God, Help Me! - Greg Hibbins
Preface
I’m really glad that you are reading this book, as I share with you the remarkable journey that God has taken me on. I share this testimony, which is a testimony of God’s goodness. It is a testimony of the reality of a loving God who cares for His people and His creation, and how He came and intervened in my life as a young man—a young man completely opposed to God in every way and every form. Despite my opposition, He broke through to me, and I would like to share that journey—and things that he used to reach me—with you.
As we start, let’s look at God’s Word. 1 Peter 5:8 says, Be sober minded, be alert, your adversary the devil is prowling around like a roaring lion, seeking for anyone he can devour.
We are living in a day and age where people don’t believe in the reality of Satan; we are living in a day and age where people think it’s all some sort of big joke. Entertainment, horror, fortune-telling and the huge panorama of related activities are designed to draw people deeper into Satan’s snare and blind them to God. I pray my testimony will remind you that there is a Saviour, and His name is Jesus—and He came to save us.
Chapter 1: Early Years
I was born into an occultic home on the 27 July, 1959. My family was living in Durban, South Africa at that time. My mom was at home in labour with me; in those days not everybody went to the hospital to have a baby. The doctor and midwife were in with her. While she was in labour, the telephone rang and my granny, who lived with us, answered the telephone. It was the leader of the local spiritism sanctuary, and he said to my gran, I just want to congratulate Jean on the birth of her baby son.
My Gran was quite puzzled and said, Well, the baby has not been born yet, and we don’t know the sex of the baby; so how can you call up to tell me to congratulate her on the birth of her baby son?
As she said those words, she heard my cry come from the bedroom. He answered and said, Just pass on the message to Jean.
You see, he knew what my gender was, and he knew the exact moment of my birth, even though he wasn’t there. Those were the sort of incidents that took place which cemented, in my mom’s mind, the power that was available in the occult. I was also born with the membrane over my face which, within many occult groups, is considered a sign of second sight and occultic ability. It was seen as a badge of approval, and literally from the day of my birth I was set aside by my mother and started to be trained in the occult.
Although I was born in Durban, South Africa, we moved up to Northern Rhodesia, now called Zambia, when I was six weeks old.
The relationship between my mom and dad was one which was full of tension and conflict. For both of them, it was a second marriage. I had a half-brother and a half-sister, 13 and 11 years older than me respectively, and a full brother who was three years older than me. The relationship between my mom and dad continued to disintegrate to the point that, when I was four, they decided to get divorced.
They were both
