Randy Goble's Testimony: Delivered from Homosexuality

I was saved in my early adolescent years and through the lack of discipleship, I quickly fell prey to homosexuality. It consumed my thoughts and a lot of time that I could have been working for Him. God also called me into the ministry not too long after I was saved. Yes, I was one who did not "practice what I preached." I regret not living my life the way that I should have but I now know why I had to go through it. I kept struggling through this for a long time, even into my married life. About four years ago, I decided I needed to change my lifestyle. I knew what I had to do in order to do this, give up everything to God. I had hit rock bottom in my life and the only way out of this was up and the only hand I could see was that of God's.

I started driving a truck at this time so there was a lot of down time when I could read my Bible. Finally, one night in California, I asked God if he would let me find a job closer to home where I could be in church more, I would go. It did not take that long for Him to answer my prayer. Over the next few years, up till now, I have learned that everyday is a good day if you will put him first.

Conviction came in my life by hearing a friend talk about Romans 1:18. At that point, I knew I was away from God. I was close to losing my relationship with Him and everyone in my life. I could not handle it any more. After I got back in church, I found the most awesome work of the Cross. It was complete deliverance and I had to go through all of it to get to where He could use me. It is one thing to talk about this sin from a "sin in general" standpoint, but it's all together different when you have been delivered from it. This is why God has put more understanding in the way I deal with this with others. When I was away from Him, He still loved me, not my sin. And that is how I look at people who suffer from this sin.

Randy now runs a ministry called Fire Mountain Ministries which teaches people what the Word of God says about difficult issues like drugs, alcohol, peer pressure and pornography.

If you are living a homosexual lifestyle, Jesus Christ can help deliver you from it if you give your life over to Him. Please follow this link to learn how to become a Christian.
