Marlene Bowers
I have been with my partner for 9 years and we have one son together. Like many couples in New Zealand today we believed that marriage is only a piece of paper.
I was invited by a friend to attend a Deliverance Service with the Universal Church. I decided to go along as I liked to seek knowledge. I was very open to what the Bishop and Pastor where saying and doing through these services. But still my pride would tell me, I am here to seek knowledge and I really don’t need help as I know it all, was I in for the biggest surprise of my life.
Every time I attended a service my spiritual eyes began to see more, I felt like the Pastor was only speaking to me, that his message was exactly what was playing out in my life at that time. Over a period of time I began to put certain things into practice and slowly Jesus Christ began to reveal himself to me. Shortly after I gave myself to Christ through my baptism I broke down completely, I realized how my pride had kept me from seeing Jesus in my life.
After I gave my life to Jesus I began to realize something was missing in my relationship with my partner and after studying the Bible I began to realize what marriage really is.We both agreed that we would get married, we decided on a small and simple ceremony but is was one of the most powerful days of my life.
Before the wedding took place Jesus began to show me what it really meant to be blessed by God in marriage. I suddenly saw the blessing and protection of been married, the oneness between my husband and I. Since this day took place I never knew I could love him more, the blessing on our family has been overwhelming, we don’t fight because we realize that we want peace between us, this is Jesus’ protection.
Our financial life has been blessed with doorways opening to new opportunities in both business for ourselves and owning our own home.
Our son Andrew was our biggest blessing, it still amazes me how children know the difference between there parents been married and not married. I still remember the day I told him we where getting married, he turned to look at me and said to me “mum you will be a Bowers just like me” that moment cemented the true meaning of marriage, it was sealing our family in the eyes of God, not just our commitment to each other but our commitment to Jesus Himself.
The Universal Church has become my home, my protection and my path to Jesus, as Psalm 91 says “I will abide under the shadow of the almighty” this is what the Universal Church has become to me.
May God Bless you and my only hope is that you open your heart and soul to Him completely and allow Jesus to reveal Himself to you through your faith and own transformation in your life.

Before coming to the Universal Church, I suffered from anger problems, drug and alcohol abuse, low self esteem, financial problems, family problems, relationship issues with family and friends. I was also unable to stay committed to a job for long periods of time, I would find any excuse to leave.
On my search for the “Truth” I became part of what is called the New Age movement or Occultism, I was looking for something in my life to overcome these issues. I spent thousands of dollars looking for knowledge that did nothing to overcome the suffering that I endured.
