TESTIMONIES


This event was a faith builder for me and my family. I was sure to get my kids there because I wanted them to experience the powerful teaching and the presence of the Holy Spirit. I love and trust the Lord, but I often feel beaten up by the world and things coming at me as a single mom. I went to this conference looking to hear from God and get recharged. Through the powerful worship, testimony and teaching I was reminded that I do NOT have to tolerate that which I see. I have POWER and AUTHORITY in the name JESUS! I don’t need to “take” being beaten up by the world, instead I need to “take” the sword of the spirit and speak the Word of God over the circumstances in my life. My faith was built up and I left with confidence and assurance recognizing that, as a child of God, I have been given power in the name of Jesus.

That power was abundantly flowing during prayer time. The Holy Spirt was at work doing heart surgery on me and each of my children. My son Sam, age 11, said that God made his heart beat. Since the conference, we have seen answers to prayers that have been on my lips for a long time. I have seen a complete change in his behavior, his choices, and his words. Most importantly, I have seen a desire in his heart to seek love and life giving words. He asks every morning for me to give him a “Word” for the day and a prayer. He won’t go to school without it! I am praising God for the truth that was revealed during this conference and I am excited to see what God has for us next time!

I have had the joy of both hosting and experiencing You Were Made for Victory in our church in Pittsburgh, PA. Having known Victoria for many years, I was confident that she would share God’s word with confidence and power and the people who participated would be impacted personally and positively. Boy was I right! Victoria is developing a beautiful message based on her understanding of scripture and her many experiences seeing the power of God at Work. She ministers with sensitivity to her audience and she speaks with extraordinary confidence, in part, because of the countless personal opportunities she has had seeing God’s restorative and healing power change lives. It is a joy to know Victoria and her family personally and I would encourage anyone who is open to a more personal encounter with God to attend You Were Made For Victory. I am so glad that I did!

I suffered from severe scoliosis as a child and adult. My curvature was over 51 degrees.

In 2016 I had two major surgeries where they corrected the curvature to 10 degrees. They did this with two steel rods, 24 screws, and a metal cage around two vertebras that they built with my hip bone.

I learned to live with the pain but always begged God to take it away. I was able to receive prayer about a year and half after my surgeries that completely changed everything! The Glory of God came over me and I felt His love flow down my spine into each vertebra and then I literally felt the source of my pain leave my body. I was healed and began to praise God to the highest.

I have learned through the biblical teaching of You Were Made for Victory that I have

to defend my healing according to Galatians 5:1. I stand firm and do not allow that pain to come back.

I am so thankful for our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ for all He has done for me and I want EVERYONE to know that what He has done for me He will do for you also!

My mom has always done her best to honor Jesus. She has taught me since I was a little boy about Jesus and His Word. Her passion for Him and his Truth has only increased over the years and I have watched my mom stand relentlessly on God’s Word to see victory in our family’s life. She’s fierce for Jesus and she never gives up or backs down because she knows the goodness of God — I’m so thankful to have a mom like her. You Were Made for Victory is God’s idea and he chose our family to take this message to the world. My friends and I attended a You Were Made for Victory event and it was awesome! The room was supercharged with the Holy Spirit and many of my friends were overcome by the love of God during the worship and began to cry. One of my buddies gave his life to Jesus that night after my sister shared her testimony. Many people were healed and lives were changed that night by the power and love of God!

I attended You Were Made for Victory with my teenage daughter. The worship music was beautiful and really ushered in God’s presence. The message spoke straight into my heart and touched my spirit. I gained a deeper understanding that I was made for so much more!!! I am a child of God. I am chosen. I am loved. I am made to live a life of victory!!! I walked out inspired to live a life fully submitted to Christ and empowered to live in the victory Christ gives to me. We are made for victory!!!!

”I attended because of an invitation I received from a friend. I have been a believing Christian for several years now, yet I was unsure what to expect from God that night. I went forward for prayer for an elbow joint that gave me pain much of the time and for the lack of feeling in my feet. After prayer I was asked how I felt. The pain in my elbow was gone and the feeling had begun to return to my feet. I was prayed for again and more feeling returned. I continued to claim the Victory that Jesus bought for me and the feeling in my feet has returned. The pain in my elbow left immediately, but tried to return and for several days afterward I had to declare victory over and over. Now I haven’t experienced any pain in my elbow.” All the best in this ministry my sister in Christ Jesus!

My name is Missy McCabe. I am a pastor’s wife living in the Pittsburgh area of Pennsylvania. I’ve known Victoria very personally for 13 years. What began as a business relationship quickly evolved into a deeply spiritual relationship. I’ve had the joy of watching Victoria become a gifted and effective teacher of God’s Word. Through an incredibly difficult experience involving the health of her daughter, Jessica, coupled with a huge desire to understand God’s heart, Victoria is becoming a gift from God’s hand to the Church. You Were Made For Victory is for anyone whose heart is open for more of God.

We were so incredibly blessed to have YWMFV come minister at our local church. We encountered Jesus through dynamic worship and teaching straight from the Word of God. We were so encouraged by the personal testimonies of Jesus’ miracle healing power. The prayer and ministry time that followed was full of the Holy Spirit and fire! Half of the room was slain in the Spirit, including my three sons. It was a booster shot of Holy Spirit empowerment to take up the authority Jesus gave us and walk in victory, that our church desperately needed.

I dealt with severe anxiety for decades. Sometimes it got to the point that my body would begin to shut down if I didn’t take a certain medication to stop it.  Through the teaching of God’s Word and learning how to live it out, I have been able to overcome the debilitating effects of this anxiety. I now know how to confront it and win! I’m so thankful for the teaching represented by You Were Made for Victory- it’s changing my life and it can change yours too!

Victoria is a bold and passionate carrier of God’s Word and His Presence.As she brought forth the Word God had etched into her heart, our hearts were pierced with the greatness of His power and His fierce love for us!  We were challenged to arise and be the overcomes we were created to be in Christ Jesus! The presence of Holy Spirit was upon us during the message and the ministry time that followed.  We experienced personally and observed signs and wonders as Victoria and her team prayed for those who came forward for prayer.I was deeply touched and ministered to by the powerful presence of the Lord at this event! Can’t wait for You Were Made for Victory to come back!
