At about 3pm on 4 August 2013, the glass cover on my living room’s coffee table shattered for no reason. When it happened, my 11-year-old son, Benjamin, was seated on the sofa around 30cm away, watching television.
When I heard a few thuds, I dashed out of the bedroom, thinking that the standing fan had fallen. My husband, who was in the kitchen, also came out and both of us were shocked to see glass shards all over the living room.
The impact of the breakage was so great that some glass shards flew into the kitchen but praise be to Jesus, Benjamin was totally unhurt!
Later, he told us that while watching television, he heard a crackling sound in the middle of the glass cover and immediately, it broke into many pieces.
Amazingly, there was a big piece of glass sitting on the edge of the table nearest to Benjamin, which did not shatter. After taking a closer look, we realised it had many cracks on it. If it had shattered, the glass shards could have cut Benjamin who was just wearing a T-shirt and a pair of shorts!
I told him that an angel had protected him because every morning, my three boys and I would confess that Jesus would open doors of wisdom, favour, health and healing for us, and He is our shield and protection. I would also plead the blood of Jesus over my family and this incident was clearly God averting a disaster for our family.
Thank you Pastor Prince for being our senior pastor and please carry on preaching the gospel of grace. We can never get enough of it. Hallelujah!
