Raymond Belizaire, who had been a witch doctor most of his life in Les Cayes, Haiti, heard something different while listening to the radio on the evening of February 22nd. That evening, because of the message he heard, Raymond called upon the name of the Lord.
Bethanie Mission was having a week-long revival meeting at the church in Les Cayes. The message was being broadcast over Radio Renaissance each evening. On Tuesday evening, the speaker was sharing the good news about Jesus and how you can have a new life filled with hope and experience the love of Jesus by having a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. He shared how you can know for sure that you will have a place in heaven. He explained how to accept Jesus as your personal Savior.
That night, in his home, Raymond prayed the prayer of salvation. He asked the Lord to forgive him of his sins and come into his heart to live. He committed his life to Jesus Christ. Praise God! Raymond now has the Holy Spirit living within the “new heart” that the Lord gave him. He was born again.
In his excitement, he then called the church phone number that was given out during the broadcast. He told Pastor Ignace that he wanted to come to the church the next day and talk with him. So, the next day he came to the 6AM prayer meeting. The believers at the church prayed for him and gave him a Bible.
The Lord is continually seeking out and saving the lost. He is not willing that any person should perish. We thank the Lord for the opportunity we have to broadcast the Gospel of Jesus Christ each day to over two million people in Haiti.
