“Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God. And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.” 1 Corinthians 6:10-11
At the heart of every alcoholic or drug-abusing addict is someone experiencing unbelievable pain. I know because, after every painful experience in my life, I desperately looked for ways to make the pain stop. My drug of choice was not alcohol or any substance. It was a knife to my chest, a rope around my neck, a hairdryer thrown in the tub, a swallowing of rat poison, a sitting in the car with a banana in the tailpipe and waiting for it all to end. My addiction was thinking of ways I could destroy myself. If I knew I hurt anyone, in my mind, I wasn’t worth living. I mean, I would cry if I ran over a squirrel in the street.
But Jesus.
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus!
He delivered me. He pulled me out of the fire I set, and showed me who I am in Him. My sister, the blood of Jesus removes every bit of our shame until nothing’s left but His glory resting on us. The truth of Jesus screams louder than the lies and any tormenting thoughts until we are saying what He says about us. The love of Jesus reaches deeper than any pit our hands could ever dig for ourselves until our hands are reaching up in praise. He cancels every condemning word spoken over us until we are standing tall and strong in His righteousness. That’s how deep His love goes!
Prayer: Lord, thank you for meeting me in my deep place. You are my Savior and my healer. You are my deliverer. Thank you for washing me clean and forgiving me. Over and over again, you met the depth of pain with a love that runs much deeper. Continue to teach me who I am in you and be glorified in my life. I am beyond grateful for your grace and mercy.

I’m grateful and thankful, He came to save a wretch like me. He will meet you at your lowest point as we surrender, submitting it all to Him and allow Him to be God of our lives. This is so touching because at the age of 9, He saved me from swallowing all those pills. As we grow, He grows within us as we allow Him to be God. 😭😭
He Is Worthy To Be Praised 🗣️!
Sister Kesha, thank you so much for sharing how you got out the pit and being held captive in your mind. You’re helping set the captives free. 👏👏
💐🙏❤️❤️
Thank You JESUS!!! Praise You LORD!!! Amen
I thank God for your life my sister. Oh, how your blessing. Your transparency is powerful. People need the real and someone they can relate to. You encourage me to testify even the more of what God has brought me through and the power of His love at work in my life. Words can’t fully express how much your devotionals mean to me. So many times they are on point and exactly what I need to hear in the moment. I love you my sister. God has brought you a mighty long way. I thank God for your life. 😭🙌🙏🏽
If your being blessed by someone’s ministry as the Spirit of God leads you, support that ministry. A sister in my church has published a book of devotionals that has blessed me. I buy books from her and give them to others to support her ministry and bless others who God will touch through her anointed Holy Spirit inspired work. I just thought tonight to buy some of Kesha’s devotionals too and give them away. When you see someone genuinely doing God’s work for His glory and not their own and to see lives changed-people delivered, saved, healed, etc support them. Especially those in your own churches, families, etc. To many times people go out and buy books, etc by world renown people but will not buy from and support those in their own circles. This is not good. Support the renown but don’t forsake your own. One pastor said, I buy from and support the businesses of people in my own church. Let us support one another like this. If a ministry is blessing you, expose someone else to it, so that they can be blessed too. If you have your own ministry, business, school, non-profit or whatever tell people about others ministries, businesses etc. At the end of the day, we are or should be in this to glorify God and get His work done in the earth. Let’s unite and do just that. It is not about us; it is about Jesus. I don’t know Kesha personally, but her devotionals are changing my life. I feel led to support her ministry. If you feel led by the Spirit of God, please do the same. Share the blessings and expand the work of God. Love you all. 🥰
Praise Him for pulling all our roots up! Making us new!
This devotional reminds me of a song by Tasha Layton, “Look What You’ve Done”
Hope it’s all right to post link to lyric video on YouTube… https://youtu.be/uqEdqaZNt6o
May His Peace continue to cover you sisters! God Bless, Jennifer
Wow. What a beautiful testimony and a reminder that GOD truly loves me.
Like the prodigal son, I was once lost but now I’m found; I was blind, but now I see 💃✝️
Glory, I rejoice in the Lord because I know where He brought me from, and I’m excited about where He taking me in the days, weeks and years ahead 🤗🙏
Our testimonies are to be shared for others to be encouraged and set free from their own bandage through the power of the Holy Spirit living in us.
I am not ashamed of the gospel of CHRIST! Those who look to Him are radiant, their faces shall never be covered with shame.
Hallelujah. 🙌🙌 Thank you woman of GOD for your testimony, and your obedience to “thus saith the LORD” 💯💯
