Many people still ridicule me and slander me as if I'm still that old person...so don't think everything is going to be Skittles and Rainbows when you become a Christian. I'm so used to being hated... it's not new to me. But the love y'all have shown me is brand new and it brings me to tears. I Thank God for every fan! Stay with us! Rip Records is about to go ABSOLUTELY CRAZY for Jesus...If you're an addict... healing is in Jesus! Mental health issues... Jesus... broken heart... JESUS!!! CALL OUT TO HIM!!! HE WILL SAVE YOU!!! I love you all!💪🙏💪🙏💪🙏🎧🎧🎧

My name is Juan Hernandez, just got out, after serving 23, years 12-21-2023, I'm homeless with mental health issues no one but my mom has seen me, the last time I saw my family was 1998, your songs is as if you are talking about me I surender my heart to Jesus Christ,pray for me please.

Man I use to listen to this song in my addiction and now I'm sober from a 7 year run and it's so empowering listening to this cuz I prayed there would come a point where I could be sober Thank GOD for opening my eyes and giving me the strength I so desperately needed from him. One Love ❤ 11 months clean from heroin. Don't ever give lose hope and if I can over come then anybody can over come this battle with drug addiction.

Never look back. Once you repent and turn away from that old life, God scatters your offenses into the wind. Keep elevating in Jesus name. Amen.

Your songs definitely remind me of why I chose to follow God, 588 days sober today

You wrote my life. This was me all of it for 51 years of my life. I reconfirmed my life to Christ and was baptized 8 months ago. I have been sober for 2 1/2 years. I knew GOD but did everything to push him away. I mean everything. Through it all God had my back. I should die in jail and I have used up my 9 lives and more. By the Grace of God I have no police record and I am health and happy. I have had such a amazing life change. I asked God to take my life every night for almost 35 yrs. Today I can't wait to live life. If God can change my life and forgive me he can for you!! All the Glory to GOD

Never and addict, not a violent person, and consider myself a Christian. BUT THIS MAN. THIS MAN IS DOING GOD'S WORK. You've inspired me to become a true soldier of Christ sir. I've been living of this world for far too long and its time for me to stand up. Thank you.

I literally ran Into this guy at the gas station and he told me to give him a listen and I'm definitely Glad I did!

You just did what alot of people are so scared to do TELL THE TRUTH

I've been listening to you for 2 days in constant prayer. Thought I was a Christian my whole life. I received the Holy Spirit tonight. I belong to God at 57 because of you. Praying for you brother.

My name is Chris and my wife is Emilee we are both from bham Alabama. And we are both 3 years clean from heroin Jesus is here for everyone and all us.. without him we could have done it.. But we did and no it's not a easy thing to do but it can be done.. so everyone that is down with depression addiction and what ever you are still a person not a nobody so stay strong and enjoy your time with the good LORD.. !!!

I can't help but to be brought to tears every time I watch this. Thank you Father

My friend committed suicide two days ago... this on repeat has helped me from staying in a dark place. Without JESUS i was hopeless. LORD GOD please bless his family and all who hear this song. Amen and amen

I recently have found this song and it so inspirational to me it basically describes my life and how I lived for so many years. I am now 40 months clean and the only reason I am here is by the grace of God. I am a Christian who lost his way but am now back on track willing to keep pushing forward and fighting the good fight. Thank you Nicky your a gifted artist and I thank you so much for your music. Jesus truly does save

I lost my wife 10 weeks ago. I’m not struggling with addiction, but let me tell you that Satan will back you up against a wall. Nicky Gracious’ lyrics are helping me stand up. God is the ONLY answer. I thank you Brother for helping me!

I not into rap. But when the message is so real that you can't deny it. Then I'm in!!!🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏💐💐💐📖

Jesus saved me from addiction, still struggle with cigarettes but I’m thankful for the grace of God

At age 17 I was a pothead, drinker, selfish, jerk, disrespectful , without hope, suicidal....I went into the bathroom and stared myself in the eyes and asked myself "what are you doing with your life?!....you say you believe in God but nothing you do shows that's the case....you said you'd devote your life to god when you were younger but you havnt!" At that moment Jesus came to me…he placed his hand on my shoulder and told me who he was and why the father sent him, he forgave me and said I needed to forgive myself, I broke down in tears of happiness, peace and freedom . I gave away everything I owned that day and devoted my life to Jesus. I’ve been following him ever since! I am now 34 , married with 4 kids and 1 on the way! Still praising and following him, I’ve had my ups and downs but I’ll never forget that day he came to me and saved me. I love you Jesus and am so grateful you went out of your way for me a selfish sinner.

It's my number one favorite song now!! Keep going for Jesus Christ! 🎶💖🙏💯💪🔥😊👍

Your testimony is powerful bro. Keep telling your story. This gives me hope. We got 355 days clean today. ALL glory to God. Keep spittin that 🔥 for the kingdom homie 🙌

Praise the Lord! I had cold chills covering my body all through this video! Our God is truly a mighty God!! Great job 👏🏻 👏🏻

Son's in jail again, been in fed, no change. Talking to his mom, asked her to look you up. In real time we did, been on replay. Shaking the tears, the Holy Spirit reached him, the seed is growing my friend. So many I've met, just Love is needed, lend a hand, walk together with Jesus and rock this world 🙌🙏🏝️🤙

I used to ask God to just take me out because of my addictions. Now I'm standing tall because God delivered me from the pit in my life. Praise the Lord! Great 🎵 song

One of the best CHH songs I have ever heard bro.... Straight 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Life hasn’t been the same ever since thank you Jesus Christ

This song is soo powerful!! Imma lead you into battle you gon fight against the devil!! Woooohooo lets get it Lord Jesus!! Hallelujah praise Jesus

Hey everyone 3 years sober now with each year my mind gets more clear on how the Devil use drugs as a trap keep listening to Nicky his music has help me so much with my addiction God his using his music to help addicts so keep listening And it gets a little easier with each day

Nicky...I been with you for a while now. Once again man, don't lose that energy that the Lord put into you which helped get you noticed.

My dude has no idea how real this song is to me. When I say that I appreciate you for this one. I for real thank you bro.

LOVING THE MUSIC GOSH DARN!!!!!!!! LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO THANK YOU GOD THANK YOU FOR YOUR SOLDIERS WHO WALK IN RIGHTEOUNESS AND PREACH YOUR NAME FROM THE HIGHEST MOUNTAINS. WE'LL BE READY WHEN YOU COME FOR US, GUIDE US, PROTECT US, GIVE US THE COURAGE TO STAND AGAINST THE ENEMY, WE WILL TAKE UP OUR CROSS IN YOUR NAME HOLY FATHER, THE ONE AND ONLY, THE ONE AND ALWAYS

I felt every second of this and cried right along with you. My heart.......

thank you. i'm 40 yrs old, just found God and Jesus myself 2 years ago. Deep in the middle of a spiritual and psychological crisis. things like this help. i appreciate your words. Godspeed Brother. we need more like you.

I'm like bawling my eyes out! Thank God I found this this artist. I died last year of an OD and when I came back my life changes. I see angles fighting demons, hear the devils lies, feel and hear the holy spirit, and thought that every gang in America was after me. They tell me something big is happening in our country we've gotta answer for changing God's laws. I got diagnosed schizoaffective at 36 and when I've taking the medication I almost died, like God didn't want me on it. I've been looking for someone out there who can relate desperate to find answers. Nikki you are singing about my life. I wonder if your messages would match mine and I'm telling you they've been bizarre but God is good. I've been talking to myself for over a year now. God took everyone in my life away from me down to telling me to send my kids to live with their dad. We are being prepared for his war you got it right there because he tells me I'm a soldier. I've been a writer my whole life but don't have the vocals. I think it's a sign that I found you, that I'm not alone. Thank you for your music!!!

May God bless everyone that is struggling to make it. Amen❤

Amazing bro I used to live a life like this I have been clean 6 years now I love it I feel like your telling my story

Just celebrated 90 days of straight honest sobriety yesterday for the first time since I was 14 I'm a month from 40. Wow life is changing for the better everyday. No regrets of what I put myself through all these years. Really opening up to people who were a part of my struggles. So grateful to have found a new found happiness for life !! Never looking back. Stay strong peoples!

As a recovered drug addict myself, this record hit my soul and made me break down in tears. Thank you, God, for rapping through Nicky. I'm forever grateful for your grace and removing me from that world 🙏🙏🙏

Been sober and clean for 14 years now JESUS IS THE BEST THAT'S EVER happened to me ALL PRAISE AND GLORY TO HIM. this song right is on point I felt your heart

Wow! Thank you for your testimony such a powerful message. I was diagnosed with schizophrenia, agoraphobia, manic depressive, and severe panic attacks. I heard voices and even saw an evil spirit. When I gave my life to Christ I felt an evil spirit lift off of me. I have been praying and fasting a lot. On two different fast at the end of them I felt other spirits that were clinging to me leave. Keep on spreading the message again so powerful. We are in a war but we can overcome with the BLOOD OF JESUS CHRIST.

I remember when I stumbled across this video on Facebook before the music video. I was at the lowest point of my life due to my alcoholism. I remembered the words either you gon' change or stay the same, make a decision I know it's a cold game. I knew the only outcome was prison or death. I went and got help because your song and testimony motivated me. Now that's POWERFUL man. I remember being sick and shaking in detox but those words kept echoing in my head. Thank you Nicki🙏

My eight-year-old side it just randomly found this guy on KZfaq while we were driving in the car. He played this song and I'm in the car bawling ❤❤ This song needs to be blown up

Nicky Gracious I love your music! I wish my son was alive to hear your music and your message. He would love it. Your story is like my son's story. My son, Tristan, passed away August 2016 from an accidental overdose. I miss him so bad but I'm glad he suffers no more. Keep making your beautiful music! 🙏🙏🙏

People are getting clean and looking for music they can relate to in a new reborn way. Thank you for your work for the kingdom and King! Bless you

I feel yo pain dog I was stuck in the mud in the cold rain feeling like I was going insane but God picked me up out the slump picking me up out the dump I’m here to fight back I’m not going to keep running like forest gump Gods team is going to win I know we all fall in sin but with Jesus we all can win and start over again

Please God always give me the strength to stay on the path and help me be the father that I never had and I pray that I always could be a good man that my family needs and this I Pray

I went to rehab in Cali in January and soon as I got there I was introduced to this , man WHERE HAS THIS BEEN ALL MY LIFE!!!!! Nicky you helped save my life and I wanna THANK YOU BROTHER FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART!!! I love this , always on repeat and it's April... YESS SIR

Wow!! I believe you are going to touch many life's with this song, including mine.

Bruh I am you and the devil is trying to break me but God made me strong and I ain't going to fall I stand up and see what God has for me I love your music keep going you helping more than you can imagine brother 👊🤠😇😇😇😇😇

You sang the old me word for word brother this was me this was my brother and so many of my dawgs thank God we grew up and God changed us

20 years on opiates Christ took me away from it with no withdrawal it's unbelievable with the Lord can do when you lay everything at the foot of the cross God bless you brother for putting this music out

He’s a preacher in rapper form. Preaching to the hood and gangsta’s that think praying is worth nothing. Keep preaching I’m with you very step of the way. Peace Lil CA$$T

Oh wow brother. I just found this and I just listened to it 4 times Praise God. I completely relate to every word besides the addiction to opiates although is was alcohol and almost every other drug and I never robbed a dope boy but I was with those who would. Other than those minor differences I hits dead in the center of my heart. I put hands on my woman, being drunk and paranoid but PRAISE GOD when I got outta prison she gave me another chance. We're just recently within the last 4 weeks getting our relationship with God by His Son Jesus Christ. I'm standing up brother and going back ain't an option. Thank you for your obedience to God brother, Jesus is definitely working through you. God bless you and your family.

I went into this after watching "This I Pray." Only the second song I've heard of yours. When you said that God wrote the words on your heart and basically covered you up in his armor to send you to war against the Devil. Man...the raw emotion you were conveying there had me in tears. You have a gift and I'm glad you're sharing it with the world. Me? I've found my song I'm blasting when I'm getting ready to go into battle. WHAT. A. SONG!

I'm a warrior I smoke God's pain killer only grass I'm 68 had strokes since 19 it works thank you my Father in Heaven❤🙏

What this man had to go through to make this song is beyond me. Pray for our brother. Be blessed in Jesus name! Great message and meaningful music. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Love to see this, from India

Ever since I heard your songs, something changed in me. Something primal. I am sober three weeks now. I have a place to stay. I have clothes and food. Thank you

But god blessed us with our own child through all this after i was told it was not possible two years ago because of my previous addiction ! I know what it means to have your back against the wall with no wheres to go i guess i just want to thank you and tell you how much i have appreciated all your music since i have found you yesterday! God bless!

That was amazing. You couldn't have said it any better. If you have been there, there is no way you couldn't feel that.

Bro!! This is the hardest rap I've ever heard! I'm only 23 days clean from suboxone. Each day is getting better. I got down on my knees on January the 3rd and asked God to help me through the withdrawals and I will forever do his will on earth. Been going to 12 step program weekly, and church every Sunday. Im so ready to fallow God, and be a better man! I just downloaded your album, im gonna be banging this jam EVERYDAY!! Please drop another album sometime!

The part of this incredible song that gets me fired up is the last verse & When the phrase" You gonna change or stay the same" is sung with such incredible force that it can & will knock you over...MY LORD JESUS IS DESPERATELY CALLING OUT HIS OWN WHOM ARE CAPTIVE WITH LOVE THAT IS SO DEEP IT CANNOT BE EXPLAINED & I CAN FEEL IT DEEPLY IN MY SPIRIT! THANK YOU Brother Nicky!

Sir. It was not my type of music, but when I heard " This I Pray," I felt the words were from the heart. Raw and real. You have a talent for spreading the message through this kind of music. You got my support, best wishes.

I stand up and keep fighting to stay sober no matter how hard it is cause I know GOD is by my side

Wow!! Sounds like my fiance testimony. We were both saved by the Grace of God. He's the only way!! Praise Jesus

JESUS CHRIST love you bro. This song is just so on point (Holy War)

Many are called but few are chosen💪💪God bless you bro!! Yesterday, today and tomorrow!! Soulja of Christ🙏🙏🙏

It is crazy what God will allow you to experience and show you if you are living in the darkness. People would only understand if they been through it.

God's this song called to me today when I found it on fb lord I've struggled being a single father of two who always made his living out the street buts trying to change thru the grace of God I've managed to fund 5 rental trailers that now help bring in passive legal income for me and my two children I try every day to be a better man and sometimes I wondered if the Lord heard my prayers God knows I never deserved it but the last few months I'm starting to see he hears us all and I wanna keep finding more thank u for the music that people like me can listen to and relate even tho we're trying to do better we all fall this year reminds me we all struggle and none of us are beyond redemption thank you

This is amazing, I normally don't listen to christian rap, usually more slower music but this hits me my friend. I used drugs and alcohol and Jesus changed me ❤️ God bless you son of the most high ❤️ 🙏 🙌

I just want you to know, hearing this song made it easier for me to forgive my father. It granted me with the opportunity to see things from his perspective. By the end of this song I realized ANYONE can be saved and that I need to understand who the real enemy is. Unfortunately, due to my dads behavior I can’t be around him, but I do still love him and I pray for him everyday. I hope one day he will come to Jesus just like you did. I’m so happy God is using you as a vessel.

I commented on this video a few weeks back. I didn’t elaborate on anything when I commented though. I am a recovering drug addict. My number one drug of choice was methamphetamine. I used that drug on and off for 10 years and it was about the ninth year my eyes became opened up to the devils realm. When I heard the words of this song, it brought me back to those dark dark days where the devil almost took me down. Man, I can’t even tell you how much I appreciate the words to the song because when I was going through everything, I thought I was the only one that had been going through this. I’m really not in to this type of music but man I love this song and I love the rest of your music man. God bless you.

Thank you Lord for saving this man…his music/testimony blesses me …🙏❤ in Jesus name I pray

Hairs on my neck stand up when I listen to this song. I’ll never give in n never give up!! I’ve lost everything but gained so much more with Fathers callin!❤️🙏🏻💪🔥😉😎

Wow!! Whoever came up with idea for this video was completely on point. Every word fell in sync with the way the video played out. Awesome job all the way around.

This song….I have lived it!! Praise GOD and Christ for setting me free!!! 🙌🏻

😊IF I COULD PUT GOD FIRST I COULD REMOVE ALL DARKNESS FROM MY HEART, MIND AND SOUL I WOULD FINALLY HAVE PEACE.AMEN 😢😊❤

The Lord bless you and guide you ,, praise God for this brother ❤️

Nick this the most Gangster song I've Ever heard!! I look forward to what's next!!!! 💯

I am hoping your music will reach my son who is fighting a life of pain, suffering. Good on you for sharing your faith in Jesus to reach those that feel they are so lost in the world to drugs, crime and all else. Amen.

Getting me threw this trial & tribulation 🙏😌✝️💖 Jesus I know your with me!

STRAIGHT FIIIREE!!!!!!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

I see in your face so many of the same emotions I felt when I used to replay all the garbage Jesus delivered me from. Now I fight too... I just need a little more boldness to GO, like He said to. Pray for me, Bro, and I'll pray for you too.

I'm sure you get this a lot but please don't ever stop doing what you're doing for all of us who know that we are never worthless every battle has a victory when we walk with God thank you so much for your music!!!!! ❤😊❤

I cry every time I watch this video. The message hits me hard. I listen to a lot of Christian rap and this song is definitely in my top 3. I can't stop watching it. God Bless!!

Nick the song alone was awsome.. and now it's unbelievably awsome..!!!

I'm crying. No lie. God save me.
