A little over a year ago, we had a lady on Ishigaki Island who needed prayer as she had been diagnosed as having breast cancer by the doctors.  After we prayed over her, and when she went back to the doctors, she was informed that she was healed and no longer had cancer.

Several weeks ago during our monthly trip to minister on Ishigaki Island, a friend of ours brought her sister, who wasn’t a believer and who was very worried because she had a large cancerous tumor on her left side and she had been experiencing pain in her body.  She had an appointment and was on her way to a hospital on the main island of Okinawa in a few days to be updated on her condition.

After we ministered to her, she experienced a lot of heat in her body and she exclaimed that she felt something happening in her body and thanked us for the prayer. [Note: we believe this is a manifestation of the Lord’s healing power (“dunamis”) which Jesus felt going out from him to heal the woman with the bleeding in Mark 5:30.]

Three days later she came to our home on Okinawa, having come from the hospital, with her sister and with a very big smile exclaimed that there was no cancer and the tumor was gone. Praise the Lord!

On the 18th of June 2015, we received an email from Pastor T. in Oregon:

“My Dear Ones, My Only Blood Grand Daughter, Mandi, has been smitten with a very virulent type of cancer. She makes her own living, and…your prayers are much needed and appreciated.“

So I checked on the internet and got the following.

“Mandi T., R.D., CDE – Caring for kids with cancer. Mandi lives in AZ and has a serious problem. Mandi was diagnosed with triple-negative breast cancer 3 months ago at age 34.  It was caught early so everyone is hopeful, but there is still chemo, surgery, and radiation to go. She is as beautiful on the inside as she is on the outside.

Chemotherapy began with Cytoxan and Adriamycin and now continues with Taxol.  Mandi is doing her best to get through chemo, continuing to try to work full-time when she is exhausted and not feeling well from the many side effects of chemo. Still, she has missed a lot of work. Unfortunately, her numerous medical and chemotherapy appointments have exhausted all of her paid time off and FLEX medical account, so when she is too sick to work or has chemo appointments she doesn’t have any income.  Her insurance deductible is high, and not all her medical expenses go toward the deductible. Mandi’s paychecks are decreasing, her medical and prescription costs are increasing and she still has a long way to go.  

She has eight more weeks of chemotherapy followed by surgery and radiation before emerging from this nightmare….


We ministered to Mandi with the Lord’s authority

So once again, we notified our prayer warriors and prayed over Mandi, commanding the cancer to leave and for her body to be well in the name of Jesus Christ. We then received this email on Saturday the 27th of June.

“Hello Dear Manly and Junko. Today they performed an MRI for Mandi on the cancer tumor, and it is gone. AND A BIG CYST on her ovary is also gone. Oh, how we give praise to your Beautiful People, and you two Precious Friends, (loved ones) in Jesus, for Real Prayer of Faith.”

God is still into the healing work and has demonstrated there is no distance with Him.  Praise the Lord!

We are seeing people healed miraculously from cancer on a consistent basis, and rejoice in His promises.

Your fellow warriors and servants in Christ,
