Once trapped in a world of New Age lifestyle and thinking, she was saved by Jesus from the occult. But before that, she was an occult teacher and believes she was demonically oppressed.<\/p>\n<p>Nizza remembers, \u201cI wasn\u2019t seeking a different life. I wasn\u2019t looking for a new philosophy, and I didn\u2019t want to try on Christianity or anything like that. I loved what I was doing. The oppression was so severe; it was heavy upon me. And one day, I just cried out to Jesus. The Jesus I never cared about, the real Jesus. I called on His name without any faith all those years. I was just at the end of myself. I cried out to Him.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/b2dYaxjwiMI\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Well-versed on topics like past life regression and the law of attraction, 36-year-old Nizza cried out to Jesus for the first time and became a child of God. Suddenly, the darkness she had lived in for many years was obliterated. She quit her job and was determined to follow Jesus wherever her life might lead. Today, she exposes the dark underbelly of the New Age, the occult, and paranormal deceptions through her books and a podcast called\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/edifi.app\/podcasts\/ex-psychic-saved-exposing-divination-new-age-and-the-occult-27836\/\">\u201cThe Ex-Psychic Saved\u201d podcast.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Nizza said, \u201cI love to educate people because what you see isn\u2019t always what you get. We are in a spiritual battle, and God is real, and the devil is real, and the devil is sneaky and tricky. And now he\u2019s so blatant in our culture. The devil is very prevalent; these new-age practices, the psychic mediums, they\u2019re everywhere. They\u2019re on all the social media platforms. You can get a reading at the click of a button. It\u2019s poison, and it\u2019s hurting the children.
