About the author
Byron van der Merwe
4 books2 followersByron van der Merwe and his wife, Tammie, have been joyfully married for 20 years and are blessed with two wonderful children, Hannah and Joshua. Originally from the sun-soaked lands of South Africa, today they call the rolling hills of England home. Together, Byron and Tammie carry a burning passion for the local church and a deep desire to see every believer rise into the full freedom, love, and destiny God has prepared for them.
For over 15 years, my life was marked by battles I never saw coming—seasons of loss, sickness, fear, and overwhelming hardship. There were times when hope felt out of reach. Yet in every dark valley, I saw the light of God's goodness shine through. He carried me. He healed me. He fought for me when I had no strength left to fight for myself. Not once did He fail.
One quiet afternoon, as I sat on a beach in Greece, looking out over the endless horizon, I heard the voice of God whisper to my heart:
"It's time to make your private victories public."
In that sacred moment, I knew my story wasn't meant to stay hidden. It was meant to ignite hope in others.
Testimonies of a Good God was born out of that encounter.
This book is a living invitation for you—to believe again, to hope again, and to trust that the same God who rescued me will do the same for you. Within these pages, you'll discover the scriptures that became my lifeline, the truths that broke my chains, and the powerful ways God's Word can equip you to stand firm, no matter what storms come your way.
This isn't just my story—it's a promise.
A promise that you are never alone. A reminder that your battles are not the end of your story. And a declaration that your victory is already being written by the hand of a good, faithful, and unstoppable God.
No matter where you are right now, remember: God is still working. He is still faithful. And He will turn all things—yes, all things—for your good if you will simply trust Him.
The best is yet to come.
