How many times How many times did we miss those moments? That can make a difference Not only in our life But in the life of another That other person that's been praying steadfastly To the Lord at that time So as you listen to today's testimony Just remember What if he hadn't done what he was asked to do? I'm sure there's others that would have been asked to do the same thing Say the same thing Pray the same thing But had he not acted on behalf of the Lord What would have happened? So here is Derek Carr Again he's an NFL player Not that that means a lot But in the eyes of many in the world A celebrity if you will And just listen to his wonderful testimony Sitting there and it's all over It was awesome There's like hundreds of people there It was cool It was really fun And they actually did an altar call at the end The pastor did He wanted to do it for his church So I thought it was awesome So he's sitting there And we're done We're sitting here And it's clear as day The Holy Spirit tells me Someone here is going to commit suicide Unless you say something I'm questioning myself Am I really going to stand up here While the pastor is trying to give an altar call And grab the mic and be like Hey someone here is going to commit suicide And no one comes up And then I look silly Like these are all going through my head And I'm sitting there thinking about it Like okay hold on And I know what I'm supposed to do But I'm trying to question myself Because that's a big step That's a lot of obedience To step out there and do that So I asked the pastor Would you please I'm sorry I just got to say something real quick If you don't mind I grabbed the mic and I said Someone in here It got so hard To where you were going to end your life And you're going to kill yourself And commit suicide tonight And I'm just here to tell you That Jesus loves you That I love you That he has a plan for your life And I'm sitting here All of a sudden this guy There's like 300 people Up in this altar This guy is pointing at himself like this And I began to like Start to tear up again And I said is it you And he said yes He came up And he was bawling his eyes out Just standing there And I was able to hug him And tell him how much I loved him And tell him how much God loves him How much Jesus loves him How much of a plan God has for his life And as I prayed for him And was done speaking with him I gave him a hug And I turned around And my brother was praying with another kid Who was crying so much That there was like a five foot puddle Of just tears underneath him And we were able to go there And just love on him And pray for him right there And I was like wow Two people That was amazing And I sat down And I never felt so exhausted I played football games all my life Never felt so exhausted I sat there and I was just tired For whatever reason I was just exhausted After we prayed for them And it was amazing I go to get in my car And I'm putting Dallas in And I'm walking around Just to get in my car to leave This kid who was just standing there He had his phone out He was like That suicide thing That you were talking about That was me He said I was going to kill myself tonight And I again I just hugged him I hugged the kid I never met these three people in my life And I just told them how much I loved them I told them how much God loved them How much Jesus loved them And I just told them Whatever you're going to do Don't do that Whatever you were thinking about doing Don't do that Because God has allowed you to be here tonight To hear his message And to take a different path with your life Wow Imagine You're in an auditorium There's been a sermon An audio call And the Lord tells you to step out And grab that microphone I don't think it really matters Whether this guy is an NFL player Or who he is To be quite honest with you Because that can happen to any of us And I hope it does happen to all of us At some point in our life Where we have to be obedient to the Lord And to what he tells us How wonderful would that be To know that the Lord had you And used you as his vessel Used you as his vessel To lead another Not only to Christ and salvation But to lead them away from death To lead them away from suicide To lead them away from something That will be a devastation Not only to the person obviously Who would commit the suicide But to all the people in the world That love them That cherish them That want them around Oh praise God Thank you
