Testimony Unfolded: April 12, 2008
From Brett Stewart, one of our high-school students:
Today was so freaking incredible.
First of all there was an awesome sermon about hearing God’s voice. Then we had time to receive words of prophecy or encouragement for another person whom we had never met. Mine was accurate with him, and his was accurate with me. Then….THEN THE AMAZING GLORY of GOD happened.
We got into groups around 7-10 people. We then were to take time in hearing God’s voice for a physical need someone had that needed to be healed. I received the word “ankle” and had a 45-50 yr old man tell me his problem. He had had a vein running from his hip all the way to his angle crumpled up. Basically they didn’t want it to work, but didn’t take it out. It had left him with several markings and an itching pain in his ankle. I got down and put my hands on his ankle and our group began to pray. I prayed and prayed and prayed and was filled with this burning fire. It heated my whole body, i would’ve loved to know what my body temperature was at the time, because it felt way over 100 degrees. After praying he just kind of stood there and looked at me, then he began to cry. He began pouring out tears and was just saying that it was gone. That it was amazing and everything was gone. He had to sit down and catch his breath then he just began to hug me for a very long time.
After that first miracle God had worked, a lady in our group told us of a ringing she had in her ears and how she felt she couldn’t hear as well as she used to be able to. Well once again we were around her and I put my hands on her ears and began to pray. Hands and arms shaking this time while praying intensely, after finishing she said that the ringing had stopped, that it was decreasing as we were praying and that she could hear our whispers of prayer, when we could barely hear ourself say them. So, yet another miracle from God came.
Then we had another guy in our group say that he had stomach pains. Once again we circled around him and I put my hands on him and began to pray. Everything in my body this time shaking furiously I prayed. When finishing, I looked up and he said, “It is gone!” I said, “Really? Like Seriously?” I couldn’t believe that God would work like that and heal like that instantly three times. He said as we began to pray, it started to go away and Boom! when done, it was gone!
Praise and glory be to God. You might think that these things sound supernatural, but this is becoming the natural for me. I think as Christians what others view as unbelievable and supernatural, it should be considered the normal for us, because God would use us in such amazing ways to shine His glory! Praise and glory be to God!
