His parents were in tears when they came to know of this evil life style he was living. "What a painful thing that our son is like this! Many youngsters all over the world are drawn to Jesus in our Gospel meetings. But our son has gone far away from the Lord." They were greatly distressed and troubled. His mother began fasting for him once a week and started prevailing in prayer with tears, without taking any food the whole day. But indifferently he told her, "Your prayers will never bring me to the Lord. I am quite happy, just enjoying the pleasure of this world. What's wrong in it?" But she used to reply, "One day, my Lord will listen to my prayer and He is going to use you double fold like your father in the ministry." His grandfather used to spend nearly 20 minutes every morning in their daily prayer time pleading with the Lord, "Oh Lord! Save our son, Paul!".

His trouble started: He felt like he was in hell while at home and he greatly disliked all family members. He failed in all the subjects and gradually his sinful habits robbed him of his peace. A strange kind of restlessness filled his mind. The more troubled he was, the deeper he became involved in his sinful habits, trying hard to gain the peace of mind he had lost somewhere. Fear engulfed him and he was filled with terror. He began to doubt everyone. "Oh! With whom shall I share my feelings? My friends can never understand me! How can I ever share this with my parents? I cannot go to my God because I have forsaken Him and denied Him completely! Alas! Is there no hope for me! No future for me?" This fear and terror tormented him. Everything that he did turned out to be a failure. He lamented like this, left alone, feeling dejected and depressed.

At this crucial moment, "Jesus Calls" Institute of Power Ministry training was introduced for the first time. His father asked him to join the first batch of trainees. This special training is meant for only those who wish to do ministry for the Lord. "How can he, who have not yet come to the Lord, take part in this?" Though this question came up in his mind, He sat in the first row of the trainees just because his father compelled him. Gradually, the messages of the servants of God began to stir him up. One day, his father firmly gave this message, "The Lord wants to use you mightily. The Lord miraculously proved His word through Elijah by sending down His fire from heaven, and making the entire country fall at his feet declaring 'Elijah's God is our God!' He longs to fill you with the same power." He said to himself, "Oh, I am longing for this power” . That is the real reason that influenced me to become a slave to so many sinful habits - just to be respected by all as someone great! If Jesus can give me this power, I will look up to Him alone from this day onwards!" So He knelt down and pleaded with the Lord, thus, he said: "Jesus please take away this fear and terror from me! I seek peace in mind; kindly make me free from the bond of distress and grant me grace to follow you in my future." He literally cried out to Him in tears. God’s presence filled him completely and a great peace flooded his heart. That very night all his sinful habits left him and his style entirely changed and he became a new man in Christ. Since that day everything started to take a new turn in his life.
