Testimonies

I had been addicted to pornography and masturbation since I was 9 years old. I was so bound by this addiction that at one point, I even visited a prostitute. I still remember weeping bitter tears after that because I knew I had messed up.  

For many years, I would hear Pastor Prince preach about how sin loses its power on us when we start to live under grace. I could never understand how to apply that to my life and thought I just had to manage my sinful addiction for the rest of my life.  

Whenever Pastor Prince read out testimonies of people who have been set free from porn addiction, I would ask the Lord, “When is it my turn? Why are other people receiving their breakthroughs but not me?”  

When others would lift up their hands during worship, I always felt ashamed to do it too as I would feel like a hypocrite. Looking back now, the Lord was always near to me and was mending my broken heart.  

One night, as I was on my way home in a cab, I felt the Lord’s presence touching me. I felt His love filling the crevices of my heart. Just like how Jesus set the Gerasene demoniac free, the Lord came to me and clothed me with the garments of His salvation and His robe of righteousness. I started to weep uncontrollably in the cab.  

I finally understood what Pastor Prince meant when he said that grace is a person. The revelation of grace is the revelation of Jesus! As I continued to behold the Lord, my life transformed, not by self-effort but by freely receiving the abundance of grace and gift of righteousness. It has been nearly 3 years since the Lord has set me free from my addiction!

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for boldly preaching the gospel of grace. It has changed my life forever! God bless you.

I left an abusive marriage of 12 years, and my kids live with my ex-husband. I only am able to see them twice a year because I live 12 hours away.

After my last visit to see my kids last year, I fell into a deep depression. I couldn’t get out of bed and slept up to 20 hours a day. Medications didn’t help me. I lost 58 pounds in 5 months because I couldn’t eat.  

Pastor Prince, I have been listening to your sermons on the holy Communion, literally for 24 hours on some days. I let them play as I sleep and listen for the few hours I am awake.

The revelation I received on the Communion has helped me step out of such deep darkness and depression. God showed me while I was standing in a line at Walmart waiting for my medication that His daily bread was my daily healing—for today, not yesterday or tomorrow, but today. Like with the mana that fell, if the children of Israel tried to keep it for the next day, it would spoil. Every day God provided new mana.  

God told me it is the same with the Communion. That today He supplies all my healing through the elements of bread and juice, the simple things that represents what His Son did on the cross. And He said to me that when tomorrow comes, He will provide me with new bread and new healing for that day. So I began to take the Communion every day, and especially when I had really dark moments. 

And here I stand depression-free. God has restored hope in my life. Understanding the Communion better has given me hope and showed me that without Jesus hope is just an empty word. 

All praise to God for His revelation! And thanks to people like you who never stray from preaching His truth.

I was a problem teenager. I hated studying and was addicted to pornography. I also had a bad relationship with my family and always had conflicts with my high school teachers. I disrespected my teachers and would often play truant.  

When I didn’t do well in my examinations and didn’t receive offers from any university, I started giving up on my life, wasting days doing nothing but playing video games or watching pornography. I felt like a failure. But thank God He did not give up on me even when I’d abandoned everything.

One night during dinner, my father was listening to Pastor Prince’s sermon. It was different from anything I’d heard before. No one had told me that I am the righteousness of God in Christ and that all my sins had been forgiven. I felt peace inside me, and I began to listen to Pastor Prince’s sermons too. The more I heard the message of grace, the more I understood God was not against me but for me, and in Him there is therefore now no more condemnation. When I believed right, I started to live right.

The Lord freed me from my addiction to pornography, and I started on my advanced studies. As I rested in Jesus, He gave me the strength to work hard. By God’s grace, I received offers from 2 universities!

Thank You, Jesus, for finding me. And thank you, Pastor Prince, for sharing the message of grace. I now know we can reign in life through the Lord’s grace!

In September 2019, I was diagnosed with breast cancer. The doctors found a 6 cm tumor in my breast and detected cancer in a nearby lymph node. My family had already been partaking of the holy Communion on a regular basis but after this diagnosis, we partook of it daily, declaring what Jesus did for us on the cross.

I studied and read many books on healing, including Joseph Prince’s book Eat Your Way to Life and Health. I started chemotherapy and shortly after, I could no longer feel the tumor. I knew I was healed but it would be a while before I could confirm it with the doctor. I stood firm on what Jesus said in His Word and when doubt crept into my heart, I would listen to sermons.  

Two weeks before my surgery to remove what’s left of the tumor, I was quarantined at home. I was getting headaches and was afraid and anxious that it was a sign the cancer had spread. Then I happened to chance upon Pastor Prince’s live sermon Dwell Safely in the Secret Place on Facebook.  

At the end of the service, he called out someone watching who has a growth in her breast and declared healing. He also ministered to people with migraines who were afraid of telling the doctor about them. I was sobbing! My headaches stopped, and I knew that message was for me.

I went for my surgery and despite all the doctors telling me it was unlikely all the cancer would be gone, the pathology report came back showing I had no cancer left in my body! They called it a full pathological response (disappearance of all invasive cancer in the breast after completion of chemotherapy). God has healed me, praise be to the Lord!

Since then, God has been prompting me to share the message of grace and the holy Communion with someone every month. I gift them with Pastor Prince’s devotional and the Communion elements along with my testimony. I’ve already heard back from several people that the Lord is changing their situations too!

I started attending New Creation Church and received Christ as my Lord and Savior when I was 23 years old. Since then, the Lord has poured countless blessings into my life and completely exceeded my expectations.

However, there was an addiction I couldn’t seem to get rid of. At the age of 16, I started smoking and became bound by the habit. The addiction got so bad I often started and ended my day with a cigarette. When I was stressed and burdened, my first response was to smoke.

Even when I was resting, I would want to smoke. I tried to quit many times, but I could not make it past 2 days. Every time I tried and failed, I would condemn myself and feel guilty. Some of my well-meaning friends and family members would also add to my sense of condemnation by saying things like, “You’re not giving glory to God when you smoke.”

Last year, I decided to try to stop smoking again. However, during the middle of the week, I gave in to temptation and ended up smoking even more than before. This time, though, I practiced what Pastor Prince always taught: speak and declare that I am the righteousness of God in Christ, even in the midst of my addiction.

So I spoke and believed that I am the righteousness of God in Christ even when I smoked. Whenever I did that, I felt like a hypocrite, but I just kept declaring and resting in the truth that I was righteous in Christ despite my actions. At the end of that week, I smoked my last pack of cigarettes and asked the Lord to not let the craving return.

It has been a year, and I no longer have a craving to smoke cigarettes! For 7 years, I had been believing and hoping for deliverance in this area. In less than 7 days of declaring the truth of my righteousness in Christ, deliverance came—without any withdrawal symptoms!

Thank You, Lord Jesus. I am finally free of my smoking addiction after 14 years!
