Set Free from Years of Struggles and Addictions
Pastor Prince, I’ve dealt with shame and feelings of unworthiness that led to perversions and addictions since childhood. I tried year after year to live right, to be in right standing with people and with God, but it never lasted long enough for me to get to the other side.
I was made to go to church as a child while my earthly father used me. I first met the heavenly Father when I was twenty-nine, because that’s who I believed I needed first in my life. When I turned fifty-five and was still struggling, I wondered why I could not get what my heart needed.
About 6 months ago, I finally asked God to show me who Jesus really was, and boy, that’s when living turned into life! I heard the grace message in my heart, not just in my head. I saw you on television and read your book Destined to Reign. I started partaking of the Holy Communion because of the free book you gave me.
But I still struggled to keep a lid on my behaviors until the day I heard, “Return to your first love.” That was it! My whole life had been about loving myself. But when I remembered it was Jesus who truly loved me first, I could finally forgive and be healed to wholeness. The struggle to be a Christian is now gone.
Right believing has truly led to right living. I am free! No more drinking, smoking cigarettes, or taking marijuana. Even perversion has no more hold on me. I no longer have to look for people to love me because I now know the true love of God.
Thank You, Father. Thank You, Jesus. Thank you, Pastor Prince.
