Not An Ordinary Walk Volume 1
Not An Ordinary Walk, is an autobiography, which is a true story that reads like fiction. From the time I was a child until now, the Lord has given me the gift to see the sights of our unseen world, angels and demonic forces that rule and reign here on earth and in the heavenly realm.
Although, raised in the Catholic religion, our family did not have a strong spiritual foundation. My father was an alcoholic until his late sixties. Alcohol and the bar life was a big part of our upbringing. There were times, at an early age, mom sent me into the tavern to bring my Pops home. In that era, we watched movies like the “Bad News Bears” and the family motto was sticking it to the man.
With no real direction in life, in my early twenties I became a drug dealer. Living life in the fast lane, working with the Mob, eventually filled my life with heartache. I was empty and lost, trying to fill the void in my heart with money, drugs, relationships, possessions and status.
Lacking the love I so desperately needed; with no hope for a better life, I wanted to die. However, God had another plan: One that would take me down a path not of my choosing. He orchestrated events that happen to me I thought would be terrible, but ultimately, as the events would unfold it became the most freeing and exciting time in my life.
Arrested and sentenced to prison, He brought me to a place of full surrender to Him, accepting Jesus as my Lord and Savior. I had the joy of experiencing God up close and personal hearing Him speak.
He blessed me with many gifts: As in Ezekiel 37:1, “The hand of the Lord came upon me and brought me out in the Spirit of the Lord, and set me down in the midst of the valley; and it was full of bones.” The hand of God pulled me out into a bodiless realm, floating and moving at the will of the Lord. I witnessed with my own eyes angels and demons fighting in the spirit over the souls of men, including mine. The Lord gave me the gifts of healing and of prophecy enabling me to edify and bring comfort to men. I also received prophetic dreams of my future as well.
As you read, you will see that the kingdom of God is indeed inside all who believe in Jesus.
It is our hope that as you read this testimony you will feel God's presence and His Love.

About the Author

Tom and Michelle Balenti along with their four children Jacob, Joshua, Jeremiah and Joseph attend Calvary Chapel Beachside in Huntington Beach Ca. We are a Christian family who believe in the simple truth of the Gospel.
For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved (John 3:16-17).
The Lord called Tom into the ministry of serving the homeless through worship and teaching at our Church's soup kitchen outreach "Hearts of Compassion," as well as aiding in the worship and teaching at our "If You Thirst" ministry.
When Tom began writing the book 22 years ago, he never thought in his wildest dreams that one could prophesy through visions, signs and wonders, while rebuking the devil seeing angels beating up demons through the name of Jesus Christ.
Now that it is finished, the goal in this book is always to bring glory and honor to God, who counts us worthy to be used by Him, and that it would draw you closer to Him. We humbly ask that you read this testimonial book with an open mind, to find out how God changed a man from a worldly man, to a man who loves and serves God. We hope that you too may learn how to listen to the voice of the Lord, using the gifts, which He bestowed upon you. One thing we do know is that you cannot put God inside a box. He does things His way and many times differently than we would expect Him to.

“For My thoughts are not your thoughts, nor are your ways My ways,” says the LORD. “For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways, and My thoughts than your thoughts. For as the rain comes down, and the snow from heaven, and do not return there, but water the earth, and make it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower and bread to the eater, so shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; It shall not return to Me void, but it shall accomplish what I please, and it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it” (Isaiah 55:8-11).
