Where I'm coming from

How did this all start?

What was my journey like?

Where am I coming from?

I can remember as a child feeling a profound emptiness in my heart, but I knew not why. I seemingly had all a child of 5 would want. Loving parents, good friends, toys a sister, good grades in school etc. But something was missing. I now know what or Who I was missing. It was Jesus.

Growing up I had a few friends and family members who were sick and near to death. I cried out to God, I prayed, fasted, made deals with God. Still they died. At the time I was upset with God and turned away from Him. I blamed him for not answering or hearing my prayer. Little did I know.But a seed was planted even from a very young age that God heals.

I can remember instances in the last 10 years when I prayed for people and while there was power and his presence, thee still was no healing. There was a neighbour of mine who had cancer, who later died. A sweet woman.

I just didn't know then yet how to walk in healing or how to manifest the healing power of God.

I can remember a mentor I had who moved in healing. He had a toothache once and refused to see a dentist believing God would heal Him. I thought He was a fanatic an extremist. Little did I know that I would follow him , going and doing likewise.

I can remember as a teenager, hearing the gospel for the first time and how the word of God in 1 Cor. 12 leaped off the page into my heart.

I can remember more than years ago, full of zeal visiting the hospitals with a church ministry. We were sharing our faith with the sick there and praying for them.
There was a girl there who was very ill, had sores and could not walk. I gave her my copy of Christ the Healer. I went back the next week and she was discharged and walking. A Miracle . Yes. But to God be the glory. I had nothing to do with it. Healing was a mystery then.

More to come in Part II

December 12, 2009 - An Extraordinary Day

I am seeing an increase of miracles, signs and wonders and the influence of the Holy Spirit in My Life.

I am now dreaming more and recording and interpreting my dreams. I am getting more visions, night visions, and Audtions (hearing messages).

I got two auditions/ visions while sleeping this morning. This so excites me. I really look forward to sleeping now, just so I can hear what God has to say to me next.

I was approached by 2 persons who needed money and I was able to bless them, even though I was in need myself.

I went to a mens breakfast and was worried the whole morning how I would be able to afford it. I felt the Holy Spirit telling me to just relax and HE would take care of it. Just Trust Him. So I did, a bit lol. Anyways as it turned out it was not a fixed contribution but a freewill one, so I gave what I could and I was so free.

I prayed for a guy with arthritis and pain in his knee and he was healed.

I just happened to be in the right place at the right time and averted a disaster with a mad man that could have resulted in his death or serious harm and injury to him self or others.

WOW!!

What an awesome God filled Day. More Lord!!! Thank You Jesus.

16-Sept-2009 Hernia, wrist and back pain healed (mine)

Hernia Healed
2 weeks ago I went on a beach trip. (one of the benefits of living on an island, LOL). We played lots of games, among which were tug of war and a sprint relay. However at the end of these activities I was in pain. I felt a tightness in my stomach which I knew meant that I strained my abdominal muscles. It was probably the onset of a hernia. I simply prayed to the Lord and laid hands on my stomach, in a few minutes the pain was all gone.

Back pain Healed

I have had long standing (no pun intended) back pain whenever I stand for long periods of time. I decided that enough was enough and decided to approach God for healing of this condition.
I prayed and laid my hands on my back, commanding the back pain to go and the back to be healed. I felt lead to stretch and bend my back and while doing that I felt a vertebrae snap into place and the pain was gone. I still am standing and contending as there was some phantom pain and the pain moved (sign of a sprit) etc, but I know I am healed and I am standing in faith. I know its done.

Wrist pain Healed
As a result of the tug of war game above, I had pain in my wrist and decreased mobility/ flexibility in my wrist joint. I cried out to God and had a vision and heard God say that He healed me. The pain reduced from that point and gradually diminished until it was completely gone.

Yay God!!!

31-Aug-2009 The Deaf Hear, The Lame walk and the Gospel is preached to the poor

I went to a crusade yesterday in a rural community. If you guys remember my last crusade testimony it was at the same community.

I prayed for two people there.

One was an elderly gentleman with glaucoma. I did not see any noticeable improvement but he was very touched by the prayer and he thanked me for praying for him.

The second person I prayed for was another elderly gentleman. He had a walker and looking at him I just knew that he had faith to be hgealed. I waited for an opportune time and then I approached him. He first started to tell me about his arthritic knee but then I noticed him turning his head to the side to hear me from the good ear. I asked him about that and He said that he was hardly hearing from that ear. I decided to attck it and prayed for him several times laying my hand on the ear. Eventually the mountain moved and He could hear clearly from that ear just as good as the other one. Yay God!! That was a first for me, but God does this all the time.

I also prayed for his knee and he saw a reduction in his pain level , however the knee was still stiff. While I was laying on hands on his knee He was exercising, flexing and testing it out, even without being told so. HE was so bold in his faith, confirming the insight I received earlier.

God is soo good. This so bolstered my faith. Now I know that nothing is impossible for Him and I will be tireless in praying for and healing the sick. Blessed be his name.

21-Aug-2009 Authority over the flu

I just started a new job and was working long and hard to impress my new boss. On top of that I was staying up late in the night working on some other business interests. The result of all this ill treatment was that by the end of the week not only was I exhausted but I was coming down with the flu. My nostrils were draining, I was sneezing up a storm and feeling weak and sickly. Coworkers noticed and said that I was coming down with the flu. I refused to accept that. Family members made similar pronouncements.

I realized that only God could rectify my situation. After repenting for overworking myself and taxing my body and not taking my required rest.(Ps. 127:2 It is vain for you to rise up early, To retire late, To eat the bread of painful labors; For He gives to His beloved even in his sleep.) I then commanded the sickness to leave etc.

When that didn't seem to work I tried something else. I remember Roger talking about his healing journey and how he would accept Jesus as his healer like he took him as his Saviour. I decided to do the same . To accept Christ as my healer and rest and abide in his finished work and his healing love for me. Before the end of the day all flu like symptoms were gone. I was strengthened and revived and I stopped sneezing. I was healed. It didn't happen instantly, but it was there at one point and then all of a sudden it wasn't. God did the work. To him be the glory amen.

21-Aug-2009 An extraordinary day

I was at a Christian event for a ministry I am a part of. It was an evening of Worship, Ministry of the word and Prayer Ministry.

However God was showing up from before I got there. I took a taxi to the venue and upon alighting from the taxi, The taxi driver said I know your walking with God and that these are the last days. I said nothing to Him about God, just regular conversation. I only decided to get out early because of traffic so that he could get more work.

Then upon entering the venue, I started feeling the presence of God.

I was talking to the team members and God gave me a picture of one of them in glasses. SO I asked her why doesn't she wear her glasses. She asked how I knew that because she never wears them in public. This time I just gave a generic excuse/ reason and never attributed it to God or the Holy Spirit.

I was helping to set up the equipment and one of the sound technicians came in. The Lord highlighted his right leg to me, but I didn't get anything specific beyond that. I wanted to share it then and there, but I felt like God was saying it wasn't the right time yet. So after the meeting I approached him and asked him if he had a problem with his right leg. He flat out said no. However his friend who was there said that he has problems with both his knees. Then the guy suddenly remembered and then began telling his story of how it would shift out of place and hurt and prevent him from partticipating in sports. He asked how I knew and why I was asking him and I told him that God showed it to me.It wasn't hurting him then, so he couldn't test it out . I prayed for him and released healing in both his knees. He was very thankful, but I had to leave at that moment. I know that God did something so I am greatly encouraged.
