CLAUDIA'S TESTIMONY - AGAIN - BECAUSE IT'S THAT GOOD!

CLAUDIA’S TESTIMONY -

My sister Kelly, her son, and I, went to New York in July 2024 to learn about the power of the Holy Spirit. Victoria hosted us in her bed-and-breakfast and we studied the Bible for eight hours a day and then talked about Jesus, sang hymns, and ate together.
While I was there, Victoria and I talked about the diagnosis of bipolar that I received in August 2009… The Lord had been setting me up for this exact conversation.
-A Little backstory-
Four months after this diagnosis in 2009, I left my husband and children and a little over a year later I married again. During this time, I was not healthy; emotionally, physically or spiritually. I was on a slew of medication’s, and had horrible tremors and tardive dyskinesia¹.
The tremors got so bad that in 2023 I could pretty much not write anymore. When I was at work I would have to get people to address envelopes to send things out because I couldn’t get my hands to form the letters.
In 2017 after a manic episode- and allowing my daughter to do things she shouldn’t have, I lost my children for a second time. They were no longer allowed to spend the night at my house.
Now fast forward to 2020 and I marry a man named John. His daddy was a faith healing evangelical preacher! John never really believed that I had bipolar, but he supported me because he loved me.
In August 2022 I stopped drinking and as my body recovered from that I started needing less lithium. I had been taking 1200 mg of lithium since 2009 but in 2023 I was only taking 600 mg of lithium.
On memorial day of 2024, I was at the lake with family and friends, and I appeared to have had, what everyone thought was a small mini stroke, a TIA, so I was sent to the ER. Turns out after many many test lots of brain scans and bloodwork, everything was fine. However, my lithium level was slightly raised, never in 15 years had I had a high lithium level even taking 1200 milligrams. But 600mg and my level was elevated.
Here comes our trip to New York. I called the pharmacy to get refills on the meds and they weren’t going to be available till Tuesday. We were flying out on Monday. I could’ve found a pharmacy in New York and picked up the medicine, but I didn’t have a car and we were in class all day - so I didn’t stress. I did have my lithium - just nothing else.
So we arrive in New York on Monday, July 15 and we start class on Tuesday.
On Wednesday morning Victoria and I were visiting before class that morning.. I started talking and told her about my bipolar diagnosis. She very calmly looked at me and said, “You know, mental illness is a demon.” It was so strange hearing her say that, but what was even crazier is that I absolutely believed her.
Now let me give you one more backstory- In June 2009 when everything was revealed to Chris, my then husband, he forgave me and told me he loved me. I fell asleep in our bed, and I woke up that evening. He looked at me in horror and said,” I don’t know what happened in here, but there were demons coming out of you.”

“I don’t know what happened in here, but there were demons coming out of you.”

Ok y’all, I didn’t grow up learning about demons. That was never talked about. Fast-forward to July 2024 sitting in Victoria‘s dining room on her window seat and she’s telling me mental illness is a demon. I asked her to please pray for me and release me from the demon in Jesus‘s name.
She anointed me with oil, prayed over me, and Jesus set me free! You can’t just stop lithium so for the rest of the week, I took my 600 mg and when I returned home, I dropped down to 300 mg for a week and then I stopped completely!
The Lord gave me the scripture - 2 Timothy 1:7

“ For I do not have a spirit of fear, but of power and a sound mind”

I spoke that scripture over myself 100 times a day and I still speak it over myself today.
The minute I was released from that demon that day, I picked up my notebook and pen and took the most beautiful notes in the Bible class! I WAS WRITING BEAUTIFULLY~!
I will forever be indebted to Victoria for being a disciple of Christ for picking up her cross and following Jesus! Because of her obedience, she was able to heal me in the name of Jesus Christ! No more medicine, no more TD, no more tremors. I will never hurt my children, my husband or my grandchildren; I am trustworthy and I have a sound mine, and y’all - I remember everything - and if there is something I need help remembering →I just ask God and he shows me every time!!

“If there is something I need help remembering →I just ask God and he shows me every time!!”

I was touched by Jesus and if it were not for Victoria Bingham, I would still be under the influence of demonic oppression, taking meds and suffering horrendous side effects feeling no emotions! (I didn’t even cry when my daddy died).
But now I cry, happy tears and sad tears. I have joy and my mind is clear, hallelujah!
Thank you Lord so much for Victoria’s obedience, for her loving me enough to tell me the truth. Victoria, you are sent by God and when your life ends, the Lord will greet you and say “ Well, done, good and faithful servant! Thou has been faithful over a few things. I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy Lord.”
I am forever thankful to you and the love you showed me, a complete stranger. My walk with Christ is forever changed because of you. I love you!
Your sister in Christ,
Claudia Keller
