I started drinking at 14, by the time I was 28 I was unable to hold a job because alcoholism if you let it will turn you into a 24hr drinker it's a disease that wants you dead, Jesus saved me too I called on his name when I for the first time didn't want to drink and I was hit with something so amazing right there and then all my anxiety and everything vanished in the blink of and eye and I had a feeling inside and all around me that everything was going to be OK, that happened on the Friday night I then woke up on the Sunday with a thought so powerful and a feeling that I couldn't get rid of that was telling me GO TO CHURCH TOM, I was baptised in the holy spirit two weeks after going on that very Sunday for the first time I'm still there now Jesus Christ is King of Kings he will do it for you and I pray more addicts come to jesus Amen
Amen! Been down this road. Binge drank on weekends for 30 years but Jesus pulled me out of that over a dozen years ago and I have been on an evangelism team for the past 11.
This man reminds me of myself. I was foul mouthed, sexually immoral and violent, and Lord Jesus changed me from the inside out. He made me a new creature. Now I don't curse, I am married and faithful and I put insects outside whenever possible. Glory to God.
@@ladennayoung2939 I put them outside if I can, but the more dangerous ones or the ones that pose a risk of infestation I will take care of them the old fashion way.
Amen! I was a binge drinker for 19 years-age 14-33. Crazy part is I didn’t even know I had a drinking problem. This was a generational curse that passed down. Happy to say I have 3 years sober and couldn’t be happier. God works in mysterious ways and I didn’t understand why my life was falling apart, but in reality God was purging all the toxic people, places and things that no longer served me. ✨🙏🏼
My father was an alcoholic thank God I did not get his gene we need to pray that gene is not passed down to our children and grandchildren!!! Stay strong everyone 💕💕🐝
WOW. I know exactly what he’s talking about. When I was in active alcoholism I could NOT get to sleep with out drinking myself to sleep because I was so scared and could feel the demonic heaviness in the room. I thought I was the only one that went through this. The feeling of being watched, feeling the covers being pulled if I nodded off to sleep or feeling a breath in my ear or bangs on the wall. I could NOT peacefully get to sleep with out being drunk. And these things would tell me “just drink/just get drunk and you can sleep/you’ll be able to get to sleep if you have some drinks”. It was pure hell and I was scared every night so I would get drunk enough to pass out or pick up some guy from the bar to stay with me for the night so I didn’t have to be alone and scared. What a way to live, right? So glad Jesus has me now♥️
@@ladennayoung2939 He is so good!!🙏🏾🙌🏾🥹🩷 I’m just glad it wasn’t all for nothing, I have a testimony that can hopefully help others out of the darkness to find Jesus 🥹🩷
This testimony was an eye opener, because I am struggling with alcohol, but like him I've been getting convicted, but unfortunately my husband loves to drink and can care less about God Jesus or anything Holy. But I am asking God to deliver me, because he's really been patient with me. This was awesome!
@@bajangenetics400 it can be better. I’m still asking God to take this stronghold off my life and it hasn’t been easy while dealing with a spouse who has the same issue. Please keep me lifted in your prayers. Thank you!
@@renee5603 How about I walk this journey with you and we keep each other lifted in prayer!! I love you and im rooting for you all the way in The Bahamas!!
These testimonies are bringing me to tears every day as I seek a connection with the Lord. God bless this man, his heartfelt testimony will stay with me. Thank you for creating this channel.
I was scared straight to god glad it happened as I was stubborn and was overdosing constantly demons were closing in...I'm saved now and been with god ever since.
AMEN. ALL GLORY, PRAISE, AND HONOR BE UNTO GOD AND GOD ALONE. AMEN. I PRAY YOUR STRENGTH IN THE LORD IN THE MIGHTY AND MATCHLESS NAME OF JESUS CHRIST OF NAZARETH. THE NAME ABOVE ALL NAMES. AMEN. 💜💛❤️
Thank you for your powerful testimony. When God dealt with me about forgiveness for my abusive parents, He told me He would heal me from the pain of the memories, He did just that! I felt so free Friday m all the bitterness and strife. God reconciled the relationship between me and my mom, The relationship had a chance to grow to something beautiful for 12 years until she passed away in 2014. God is a deliverer and a healer. God bless you!
Amen. Thanks for sharing. I'm sorry you went through that but I'm glad that God healed you and restored your relationship. God bless. I'm sorry for your loss. THE JOY OF THE LORD IS YOUR STRENGTH. AMEN. 💜💛❤️
Great testimony. I found a lot of similarities between his path and some of my own including the demons at night...feeling watched...feeling the bed shake/move....For anyone who experiences these things, command "In the name of Jesus" to leave you alone. Jesus will never leave you. He loves you so much, and if you only knew how much....
Hallelujah!!! Beautiful testimony. I thought U were my age!!! 40s! The Holy Spirit ages us beautifully! God continue 2 bless U, Ur wife, 6 children & all Ur grandkids/bloodline til Jesus comes back in Jesus Name!
I was like that had a bad mouth and out of no where God took that from me and I can talk without even cursing. It’s amazing and just out he does out of nowhere. Praise God
This testimony touched me so much because the love of God is so real and it touches you in a way that when you finally realize it's there no one can take from you!
I need this God is on time cause Alcohol and party sometime I also strat young drinking .God you did it for him I'm believing you can do it for me please help me Lord
You can do this. Deliverance is your first step. That is what I needed to free myself from the demons I let in thru getting high. That's when God came into my heart.

Bro I love these. You can tell Jon is a cool wise dude. And I know the channel is dedicated to testimonies and that’s awesome, but I noticed Jon said how he and his wife got together is a whole other story… I’d love to hear that! Maybe divinely appointed marriage testimonies could be a subsection for your channel? Christ centered of course but it’s just something I haven’t seen and something I think single people would be interested in hearing. Or at least I would. Idk I just thought I’d share that. Either way, keep it up these are EXTREMELY well made 🔥🔥
Thank you bro! & thank you for the encouragement. The testimony of his marriage is actually really powerful and like he said in the video, it is a whole other story, which is why I didn’t go there, but we will! Coming soon!
My daughter just died of alcoholism 3 weeks ago. Drinking over 20 years, refused to admit she had a problem, refused all help, hospitalized. 2 x a year ago and went back to drinking in 7 months. Left a 13 year old son for me to raise alone. Went to church a few times, obviously didn’t receive Jesus as her savior! Lived with me all her 41 years, free , I went to same church weekly different time. Can’t understand it. Refused to admit she had a problem and refused all help. Drank in secret in her room. Beyond comprehension to me😢
My grandmother said that it was a choice that Jesus got crucified, and I didn't understand what she meant back then. But I've thought about it and I think it means that he could have chosen to stop preaching and teaching about life and love or ran away and not been crucified, but he chose to keep teaching despite knowing that the powers that be would be foolish and do that. And also this is one of the best testimonials I've heard and thank you sir.
Thank you for your testimony prayers please because I've been drinking alcohol beer I believe in Jesus I know he has a plan for me but I can't get off the alcohol because I'm scared that I'm going to have a seizure or die because I've been on it so long I really would like some guidance I pray everyday for God to help me get off of this I don't even like it
Consider this your sign to check yourself into a detox and get off the drink. I'll pray for you that God will give you the strength to do it. I know it is a mental and spiritual battle
@@somethinggood9267 thank you greatly the only thing is is I have a son that's 4 years old and I cannot leave him I just want to try to slowly wean myself off of this but I've got to have the strength to do it and God can only do that I need to leave it at his feet
@@carrieanthony5883 you don't have any parents or mother-in-law or father-in-law or friends that you can leave your child with while you go to detox? What about someone in your church? I'm sure they would gladly help
Even though Jesus and God helps with recovery, I still feel like I have lots of karma to pay for my alcoholism, put my poor handicapped dad through hell and my destructive behavior kept neighbors up yet they still never called the cops so now I have all this remorse towards myself which makes sobriety harder than just drinking and forget about thing's.........
I know exactly what you mean. keep your reading your Bible daily and ask God to take the spirit of remorse and shame away from you. I'm sure your father is proud of you. God bless!
I don't know how to get ahold of you but and you probably won't even read this comment but I really wish I could inbox you and talk to you from the bottom of my heart because I really need help I'm just scared that I'm going to die if I quit cold turkey on beer
I mean then don't quit cold turkey my friend, ween yourself off it. Should be okay quitting straight up off of just beer unless your really drinking a lot of strong % beers. But just have a couple if you need to and pray and do other stuff you enjoy and just stop on will power. People who are drinking a pint or two a day of liquor are who might die if they stop cold turkey. There is also medicine and doctors who can assist an alcoholic to stop, like have special training an knowledge about it. Can get help and supervision. Good bless you and be well my friend, get the help you need an have a good fulfilling love filled life.
My best advice is have a few if you feel you need to, then have less the next time, and then take a break as long as you can or stop completely, if you take a break a guarantee the next time you try to drink a beer it will be unappealing or just like wow I can't believe I could drink a lot of these at once. Anyway good luck my friend you can absolutely do it, find support if you need it, much love.
@carrieanthony5883 Where ever you are. Whatever city. Reach out to any local church you can find. Tell them you need help. Or try online services if you can. Like anything like this one - www.crisistextline.org/
Maybe cause when he speaks he is pronouncing it to occurr. Just like we need to watch the negative speaking cause that also happens. This is my 3rd testimony I have viewed from your channel and noticing people are from MD/DC so far. Are you in DC filming testimonies?
Would love to listen, but the background music makes it unbearable for a HSPs. Appreciate the vids without. Good content does not need this... Thank you!
I didn't understand where you said a black guy used to help you. Did he not have a name and what did the fact that he was black have to do with anything. I think you might need to correct that. I found it offensive.
Ask the Holy Spirit why you're offended. Remember, Jesus said, If your enemy curses you, bless them. If you're offended, it means there is offense in you. You won't find any Godly person in the Bible offended.
The man being black had nothing to do with it. Some people don’t realize what they are saying. I’ve done it myself. Sometimes I say “this asian guy helped me” or “and I met this german girl on the bus”. It’s a habit that is hard to get rid of.
I started drinking at 14, by the time I was 28 I was unable to hold a job because alcoholism if you let it will turn you into a 24hr drinker it's a disease that wants you dead, Jesus saved me too I called on his name when I for the first time didn't want to drink and I was hit with something so amazing right there and then all my anxiety and everything vanished in the blink of and eye and I had a feeling inside and all around me that everything was going to be OK, that happened on the Friday night I then woke up on the Sunday with a thought so powerful and a feeling that I couldn't get rid of that was telling me GO TO CHURCH TOM, I was baptised in the holy spirit two weeks after going on that very Sunday for the first time I'm still there now Jesus Christ is King of Kings he will do it for you and I pray more addicts come to jesus Amen

This year I quit drinking, I know it’s only February but I no longer crave any alcohol, thank the Lord

@@Nick3y777 I put some insects outside (ladybugs, stinkbugs). But I stopped putting spiders, flies and other nuisances outside 😀.
You take care of insects? I'm asking this for a legit reason.
@@ladennayoung2939 I put them outside if I can, but the more dangerous ones or the ones that pose a risk of infestation I will take care of them the old fashion way.
