Daddy Yankee carries the name of Puerto Rico and that of Latinos high throughout the world. He has been in charge of presenting reggaeton in every corner of the planet Earth and with tremendous success. He has achieved everything professionally and is grateful.
But for him, his greatest achievement has nothing to do with material things, but with the turn he was able to give to his life after experiencing one of the most difficult episodes. Through his Instagram profile, he revealed what was the turning point that fostered his relationship with God and multiplied his faith and love for him. “No one stops me,” he remembers what he thought when he was living in full professional madness conquering each scenario. How wrong he was, he has recognized in this video, a most personal statement with which he has moved and surprised his audience.
He recognized that when he looked most unstoppable and strongest, something unexpected happened that marked his existence forever. A fact that is sure came from God to put a stop to it. “He told me, ‘I’m going to send you an executioner,’ I didn’t see that coming, never and never… He sent me an executioner called health,” he explained seriously.
“One day I am in Colombia on the verge of death, I am in the hospital on the verge of death, one foot here and one foot there… I have been on the verge of death on several occasions and I can tell you about the experience of what what the angel of death sees, to feel it there,” he confessed.
Yankee said that he was shot when he was young in a brutal way. “I was hit by many bullets, I am miraculously alive, God did a miracle with me since I was little, he protected me from death. Do you know what it’s like to have 47 rifles thrown at you?… I know what death is and being on a hospital stretcher on the brink of death too,” he continued.
A testimony as emotional as it is heartbreaking of how those hard experiences finally led him to the word of God and made him understand the meaning of life. It was while he was almost more on the other side than here, when he asked the Lord for an opportunity, he said. “If you revive me and help me and don’t let me die, I will serve you,” he added.
A promise that has been followed to the letter ever since. The artist has dedicated himself to serving himself and others with love and dedication. That is his purpose and that is how he wants to convey it to people who, like him at the time, did not know it nor wanted to see it. “Even those who reject God receive sustenance. “He makes his sun rise on the evil and the good, and makes it rain on the just and the unjust,” he continued with this video on his networks that has surpassed 10 million views in just 12 hours of its publication.
