I am a Gulf War veteran who, like many others who served in that region, experienced health issues years after. I was a believer then, but my relationship with God wasn’t personal.
I started having horrible migraines that drove me to my bed. I went from doctor to doctor, trying to find the root cause. Then I started experiencing peripheral neuropathy in my feet that caused me to have to use a cane or walker. I was a barber at the time and owned a barber shop, beauty salon, and supply store, but it was sold because of my health issues. I became extremely depressed and was diagnosed with major depression disorder.
One day, sitting in my garage, I decided to take my life. I had an external pain pump containing morphine. I was able to manipulate the device to give myself a heavy dose that I thought would kill me. Miraculously, I woke up, and Pastor Joseph Prince was on television. I have no clue how his channel was on, but I thank God!
I started listening to Pastor Prince day and night. I would listen to his sermons all day at Joshua Tree National Park near my home. I did this for two years, learning how much my Father loves me. One of my most significant breakthroughs came when I started partaking of the holy Communion. I was on twenty-six different medications then. I’m down to five now. I didn’t remove the medicines myself; the doctors did.
This journey through the roughest points of my life would not have been possible without understanding that I’m the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus. Today I am doing so well. My family is blessed, and I’m in a great ministry that preaches Christ-centered messages. It is so true—right believing leads to right living, and I’m so grateful for the ministry Abba Father has given Pastor Prince. Thank you, Pastor Prince, for obeying God.
