Testimonies from Around the World

Sayed yearned to meet the Jesus he heard about from a Christian friend. His life was crazy with university, family business responsibilities and being there for all his friends. He was always stressed and overwhelmed with life. He had just broken up with the girl he thought was the one he would wed. Islam was a family tradition more than a faith to him, but he could not think of something as personal as knowing Jesus. That night, his Christian friend prayed and asked for Jesus to reveal Himself to Sayed.

Two nights after that prayer, Sayed fell asleep, and he started to dream. In his dream, he found himself on the street in front of his apartment. He saw his girlfriend down the street, and she turned and smiled at him. He waved to her, and she turned and walked away. He was so upset he sat right in the middle of the road and started to cry. He felt a hand on his shoulder and turned, immediately he knew it was Jesus who was sitting with him. He felt a total peace as Jesus spoke to him and told him that he loved him. Sayed looked at Jesus and told him he had beautiful hair. Jesus gave him a comb and he started to comb his own hair and it grew and looked like the hair Jesus had. Sayed said to Jesus, “You look like me.” Jesus smiled and said, “No, you look like me because you were created in my image.” He woke from the dream and knew the prayer from the other night had been answered.

Pray for dreams and visions across the Muslim world, but also pray for those who will go into the world and ask the question, “Have you ever had a dream or vision of a man in white?” Many have had this dream, but they have no one to help them understand what this dream can mean.
