ARTHRITUS IS NO LONGER A VISITOR

I was in my early twenties a newly wed and diagnosed with crippling rheumatoid arthritis. My hands had begun to look like I had very large knuckles and swollen fingers lots of pain. Could not hold anything just kept dropping things, even the phone. The doctor told me to get a hospital bed and a wheel chair because I was going to be a cripple and on lots of medication the rest of my life. I had just gotten married, graduated from college and was teaching school when I got the news. I was told to stop teaching because I could not take a chance and pass out from the medication. After 2 years and taking myself off the medication for six months, we had our first healthy baby boy. I had been told I would not be able to have children. Another 2 years our second healthy baby boy was born. I had to go back on the medication, 50 to 60 tablets of Motrin a day, sleeping pills and valium, with Maalox by the bottle and every 2 weeks drive 150 miles to get a shot of cortisone in the hip. My youngest was about 4 months old when I was listening to the 700 Club, while I was attempting to do house work, when Pat Robertson said," There is some one out there that has been diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis and in the name of Jesus you are healed. “I hollered that's me and I claimed the healing for me. It has been 40 years and I am still free of the horrible pain and medication. God is good!!!

THE LOVE OF MY FATHER FOR A SINNER

I was given diagnoses of terminal cancer. I went to the elders of my church and asked for prayer of healing or a miracle in the cancer. They had told me 15 pints of blood, 5 hrs in surgery and if I survived, I would most likely wish I had gone on due to the pain and physical condition I would be in, radiation and so forth. I felt the power of God come thru me and out thru the bend of my knees. I had the surgery it was 1 hr and 45 minutes from the beginning until I woke up in my room, from what was supposed to have been a five-hour surgery, no blood transfusions, no cancer. The doctor shook his head and told me how could this be, I pointed up and said that is how. He just shook his head no, the nurse with him told him she believed. I promised God that any time a door opened to tell someone what He had done I would do so. God can and will deliver us from all things if we just reach out to Him and TRUST, He will do it. Praise the Lord and and I ask all things in His name Jesus. I thank you for the opportunity to share my miracle.
