Beltway Testimonies

Testimony Unfolded: April 2007

A man gets prayed for at SHAPE retreat and is healed:

A few weeks back I attended the Men’s SHAPE retreat to learn more about my spiritual gifts.  We broke into our small groups at the end of Friday and went back to a room to pray. We didn’t want to “bother” the group with it and really felt like it was too little a thing.  The group prayed over me and during the prayer, my knee lit up with heat.  It felt like it was on fire on the inside.  I heard God say,”I have healed you; this is where Satan will attack.”  I was still skeptical and processing what had happened, so I didn’t say anything to anyone at that time.  I came home Saturday and told my wife.  She thought it was awesome also, but I said that I needed to “test it out” to prove to myself that it was true.  I went running the next day and there is no still no pain.  Praise God!.  We prayed for different needs of different individuals in the group.  When it was my turn, I mentioned some things I was struggling with and that I thought God was pushing me in new directions.  I had been experiencing some knee pain when I ran, but it didn’t.
