Life Turned Around, Happier And Healthier Than Before
When I was nine years old, I told a lie and shortly thereafter my mother died. I thought God had taken her from me because of my lie. A few years later, I accepted Jesus as my Savior. I was taught that my sins were forgiven up to that point when I was saved, but that if I backslid, I would be condemned. So I lived with a sense of condemnation for most of my life.
My earthly father drank and never came home. I felt unworthy of love so I fell prey to anyone who would show me a little kindness and soon fell into a life of sin. I had three bad marriages, three bankruptcies, and a child out of wedlock that I raised on my own. I attended countless therapy sessions, read self-help books, and participated in self-improvement groups. I also became deeply involved in a church that failed to take care of my spiritual needs.
A couple of years ago, I found Joseph Prince on my television and he opened my eyes to the gospel of grace and to the love of the Father that I could never grasp before. I began reading everything I could find on God’s grace and listening to Pastor Prince’s sermon CDs as I traveled (an hour a day) to and from work. I traveled to New Jersey to hear Pastor Prince on his last visit to US and experienced the Spirit for the first time.
I have fallen in love with my Lord and Savior and I find I can’t hear enough about His goodness. Every day, I declare God’s goodness and thank Jesus for His finished work that has made me completely whole. I also pray in the Spirit. I am sixty-five years old but feel like I am thirty. I am healthier and happier than I have ever been. I have a new house and have been promoted. I look forward to finding a marriage partner to share my blessings with.
Pastor Prince, thank you so much for your blessed ministry. The Bible makes sense to me now and fills me with joy. I have started taking Biblical Hebrew lessons because of your explanations of scripture in the lessons I see each week. I pray God will continue to reach many more lost Christians as your message of God’s grace spreads across the globe and I look forward to a continued partnership with your ministry. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!
