hey what's going on guys chip boy sir Vaughn just wanted to hit you guys up and pretty much out you know I've been feeling you know letting my spirit to shoot a video and kind of explain a little bit more in depth on what happened to me back in 2003 it was a life-changing experience that totally changed my life forever it and actually changed the direction of my path that I was actually living at that time in 2003 I was 23 years old which was over 10 years ago I had an experience where I actually seen the Lord Jesus Christ at Swedish Medical Center in Denver Colorado my whole life I had lived um a life of you know drug addiction alcohol addiction I was addicted to the party lifestyle I was pretty much addicted to everything that was contrary to having a relationship with God um you know from the age of 12 you know I was already you know pretty much addicted to marijuana by the age of 14 I was already experimenting with drugs such as crystal meth shrooms I was already in trouble with the law you know breaking into houses and stuff you know pretty much whatever that whatever to support you know my habit you know I was already you know becoming you know you know an alcoholic you know somebody that just could not function unless I was you know doing drugs or I was drinking and you know um just you know pretty much a dark you know path a dark lifestyle you know at that time when I was young you know it was fun to me you know um you know but it read it reaps havoc you know on my life and and in the path of my life you know um you know I had a mom you know I had a stepdad and you know pretty much just didn't he didn't want to listen to them you know at all when I was growing up I you know pretty much wanted to dive into that lifestyle um you know wanted to be accepted you know into the crowd you know and you know just just fell hard into that temptation and like I said you know I was in trouble with the law at the age of 14 years old you know I can remember my mom having to get off of work you know early and take me my brother to court you know and goes face a judge you know for you know a burglary that we had done and and you know being put on probation you know and then hadn't happened a you know being an outpatient drug program because you know I couldn't stay clean I couldn't stay away from the marijuana you know I had to like I said always be self medicated you know on on marijuana drinking you know messing with shrooms even doing crystal meth you know had it at an early age you know something that you know that you should not be you know you shouldn't be doing you know it's those things are meant to that you know destroy you know our bodies and and just totally the wrong different paths okay so what happened is uh you know pretty much I went to a drug rehab program you know I was I believe I was 16 years old you know I had done a little bit of time in juvie I was in that program I believe from maybe middle 16 something like that till age 18 I had up getting out of that program while I was in the program that's where I actually began my spiritual journey and actually came you know to somewhat of a knowledge of Jesus Christ and and in God and actually you know beginning to experience that Redemption that's only found through him and what happened is I got out of the program I didn't um I didn't continue to follow him I ended up going backwards and you know although I had a job you know I once again went down that dark road and I you know I speak about it you know in the latest song that I just released a drop you know I speak about you know going down you know going down that path you know being put in that program and actually come into a part of redemption in my life but then actually going backwards because I didn't stay I didn't stay rooted in the vine you know I didn't I didn't continue to follow you know Jesus Christ when I got out of the program and eventually went backwards but this time I went even harder you know the Bible talks about when a man cleans his house those spirits will actually go out get more of those demonic spirits come back and then that person will actually be worse off than he was the first time from the age of 18 to 23 I pretty much went backwards full throttle you know once again you know was entangled with you know couldn't put marijuana down you know always had to be drink and always had to be at a party you know got to a point to where the alcohol wasn't enough you know I had to be on alq I had to be drinking and when I was drinking I had to be snorting cocaine you know it just just went backwards but even went backwards full throttle I mean I'm turning into a young adult at this time in my life and you know at this point you know I'm spiraling downhill you know but I did get to a point in my life to what I did you know I did want God back in my life but I could not pull away from that lifestyle um I also talked about losing that you know the loss of my son DeAndre who when I was 19 years old died of SIDS and that right there I want to say was was the time of my life to where it was like boom you know when that happened I was lost and and I felt like you know it was my sin the way that I had been living that I wasn't even worthy you know what I'm saying to have such a beautiful gift like that and and and I shared this in my testimony that I I feel like it was somewhat you know my fault the way that I've been living that you know God took my son away from me and you know it was a time of my life where you know I started to look up and started to question God and and to ask him why you know and and for him to really to help me and stuff but I still it still was not enough for me to actually surrender to him and um you know so there was those landmines that you know God was training you know he was trying to pull me back to him but the lifestyle of of partying and being you know in that atmosphere was you know it had a grip on me and it wasn't enough for me to turn around so what ended up happening is from age of 18 to 23 um I ended up you know I was you know pretty much hooked to that lifestyle of you know the strip clubs you know the going out to the clubs you know going out there you know drinking cocaine ecstasy you know all these different things you know that you know is pretty much designed you know from you know the devil himself you know to pull you away from God Intel and to ultimately destroy you and to destroy God's plan that he has has for you at the age of 23 years old I was I went out for my 23rd birthday for for three days I was drinking I was doing ecstasy and I actually did something that I never thought I was I would ever do you know I never said that I would put a needle into my body I eventually was shooting up crystal meth during this time period for about three days around the third day I actually started seeing visions and started seeing demonic presences and and things of that nature and and I knew that it was happening to me because it had something to do with God you know and in and this lasted for you know for a whole day and I just kept asking myself why am I the only one that can see these I mean I was actually seeing demons you know they all they wanted to do was harm me you know what ended up happening was you know in the course of this time I actually did see Satan and and I knew you know that he knew that I was so close to dying that once I passed over you know that he would have me and you know you know looking back now that's what I can gather from that whole experience but what ended up happening is I ended up at Swedish Medical Center and you know this is right around day 3 you know after me turning 23 years old and I'm sitting in this hospital bed and I have IVs in me and I'm and all these demonic presences are in my room and I can see them I mean I they are actually there and they're so thick and they're in there everywhere you know and just when it couldn't get any worse I look up and the Lord Jesus is right there two of us servants came down with him they came down one was on my left hand side one was on my right hand side I knew Jesus was an authority because when he showed up those demons took off the color of the spirits that I were saying that there were demonic spirits they were actually the color of um I guess cigarette smoke when I seen the Lord he was he was gold okay the same as his servants that came down you know they were gold too I immediately began to cry out to Jesus um at first he did not forgive me okay um what ended up happening is he ended up leaving for a little bit I'm sitting here in this hospital room you know knowing that I was just rebuked you know by the Lord Himself and I'm I'm laying there with these thoughts thinking this is it you know I'm going to be I'm going to be doomed for all eternity I'm going to be eternally separated well what ended up happening is the Lord came back down and this time he was calling my name I was ignoring him because I wanted to get out of the hospital but I knew that I couldn't you know I couldn't ignore him too much longer because you know I just I couldn't do it you know so eventually I gave in he kept calling my name and he kept saying I know I know you can hear me I know you could hear me so I finally looked up at him and with everything I had in my heart I said lord please give me one more shot at life please and I begged him whatever thing that I had in me okay keep in mind I have an IV in my arm you know the doctors are trying to flush my system out and Here I am having an experience with the son of God okay and at first he rebuked me the second time around I cried out with everything that I have and he forgave me but when he forgave me when I cried out to him I said lord give me one more shot at life he paused for a moment and then I heard with frustration in his voice as he was turning away he went like this alright just like that now he was upset with me because the way that I had been living my life okay I was totally living a lie out there I had come to him before when I was younger but I totally back slidden okay after he forgave me his peace came upon me okay I seen some other things that he showed me that were obviously supernatural I won't get into those details right now I will however show I will however share with you that I did see him in a different dimension and he was on a beach he was fellowshipping with the tribe and and the fellowship that they were having was just supernatural I mean he was like next to an ocean I could see him you know in full color he had a white robe on a beautiful blue sash over he just where he was at is where I want it to be okay if I if I was to put my finger on it I would have to say maybe he was probably in the thousand year reign and he was just giving me a glimpse of that the Thousand Year reign that's spoken about in the book of Revelation and also you can find it in the Old Testament it's pretty much where they were the line lead where the lion lays down with the lamb where there's going to actually be peace on earth you know and Jesus Christ is actually going to rule you know this earth for a thousand years and and and I believe that he actually showed me a vision of that but what ended up happening is I ended up the doctors knew that I was seeing things okay they ended up giving me something to where I could go to sleep I woke up they admitted me in a psych ward okay I was in that psych ward for two days but the first thing that I remember is when I woke up no more visions all the visions were gone okay I immediately hit my knees after the nurse walked out of my room to give me my breakfast I hit my knees okay I cried out to God and I said Lord I remember everything that you showed me the night before okay and I give you my life okay I was released from that hospital two days later when I walked out of that hospital I walked out with my who's my wife now okay she at that time she was my girlfriend she was pregnant with my son and she didn't know what happened to me I shared my experience with her at the time she thought it was crazy of course but when I walked out of that hospital everything was brand-new the sky was brand-new the trees were brand-new the grass was greener everything was just brand new it was like God had given me a brand new soul a brand new start had totally wiped my slate clean and my life has never been the same since now I would be lying to say that my life has been totally perfect after that point it has not I had of course had to you know learn some lessons and and fall you know a few good times to where the Lord you know completely you know you know deliverer but immediately he completely delivered me from that life saw that I was living okay I mean I think I went three I think it was three years I went you know with no alcohol no see not even a cigarette okay no alcohol no drugs I mean it was like God had totally put his fear in my heart to where I could fear him I believe that that's what that whole experience was designed around was actually you know come to the knowledge of the fear of the Lord because the word says at the beginning of fear the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom is what the word says okay before that previous time I obviously did not have the fear of the Lord I had a head knowledge of him but I did not fear him okay after that experience I feared him I knew that he was in complete control on whether I go to heaven after I pass from this life or I go to hell okay um you know I can immediately begin to search the Scriptures and learn of who Jesus was because the sad thing was is that when I was in the hospital and when I seen him I had totally forgotten that this is the person who actually died for me this is the one who gave himself for me you know this is the one who died took my place and died for my sins and it totally changed my life okay um my life has totally been transformed like I said I never went back to that lifestyle I did have a few good falls you know where Lord had again picked me back up and say okay you know come back to me let's do this let's let's start over again okay the word says that the righteous man falls seven times but each time he gets back up okay those times I believe were designed to actually bring me even closer to the Lord for him to show me you know how to not touch that stove and get burned over and over and over again see there's a difference between a person in Christ who is struggling and who has to be you know taken through a process of being delivered and then there's the other person who knows of the Lord has actually tasted the good things of God but continues to turn away from God and actually live in that place where they're saying okay I know of the Lord I know what he's done for me but I'm going to continue to live this life of sin those are two different things right there okay each time that I fell after my experience I immediately got up ran to him because I felt ashamed I felt totally convicted I felt totally you know just like I did not want to be at that place because the grass is truly so much greener when you're walking with God when you're under his umbrella under his care under his love I mean the grass is so much greener it feels that means--it's that's where you want to be okay you want to be close to the Lord Jesus says you abide in me and I in you you know what I'm saying away from the heat you know the Bible talks about how we are we are the branches and he is the vine you know if those branches don't abide in the vine that eventually we with her up and die and that's what happened to me you know even the first time when I actually walked away from him when I had my first my first experience with him and in my song drop I talk about that me going backwards not abiding in the vine the more eventually I started to spiritually die and you know so I just wanted to share that experience with you I would encourage anybody out there who is struggling with alcohol drugs whatever it is not matter what kind of sin it is if you are struggling with something please take it to the Lord please take it to his feet and say Lord I cannot do this on my own I need your help I am willing to take the step forward you know what I'm saying in your direction and turn away from that because that's what the Lord that's what he wants us to do is totally turn away from that stuff so that way we can walk with Him we can be renewed in our minds and you know all I can say as my life has never been the same okay after that experience when I was 23 years old and ten years time even in just a year's time the Lord began to heal you know everything around me you know my job situation you know at at the time I wasn't wasn't married eventually got married you know eventually had you know two more kids you know with my wife has totally healed my land he has given me you know a gospel rap ministry you know to where you know I can use my gift you know to point people and the direction of Christ knowing and point them in the direction of God because without him there is no life there is no joy there is no fulfillment in life you know without him you know you're going to be out there you're going to be trying to fulfill every other desire in your heart with with the things that are totally just designed to you know what I'm saying create something that's false create something that that is an eternal you know what I'm saying like drinking like doing drugs you know what I'm saying like trying to attain you know Fame you know there's a lot of things going out there right now everybody wants to be famous you know I'm saying I used to want to be famous before I came to the Lord at the age of 23 I was doing music I was doing it for the world and and God totally turned that around you know what I'm saying um even after you it was always my desire to be famous you know I'm saying be a famous rapper you know and and and declined at the top you know but after I came to God you know when I was 23 years old and you know I surrendered that time and I and I knew that if I was going to do music again I was going to do for him and you know that's that's one of the huge reasons why I don't tell my music you know I give it away for free because I look at things now for me an eternal perspective okay anything that you do for God in this life he's going to reward you in the next life okay my heart is totally in tune with Jesus you know so why do I give my music away for free well I give it away for free because I don't want to hold anybody I don't want to hold anyone away from the gospel I don't want to hold anybody back from the truth okay um I am so thankful and so grateful for what God has done for me you know what I'm saying that it's it is my pleasure you know what I'm saying to give this gift back to him and say you know what Lord you've given me this gift and I want to use it to glorify you I want to use it to bring as many people you know what I'm saying as I possibly can into your kingdom because when it's all said and done when this life is all over and you're actually standing before Jesus Christ it's going to be worth it you know and I don't I don't hate on anyone out there you know what I'm saying who makes you know I'm saying money awful you know I'm saying their ministry or you know you know got you know god bless you you know this is something that God has has put in my heart and actually has you know shown me through you know through other people in fact when my mom was still living you know when she was on the earth she had at she had she had brought it to my attention she said you know why don't you just give it away just give the music away you know and you know at first I was like you know well I don't know I did you know I know that scripture doesn't forbid it you know and and you know but uh you know that that was at that time in my life you know what I'm saying but after she passed on and you know even my wife brought it to my attention you know cuz I used to have my music on iTunes and all that stuff you know and I never really made any money off it anyway you know I that's not what I was all about I was just you know putting it out there and you know what I'm saying but um you know after God had put it in my heart just to give it away you know what I'm saying I that's what I did and then once I did that it was like this weight got lifted off my shoulders man now it's like you know what this musics free it's free for anyone you know what I'm saying anyone you know who wants it you know and and it's just my way of telling God you know what God thank you thank you for what you've done for me you know you saved me so now I'm going to use this I'm gonna use it for your glory I'm not trying to make any money you know what I'm saying off of you know the gift that he's given me I'm not trying to make any money off of you know you know the truth you know I just I want the truth to go out there you know what I'm saying because like I said when it's all said and done when I'm standing before Jesus Christ one day he's gonna show me he's gonna he is going to show me just how effective it was you know what I'm saying and that's just one less thing to hinder me back from actually getting the truth out there so again you know what I'm saying I don't hang out anyone else out there you know I'm saying who actually uses their ministry to make a living you know me personally you know I'm a you know I'm a pipefitter welder you know that's what I do for you know for my nine-to-five I actually you know I go I go out there you know and I work hard you know I work hard into the Lord and you know I'm thankful that he's actually provided that job for me you know but on the spare time you know on my um you know my spare time you know I'm down here you know I'm down here and and I'm listening you know asking God Lord what do you want me to speak to the people this time you know I'm saying what do they need to hear you know because that's what I'm all about I'm all about you know what I'm saying you know speaking you know to a people and letting them hear you know what is most needed you know and you know the older that I get the further that I go into my walk with God you know the more the eternal perspective excuse me is put into my heart and into these eyes you know what I'm saying that this life isn't about me this life isn't about you it is about Jesus Christ it is about what he did for us on that cross that's all that matters you know Paul the Apostle said it while in the New Testament he says you know that he would just that he would know Christ and him crucified and that's it you know what I'm saying so that's what's important this is in our story this is his story you know what I'm saying and and the awesome revelation that the Lord you know has just you know revealed to me is it's not even me doing it it is actually him doing it through me so you know with that in mind you know it just it brings me great joy in my spirit and in my heart that I can actually use this gift you know what I'm saying to shoot out there and actually touch the world for Jesus Christ touch a lost world you know what I'm saying with the light the light of the gospel you know what I'm saying because God wants you you know you may not think so but God wants you okay Jesus Christ wants you okay he wants you so let him in let him in if you're an atheist I don't care who you are what you've done what kind of sin you done there is no sin out there that is too bad to keep you away from Jesus Christ because when he died on that cross his blood was powerful enough to cleanse anybody from any kind of sin okay and that's the reason why he died he died for mankind okay so I'm here to testify of the awesome power of Jesus Christ and what he can do in a man's life if that person will just humble himself and come to him and say Lord you know what I'm saying save me you know I'm here to testify of the truth that Jesus Christ came that he died that he was buried and that he rose again that is the Gospel message right there if you will believe that if you will put your faith in that then the Bible says that you have passed from death into life okay Romans 10:9 says that if you believe in your if you confess the Lord Jesus Christ with your mouth and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead it says you will be saved and then it goes on even further and after that verse it talks about for whoever calls upon the name of the Lord will be saved so I encourage you if you're watching this and you don't know the Lord Jesus you don't know God you want it you want to know him call upon his name today he'll save you he will give you eternal life in fact in the book of Revelation Jesus says behold I stand at the door he stands at your door and knocks and if you will open up if you will hear his voice and you will open up your heart he will come in and dine with you and you with him and this is for eternal life okay this is not you know it's forever you know Jesus talks about you know the free you know the that it's a free gift you know and whoever desires it can come in and take that gift for free it is a free gift so I highly encourage you to call upon the name of Jesus time is fast running now all you have to do is turn on the news and see just how bad this world is really becoming it's not getting any better you know don't believe that lie it's clearly evident all you have to do like I said is turn on the news you know somebody's always getting killed you know this this and that this and that you know what I'm saying the Bible clearly clearly teaches in the New Testament that in the last days evil will wax worse and worse okay I am a living testimony that God can change you he can change a person okay and he wants to change you so if he can do it for me if he can do it for this man right here you know what I'm saying who shooting this video trying to point you to eternal life which is in Jesus Christ he can do it for you too I highly encourage you to call upon the name of Jesus today well today is still called today all right thank you thank you for listening to my testimony if you guys have any questions feel free to hit me up you know what I'm saying um until that time Jesus is Lord god bless you
