Carlton Foster understands that when you are in God’s hands, there is beauty in the ashes of your life. As a young man, he did not think that God heard his cry for help until God took him from bondage to a place of prominence. Carlton Foster believes you are not a diamond in the making, but a diamond to be discovered. He serves as senior pastor at the Church of God of Prophecy in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. He also believes that anyone can have a God encounter experience that will catapult them on a path to walking in their purpose and destiny. His breakthrough and deliverance propelled him to write Destroying The Yokes. He has the assurance that the yokes the enemy places on you are only for a season, and that God used the same things the enemy used to put a yoke on him to bring about great victory.
