The Bible changes lives. And God is using the Bible teachings of Derek Prince to help people understand Scripture and apply it to their everyday lives. Every day, millions of people around the world experience this and share their testimonies with us.
At Derek Prince Ministries, we ourselves have our own testimonies of the impact of Derek Prince’s Bible teachings. One powerful example comes from one of our outreach directors in Africa. His story reminds us of how God can take a life that is burdened with confusion and open the door to freedom and blessing—through His Word and through Derek Prince’s teaching.
A Life Transformed
Yemi, our outreach director in Ghana, vividly remembers the moment his life changed. Years ago, he came across Derek Prince’s book Blessing or Curse: You Can Choose! It was not just another book to him—it was a revelation.
He discovered, through Derek’s teaching, that the Bible clearly outlines how choices affect our lives. God sets before us a path of blessing and a path of cursing, and it is up to us to choose which way to walk. For Yemi, this truth unlocked understanding he had never seen before.
As he applied what he learned, he began to recognize patterns in his own life and family. The teaching showed him how to break free from cycles of defeat and step into God’s intended blessing. This was more than theory—it was practical truth that reshaped the course of his life.
“As a former Muslim, reading the chapter about forgiveness transformed my life. I wrote down the names of people I had offended and who had offended me. I called them individually and asked them to forgive me.” - Yemi
From Personal Breakthrough to Ministry Impact
Yemi’s testimony did not end with personal transformation. The freedom and blessing he experienced ignited a passion to share this truth with others. Today, as outreach director in Ghana, he ensures that Derek Prince’s materials reach countless men and women who are desperate for answers.
“I use Derek’s book, Blessing or Curse, for evangelism. When I meet people, I give it to them.” - Yemi
Through Bible schools, study groups, and personal discipleship, he introduces others to the same teaching that changed his life. And the ripple effect continues—families are restored, lives are healed, and communities are impacted by the power of God’s Word.
Why This Matters
Stories like Yemi’s are why Derek Prince Ministries exists. We believe that when people encounter God’s truth, they encounter freedom. And when one life is changed, it never stops there—whole families, communities, and even nations can be touched.
We give glory to God for the way He continues to use Derek Prince’s teaching to bring blessing instead of curse, life instead of death, and hope instead of despair.
