A group of 72 converts from Islam has shared an incredible story of how God intervened in power to save them and their children from Boko Haram militants. These believers excel in courageous faith, they have met Christ face-to-face and heard Him speak, they have experienced His miraculous deliverance.

They cannot build themselves up by daily study of His Word — because they cannot read. Or they do not have a New Testament.
Christ appears
Their story begins with a group of 500 Nigerian Christian converts from Islam and their children.
It is not normal for this tribe to gather in such large numbers, but all of them had already been attacked by Boko Haram Islamist militants and they hoped that a larger group would give them a measure of security.
Boko Haram were not deterred. They attacked the group and captured 76, taking them back to their camp.
At the Boko Haram camp, the Christians were tortured, and their four male leaders were told they must deny Christ and return to Islam or they would be shot.
The four refused and were duly shot dead, in full view of the rest of the group.
Muslims Turning To Christ In Great Numbers Through Dreams And Visions
A week later the four widows of the dead men were told they must renounce their Christian faith or their children would be shot. They were given time to think over this dreadful choice.
As they agonized together that evening, their excited children came running in, telling their mothers that Jesus had appeared to them and told them all would be well.
Jesus then appeared to the whole group of 72, and told them not to fear for He would protect them. He said they should not renounce Him but should stay strong, and that He was the Way, the Truth and the Life.
Deliverance from evil
The next day, the four mothers gave their decision to the militants – they would not deny Christ.
The militants prepared to shoot the children, who were already lined up against a wall. The youngest was a little girl of four. Suddenly the militants began screaming and clawing at their own heads. Shouting “Snakes!” they fled the scene, and some of them dropped dead.

As a Christian, I have faith in God. But I still get amazed by the sheer enormity of His love, His response to our prayers, His protection and His provisions for all who accept and rely on Him. May His name by praised forever.

Now the Word of God has become more alive to me after I looked back over the 70 plus years that God has taken care of me and I finally realized that it wasn’t my little wisdom that’s carried me all my life but it’s God’s Love, Wisdom and Faithfulness that’s been on my life and I love God and Jesus even more!
