I grew up in a loving Christian home and have always desired to have a deep relationship with the Lord. But in my youth, I learned that I needed to be a “good Christian” and that meant I had to perform well and not mess up. So I always thought I had to please God by behaving perfectly or He would not be pleased with me.

After having my first child twenty years ago, I suffered from postpartum depression. That was when I began to build a deep relationship with the Lord by studying the Word, especially scriptures on healing. I remember discovering that Jesus healed throughout the gospels. I was so excited because I was never taught that He heals, even today! I even remember holding a Bible study session with some women in my home and sharing my excitement about what I was discovering about Jesus and His healing. But during that session, one woman walked out because she thought I was simple-minded.

Eager to know more, I then went to my pastor at that time and asked him to explain more about the phrase “your faith has made you well” in Mark 5:34. I did not receive a satisfactory answer and that led me to seek, inquire, and learn truths from various other well-known pastors for twenty years.

But complete healing did not occur for me until I heard Joseph Prince teach on receiving healing and not trying to “get” healing. I opened Destined To Reign and felt like I was reading about myself when Pastor Prince mentioned he had suffered from anxiety, depression, and self-condemnation. I had been suffering those exact same things for twenty years!

I was suffering from self-condemnation, especially because I had been taking medication for sleep, anxiety, and depression disorders. Did the pharmacist think I was mentally unwell every time I picked up my prescriptions? How was I going to take care of my children? Was my husband going to be there with me? In my mind, I was wondering why healing was not working for me. I was also teaching and leading women for twenty years that Christ loved them and He was not mad at them, but I was not believing it for myself.

Well, five kids and bouts of depression, anxiety, insomnia, and fear left me bedridden eight years ago. I was completely depleted, not wanting to live. I was taking five types of medication a day and had been on sleeping medication for ten years. I could not understand why I was not healed and I felt so condemned that I had to rely on medication. Deep down, I knew I could live in divine health but something just was not clicking.

With much support from my family and friends, I began to heal but I was still determined to wean myself off the medication. I wanted to be free from all of it. I also knew that the Lord had a call on my life to teach His Word and share with others that He does heal today and is our health.

One day, as I was taking a walk listening to Pastor Prince’s teaching on the Holy Communion, I felt a stirring in my heart to learn more about it. I started taking the Communion on my own. Each night before bed, I would take Communion and thank the Lord for exchanging His wholeness for my brokenness. I also began taking it with the women’s Bible study group I was holding in my home. As the Spirit led me, I began to sleep without any medication. Then, little by little, I began to take less medication.

Six months after studying, professing, and receiving His health, righteousness, and soundness of mind, I stand whole, grateful, and full of joy! For twenty years, what I had been searching for was revealed to me through Pastor Prince’s teachings. I am now free of condemnation, fear, and depression! Praise the Lord! He has also allowed me to minister to women, to set them free, and live the abundant life that He died to give us.

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for seeking the Lord unceasingly and for sharing the truth of His grace! It has set me free and blessed my family and me. I am sharing God’s grace with others and watching the Lord set them free! There is no greater gift! Our women’s Bible study group is even joking about taking “a little field trip” to visit your church in Singapore!

Bless you, your family, and your ministry!
