Personal Stories

Pastor Prince, my daughter made plans with two of her female friends from church to travel throughout Europe and Greece in July 2016. Even though our family and friends had concerns about her traveling in a time of global unrest and violence, my husband and I felt peace from the Lord and did not object to her plans.

My father had always been against Christianity and he would scold those who tried to evangelise to him.

In 2015, I started watching Pastor Prince on Trinity Broadcasting Network and got hold of his resources. During that time, I was struggling with my modules in school.

One afternoon, I watched one of Pastor Prince’s sermons on Psalm 91, where he encouraged us and our children to memorize that portion of Scripture. Pastor Prince showed a video of his son reciting Psalm 91, which really touched my heart.

I have been listening to Pastor Prince’s Healing Scriptures audio companion for over a year. I like to listen to it in the morning, in the shower, and at night because the chosen Scriptures set to the background sounds make me feel peaceful. I have also been praying for wisdom and to hear the Spirit clearly to be led by the Lord as Pastor Prince suggested.

Earlier this year, I had been told by my supervisor that the company had to let me go because the firm was struggling amidst the COVID-19 pandemic. They needed to cut costs and unfortunately that involved the removal of my role. Just like that, I was let go the following day.

Up until a few months ago, I was addicted to cigarettes and marijuana for 18 years and also to pornography. I had tried many times to quit all three because I knew they were wrong but felt so condemned that I couldn’t. The pornography addiction led me to massage parlours, which then led to me feeling even more condemned than before, as no one knew I was doing this.

One morning at about 2am, I was awoken from my sleep and decided to pray. I also wanted to drink water from the fridge, something I don’t usually do because it means I will have to use the washroom later and that disturbs my sleep.

Pastor Prince, I have seen the hand of God all over my examinations. It was wonderful!

One morning during my usual prayer time, I felt an urge to confess Psalm 91:1 over myself. Later that day, I was cooking lunch for my family and was boiling a large saucepan of water. The pan was filled to the brim. As I stood watching the water boil, I thanked God for His grace. Ten minutes later, when I took the saucepan off the stove to pour the water out, the water spilled onto both my hands.

Ever since Covid-19 hit, I started tuning in to New Creation Church Online every week. The message of God’s unmerited favour, grace and love has brought me countless of breakthroughs—even more than what I have experienced in the past 30 over years of being a Christian.

I was in despair and depression to the point I had started to believe that God had turned His back on me and left me. One night, I cried out to God and asked Him to send me a sign. At this point, I was honestly ready to commit suicide. I had made up my mind that if God no longer cared, then I had no reason to live anymore.
