felt the conviction so strong by the power of the Holy Spirit, realizing where he had fallen in his walk with the Lord.
Pastor Earnest began to practice what he preached. He stepped down from pastoring and declared to his church that he didn’t feel worthy to pastor anymore. He announced that he was going to seek the Lord with a repentant heart, humbling himself with fasting and prayer.
Pastor Earnest cried out to the Lord for mercy, forgiveness, help, and direction.
After one full year of seeking the Lord Jesus Christ with fasting and prayer, in August 2025, the Lord Jesus Christ appeared to him, showered him with grace and mercy, and restored his soul—Psalm 23:3: “He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.”
The Lord Jesus told him to launch back into ministry with the call that He had placed on Pastor Earnest’s life, with the promise from His Word: “For the gifts and calling of God are without repentance.” —Romans 11:29 (KJV)
After receiving the commission from the Lord Jesus, Pastor Earnest is now set on a mission—with a renewed heart, a renewed mind, and renewed strength and power. Putting aside all the things of the past, he has begun to rebuild the walls of the ministry that were damaged. He is now moving forward with the call that the Lord Jesus has placed on his life, empowered by the strength and power of the Holy Ghost.
He is planning to relaunch Breath of Life Worship Church by the year 2026.
“To Jesus be all the glory. Heartfelt thanks to the precious Holy Ghost who enables me to do the will of the Father in the name of His Precious Son, our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.”
