Miracle Story - Angel saves boy from drowning at beach

Watch this video and be amazed at how God rescued this young man from a near-death experience at the beach in Australia and saved him (in more ways than one!).

This is the story of Ariki. On 1 Januray 2013, Ariki was out having fun during the summer holidays, swimming with his family at the beach in Australia. Within moments, he unexpectedly found himself in a life and death situation struggling for his life -- with no one able help. He cried out to God to come rescue him.

Watch this video and hear this amazing true story of how Ariki believes that God sent an angel to rescue him that day. This turned out to be a blessing that impacted him spiritually in his relationship with God. The near-death experience rejuvenated his love of life and his walk with Jesus Christ.

Today Ariki says that he cannot keep the love of God to himself, and tells everyone to come worship God at the foot of the cross of Jesus Christ. God loves you and wants to have a personal relationship with you. He shares a Christian message, encouraging people to turn their lives to God.

Jesus invites us in the Bible to 'come follow Him'. John 10:27 says - "My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me."

I had an almost identical experience to Ariki and it's a day I'll never forget. In January, 1977, I was a teenager holidaying with friends at Bateau Bay, New South Wales, so the beach was close and we were there frequently. One day we ventured out into the surf and I got caught in a rip and was carried further out than I would have liked and, being in a rip, I couldn't fight it and had no idea what to do. I was going under, swallowing way too much water, quickly tiring and panicking. Within a few minutes (but it seemed an eternity) a strong right arm of a man wrapped around my chest from behind and carried me back to shore. The man never said a word. When we got to the shoreline, he carried me up to a dry patch of sand, turned me around to face away from the surf and just dropped me on all fours on the sand. I turned around to thank him for, obviously, saving my life but he was gone. No one was nearby. I looked all around me and the closest person was about 50 meters away, too far to walk or run in such a short period. I have no explanation for it and believe it was an angel that saved my life 41 years ago.

WOW!!! I have an almost EXACT similar experience. I was born into a Catholic family and I was an alter boy growing up. I always felt as a do now a strong connection with God. I grew up in Southern California and spent allot of time as a young teen at the beach. On one particular day I found myself without a board out in some pretty gnarely conditions. Me and a friend had paddled out on one board and somehow became seperated. I began to panic as I realized the seriousness of the situation,  trying to swim back to shore in the bad weather without a board. I remember looking at my arms just before I went under and they were bright red from my struggle; I knew it was all over. Just then I felt a hand on my wrist. Not just any hand or any grip, but a warm hand that grabbed me by the wrist as if there was no water between us, my grip was not slippery. I claseped my hand around the wrist of that angelic arm and was yanked to my feet; I was standing on the beach in waist deep water. At that same moment, confused and disoriented, I looked up and saw my friend running down the beach towards me. He asked how I got back to shore. I was speechless. To this day I can't explain it any other way, but something in me knows I saw a figure walking away as my friend ran towards me. That figure was a black man in all white clothing. He was moving along the beach into the distance; his clothing swayed in a peculiar way almost like water flowing around him...it was fuzzy. Logically what I do know is that I was moved through the water in some kind of time and space that shouldn't exist. It was real and it happened. Later in life as I came to recall these things, I realized I was saved by my gaurdian angel.

My grandpa used to live in Hawaii and one day while swimming at the beach the waves got really rough and he began to drown. Long story short an angel came to bring him back to shore too and when he turned around to thank the angel, the angel was gone. I completely believe in the story this boy had to say, and the way God showed him he is real through a bible verse on his bracelet afterwards was just even more proof!

Same thing happened with me. I was drowning in a wild river in India. I was struggling in between those strong tides of that wild river few years back. I remember i was helpless as i was not a swimmer but while i was fighting for life i said 1 word in that sound of water echoing in my ears i can still recall that sound that view of river, I said JESUS just 1 word and The Kind Lord sent help for me. I was on the bank of river but never saw the person who saved me. JESUS WILL SAVE YOU IF YOU HAVE FAITH IN HIM.
I ALWAYS SAY MIRACLES HAPPEN TO THOSE WHO BELIEVE

The Lord has purpose for this young man..amen. Surely he has purpose for both you and me. Give God the Glory!

[lindajkonsavage]

Thank u so much for sharing your testimony ! God is so amazing all the time! He has a plan for each and every one of us! No one can interfere with Gods plan! Sometimes when we don't know him or we are a backslider or where ever we are in our lives, God has a way of getting our attention. Rather it is in a positive way or sometimes even life threatening. Our father loves us so much. He does not want any of his children to suffer and miss out on the kingdom of heaven . He wants us to live life with him forever in Heaven! So sometimes he has to do very powerful things in our lives to get our attention. Because when our lives are going good and everything is great, we tend to forget about God. We don't even think of him! We don't thank him for all The blessings that he has given us, we don't even pray on a daily basis and some of us don't pray at all! It's really sad but the main time most people think about God is when something tragic happens or when bad things are happening in their life. Then they start asking God why ? why them? or why me? But if that's the only way he can get our attention at least he's getting our attention. Now as we turn to him in prayer and start drawing near to him again and begin to feel that close happy loving feeling that he gives us we start connecting with again and he takes us through our trials and tribulations. Sometimes he walks with us holding our hand and sometimes he carries us through. But the most important thing to always remember is once he has brought you through that storm . Do not let go of him again continue to praise and bless him and thank him every single day the rest of your life pray to him in the morning pray to him in the daytime and at night time in the middle of the night. I talk to him all day long. I talk to him while I'm driving in my car and I'm always talking to him in my head or praying for people whenever I see it is needed. God never leaves our side he is always with us. Don't leave him standing on the outside of your heart in the cold waiting for you to open the door of your heart to bring him in. Ask him into your life to live forever. Ask Jesus to be your heavenly father and tell him that you believe that he is the son of God and and that God sent him down to live on earth to be persecuted and to die for our sins on the cross. And then three days later to be resurrected and to walk among his disciples before ascending to heaven to sit at the right hand of God, . And there he will stay until the day he comes back for his children, Which is us. No one knows the day nor the hour of His return, But the Bible says to be prepared at all times. If you do not know Jesus as your Lord and your savior I ask you to pray right now and ask him into your heart .tell him that you believe that Jesus is the son of God and that he died on the cross for our sins and then arose three days later and walked and ate and drank among his disciples. Until he ascended to heaven to be at the right hand of God his father. Ask him for forgiveness. Ask him to cleanse your heart and your soul to forgive you of all your sins. Let him know you want to live a life following him doing his will the rest of your days. Amen!!!

God bless him.  So glad he's sharing his testimony.

[raptureimminent]

Thank you for sharing your experience with us. Never feel intimidated by those who withstand your faith and mock you. They do it in ignorance for they don't have a personal knowledge of the love of Jesus, May you bring in many "fish"for Jesus.. God bless you and your loved ones and give you His shalom peace!

[KaraSauveFish]

My dad...when he was young tried to take his life by drowning himself out into the ocean. He was not a swimmer. He said as he was going under and his lungs started to fill with water, he saw a light and heard beautiful music. Then he felt a hand on his shoulder..then suddenly he was being pulled up. He then found himself on the beach and there was no one in site. He felt it was angel that saved him.

[cainabercrombie]

Absolutely amazing! God is so amazing!

When I was 11 yrs old I was at an amusement park when I decided to try out the big water slide. Long story short, as I was sliding down the water slide, I fell off the float-tube. When I landed in the water i started drowning since I didn't know how to swim. To make matters worse, the lady who was right behind me on the slide landed her float-tube right ontop of my head. I was trapped.
No one noticed & there were no life guards around. I knew i was drowning.
But the next thing I knew, I was outside of the water and standing on the grass. I knew that "something/someone"  had pulled me out of the water, but i didnt know who/what.
I later came to the revelation that it was God who had pulled me out.
Praise God for He is good!!
