DELIVERED NOT DIVORCED

Sometimes God doesn’t end a covenant...
He ends a counterfeit.
People won’t always understand that distinction.
And honestly—neither did I, at first.
When I prayed for restoration, I didn’t know that God was quietly restoring me.
When I prayed for peace, I didn’t know He was dismantling the chaos I had mistaken for love.
When I prayed for unity, I didn’t know He was cutting away what was never joined to me by Him.
I woke up one morning and realized:
Divorce wasn’t the end... Deliverance was.
And the deeper I walked into it, the clearer I saw this truth:
God will end whatever is threatening the destiny He placed inside you.
Even if you’re still gripping it with both hands.
For months, I wrestled with the tension of faith and reality...
I tried to reason.
I tried to repair.
I tried to explain myself to a person who could not hear me.
Every conversation became a wall.
Every attempt became a wound.
Until the day God whispered: “Be still.”
Not passive stillness.
Not silence rooted in defeat.
But stillness rooted in knowing.
Stillness that says:
“I don’t have to fight this battle... God already has.”
Stillness that makes room for God to do what only He can do.
Stillness that exposes everything that can’t survive the light.
And when God shines a light, nothing can hide...
Not lies.
Not manipulation.
Not deception.
Not hidden behaviors.
Not spirits that destroy homes.
And suddenly, the truth stands bare...
Not to shame.
Not to destroy.
But to liberate.
To liberate a man.
To protect children.
To reclaim a destiny.
To restore identity.
To deliver a soul that didn’t even know it was trapped.
People ask me all the time:
“How did you do it? How did you stay so calm through everything?”
I didn’t... God did.
I just obeyed.
I chose not to fight with my mouth.
I fought with my obedience.
I fought by staying clean.
I fought by surrendering my emotions to God every single day.
I fought by walking in purity.
I fought by refusing to pick up weapons the enemy was handing me.
Deliverance doesn’t make you perfect.
But it does make you aligned.
Because once God delivers you,
you become dangerous to the kingdom of darkness...
Your clarity becomes sharp.
Your discernment becomes surgical.
Your peace becomes immovable.
Your authority becomes unmistakable.
And suddenly, you realize:
This wasn’t just a divorce...
This was an Exodus.
A Red Sea moment.
A Jordan-crossing moment.
A “God parted something to protect me and my children” moment.
I didn’t walk out of a marriage... I walked out of Egypt.
And the wilderness that followed wasn’t punishment...
it was preparation.
Preparation to be a father who guards the gate.
Preparation to be a man who stands tall in the Promised Land.
Preparation to write the books that will set others free.
Preparation to carry a mantle I didn’t ask for but was chosen for.
Delivered, Not Divorced is not just a title...
It’s a declaration.
It’s the banner I carry now.
It’s the testimony thousands will read.
It’s the door God will use to bring healing to men and women...
who don’t even know they’re living in spiritual captivity.
This is not the end of anything...
This is the beginning of everything.
Welcome to the Promised Land.
Enriching lives one story at a time.
