Praise Report

Freed from Bad Habits, Experiencing Great Favor

When I was sixteen, I sought the Lord earnestly as I was hungry for the truth. I read the Bible intensely, sometimes studying it for up to fourteen hours a day. Although I became very knowledgeable about Scripture, my life did not bear fruit as I still struggled with pornography and temper issues. This didn’t make sense!

One day, a church member gave me some of Pastor Prince’s sermons to listen to. When I heard his teaching on the Benjamin generation, it sounded strange. But as time went by, I realized his teachings were according to God’s Word and they began to make sense.

I changed my mind about God and saw Him as a good Father instead of someone out to slap me for every failure. I learned that God loves me even in the midst of my sins. This radically changed my life and my relationship with Him came alive!

As I continued to see and receive God’s abundant grace, things started to fall into place. I was freed from my pornography addiction and I’ve not indulged in pornography or masturbation for more than four years now. Praise the Lord!

My school grades also improved and I began to apply for very well-paid internship positions. Just within a few weeks, I was offered a position!

This was truly God’s grace because there were other applicants who were pursuing better degrees in very prestigious schools. I studied business but I was offered the same type of position as a peer who was pursuing a computer science degree in a top-ranking university. Only God’s favor could have made that happen!

After I graduated, the Lord provided me with a very good job and I now work with a Christian coworker whose company I enjoy. My manager also seeks opportunities for me to be promoted and I was the first employee to be granted reimbursement for a Master of Business Administration program!

Today, I’m also leading a small group in church where I’m blessed to be a blessing. I sponsor their activities and food and I hope to lead them in the gospel of grace so their lives can be transformed like mine.

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for preaching God’s grace. Ever since I started listening to your messages, I’ve been experiencing God’s powerful grace and bountiful favor in my life. Even to this day, I try to watch your sermons every day.
