Hello, my name is Malika Witt. I'm originally from Maryland. I grew up in the African-American
Caribbean household. I grew up in church, I grew up a Seventh-Day Adventists
and I would say even though I went to church, I didn't have a personal relationship with God. I
didn't have I guess that more so encounter or more so revelation of who He actually was and didn't
really have any much to know I guess about the Holy Spirit. I grew up in a loving loving household.
I know my parents and my siblings and my family members loved me very much but I would say that
I still dealt with a bit of rejection and kind of like a bit of loneliness and kind of just feeling
unwanted and just really not knowing like who I was, I know when I grew up in my childhood I
was like very jovial or very just full of joy and like that had was always like trying
to make people laugh and was always happy and I think a shift happened more so when I was in
middle school I would say. I remember kind of just like feeling like there is more to life, more to
like there had to be more and I remember kind of craving like more so like those
I guess those spiritual experiences that like I feel like you know that question was like
oh there has to be more to life, there has to be more to just going back, going about
the day-to-day and so I started to so I saw myself starting to dabble into like new age
practices and I remember this one time, I was doing yoga and the yoga instructor was
like you know if you meditate while if you fall asleep while you're meditating
that means like, you're really tired so I remember like okay I'm meditating and I
remember like having this outer body experience where I was like looking down like on earth it
sounds really crazy but I was looking down on earth and I was just like out of my body
and then like she was like banging on the chimes or whatever she was doing and
I remember like coming back and I remember ever since then I've been, I was like really craving
those experiences again. I went to this youth conference, my freshman year of college and I
remember like just like hearing like the music and seeing like a whole bunch of people my age like
really be on fire for God and really like like loved Him and worshiped Him with like nobody like
and not caring what anybody thought and I remember like seeing them worship God and not really
caring about what anybody thought about them and I remember knowing that I had to forgive someone and
I just felt like this peace come over me and I remember having like feeling like this
hand was on my shoulder and I remember opening up my eyes and looking around me and there was no one
there. I think ever since then, it changed a lot of things for me so unfortunately after that
I started to kind of fall away I guess more so in sense of being more legalistic with my religion
and I think the weird thing about legalism that it looks like zeal so I was very like you know
like I was just I guess just very zealous but not so much in a good way. 2020,
where I was just like the anxiety, the depression was just really heavy and I remember thinking like
God like if there's anything there, you know like it needs to go so I remember going to like my
prayer closet in my apartment and I was just like saying that over and over again I just started
manifesting and growling in my closet that started just like a Deliverance Journey that the
Lord took me on and that's where I got to know about Hungrygen and Pastor Vlad and the demon
slayers and eventually would come to the 2022 spring discipleship internship program here at
Hungrygen and I would say that's where the Lord really answered all of the questions that I had
the legalism, the spiritual experiences that I had when I was younger, the depression, the anxiety
all of those things would start to like unfold and the Lord would meet me where I was at like I said
the Lord took me on this Deliverance Journey where I got deliverance from just different things that
I got delivered from just many different things like spread of witchcraft, antichrist spirit
just being delivered from different things and just also like generational
curses. I think after that like I even like my family members and people when I came back
from after internship they just said like you know like you look different like and I
honestly felt different like I felt like just more clarity and just more at peace
and feeling like the wall that I would hit with my relationship with God was kind of just like lifted
and I just felt like I could just that condemnation and that guilt and that
shame that I felt, that would kind of I guess bridge, that would kind of prevent me from
running to Him was just was removed and I just felt so more like at ease and like I can
do, you know this Christian walk with the help of the Holy Spirit. Culture, society
will not give you those answers that you're looking for, only Jesus Christ can and if you give
Him a chance, I can assure you that everything that you're in search of and everything that you're in
longing of, He can satisfy. So, if you are willing to give Jesus your life today, say this prayer with
pray with me, say, Dear heavenly Father, I repent of everything I've done wrong against You. I repent
of my sins. I believe that Jesus Christ is Lord, I believe that He lived and died and rose again
to set me free and to forgive me and wash me of all of my sins in Jesus Name, Amen.
