Delivered From Alcohol Abuse & Growing In The Lord
For 10 years, I struggled with alcohol abuse. It was a social habit that became an addiction. I managed to hide it for the most part but the last three years of drinking found me in trouble with the law on three different occasions. I was making extremely bad choices as well as dangerous ones. I knew that I was in deep trouble.
November 18, 2009, was the night it all changed for me. I was arrested for a possible DWI (drinking while intoxicated) and was in danger of going to jail. I admitted myself into a behavioral health unit the next day.
That night, in my room, I broke down and cried out to Jesus, knowing that it was time to turn my will over to Him. I can’t explain what happened next. Other than an incredible sense of Jesus’ presence, I felt warm and safe and knew that I was going to be all right. I began sobbing because of His pure love! That night, the obsession to use alcohol was removed entirely from my body.
Not long after that, I was introduced to the ministry of Joseph Prince. I had prayed to Jesus to be directed to a source that could help me better understand the Word. I believe that source was and is you, Joseph. I have your read books and watched your sermons. They have given me revelation after revelation.
Today, I understand that Jesus is my Lord and Savior, and that my Daddy God loves me and guides me to where I need to be all the time. I am greatly blessed, highly favored and deeply loved! I know now that I am here to share His love with whoever is in need. I am here to speak the Word to those ready to hear it. God’s grace is amazing and I am constantly moved to tears when I think of how amazing it is...and Jesus, oh how I love Jesus!
I am grateful that the Holy Spirit has filled you, Joseph, and I am so thankful that I have come to know your ministry. I am so moved when I watch you preach on television every morning. The music that your church produces is amazing! God has blessed me so much! I see how He is working in my life daily. It is incredible. Please don’t ever stop preaching the Word, Joseph!
