Is This Your 9th Baptism: The Mystical Number of Completion!

Nine baptisms. One soul, searching. And a mystery hidden in the number 9 that changed everything.”

Read the story the church never told you…

I was baptized nine times in my life.

Nine times I stood before God and said, "Wash me again, Lord. Let me be clean. Let me be close."

Some might say it was unnecessary. Some ministers told me once was enough, but I didn’t believe them.

Because what they didn’t understand was this: I wasn’t running from sin. I was running toward God.

Every time I entered those waters, I felt the Presence. Every time, I felt the Light of God descend upon me. I would leave with a heart bursting with joy, like Heaven had reached down to say, "Yes, I see you. You are Mine."

Each baptism was more than a ritual. It was a sacred cry of my soul to feel whole again, to shake off the weight of shame, guilt, and fear that religion had wrapped around me like chains.

But what I didn’t realize back then—what I understand now—is this: I wasn’t becoming holy. I was remembering that I already was.

What If My Story Is Yours, Too?

Maybe you’ve felt the same. Maybe you’ve longed to begin again, and again, and again. To feel worthy. To feel pure. To feel—finally—close enough to God.

Maybe someone told you once was enough, but your soul said, "No… not yet. I need to go deeper."

Let me tell you something, from one seeker to another:

Every return to God is sacred. Every cry for closeness is heard. And every baptism—physical or spiritual—is holy.

The Mystery of Nine

When I look back now, I know that nine baptisms was no accident. In the language of Spirit, the number 9 is the number of completion, spiritual fulfillment, and sacred awakening.

Nine is what comes just before the rebirth. Nine is what says, "You are ready now."

For me, the ninth baptism was not about getting clean—It was about being claimed.

It was the moment I no longer chased worthiness, but stood in it.

And maybe, just maybe, you’re standing in your ninth moment now…Not another baptism in water—But the baptism of remembrance.

Come As You Are

You don’t have to be perfect. You don’t need permission. You don’t even need the words to explain it.

You just need to know:

• God still sees you.

• God still welcomes you.

• And the Light is still waiting to rise in you.

I walked through the water nine times. Not because I was weak—But because I was called.

And so are you.

Come again. The Light is still here. And this time… you will remember.
