God Set Me Free

My story is a testimony of how no one is beyond the saving grace of God and how his perfect love and truth set me free from a life of sin, deception, the devil, and the pits of hell.

My Life Before Jesus

There were no Christian roots in my life, I never really thought about Jesus, I was an atheist. In 2002 I made a deal with the devil and became a practising psychic medium, involved in all occult practises including witchcraft, meditation, crystals basically everything in the bible God forbids well I did it. Looking back Its clear that I was deceived by the devil- blinded to the truth of Jesus.

Many Christians tried to reach out to me, but I was vile to them. My heart was extremely hardened, life was all about glorifying myself. Very much focusing on materialism, ego, fame, and fortune, always seeking but never finding, you get the toxic cycle. My life was also very challenging, deceived into believing it had to be testing and that there was simply no other way for me. Instead, my only escape was toxic situations and basically all of the wrong things in life, living very much in the world I simple didn’t know any other way.

It All Went Wrong

In 2016 my life began to spiral out of control, circumstances were extremely horrible, but – looking back I can see how God had his hand over my life. I felt trapped, with no way out and at this stage I began to practise every single previous occult practise to help me and to set me free, but nothing was working, something wasn’t right?

I just ended up deeper in the pit, something was stirring in me, and I began to be repulsed with the psychic work, but the more I tried to escape the devil fought me back, at this stage I sensed huge heavy chains, bound to this life that I no longer wanted. Confusion set in because the deception had led me to believe I’d been working for an angel of light. I was clearly held captive to my sin, and the clutches of the devil.

My insomnia was worse than ever, I was getting sleep paralysis all through the night, night terrors and drinking ridiculous amount alcohol each night mixed with medications to try numbing the pain. But I was just sinking deeper into despair and anguish. thoughts of death began to engulf me, and I wondered if that was my only escape. This went on for a few months and I was literally clinging on for my life. I was dead inside and completely broken.

God Came In

One evening reaching an all-time low in the utter pits of hell. Sobbing hysterically on the floor, crying out for someone to help me. I’ll never forget what happened. A huge presence filled the room with light, it lifted me off the floor and I felt this strength pull Me out of the pit. I was pulled out of the darkness and into the light! Then God spoke with a strong audible voice,

“Hold on to me my child, I’m about to save you.”

With his voice and presence, carried a huge hope and I can say I’ve never felt such relief. In that moment God breathed life into my dry and dead spirit.

Even though I’d never acknowledged God I just had an immediate discernment that this; without a doubt was God. He had turned up when I was at the absolute end of myself in all of his Glory to rescue me, even though I’d worked against him my whole life- from the darkness into his glorious light!

God’s Word Changed Me

The following morning on waking I felt a peace I’d never felt before. I just knew that things were about to change. On my social media there was two scriptures (supernaturally had to be from God as I followed no Christian’s) John 8-32 and you shall know the truth and it will set you free and John 10-10. John 14-16. They really spoke to me, taking myself off to sit by the sea, I didn’t own a bible but found the book of John online and began to devour the book. Instantly I could feel God ministering to me, but the penny hadn’t fully dropped on id been working for the devil. But I just knew all of the occult stuff had to go. I set to on this and removing everything from social media.

Builds Up Relationship

The next few days I spent every minute with God, building a relationship with him it didn’t take long for God to reveal my sin in which I repented of, which brought me closer to Jesus.

New Journey

God then began to embark me on my new journey with him, a series of events (that’s a book in itself) guided me to The Living Hope and my army. But I still needed restoration, healing and I urgently needed to get me out of the situation I was in. God spoke clearly and said he was about to change my whole life and I just had to trust him.

First Worship Event

The following day I went to my first big church event, as the worship music began, I felt a huge stirring in my spirit. The Holy Spirit moved in such power; I’d never felt anything like it. This was my first major deliverance. This was my moment I realised all the deception I’d been in; I must have cried all the way through. I knew I was back where I belonged in the arms of my Heavenly Father- I’d come home to The Lord.

The Farm

At the event I met a lady who ran a Christian retreat, the next day I packed small bag and as I drove to my new life- I didn’t look back just forwards to my new life in Christ.

All that worrying going round in circles trying fix my broken life and God just sorted it. There’s nothing God cannot do.

At the retreat I was so hungry for God, I’d do whatever it took to be free from my former life, He asked me to lay down everything that didn’t serve him. I gave up the money, the cars everything from the old… it all went!!!! I was laid bare it was just me and God, the perfect ground for restoration.

What Did God Do?

Within several months God set me free from insomnia, night terrors, medication addictions, swearing, alcoholism, anxiety, depression, demonic attacks and oppression, smoking, love of money, vanity obsession, materialism, past trauma. God gave me a peace I’d never felt before, he showed me perfect love, and most importantly he gave me a hope and a future. God began to change my heart; it was softening. He completely restored me in every way. For the first time in years, I was no longer oppressed with the demonic, but free.

I had a new family of Christian’s around me. My spirit couldn’t get enough of God as I threw myself into church and life groups. As I let go of everything from my former life, I had to start again from scratch, but God provided above and beyond for me, a basic car, place to live, everything. I really didn’t know what I was going to do for a career. I’d worked for myself my whole life, THIS AS WELL AS BEING HUMBLED WAS CHALLENGING BUT God had a perfect plan.

I started in a nursing home mopping the floors in the kitchen (4 years ago). If we fast forwards to now, I am administrator manager in a nursing home, in charge of the front of house…only God could have done that! Last year God blessed me financially with a big payout, I was able to buy a new car also.

God also restored family situations, those that I deemed could not be fixed and even my mother came to salvation.

It’s been a huge journey with God, with much, lessons and trials but I can look back and see the reasons for everything, but without a doubt quite simply the best thing to happen to me. I no longer battle through life on my own, I have such a loving father. To think I worked against him my whole life, pulling others into sin by the occult work, speaking against him – but he showed me so much mercy, grace and took me into his loving arms. He set my chains free my rescuer, redeemer! As I said in begging, no one is beyond the saving grace of God!
