Yes I was touched heavy by Gods hand at the revival in 2007.But the first time was on TV 15 years ago. Then the next time was at church in Greensboro that I go to in 2001.I was call out of my seat by Dr.Rodney Howard Browne he ask God to touch me and he did so. The hands of an angle touched me as I fell out in the Holly Ghost. Know body knows that I wanted to die because of a divorce that I was going through. How I prayed that I didn’t live to see the sun come up the next day. Yes I know that to be healed from a problem we might have In our body is great because I,ve been there to.But for me theres nothing like the healing of the heart. The touch of God that tells me that he loves me and the joy of the Holly Ghost. It means I want to live again and live it for Jesus.
Dear brother rodney, i have been very deeply touched by your ministry ,in fiji just by listening to the tape in which you are singing alleluia and in 1996 i was discouraged and given up in life and then the lord touched me in church as i was worshipping through the tape the lord touched me .i felt his hand around my and and my life has never been the same. iam today preaching in my country onthe love and the coming move of God and seen mighty things that the Lord is doing. yet i desire to hear and see what god has been doing through your ministry and haer your teachings , but it is a little hard to get in touch. i under stand all things cost money ,so i will be sowing as a partner both in your Australian and American offices. but could you please see if you think you could send me some teachings and what God is doing through your ministry. i thank God constantly for you and your ministry.

When i was watching some of your chronicles became drunk and some one turned a facet open and kept me drunk. When on the 17th of may 2007 i went to church to attend a praise meeting, i first started laughing and all of a sudden someone told me to drink or drown! I chose to drink. I am writing you this on the evening of May 17th 2007. i came home just 30 minutes ago and i am still drunk. I can remember that i was drinking something sweet and i felt treated unfair because i wanted to drink more of it but some one turned the facet and there was nothing to drink anymore. i want to let you know because my pastor and his wife showed us your videotapes although i can remember starting to laugh even before they started and i had heard nothing funny! The holy Spirit was already with me when i came into church So i PRAISE GOD ALMIGHTY and GLORY TO HIS NAME for giving me a wonderful life. Sincerely, Ans F, servant of the LORD GOD JEHOVA
Ever since last Tuesday night, I’ve been really convicted in my heart about winning souls to Christ. I had never done it before and felt very ashamed. Well I did sing, last night, at our church and it was slim picking in the congregation. Obviously we haven’t been doing our job. Well in the very early dark hours, this morning, my youngest daughter called me from Pennsylvania. I asked her if she minded if I would go back to bed. But after I hung up, I thought better about it and called her back to pray the prayer of salvation with her. She asked if she could do it later, and I said “No”. So I led her in the prayer of salvation!!!!!!!!!!!!! And she is the very first person in my life that I’ve ever led to the Lord! What better way to start than with your own family members. Now both my daughters have been saved. My older one lives in Tampa and got saved on March 17th, 2007 in Orlando. I saw it – I was right there. Now please pray that they will be drawn to the things of God and grow in their spiritual walk with Him. Agape, Julie

TWENTY ONE REASONS WE KNOW THAT WE KNOW THE LORD – PART TWO by Rodney Howard Browne
We know we know the Lord because:
6. We have overcome the world and Satan
“I write to you, little children, Because your sins are forgiven you for His name’s sake. I write to you, fathers, Because you have known Him who is from the beginning. I write to you, young men, Because you have overcome the wicked one.I write to you, little children, Because you have known the Father. I have written to you, fathers, Because you have known Him who is from the beginning. I have written to you, young men, Because you are strong, and the word of God abides in you, And you have overcome the wicked one.” 1 John 2:12-14 NKJV
“For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world – our faith.” 1 John 5:4 NKJV
“We know that whoever is born of God does not sin; but he who has been born of God keeps himself, and the wicked one does not touch him.” 1 John 5:18 NKJV
Because we know the Father; because we are born of God; because His word abides in us; because our faith is in Him; because we keep ourselves and choose to not sin – therefore we have overcome the wicked one and he cannot touch us.
7. We hate the world and the things of the world
“Do not love or cherish the world or the things that are in the world. If anyone loves the world, love for the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world — the lust of the flesh [craving for sensual gratification] and the lust of the eyes [greedy longings of the mind] and the pride of life [assurance in one’s own resources or in the stability of earthly things] — these do not come from the Father but are from the world [itself]. And the world passes away and disappears, and with it the forbidden cravings (the passionate desires, the lust) of it; but he who does the will of God and carries out His purposes in his life abides (remains) forever.” 1 John 2:15-17 AMP
The child of God, who knows God, does not love the world or things of the world. The more we come to know the Father; the more time we spend with Him; the less we desire worldly carnal things.
8. We are one with the Body of Christ
“They went out from our number, but they did not [really] belong to us; for if they had been of us, they would have remained with us. But [they withdrew] that it might be plain that they all are not of us.” 1 John 2:19 AMP
Those who know the Father have fellowship with Him and with each other. They are not exclusive, neither do they separate themselves. They do not fight against each other, but they do everything to walk in peace with each other.
9. We are anointed by the Spirit
“But you have an anointing from the Holy One, and you know all things. I have not written to you because you do not know the truth, but because you know it, and that no lie is of the truth. Who is a liar but he who denies that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist who denies the Father and the Son. Whoever denies the Son does not have the Father either; he who acknowledges the Son has the Father also. Therefore let that abide in you which you heard from the beginning. If what you heard from the beginning abides in you, you also will abide in the Son and in the Father. And this is the promise that He has promised us — eternal life. These things I have written to you concerning those who try to deceive you. But the anointing which you have received from Him abides in you, and you do not need that anyone teach you; but as the same anointing teaches you concerning all things, and is true, and is not a lie, and just as it has taught you, you will abide in Him.” 1 John 2:20-27 NKJV
You cannot fake the anointing – you are either anointed or you are not. Those who know the Father also know and recognize the anointing of the Holy Spirit.
10. We know the truth that sets us free
“I have not written to you because you do not know the truth, but because you know it, and that no lie is of the truth.” 1 John 2:21 NKJV
“And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” They answered Him, ‘We are Abraham’s descendants, and have never been in bondage to anyone. How can You say, ‘You will be made free’?’ Jesus answered them, ‘Most assuredly, I say to you, whoever commits sin is a slave of sin. And a slave does not abide in the house forever, but a son abides forever. Therefore if the Son makes you free, you shall be free indeed.’ ” John 8:32-36 NKJV
We know the Truth because we know the Father. The Truth sets us free from sin and from the bondage of sin. We are free indeed.
11. Because we acknowledge God and His Son Jesus Christ
“Who is a liar but he who denies that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist who denies the Father and the Son. Whoever denies the Son does not have the Father either; he who acknowledges the Son has the Father also. Therefore let that abide in you which you heard from the beginning. If what you heard from the
beginning abides in you, you also will abide in the Son and in the Father. And this is the promise that He has promised us —
eternal life.” 1 John 2:22-25 NKJV
We know the Father, and we know Jesus, because we acknowledge that He is Lord, God and Savior. Because we believe, we have eternal life now.

The Lord has done wonders for me since the year 2005. back then i was a hateful, sexual, sorrowful 12 year old boy who was on a bad bad road. my family had been out of church for two years and it seemed that i feel into lots of trouble during this time. one day i felt the weight of my sin and sought the Lord for a while, seeking Him and still sinning i found out didn’t’ mix! but for that year i struggled to overcome my flesh. not knowing how to do so and not telling anybody about what was going on. on new years evening of 2006 i decided that my new years resolution would be to drop my sinful life and peruse Christ till death, i gave my life to Him not out of just words, but this time out of the heart as well., this time i truly wanted Him and this time, this was the beginning of a great life! during this year i was freed from all this sin and recently from fear and confusion bondage, i have peace, love, joy, and faith in my life! i am now preparing myself for the use of the Lord for He has let me know out of the mouths of many that He has a great purpose for me and i can’t wait to fulfill it! the way i overcame this sin was (of course) by His blood and Him alone! i turned to daily prayer and worship, i also opened myself up to those who were living in a right relationship with God to help me out. it was a year of humbling myself and truly finding the God I’ve come to love with ALL MY HEART! my life will never be the same. so take it from me, if you have any of these problems you can’t overcome them by yourself, grab a hold of God and His faithful servants! and praise Him in your storm.

I had a problem with face to face witnessing. I used to be scared but when you just let God move and take control and just read the powerful card they listen to you and take it to the heart before you know it they are on the path to Heaven. By just saying a simple prayer that you led them into.
I began attending The River on October 2006, towards the end of my pregnancy. It was during the October Holy Spirit Weekend. That night we rushed out because I felt labor coming on. I did not deliver until weeks later, I was so moved by emotional, spiritual and physical impact I received here that I continued to attend. Months later when my son was 3 months my son was diagnosed with a condition in which the openings in his skull seal prematurely and cause the head brain to grow deformed. He needed immediate surgery. I was desperate, I prayed to the Lord and begged him to save my son. After a service my son’s grandmother and I approached Pastor Rodney and asked him to pray for my little boy. He prayed over my son and declared health and normalcy over him. At that very moment I was touched by the Lord and hit the ground for the very first time in my life. I felt calm and at peace like I never had before. A week later I woke up to take my son to a visit with the specialist to discuss details about his condition and get a referral for surgery. I touched his head once in faith that I would be able to feel a difference, and I did, IT WAS SOFT!!!! I thanked God in silence keeping my discovery to myself and attended the visit in high spirits. The Doctor checked him thoroughly and finally said there had been a misdiagnosis. My son was not suffering from that horrible condition (at least not anymore)and the doctor even reffered to him as a perfectly healthy little boy. I truly believe and KNOW in my heart that the Lord made my son healthy and saved him from medical intervention and a surgery at such a tender age. Thank God for everything he does for us and everything he has done for me. And thank Pastor Rodney for praying for him as well as other members of the church who called me and prayed for my son. Thank you Thank you Thank you.
