drawn to them. These and other things like this are recruiting tools into
satanism and witchcraft. Of course I did not know that at the time. I got
into some serious fights that could have taken my life. I was in circumstances
I could have easily died in. I know if it wasn’t for praying Christian
parents I would have either died or given my life to satan at that
time, because I was looking for something—especially a sense of belonging.
Coming to Christ
A dear friend of mine named Michael came back into my life. He was a
Christian and never judged me too much about what I was doing. He
hung out with me and eventually in January of 1995 I asked the Lord to
forgive me, and I gave my life fully to him. I had gone so far from God,
and opened myself up to so much demonic activity, that I didn’t even
feel any difference after accepting Christ other than the fact I felt
lighter. I knew I had to get out of the area. I lived in a small town of
east Texas and would basically work by day, drink and party by night. I
only had bad friends with the exception of Michael. I needed to relocate
to get away from all that was there. I knew I was spiritually weak
enough to go back if given too much opportunity.
So Michael and I decided to move to Dallas. We had a friend there that
was living with his grandmother. We were able to sleep in his room on
the floor until we got an apartment. This went well and his grandmother
was kind to us. A minister named Russel heard of our sleeping conditions
and took Michael and I into his home. It was a beautiful home
that was an honor to live in. Russel and his wife were very kind to let
us stay there and save enough money to get an apartment. This time
in my life was a time of spiritual foundation in Christ. I was going to a
church that taught the word and put an emphasis on knowing the scriptures.
I memorized scripture, prayed, and read the Bible regularly.
Russel water baptized me in Lake Ray Hubbard and also helped disciple
me. I am very thankful for him. He was a gift from the Lord.
I knew that I was called into the ministry. While growing up my parents
would always send us to summer church camp with the Assemblies of
God. I always had encounters with God there. At the age of 15 God
told me I was called into the ministry. Even though I fell away from
God as bad as I did, I know these times in my life prepared me for
what I am today. None of these encounters with the Lord were wasted.
I know now that generational curses and spirits were the cause of almost
all of the problems my family and I had when I was young. My
parents agree with this. What exactly was it in me that was so rebellious
and why was it there? Why did I have so much rejection? These
