I am not a writer, but I will write this as holy spirit leads ... and I'm sorry if there's any error in it

I was held captive for over 12 years,it all started when I was in junior secondary 2 , the devil used my brother unknowingly he did it innocently, he taught me how to download games on sefan.ru ,I did something else on the site I started watching pornography even though I wasn't sexually active ,I became so addicted to the extent that I could masturbate thrice a day , I masturbated everyday if I am not exaggerating , I wasn't in control of myself anymore I couldn't control the urge even when I tried to quit, oh yes I felt guilty everytime It happened..I cry sometimes and always ask God to forgive me but I was always finding myself in it...I struggled with Masturbation, the devil then added sexual perversion to it after I was sexually active, I had no control of my own body , sleeping around , my life was nothing to write about, useless should have been a befitting word for my life , I graduated from uni , went to camp ,all through these years I was living the life the devil wanted, wasting away not until 2021 , the year was hell ,I got depressed nothing was working for me, my life was stagnant it was totally blank ,I didn't know what I'll be doing after service, I cry myself to bed everyday, nothing excites me..I isolated myself from people, but fortunately i didn't think of suicide, I am sure it was God's grace, when I felt I was useless and nothing works for me I met a Muslim cleric through a friend, paid thousands of money I had left for solution, he gave some soaps to bathe with..none worked I called him to be aware of the situation, so he requested for some personal informations and he later told me , some evil people has done some things that made my life to be stagnant that I needed to make another payment for cleansing...that was December 2021, I was home from where I was serving for festive, and I should add this I am from a Christian home, my dad is a pastor but I noticed the devil is mostly after Christian homes (if he can't have the devoted parents, he will go for the children who are not in christ), now fast forward to how God had his way , after the alfa told me that, I was scared because ...even if I wasn't doing what God's wants I knew you can't drive away darkness with darkness, I opened up to my dad and he told me something that changed my life today he said " I want you to try Jesus, do what he wants and see the difference " that word changed my life , ever since I got saved , I have been enjoying God's grace, signs and wonders in every way ...I am using this medium to let you know ...no matter what you have done , come to christ he will forgive and give you a new life.

Glory be to God.
