This is a one-for-all thread for each member to post a brief testimony of how the blood of Jesus Christ, the grace of GOD has delivered you from your past bondages. Smoking? Drugs? Lust? Anything, post a short example.

How long did it take before you were delivered? How serious was the issue? How did the deliverance happen?


I was delivered from smoking marijuana several years ago. There was a bread man praying on my behalf at that time, while preaching to me as well at the place where I worked. That is when I finally got saved as well! I tried to quit on my own, prior to being saved. Somehow, GOD reached out to me. It seemed out of the blue, but GOD delivered me so fast after I accepted Christ.
 
I was saved in 1999 but held a secret,i was fighting with alcoholism.I not only lied to others i lied to myself.I tryed to end my life so many times and depression got far worse.Then one night i screamed out to God to take my addition, that i created, away from me.I surrendered,i admitted i could,nt do this alone and my prayer was answered in Febuary 2004.By the Grace of God i was not only saved i was also freed from addiction.Thank you Jesus.
 
Excellent testimony sister! Praise GOD. Alcoholism is a serious issue for many, some who do not even realize they have a problem. I thank GOD you were delivered. Jesus is our Redeemer
 
I can say with a triumphant attitude that after a hard-won battle I have been deliverered by the blood of Jesus (& through the knowledge of the Holy Spirit) from suffering with these past bondages: - depression, - binge drinking and revelry, - mental fixations, - lustful thoughts, - insatiable appetite for astrology & seeking psychic advice etc, - severe social anxiety (still a little hormonally-related anxiety left), - feeling stuck under demonic oppression, - extreme negative speaking (others' helped me realise i did this). how painful these were, and how long they dragged on, when they held me under their power. yet there is no power greater than God. whilst there is still the odd 'giant' left with which i'm in the middle of conquering, they're not as giant as they may have been before. there is of course a daily battle to not open (or re-open) doors to anything which may seek to put a hook in, but i know who i am in Christ- and I can now discern 'things' much better (- If I may say so myself Lol.)! Amen.

Jesus is an old friend of mine in relation to my years here, I first met Him 37 years ago and I experienced new birth and was baptized in the Spirit. He has delivered me from many things like drugs, alchohol, tobacco, pornography, lust for women, bigotry, and hate. More recently (the last 6 or 7 years) He has been delivering me of self, religious mindset and good works through the power of the cross and this has been much more intense for me. I have been blessed to witness the delivering power of Jesus in thousands of people over the years and one thing I have noticed is, we usually do not come to understand the full reason and purpose. He does not deliver us so we can be somebody even a good somebody, but rather He delivers us from the things that hinder us from taking up our cross, and following Him.

Deliverance from Witchcraft

God delivered me from witchcraft. I had gone to see a palm reader about getting a so called "boyfriend" back. The ad said, 'She could help put relationships back together. As I drew closer to her house, I saw the silhouettes of these things encamped around her house. I thought I was hallucinating . As I had kept rubbing my eyes. It disappeared. I realize now they were demons.

She told me that someone had put a curse on me and that's why I was having problems with relationships. Soon afterwards, the demonic visitations started. I had quit seeing this palm reader but the visitations continued on. Usually, it happened while I was asleep.

These demons would take me to outer darkness which I didn't know was hell at the time. Sometimes, I would see myself hovering over my body as I laid in the bed. Or I would see my children lying in their bed. Then , instantly, I was back into this outer darkness.

Maybe it was a year or two before I was delivered from this spirit of witchcraft. The Lord led me to this church that believed in laying on of hands. There was a preacher man there having revival.

After trying to get high all day from wine and marijuana. I had gone to this church. I sat down. All of a sudden, I heard a sound like big snake hissing. People started running out of the church. I didn't know the hissing sound was coming from me.

The devil had total possession of me. He spoke thru me and said I was his child and that he was going to drag me back down to the depths of hell with him. He spoke in a very ugly voice. Two men held me as the preacher had started praying for me. They cast six demons out of me.

But there was one still left in my mind. He had my brain hurting so bad I thought it would explode. I had started crying but the man of God had continued to pray for me. When he cast the last one out in the name of Jesus. I laid on the floor as if dead.

I found myself back in outer darkness. It felt like I was in a cave and I was sitting on the ground with my back against the wall all alone. Then, I felt a presence in there with me. This presence lifted me off the floor and escorted me towards this great light. He said, "Lo I will be with u always even until the ends of the earth."

After I had gone thru the light, I rose from the floor. I had started jumping up and down. I kept shouting, "I'm saved!" "I'm saved!" A week
L8R, I had received the holy ghost and began speaking in tongues. God had delivered me from smoking cigarettes and marijuana, alcohol, cussing, bar hopping, man hopping etc.

Recently, He set me free from all sexual impurities. God is good all the time and all the time God is good. God is not thru with me yet.
