Next month will be the 2 year anniversary of when Jesus set me free from years of mental torment (Clinical Depression, PTSD, and Dissociative Identity Disorder) through deliverance (casting out demons). Since that day I have not had one symptom of any mental illness.

Since the anniversary is coming up I have been reflecting on how He set me free, the journey of getting there, and what the last two years have been like. Several things stand out to me. One is how rebellious I was toward Him and how nasty of an attitude I had. I wonder how many miles I spent in the wilderness based on my refusal to fully submit to Him?

Another point that stands out is God told my dad He would heal me in the desert. We moved to Arizona in 2012 and God told him that when we first moved. I was not set free until six months before we left AZ. That was a promise from God that my dad never let go of for eight years.

I gave my heart to the Lord when I was eighteen years old and pretty soon after that He started speaking to me that He was going to use me to heal others both mentally and physically. Over the years those same words have been prophesied over me many times, and He continued to speak it to me. He showed me visions of me teaching from a stage, and also laying hands on people in prayer. The sicker I got the more I put away what He had spoken to me. It was in the back of my mind, but let’s just say it was on life support..I almost let that die because I was so sick. I could not see it ever happening and I was close to giving up. When God set me free in 2020 He birthed Fullness of Joy Ministry almost immediately. Since that time He has used me to walk numerous people through deliverance and healing. He has also given me messages to teach and share on various platforms. His promises are yes and amen. Even when we cannot see it, and we have no idea what is going on He is working.

I want to encourage you to stand on His promises and don’t lose hope. Look to His Word for His promises for your life and spend time talking to Him. I also want to encourage you to surrender your life to Him fully. Lay everything down at His feet-your hopes, dreams, fears, identity, your will, plans, future, and your past. Lay it all down and allow Him to tell you who you are, who He has created you to be, and what plan He has for your life.

Blessings,
