Ex-psychic Jenn Nizza is issuing a dire warning after Fox News host Jesse Watters interviewed a psychic this week named Paula Roberts. Nizza said she was "surprised" and concerned over the "demonic" practice being so prevalent on a TV news network. "[People are] being exposed to divination," Nizza told CBN Digital. "Many people are not aware and may think it's entertainment and I was really disappointed to see a news program pushing this out there, and even making light of it — making it seem like it's just entertainment and a joke." She continued, "That's not what it is, and it doesn't matter if you think it's entertainment or not; the outcome is going to be the same." And that outcome, according to Nizza, is one that can breed spiritual danger. Roberts used Tarot cards during her appearance, offering predictions about former President Donald Trump's future prospects; she also addressed current President Joe Biden as well as Watters himself. Listen to Nizza's warnings.MORE INFORMATION:- Want to know more?

Today, Richard Lorenzo Jr. is a Christian pastor — but that wasn't always the case. The ex-warlock was at one time embroiled in the occult, engaging in evil and encouraging others to do the same. All that changed when he accepted Jesus in 2019. "I definitely was possessed," he recently said. "I was hearing voices — I was literally hearing voices." Lorenzo said he began dabbling in selling drugs, but when a massive drug package went missing, he became obsessed with finding out who took it. That's when he turned to a voodoo priest for answers. Soon, he was so enthralled with evil that he forgot about the package. The subsequent journey led him into the bowels of the occult, diving so deep into the abyss he gave up everything to study such practices. In the end, Lorenzo started down a dangerous road. "I know I was possessed. ... I used to believe that the things I was doing were right," he said. "I used to believe ... abortion is right. ... I would convince people about abortion, convince people to get drunk, to cheat on their wives." Lorenzo continued, "I was literally working for the devil." But all of that changed when he found Jesus.  Watch Lorenzo share the incredible journey to faith and the pastorate.MORE INFORMATION:- Want to know more?
