A testimony is a declaration whether written or spoken of something that is factually true. So, the testimonies of God are His written Word, His actions in time, and the lives of His people that are called by His name. The testimony of God’s Word, Christians, the church, and our pursuit of holiness should be our delight. God’s Word is our guide to live life fully and correctly.

Counselors – counsel, advice, purpose, plans, strategy.
