Delivered From 27 Years Of Hard Drugs Addiction And 33 Years Of Masturbation

John 8:36 – If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.

The wonder-working God of the chosen that breaks yokes and gives total deliverance has done something tremendous in the life of our brother by delivering him from the bondage of sin.

Read his testimony below:

My name is Joshua Dominic. I reside at Ijesha. I joined Chosen on 11th September 2025, I want to thank God for making me a Chosen. I grew up becoming an injurious and notorious person, I’ve based in Port Harcourt almost all my life, and from a catholic background. My parents were not serious with God, so I came to port Harcourt at the age of 11 and by the grace of God someone took me to a living church where I got to know the Lord and began doing his work and at age 12 to 13, I began to change due to peer group I started taking cigarettes to Indian hemp to cocaine from cocaine I was initiated into cultism with 60+ men in my group.

Then before you know it, they all started dying due to one reason or the other till it remained me, and since then, a lot of deadly proposals have come my way, but God in his infinite mercy spared my life several times.
So after my cult members died, I decided not to involve myself in any cult group again. But hard drugs held me bound for 27 years, I have gone to churches but no way out. Then in February last year 2024 I started selling everything I had to purchase these drugs until I was left with nothing even the house I was living in, I couldn’t pay for the rent anymore that I started living in the ghetto, a ghetto where thousands of hopeless and helpless people are in Port Harcourt. The place is as big as an estate, and they make all kinds of hard drugs there, and I was living there In fact I became a lunatic, I will be moving from the dustbin to the dustbin picking and eating things, that was what cocaine did to me, it turned my brain, and I became useless, people lost hope in me… But my mother never lost hope in me, she kept on praying for me and saying I was ordained from the womb to serve the Lord, so I would not die.

In the ghetto where I was, people kept on dying in their numbers, and once a person dies, they will throw the person’s body into a big river at that ghetto, and the fishes there will eat the body. So the cultist group I joined, all the members of that group kept dying till it was remaining 2 out of the 60+ people, myself and a guy, so I went out on getting back I was told my friend Emmy was dead I was shocked so they took me to where they kept his dead body, I saw him lying hopelessly and helplessly dead, so it was remaining me in the cultist group, then I said to myself I will not die like this. So one of the days in the ghetto, a lady was saying if she dies, she hopes her family will come pick her dead body to bury her cause she doesn’t want to be thrown into the river like the others, so I told her so you want to die here and said to myself God forbid I will not die here God help me.

God somehow made a way some money entered my hands, and I didn’t spend it on cocaine, I kept it instead and used it to travel to a living church at Ogun state from Port Harcourt on the 22nd of February 2024. I decided to go to the rehabilitation centre, when I got there I made enquiries and they told me they have closed entry for that period and I should wait till September, then I went back to the auditorium of the church and was sharing the experience I had at the rehabilitation centre with a brother there when a man of God passed and went far but came back and said ” the Lord said I should tell you that you don’t need rehabilitation, you need Jesus Christ instead, and it is only Jesus Christ that set a man free from bondage, and a lot of people have gone for rehabilitation up to 4 times but still continued taking drugs, as soon as he made that statement, I remembered some of my friends that have gone for rehabilitation came back but continued taking drugs, then he quoted achapter in the Bible which I can never forget “John 8:32 and 36 KJV: And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free”.

If the son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.
So i used that bible verse to pray and surrender my life to Jesus. Brethren, I want to tell you that this is 2 years now, and I’ve not tasted cocaine or even cigarettes again, before I used to consume 3 packs, even clubbing all stopped.

Then one day while I was still at that church in the month of September I saw myself in a dream putting on the chosen apron dancing and rejoicing with them, then I woke up, I told it to a brother and he said maybe God wants you to go there, but I waved it off, but since God delivered me, I have been looking for a church where I can get the raw word of God and I have gone to churches in port harcourt but I found none, and since I decided to wave off that dream, it was like God took peace away from me, I kept on having that same dream, but I have never thought of going to chosen for one day, but I said God if it is your will for me to go to chosen, please make a way, and I soon as I made that prayer, God made a way by providing me with 10,000, then I knew this is a confirmation.

The next day very early in the morning I took my bag and traveled down to Lagos state from Ogun state it was the 11th of August on a Wednesday, I met them singing and praising God so I joined, they told me it was a deliverance service and the man that ministered to us took us to a pastor that was ministering to people one after the other, then when it got to my turn, he looked at me and shook his head and said ” brother, do you know you are a man of God that has been running away this from call ? Do you know the mercy of God upon your life is so much? He said, do you know the people you did something with, all are all dead, and you are the only one living? I couldn’t hold back my tears, I kept on crying and was thinking nobody knows me here, so who told him and I’ve never seen him before neither has he seen me before , I became humbled and wept like a baby, he ministered to me, encouraged me and told me not to go yet I should wait till Thursday where I would hear the word of God from our General overseer.

Then on that Thursday, when the man of God mounted the pulpit and after the message while he was praying he mentioned my case and said ” I break that yoke of masturbation over your life” I claimed the prayer and from that day the yoke of 33 years of masturbation ended, I was a man that couldn’t stay for a day without masturbation but this is 2 months now and I haven’t masturbated, it now becomes irritating and repulsive to me.

My second testimony:
My friends who died as a result of cultism back at the ghetto, I kept seeing them in my dreams, and we do things together just like when they were alive, and one day the man of God mentioned the case, and that dream ceased. There was also a strange woman I saw in my dreams, but when the man of God mentioned the case, I stopped seeing the strange woman again.

And lastly I want to share a revelation I had about the rapture, I was taking a nap one afternoon when the Lord opened my eyes, and i saw the heaven opened, multitude of angels with trumpets singing and marching uniformly and it got to a point where they all stood with trumpet in their hands and took it to their mouth and they blew it, the sound echoed very loud… Then where the Bible said in “1st Thessalonians 4:16-17, “For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first, then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord”.

So I saw some people that have been buried already who made the rapture come out of their grave and with speed go up in the clouds, then the people that were alive who also made the rapture were caught up in the clouds with speed as well… Then I saw the people that missed it disappointed, crying and running, parents forgot their children, father forgot his family, nobody cared about each other anymore… Everybody was running, then I saw pastors wearing suits were running also and people were asking each other so you missed it too? Everybody were crying “we are finished”.

Then the antichrist came and took over the people, they lined them up in front of a very big warehouse where they were giving people the mark of the beast 666 boldly written on their foreheads or at the back of their palm. As soon as they were given the mark, they would enter into the warehouse nobody could resist getting the mark, only one man tried to resist, but they cut off his hand, then he said give me the mark… The mark was given to him when he entered the warehouse, I was also on the queue, crying and saying, “God I will not collect this mark, does it mean I will be doomed for eternity?” When it got to my turn, I ran back cause I wanted to see the end of the queue but the queue was endless, then I fixed myself again into the line still crying and asking God to help me, then the Lord gave me a verse 1 Corinthians 9:24-27, then I woke up.
