God showed up big time. He healed me, fixed me, cleansed me, and now.. I have no other choice but to shout it out to the world, I’m so grateful. He saved my life, changed me, grew me and brought me to this moment. I’m so excited,” shared Jess Ford.

“You’re spirit lead from the darkness
Held down in bondage I could barely see your light
All of my tears, now they mean nothin’
They’re all for you, I’ll be a living sacrifice
I’ll walk through the fire
I’ll stand in the storm
I’ll praise your holy name
Like a lion I will roar
I’ll shout your name
And cease no more
I’ll offer you my pain
And I’ll praise you in this storm
Though my flesh and my heart may fail
My strength is in the Lord
Oh, oh, oh,
Oh, oh, oh,
Oh, oh, oh,
Completely shattered, I was hopeless
You cracked my weakness like a broken pot of clay
You healed and gathered all my pieces
Your grace extends beyond the pain of yesterday …”
