Roy Burton - A Powerful Testimony of Divine Intervention and Deliverance

A Miracle in Senatobia: Experiencing God's Deliverance

As a spiritual content creator and host of "Coffee with Conrad," I've had the privilege of hearing countless testimonies of God's power and grace. Today, I want to share an extraordinary story of deliverance that touched my heart and reinforced my faith in the supernatural workings of Jesus Christ. This testimony comes from my friend Roy Burton, a man whose passion for God and dedication to spreading His word never fails to inspire me.

The Day Everything Changed

It was a typical Sunday morning when Roy's life took an unexpected turn. As he prepared for church, something inexplicable happened. Roy found himself in a state of complete disorientation, unable to remember even the most basic details of his life. His wife, Judy, noticed his confusion and tried to help, but it quickly became apparent that this was no ordinary lapse in memory.

Roy's recollection of that morning is fragmented, but Judy filled in the gaps. He couldn't remember decorating for Christmas, cutting wood the day before, or even which church they attended. The man who was usually so full of life and spiritual fervor was suddenly lost in his own home, surrounded by familiar faces he couldn't recognize.

A Divine Appointment

As they made their way to Solid Rock Assembly, our church here in Senatobia, Mississippi, Roy's condition didn't improve. Even after prayer from our pastor and church elders, he remained in a state of confusion. It was clear that something more was needed.

What happened next can only be described as a divine appointment. Instead of heading straight to the doctor as Judy suggested, Roy felt compelled to go to a Chinese restaurant first. Little did they know, God had orchestrated a miraculous encounter.

At the restaurant, they met Garry and Nancy Nesbitt, friends involved in deliverance ministry. Garry, prompted by the Holy Spirit, had felt led to visit that specific restaurant that morning, knowing someone would need prayer. This "coincidence" was anything but – it was a clear demonstration of God's perfect timing and supernatural guidance.

The Power of Deliverance

After their meal, Garry took Roy aside and began to minister to him. Through a series of questions and prayers, Garry discerned the spiritual nature of Roy's condition. As they prayed together in the parking lot, invoking the name of Jesus and the power of divine healing, something remarkable happened.

Roy describes the moment with raw emotion: "I could feel whatever was going on with me leave me." The fog lifted, his memory returned, and the oppressive force that had gripped his mind dissipated. In that instant, Roy was delivered and restored.

Reflections on a Miraculous Healing

As I reflect on Roy's testimony, I'm struck by several powerful truths:

1. The reality of spiritual warfare: Roy's experience reminds us that we're engaged in a battle that extends beyond the physical realm. As the Bible says in Ephesians 6:12, "For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms."

2. The importance of discernment: While medical help is often necessary, Roy's story illustrates the need for spiritual discernment. Sometimes, what appears to be a physical or mental issue has spiritual roots that require a different kind of intervention.

3. God's perfect timing: The "chance" encounter with Garry Nesbitt was anything but random. It showcases God's ability to orchestrate events and bring the right people together at the exact moment they're needed.

4. The power of faith and prayer: Roy's immediate healing came through faith in Jesus Christ and the power of prayer. It's a testament to James 5:15, which tells us, "And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well; the Lord will raise them up."

Biblical Teachings on Deliverance

Roy's experience aligns perfectly with the biblical model of deliverance ministry. Throughout the Gospels, we see Jesus casting out demons and freeing people from spiritual oppression. In Mark 16:17, Jesus promises His followers, "And these signs will accompany those who believe: In my name they will drive out demons."

The Apostle Paul also speaks about our authority over spiritual forces in Ephesians 6:10-11: "Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes."

These scriptures remind us that as believers, we have been given authority in Christ to confront and overcome spiritual darkness. Roy's testimony is a powerful, modern-day example of this truth in action.

A Call to Action

Roy's story of deliverance has had a profound impact on his life and faith. He shares, "I'm more on fire for him now than I ever was because I know what he can do for you." His experience serves as a catalyst, igniting a deeper passion for God and a desire to see others set free.

As we conclude this powerful testimony, I want to encourage you, my dear readers, to take several steps:

1. Examine your own life: Are there areas where you feel spiritually oppressed or hindered? Don't hesitate to seek help from mature believers or those gifted in deliverance ministry.

2. Cultivate discernment: Ask God for wisdom to distinguish between physical, emotional, and spiritual issues in your life and the lives of those around you.

3. Strengthen your faith: Immerse yourself in God's Word and cultivate a robust prayer life. These are your primary weapons in spiritual warfare.

4. Share your testimony: If you've experienced God's deliverance or healing, don't keep it to yourself. Your story could be the key to someone else's freedom.

5. Stay connected: Join our community at ConradRocks.Net for more inspiring testimonies, teachings, and resources to fuel your spiritual growth.

Remember, as Roy's story illustrates, our God is a God of miracles. He is always ready to intervene, heal, and deliver. All we need to do is reach out in faith and allow Him to work in our lives.

Until next time, keep seeking the supernatural, stay rooted in Jesus, and remember – with God, all things are possible!

Standing Firm in a Sifted Generation: An Interview with Pastor Michael Henderson

Faith Under Fire: A Conversation with Michael Henderson on Modern Christianity

As the host of Conrad Rocks, I recently had the privilege of sitting down with Pastor Michael Henderson, author of the timely and thought-provoking book "The Sifted Generation." Our conversation delved into the challenges facing Christians today and how believers can stand firm in their faith during trying times.

The Sifted Generation

The title of Henderson's book refers to the process of separating wheat from chaff, and he believes we are seeing a similar sifting in the church today. True believers are being exposed and tested as cultural hostility towards Christianity increases.

Henderson explained, "We're seeing that in the final days before the Lord's return... Satan is working his hardest to get as many people as he can to come up against God." This spiritual battle is manifesting in practical ways, as Christians increasingly face pressure to compromise their beliefs or stay silent about their faith.

A Decline in Christian Influence

One of the key points Henderson addresses in his book is the decline of Christian influence in American culture over the past century. We discussed how society has shifted from a biblically-based moral foundation to a more secular humanistic worldview.

Henderson noted, "America was founded on godly principles. We were a nation that had morals. Common sense comes from morality, which comes from the scripture." He argues that as society has moved away from these foundations, we've seen an increase in hostility toward Christian beliefs and values.

The Kim Davis Case: A Modern-Day Rosa Parks

One of the most striking examples we discussed was the case of Kim Davis, the Kentucky county clerk who refused to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples. Henderson sees her as a modern-day Rosa Parks – someone willing to take a stand for their convictions, even at great personal cost.

"Kim Davis is, to me, a modern-day Rosa Parks," Henderson stated. "She's one that said 'no' to the system and said, 'I'm going to stand firm on the beliefs that I have.'" He emphasized that Davis's story demonstrates the transformative power of the Gospel, as she turned to Christ with her brokenness and was saved.

The Church at a Crossroads

Our conversation touched on the alarming trend of denominations compromising biblical truth to appease cultural pressures. Henderson shared how some major Protestant denominations have shifted their stance on issues like same-sex marriage and abortion, often citing concerns about losing tax-exempt status or ministerial credentials.

This capitulation stands in stark contrast to the early church, where the apostles willingly faced persecution rather than water down the Gospel message. As Henderson put it, "The scripture says if any man desires to live godly in Christ Jesus, he will suffer persecution. Why in the world are people that are Christians not willing to stand up and suffer?"

A Call to Action

As our interview drew to a close, I was struck by the urgency of Henderson's message. We are indeed living in a "sifted generation," where nominal Christianity is being exposed and true faith is being tested. The question for each of us is: How will we respond?

Henderson's book "The Sifted Generation" serves as both a wake-up call and a source of encouragement for believers. It challenges readers to examine their faith and equips them to stand firm in the face of opposition. 

I highly recommend picking up a copy of "The Sifted Generation" on Amazon (available in paperback and Kindle formats). You can also visit Henderson's blog at truthinspires.com for more insights and to download his free e-book "25 Reasons to Believe."

Let's take Henderson's closing prayer to heart: "Father, I pray that as we see these things happening, that our eyes would be open... that there is a gathering of darkness that's occurring that the scripture talks about in the final days... I pray that you would let them know that you have died for their sins, you sent Jesus to die for their sins, that he defeated death, that he rose from the dead to give them eternal life."

May we be found faithful, standing firm in our faith, when Christ returns.

Three Fold Vision on 9-5-2015

A Journey Through Darkness and Light

Hey there, fellow seekers of the supernatural! It's Conrad from ConradRocks.Net, and I've got something incredible to share with you. Recently, I experienced a series of powerful prophetic visions that I believe will resonate with many of you on your spiritual journey. Join me as we explore these divine revelations and uncover their deeper meanings.

The Power of Worship: Gateway to the Supernatural

Before I dive into the visions, I want to emphasize the importance of worship in our spiritual lives. As many of you know, I'm a worshipper, and I've experienced firsthand the transformative power of praise. There's something truly magical about picking up my guitar and entering into God's presence through worship.

Scripture tells us that "God inhabits the praises of His people" (Psalm 22:3), and I've found this to be profoundly true. Worship isn't just about singing songs; it's a gateway to the Kingdom of Heaven. It's in these moments of pure adoration that miracles happen, visions unfold, and healing takes place.

I've noticed that some of the most powerful supernatural encounters occur during worship rather than preaching. There's a unique openness to the Spirit that comes when we lay aside our agendas and simply bask in God's presence.

Three Prophetic Visions: A Divine Download

On Saturday, September 5th, I felt a strong urge to spend time in worship. As I began to play my guitar and sing praises, I entered into a deeply spiritual state. It was during this time that the Lord blessed me with three distinct prophetic visions. Let me share them with you:

 Vision 1: The Eagle in Darkness

In the spirit realm, I saw an eagle flying through pitch-black darkness. The eagle was disoriented, unable to find a place to land. I sensed its thoughts: "I can't see where to land. I don't know where I'm going."

This vision speaks to the confusion and uncertainty many of us face in these challenging times. The eagle, often seen as a prophetic symbol, represents those with spiritual insight who are currently struggling to navigate the darkness surrounding us.

Vision 2: Plowing Through Obstacles

The scene shifted, and I saw someone plowing a field. However, this wasn't an ordinary field. It was filled with not only rocks but also patches of pavement. These obstacles made the task of plowing incredibly difficult.

This vision aligns with Jesus' parable of the sower in Mark 4:14-17. The rocks and pavement represent the hardened hearts and worldly influences that prevent the Word of God from taking root. As believers, we're called to "plow" through these obstacles, preparing the soil of people's hearts to receive the Gospel.

Vision 3: Two Coexisting Realities

The final vision was perhaps the most perplexing. I witnessed two distinct environments existing side by side, separated by an inexplicable line. On one side was complete darkness, while the other side was bathed in bright daylight. These contrasting realities had no business coexisting, yet there they were.

This vision speaks to the spiritual battle we're engaged in daily. Light and darkness, good and evil, exist simultaneously in our world. As believers, we're called to be the light in the darkness, shining brightly even when surrounded by spiritual opposition.

 Biblical Reflections on the Visions

As these visions unfolded, several scriptures came to mind, providing deeper insight into their meanings:

1. "Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus." (Philippians 3:13-14)

This verse reminds us to keep moving forward, even when the path ahead seems unclear, just like the eagle searching for a place to land.

2. "No one who puts a hand to the plow and looks back is fit for service in the kingdom of God." (Luke 9:62)

Jesus' words here emphasize the importance of commitment and perseverance in our spiritual journey, especially when faced with obstacles like the rocks and pavement in the second vision.

3. "You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden." (Matthew 5:14)

This verse relates to the third vision, reminding us of our role as bearers of God's light in a world where darkness still exists.

Personal Reflections and Experiences

These visions have deeply impacted my own spiritual walk. They've reminded me of the importance of staying connected to God through worship, even when the world around us seems chaotic. I've been challenged to be more intentional about "plowing the field" of my own heart, removing any obstacles that might hinder my relationship with Jesus.

I've also been reflecting on how these visions apply to our current global situation. Many of us feel like that eagle, disoriented and unsure of where to land in these turbulent times. But I believe God is calling us to trust Him, to keep moving forward, and to be beacons of light in the darkness.


Digging Deeper and Going Higher

I want to encourage you to take these visions to heart and apply them to your own life:

1. Prioritize worship: Set aside regular time to enter God's presence through praise and adoration.
2. Plow the field: Identify and remove any "rocks" or "pavement" in your heart that might be hindering your spiritual growth.
3. Be the light: In a world where darkness and light coexist, choose to shine brightly for Jesus.


Remember, in these challenging times, we're called to dig deeper into God's Word and go higher in our spiritual experiences. Let's press on together, seeking the heart of Jesus and allowing His light to shine through us.


Until we meet again, keep seeking the supernatural and stay rooted in the Word. God bless you all!
