My Testimony

My name is Adriana, and I’m so honored and humbled to share Set Free with you.

This ministry was revealed to me over 10 years ago, during the darkest seasons of my life, a season marked by horrendous trauma, anguish, and profound brokenness. But JESUS stepped in and gave me hope. What I share comes from a tender heart, not to highlight trauma and suffering, but to magnify the mighty and powerful name of Jesus. What He has done for me, He can do for you. 

In 2016, I cried out to God saying, “God, where are You?!! I’m so sorry. Im so so SO sorry. I’m not doing what You called me to.” I felt lifeless, hopeless, and alone. What made this season so confusing was that not long before, my life looked very different. I was on FIRE for Jesus -praying, interceding and witnessing the Holy Spirit move powerfully in my life and others. I was experiencing God’s supernatural presence in tangible ways.

And then something shifted.

I didn’t understand it at the time, but I was experiencing the effects of significant trauma. I felt hollow and disconnected—numb in my body and fragmented in my mind. I remember thinking, “I feel like I’m dying inside…I’m just going to die inside” because it felt safer not to feel at all. Slowly, I withdrew. I stopped attending church, stopped worshiping, stopped reading Scripture, and stopped praying. I believed the lie that God was disappointed in me and had turned His face from me. Even praying felt exhausting—emotionally and spiritually.

Yet it was in that very place—when I cried out—that God met me. 

I felt His presence, His peace, His comfort, and heard His voice. He gave me three words: Freedom. Transparency. Expression. And He gave me the name: Set Free.

Years passed. Life continued. I pursued education, growth, and healing. As I began to find my voice and step more fully into who God created me to be, old wounds surfaced and long-buried pain demanded to be addressed. I wrestled deeply with surrender, identity, and obedience. I wanted restoration without loss, healing without grief, and redemption without letting go.

But God, in His mercy, showed me that clinging to what was harming me was costing me my life. What I was holding onto with all my strength was cutting me deeply. And still—I struggled to release it.

The closer I drew to God, the more He revealed His truth. He exposed lies I had believed for years. He reminded me of who I was—and whose I was. He returned me to the moment in 2016 when He planted Set Free in my heart. What I once thought was simply a ministry idea, I now see was God’s prophetic promise: that He would redeem what was broken and use it for His glory.

I realized something profound:

While I was fighting to preserve what I thought I needed, God was rescuing me.

HE WANTED HIS DAUGHTER BACK!

But it came at a cost. In Christ's freedom, I had to exercise my God-given voice and free will to choose to say no and break the cycle I was in.

With humility and transparency, I had to lay it all down at the feet of Jesus, saying, "Here I am. Here it is. Have your way." With full surrender, allowing the Holy Spirit to have His way.

And expression. Letting Him have His way in me, that there is just this overflow of over love and JESUS in my life!

TODAY, I have life again. TODAY, because of the mighty blood of Jesus that I am saved, delivered, and set free from my old ways and made alive in Him!
