Joshua Giles dreamed of playing professional baseball. He'd do anything to achieve it.

He said a prayer at 12, but never had a personal relationship with God.

And at 22 years old, he was about to encounter a curveball that he never saw coming.

Joshua, suddenly in your life the supernatural became more real than the real. What happened?

Absolutely. You know, at 22 years old, I begin to, you know, it's funny because there's a thin layer

between the natural and the supernatural. And one day, God just lifted the blinds. And literally,

the supernatural world became so much more real than the natural

and I'm like, what is going on here? It was terrifying because the first thing that I began

to see was what was affecting my life, what I had allowed in my life through, you know, sticking

my hand into iniquity or sin or things that we just don't think may not have consequences. We don't realize

some of the things we allow into our life. And I remember seeing all these demonic entities

lining up every night coming to, you know, attack me. And I couldn't sleep. I remember sleeping

with the light on, you know, didn't even want to go to the bathroom at night.

That doesn't work out too well when you're an athlete. Oh, no, God. I mean, if you don't sleep, you don't have your endurance. Oh, I was tired. I had to go to school and eight hours of baseball. So it was tormenting in the sense of exhaustion. And that really led me to the point of where I was just done with it. and I cried out one night in prayer and I said, God, kill me or deliver me. And that's when everything began to change. What happened? I went to a game the very next day when I'm playing a team, never played before in my life. I'm in the outfield. You know, we're having our pregame, you know, rituals, so to speak, for baseball where everybody's, you know, preparing for the game. And a young man from the other team came over and he looked at me and he says, hey, he says, hey, he says, you had a car wreck five years ago. The devil tried to kill you in, which I did. I hit a guy head on at 80 miles an hour when I was 18 years old and walked out that night from the hospital. one of the first times that God began to protect me. And he says, you're being attacked at night by demons. God wants to deliver you. And I'm sitting here like, what in the world is this? But I felt it. And I had to pray the prayer the night before. Next thing, you know, he lays hands on me. I feel the presence and power of God touched me. I've never felt that free and uplifting like a weight had been lifted off of me. So I go back to the dugout and I'm just rocking back and forth like, God's called me. God's called me. And my teammates look at me like, you're crazy. What are you doing, you know? And all I could focus on was there was no more baseball. I was focusing on what just happened here.

But your whole life was baseball. I mean, in every level you were at, you excelled. You were the best.

Yes. And you had a sure type of career in professional baseball. And just in a second?

Yeah. In a blink of an eye, I felt my heart's transition because I'd never encountered
