For twenty years, I battled a cocaine addiction that was holding me back from serving God like I wanted to. In 2008, I joined World Changers Church (which is pastored by Creflo Dollar), but my addiction continued to control me, and it was getting worse.

In September 2010, our church hosted a healing conference. I had never heard of Richard Roberts, but I went to the conference and listened to him preach, and then he laid hands on us. Deep inside my heart, I heard the Lord tell me, “I chose you, Antonia. I chose you.”

After the evening service, Pastor Dollar asked who wanted to plant a seed into Richard’s ministry. I told God I would sow my last $10 into that offering because I could feel that He had touched me that night through Richard’s ministry. I didn’t know exactly what happened inside me, but I knew God had done something in me!

It was not until after the healing meeting ended that I realized I had been set free. I had been delivered from a twenty-year cocaine addiction in a matter of a second.

As of today, I have been clean and drug-free for over twenty months, and I now have a job as a substance abuse counselor. God has blessed me so much, and I am grateful to Him and to Richard Roberts for praying for me.
