A true story. I asked in prayer and Jesus answered me! June 18, 2010

Alfred DiMora The day my Brother Al was to be honored at his star dedication, knowing that there would be many Hollywood stars at the dedication I prayed and asked Jesus if I could speak at this dedication.  I wanted to be able to give a message that would honor Jesus. The night before the night before the dedication Al received a phone call telling him one of the guest speakers could not make it. I told Al I would like to say a few things, but Al told me the organizers had control of the event but he would ask them.  Later that evening Al got another call telling them that I could speak for 5-7 minutes.  I knew Jesus had opened up the door for me to give glory to Him by giving a speech about my Brother’s life.  Because of time limits I knew I would only be able to say a few things so I wrote down notes pin pointing exactly what I wanted to say.

The morning of the dedication Al asked me to drive a car he had built to the dedication.  I was suppose to drive the car there and return to change my clothes and pick up my notes.  Things went wrong and I couldn’t make it back to the house to get my notes or change but this was all in Christ’s plan for me.  Just before the dedication started I grabbed a small piece of paper and wrote down a few notes. I was in a rush and couldn’t remember most of what I wrote down the night before so I was a little up-set. Since I only had 7 minutes I know I wouldn’t be able to get out what I had hoped to say. 

Jesus had a different plan for me. Before going up I prayed and asked Jesus to help me with this speech since I didn’t remember most of what I was going to say.  When I reached the mic  to speak Jesus took over and I didn’t have any problems saying the things I wanted to say.  Not only did Jesus help me with the speech I spoke a few seconds short of 15 minutes.  My speak turned out to be the longest speech given that day.  As I was speaking I could see the people weeping.  i knew that Jesus was reaching these people. 

For the rest of  that day during Al’s celebration I had people coming up to me asking me questions about Jesus.  I had a chance to speak to people and even lead someone to Christ in prayer right there at Al’s celebration.  I asked Jesus to help me glorify Him, and my prayer was answer ten fold.

Below is the list of some of the speakers at my Brothers dedication. My speech starts at the 18 minute mark.  Click to link and give it about 20 seconds or so to load.  Jesus said, “You may ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it” John 14:14.  I thank Jesus for answering my prayers and then some!
