Frightened people contact former transgender drug dealer asking for prayer during COVID-19 crisis

(Worthy News) – Nichol Collins had been a drug dealer and was living a transgender lifestyle for 20 years when she had a transformative encounter with Jesus Christ, became a Christian, and began praying for people both inside and outside the LGBTQ community, CBN News reports. Having been in ministry in recent years, Ms Collins began getting an increased number of calls from people needing spiritual help during the COVID-19 crisis.

“When the pandemic broke out a lot of people started contacting me because they knew I was already a spiritual midwife so to speak,” Ms Collins told CBN News. 

Many of those who contacted her were fearful and seeking God as businesses, schools and churches were shut down, Ms Collins said. She began to pray with people to receive the Holy Spirit. “People were terrified and they wanted to be endued with power and they started saying, ‘Hey I heard that you pray with people to receive the Holy Spirit,'” Ms Collins explained.  

“I always clarify to people that I’m not giving it out. God is pouring out his spirit in the last days on all flesh.  I’m just a conduit to pray with people, kind of coach them through it. Explain it, make them more comfortable. That this is a gift to anyone who asks according to Luke chapter 11:13,” Ms Collins said. “What the devil means for evil God always turns things around for the good,” she added.

As she prayed for people who were contacting her on social media while in a “frenzy,” Ms Collins said many were filled with Holy Spirit. At the time of her interview with CBN, Ms Collins had counted 125 who had received the Holy Spirit. “Many of these people have not even been in the homosexual lifestyle,” she said. “It’s been about maybe ten out of these 125 people. It’s been about ten that’s coming out of perversion. They were cross-dressing. Some men were living as women. Some women were living as men.”
