Miraculous healing after Hurricane Ike
"Last
week as I arrived home it was on my mind to return a generator
that one of my customers had loaned to me. I loaded the generator
onto my truck and my wife told me that the man had called
that
day wondering if power had been restored to our home after
the hurricane---it had already been restored two weeks prior to
his
call. I returned his generator that evening and apologized
for the delay in returning it. I had been working 16 hours a day
restoring power to people all over Houston after the hurricane.
As we unloaded
the generator, he told me that he had had knee surgery and
he
was in constant pain when he applied his weight on it. He told
me that
the doctor had operated microscopically on his meniscus,
some ligaments and tendons. I offered him some cash for the use
of his
generator.
But he would not take it and told me to give it to my church.
So
I began to witness to him. He told me he grew up in church, but
had admitted he had backslidden. I began to tell him that it was
not about going to church, but a condition of his heart and told
him about sin, God’s righteousness, judgment, and the Cross.
I told him my story of God supernaturally calling me to Him on
my own jobsite. He was amazed and asked a lot of questions. After
that I told him that I would like to pray over his knee and he
said at this point he would not turn down anything to get relief.
I commanded it once to be healed in Jesus’ name and I told
him to try it out and walk. He was amazed how much better it was.
So I commanded it a second time, and all the pain was gone. He
was so excited. I ministered to him some of God’s word, gave
him one of my Bibles and told him that he needed to get alone with
God tonight and repent and follow Him---to read His Word and obey
what it says. As we parted I knew things were different than at
first."
Skin
of elderly gentleman instantly restored & much more
"I would
like to share a testimony of the Lord's kindness. I was at an elderly
customer's house doing electrical repairs. After I finished
I
visited with him for he was a previous customer and a believer.
The gentleman
is 84 years old and has many medical problems such as congestive
heart failure, pernicious anemia, ruptured hernia 3 times,
arthritis in his hands, his legs from the knees down were swollen,
and
the skin was very red and hard like fish scales. There were too
many problems to list. I had prayed for him around 3 years
ago not totally knowing what I have since learned from The Elijah
Challenge training.
I took
authority and rebuked the spirits of infirmities and commanded
healing in his legs, hands, heart, blood, and other
parts of his body. I told him to keep his eyes open and to watch
as I commanded. Immediately he told me that he felt power going
through his legs; his skin changed before our eyes. On his left
leg the skin changed from hard and rough to white, smooth, and
soft. The right leg was getting better but more slowly. His hands
were able to function perfectly with no pain. I called the next
day to check on him and he told me that he hadn't slept that
well in years. He did wake up in the night and it was as if he
could
feel my hands on his legs and could feel the Holy Spirit was
still working on him. I will be returning to minister to him again
very
soon."
Luke
10:9 "Heal the sick who
are there and tell them,
'The kingdom of God is near you.’"
