Experiencing the Lord as the Life Supply, Liliana Ortiz

In 1992 I was going through a very difficult situation when I thought that God had forgotten me. But the reality is that He is the God who hides Himself and He was using the situation to gain me (Isaiah 45-15). It was then that He used my husband to start talking to me about Him. At this time I did not want to listen to my husband for I thought he just wanted me to change “religions”. It took me a year to turn my heart to the Lord. My husband told me to visit the local church in Boca Raton, and that if I didn't like it he would stop talking to me about where to meet, and would respect my decision. I went, and ever since then, I have been captivated by the beauty of the Lord in all the believers in the local church. Later on that year, I moved to Miami, where the same love and care that the believers had given to me in Boca Raton was also given to me in Miami.

In 1995 when I came back from a conference held in Anaheim, California, the enemy of God planned to terminate my life, injuring me with a cerebral tumor that almost took my life; but God had better plans for me. Ever since then I have experienced the Lord in every aspect of my life, eating Him as the hidden manna, to be my life supply and my everything (Revelation 2:17). In the same year I moved once more, this time to Orlando, where I continued enjoying the Lord in the same way as I did in Boca Raton and in Miami, with the only difference being that we are separated geographically.

I praise the Lord for His mercy towards me and my whole family, granting us the grace of listening to and reading the ministry of Watchman Nee and Witness Lee. For the past years I have experienced the growth in life that only a proper feeding could give. This ministry, has taught me to call on the Lord, to love Him and to enjoy Him.
