God Experience - Alexander Bolotnikov

Just like Solomon, Alexander Bolotnikov asked God for wisdom & knowledge. He wanted to get a good education.

Growing up in Russia his opportunities to get a higher education were very limited. He wanted to go to the United States to complete his education, but he did not have the funds to do so.

Watch this video to see how God answered Alexander's heart felt prayer.
