Miracle

The following post is a little long but definitely worth reading. My Mom has been miraculously healed. I copied the e-mail I sent to all of our Prayer Warrior friends asking them to pray for my Mom to be healed. The follow up e-mails are how God answered our prayers. It has been truly AMAZING.

To all our Prayer Warrior friends and family,

I invite you to join us in prayer this weekend. My Mom & Dad are heading to a church on Friday night that has a healing ministry. It is called Bethel Church in Redding (click for link to website). I know to some of you this might sound odd, (others think it's about time!). We do believe that God heals and for some reason He has given this church and ministry the gift of healing in His name. They give all glory to God and have had 1000's of healings. Check out their Testimony page...it's amazing. Personally I know of a family that is seeing results of a healing just this past weekend and I'm so encouraged. After talking with this person I immediately looked into Bethel's ministry for my own Mom and I've encouraged them to go. We are praying that God chooses to use this ministry to bring about healing for Mom. As you all know, this year has been really hard for her. She is in great physical pain and still feels nauseous at all times. She has had every test imaginable and many, often times, painful procedures and still has no relief. So, we are praying and believing that God will give her body mercy and heal her this weekend. She has been miraculously healed in the past and we are believing that God wants to heal her again.

Hi Friends,

Mom & Dad had a wonderful, worshipful experience at Bethel Church. They prayed with the speaker after the Friday night service and really had some spiritual and emotional healing. Dad was made aware that he can't carry the burden of not being able to heal Mom himself. He needed to learn to "Let Go & Let God". The speaker also prayed over Mom and felt that she had a crippling spirit and prayed against that. She asked if anyone else in her family had anything similar and in fact her father (deceased) was wheelchair bound for most of his life and her sister has laid on a couch for the past 10+ years. Neither had specific reasons for their crippling. The speaker identified that as a generational curse and she prayed that it would be broken.

Today they went to the Healing Room and were prayed with individually. One of the prayers was regarding Mom's leg that is 1/2 inch shorter than the other. It causes all sorts of back problems and she needs to wear a lift. They prayed healing in her leg and claimed that it lengthened. She is excited to measure her leg and see the healing. They also prayed for her nerve damage, digestive system, and pain issues. Nothing dramatic happened in those areas but because they are all internal we are expecting time to reveal more healing...expect praise updates soon!

The healing that did happen has been amazing. It's all encompassing- spiritual, emotional, and physical. The past few days they were able to spend a lot of time in prayer together and be reminded of how big our God is. They're able to hope again that she will not live in constant pain. Please pray for her continued healing.

Praise the LORD!!! I hope you're picturing me joyfully shouting this praise. Mom just returned from her chiropractor who's known that her legs are 1/2 inch different and that she needs to wear a lift. Today, when he measured her legs (4 times) they were EVEN. He agreed that she has been miraculously healed. In addition, she hasn't had to take pain medication for the past few days and she is not nauseous. We are thanking the Lord for his amazing healing.
Please tell everyone of God's great works and boldly declare His GLORY
