I want to tell, just what the Lord did
for me. For the last few years I have
had many health issues. I had Diabetes,
headaches, and joint pain. In my 20's I
was found to have a gum disease, but
nice teeth. Yes overweight too, at times
I did loose weight, working really hard,
I would loose some and then just
....well you know how it goes. I just
kept thinking that all this was a result
of my bad choices. Not losing the weight
was the problem. Then about a year ago,
things seemed to get worse. I am only 33
years old. The glands in my neck swelled
up. I had lumps and so much pain. I had
headaches so painful no aspirin would
take care of. Then an infection in my
eye sent me to the doctor. They told me
the headaches were from allergies. I
have never had allergies in my life. I
just didn't feel good.
Then last Sunday night I went to a
church service at this little church
I visit. The pastor told me that a
special speaker was preaching. Well we
started praying. I later found out the
man preacher was Rev. Dunn. I didn't
know him nor did he know me. He preached
about healing and a couple other things.
He made it sound so simple about
healing. As I knelt down to pray I asked
the Lord to heal my disease, diabetes
that is. I had no idea just what the
Lord was about to do. The preacher came
over and put his hand on my head and
began to pray. It wasn't about my
sickness. For many years I haven't been
able to sleep, and it seemed to be
something in the spirit. There always
seemed to be a heaviness and I was
always restless. The preacher began to
pray and tell me things that only I and
the Lord knew about, which was my sleep
problem. I felt peace as he prayed and I
knew that this man had a direct
connection with my Jesus.
As he ministered to others and prayed
the prayer of faith, I was thinking of
my sickness. I told him my name, and
what I needed the Lord to do. He first
prayed for my gums, I told him that my
teeth are loose. He prayed twice and my
teeth were still loose. He paused for
about three seconds. Then he told
me what the Lord was speaking to him
about. He said that all these things
that were wrong with me were a result of
a gland inside my body that was not
working right, and that this gland was
pumping poison throughout my body and it
was killing me. In addition, he said
that this gland was also preventing me
from losing weight. Right away the pain
in my knees was gone and my hip felt
better, I began to walk around the
church worshipping the Lord.
When I went home at first I couldn't go
to sleep, and then my knee started to
hurt, but my hip was still without pain
(I had been having consistent pain for
over a week up until that point). I sat
there and threw my hands in the air and
began to worship Him and Thank Him for
seeing what the doctors missed. I
continued to thank Him for loving me
enough to heal the very root of those
symptoms....I was speaking in tongues
just loving Him. I lied down and the
next thing I knew is that I was asleep.
I don't remember even turning off the
alarm, but I do remember the peace and
rest I got. Sleep problem over. Then I
dug into my medical books and found that
I had almost every symptom to a fetal
gland disease, which doctors usually
can't pick up on. But this Jesus with
His perfect eyes saw inside me, and
spoke a word to a man that prayed the
prayer of faith. Jesus delivered me
from something that was robbing me of my
life. Yes, we still need to make good
choices; our bodies are the temple of
the Lord. He is working with us to help
us overcome. The best choice I have ever
made and will every make is to serve
Jesus.
