My name is Fátima. For many years I suffered from various sicknesses and I went to many witch doctors, but they did not have the solution. One day, someone said that I should try going to church to see if my circumstances would change. Thanks to God, he put everything right when I submitted myself into his hands. When I told the brothers at church, who were teaching us about baptism, that I had “things” at home, they counselled me to bring them with me on the day that I was to be baptised so that they could be burned and I could experience a new life in Jesus Christ. I did as they suggested, and on the day of my baptism, we burned the things I used for witchcraft. Since that day, I have not suffered from the spiritual problems or illnesses that had led me to have those things. I was introduced to witchcraft by my family. This is what happens when someone is born into a family that doesn’t know Jesus. Whenever someone falls ill, the family tends to take the patient to witch doctors, believing that they can help, but in fact it only harms them.

Today, I am free by the grace of God. I want to praise him forever and ask him to help me to stand firm because I do not want to go back to my old lifestyle.
