Website reports of Andrae and Sandra Crouch praying with Michael Jackson

IN THE WAKE of the death of superstar Michael Jackson, several websites have been running an article, Did Andrae Crouch and his sister lead Michael Jackson to Christ? It reports that Jackson and gospel singers Andrae and Sandra Crouch met up with Jackson weeks before his death. Michael was "interested in making his music more spiritual." According to the reports, "Andrae and Sandra told Michael about Jesus and the anointing of the Holy Spirit. All three held hands and prayed." CR

God judges man by his heart. I believe that God was working on Michael's heart before his death. Michael's interest in making his music become spiritual reflects what was in his heart before he died. He could have asked a nonchristian spiritual advisor for answers but instead seeked answers from 2 christian advisors (Andrae Crouch and his sister). It's very possible that Michael was yearning for salvation and received it.

So sad...Michael was a tormented lost soul, thru no fault of his own, bizarre? No misunderstood by many...a product of an abusive childhood, he was crying out for help, but where was the professional intervention that he needed? No one came to his rescue. He tried to love the world thru music...hoping to get love back, something he had never had. And although many loved him it was the few who condemned him and acused him that broke his heart and his frail spirit. But this world is a cold and cruel place...no place for a child, for in his mind Michael was still a child in a 'fairytale world' called NeverLand! But praise God, he's in a far better place now...the ultimate paradise, where there is no sleepless nights, pain, suffering, sadness nor tears. He is in the presence of his 'real' heavenly Father who loves him so much, that he died on the cross for Michael...and boy is he putting on the performance of his lifetime singing and dancing on the clouds with the angels! You Go Michael!!!!!!!!

It is so comforting to hear of this encounter; although Michael did not verbalize the sinners prayer doesn't mean God did not touch him at that time; God has ways of reaching a person right where they're at.

A seed was planted or watered and I choose to believe God brought the increase; it's important that we know that God is not limited to saving a person just by them quoting the sinners prayer because there are those who have quoted and did'nt really mean it.

I hope that Michael did accept Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior.

I do hope that this article is true. I hope that Michael Jackson got saved before he died. It seemed that he was in poor health physically, and also spiritually as well as perhaps emotionally. But praise God, before his self-destructive ways could actually kill him, The Lord saw fit to draw Michael to Himself. Somebody was praying for him obviously. Prayer works!
