Gilbert Sanchez's Testimony

I have attended Reigning Glory Church for the past 10 months or so. During the past year the Lord has been calling me to a bigger commitment on a larger scale, but I did not want to move.  My wife, Lucy, and I had been attending other churches, and we felt out of place because the Lord was calling us to a greater relationship with him then what we had.  I was doing fine, really no commitment to anyone. I was paying my tithes, and just moving on with my life. My spirit wanted more, but my flesh did not.  As we all know the Holy Spirit always wants more of God. 

I have been a Christian for the last 20 years, working with pastors side by side.  Just like so many other Christians who think they are working for God, but in reality I was working for man. Working for every reason you might have, but not God.  For the last 5 years, I had been attending churches, listening to the sermon, teaching, but not getting close to the pastor or their inner circle. I just wanted to be left alone.

I can see it more clearly now. As I look back to when God was taking so many things, our home, friends, status, it felt like God was abandoning us. In reality he was saving me from my own-self.

I had talked to my wife and said that I was not going back.  It was then that the Holy Spirit asked me a question. Why don’t you want to go to Reigning Glory Church?  When my wife had asked me that question I dismissed it with no problem, but when the Holy Spirit asked I could not ignore the question. I did not even realize that it was the same question that my wife had asked until later.  Why? The most honest answer I had was, if I went to Reigning Glory Church God would require something from me and I did not want to pay that price. You see I could go to any other church and the pastor would not require anything from me.  That same night I happened to see a short clip of Billy Graham. He said "What does picking up the cross mean to you? What does it actually mean?" It was then that I realized, how I could say I was a Christian when in fact I was not.  I have taken pride in being a firefighter all my life, and would question anyone who dare say he was a firefighter if I knew he was not.  I know what it takes to be a firefighter:  going inside a burning building where very few dare to go, risking everything.  I’m also aware of those who call themselves firefighters, but never put themselves in danger. It was then that it hit me straight in the face.  I was one of those who people say they have picked up the cross, but in reality I never have. I was not who I said I was. I went to my knees and ask God to forgive me.

During this past year at Reigning Glory Church, I have absorbed everything Pastor LaCricia has said. I know there is something different here at Reigning Glory Church. The Spirit of God is truly in this place. I no longer think with the same carnal mentality. It takes great effort to have the mind of Christ. It takes discipline in your thinking, in your prayer life, even, in your diet, and everyday living. I have grown tremendously and I am a different person. I am more than blessed to have my eyes open and a clear vision for my life.

God has called me to do a great work for him at Reigning Glory Church. It is through my obedience to God and my pastor that it will be accomplished.

Psalm 39:3 “He has put a new song in my mouth."

Michael Valero's Testimony

After a lengthy time of frustration and uncertainty with my current circumstances, I decided to pray and ask the Lord some very pointed and specific questions regarding my situation.  I had been in Houston on temporary assignment since April 14, 2002.  I was away from my home, my family, and all that was familiar to me.  Even though I had not seen my wife for almost a month, she was now here visiting with me.  Larrine’s presence helped, but did not relieve me of this seemingly relentless “cave experience” that I was dealing with.  I felt so alone and abandoned. 

On a Thursday night, about 10:00 o’clock, from a very discouraged and disappointed heart, I felt it was time.  I was very open, direct, frank, and honest.  I asked the Lord to hear my prayer and answer me definitively; not with “maybe that was the Lord, or maybe He was speaking about this, or maybe not”.  I didn’t want an answer that was not clear and decisive… and I didn’t limit the Lord as to how He might answer, I just wanted to hear from Him.  I could relate to how King David felt when he prayed, “Can I praise you from Sheoul”?  I really thought I was almost there.

Larrine knelt with me, and we joined our hands and hearts before Him and I prayed aloud as I voiced my petition.  I reminded the Lord that I was His adopted son through Jesus and the Cross, and I felt that gave me the right to know the answers to my questions that so burned in my heart...

Elizabeth Gonzales' Testimony

My name is Elizabeth Gonzales and the first time I came into Pastor LaCricia service, she called me out and told me “The Lord is healing you this night.”  I had a lump on my neck, a goiter.  By the time the service was over that night, the goiter had completely disappeared.  I felt great!  I went back to my doctor after being ill with lupus for many months and to his surprise all the test came back negative!  It showed that there was no longer lupus in my body.  I gave Pastor LaCricia the paperwork of proof, stating that the lupus is completely gone after her prophetic word from GOD.  I received a miracle from the Lord!  I praise GOD for this Reigning Glory Church because Pastor LaCricia has such great insight as to what God wants to do for His people and she has power to speak it and it comes to pass.  I thank GOD for her.  She is a true prophetess of the Lord.  Many things she has said to me have come to pass.

Dorothy Edwards' Testimony

In 1990, I began to experience pain in my arms and hands.  I went to the doctor, who said that I had Corporal Tunnel Syndrome; she then did a blood test and said I had Osteoarthritis and a mild form of Rheumatoid Arthritis, which she prescribed two painkillers and muscle relaxer along with prescriptions to coat my stomach.  I went to another doctor and his diagnosis was the same.  I could not work effectively living on pain killers so I took myself off and decided to see a chiropractor that x-rayed my back and neck area, which showed degenerative bones in my neck area to what she called stage 2 and almost to stage 3 which is irreversible.  Meaning I had a large hole in my neck area where the bones were degenerating.  The doctor could only offer adjustments that would only slow down the process.  She started me out with coming in 3 times a week for 12 weeks, then twice a week for about nine weeks, and then I would go once a week.  All of this helped but only lasted temporarily.  Then I went to Reigning Glory Church and Pastor Hlavinka called for all who needed a healing to come forth and I went up and God healed me completely, no more pain.  Before God healed me people would say to me you look like you are always unhappy, and I was, because I lived with chronic pain, and now I am pain free!

The following testimony is an email sent to Pastor LaCricia after she ministered in Ottawa, Ontario Canada.

Dear Pastor LaCricia

Outstanding meeting in Ottawa

 It has changed my life forever.  I could not believe how much God surprised me during the three days you ministered in our city.  I was on the edge of divorcing my husband.  I was totally crushed and brokenhearted thinking I will never heal from this tragedy in my life; feeling like a total looser in front of God.  I was so paralyzed to serve God because I thought I was a disappointment to Him.  In all honesty, I was embarrassed to walk as a Christian.  This was really one of the lowest points of my life, but then came that wonderful prophetic word from God, directly from your beautiful serving heart.

After Friday’s meeting I was in a cloud of the presence of God, I felt His peace like never before. He has lifted me up to serve Him again.  I started to pray for the sick immediately after the meeting and I feel Him working while I'm praying

Wow, how I love God!  I'm excited to say, I'm back in the prison ministry, fired up to pray for the prisoners. Holy boldness and so much compassion are awakening in my heart for God's children. Oh, I almost forgot, my marriage is growing close to God again.  I have a renewed love for my husband and most importantly, my heart has been healed from all the horrible fighting we were doing before. Best of all, I feel really connected and encourage in my marriage since the meeting. God is a God that provides and heals and loves us.

Thank you so much for being a servant of God Pastor LaCricia.

I would love to see you again, go for lunch and pray for your needs, and your ministry, you sweetheart for Jesus.

I love you, Woman of Compassion
