Hello friends. When one is involved in prayer and intercession ministry, the urgent needs of the believers come first to us. Oftentimes there are medical emergencies that are life threatening. I had to dig deep into the theology of healing and miracles since these prayer requests come in continuously. I heard so many testimonies too. I noticed similar stories and battle scenes by believers who won victory. Just like any wars, there’s casualties too and only in heaven, will we truly know what happened. Until then I suggest you do not judge any sibling-in-Christ who are suffering in their body, mind and health. Instead, love and support them with your prayers, encouragement, acts of service with kindness and compassion.
I see the body of Christ, the Church as a military base or military school. Therefore, it’s wise to study the testimony of believers who won victory in their lives over deadly diseases and cancers. My takeaway is that every believer has to own their battle and fight hard for their victory. Here are some good examples.
“According to the promises found in God’s Word, there are no impossible cases. If ever there was an impossible case it surely was me. I was told that I would always be an invalid, and that there was no cure and no hope for me. Yet, by enforcing God’s Word, plus changing my diet, I have defied every diagnosis the doctors have given me. And that includes lupus, and two very serious back injuries, and a serious brain tumor at base of my brain. Yet, here I am at age 76 in perfect health.
God has made provisions for every child of His that will obey His rules, and follow His guidelines. If you will dare to get in the Bible and study His Word you will find that His health and prosperity promises are conditional, so that means obedience. Obedience always merits the blessings of God. As Samuel said “To obey is better than sacrifice” (1 Sam. 15:22).
Then faith must be added with obeying God’s Word. As Hebrews says, “But without faith it is impossible to please him, for he that cometh to God must believe that He is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek Him” (Heb.11:6). Can you see how that seeking God diligently, and believing Him go hand in hand?”

“At age 22 Brian Wills was diagnosed with one of the deadliest and fastest-growing cancers, known as Burkitt’s lymphoma, and given ten hours to live. This is part of his incredible story.
The tumor in my abdomen that had been the size of a golf ball four days ago now measured almost ten inches in diameter. The cancer had spread to my lungs, liver, and most of the organs in my body. “Today is Tuesday and your son won’t be alive by Friday,” the doctor explained to my parents. “I’ll admit him to the hospital and keep him as comfortable as possible.”
I felt like I’d been shoved over a precipice and was hurtling toward destruction at breakneck speed. I didn’t know how to stop my fall. My life had spiraled out of control.
It was my mother’s words that slowed my descent and set me on solid ground again. “No, God’s Word says that by Jesus’ stripes, Brian is healed. Let God be true, and every man a liar.”
“We’re going to make our stand right now and believe God, no matter what the doctors say,” she announced.
I knew that without a miracle, I would never make it out of the hospital alive. I had a choice to make. I could believe God for my healing and go after it like a starved animal in search of a meal, or I could get depressed and believe what the doctors were telling me. I could think and meditate on God’s Word, which brings life, or I could dwell on my diagnosis and prognosis, which would lead to death.
If ever there was time to get serious about obeying God, this was it. My family helped out by papering the walls of my hospital room with Bible verses that offered healing promises. We each made a firm decision to immerse ourselves in the Bible and make sure all our words agreed with God. We refused to speak negative words of doubt, unbelief, or fear.”

Here is Dodie Osteen’s testimony. She is the mother of the famous pastor Joel Osteen.
She just passed away this year at age 91.
I’ve heard her testimony before but her short book has many more details. There are excellent battle strategy plan for anyone contending for their healing.

Here’s a very good devotional about the power of our words. It compliments the testimonies that I shared above from believers who won over their deathly diseases and cancers.

Here’s a good spiritual principle to follow about anything that you are praying or contending for:
“In Acts 19, the Lord chose to bring healing to the sick through the handkerchief of the apostle Paul. The Greek word for handkerchief is “soudarion.” It literally means “a sweat cloth.” We often think of miracles as works that God does entirely apart from man. But there’s a whole realm of miracles which God does through the works, the labor, and the sweat of man – miracles through sweat cloths. For the Holy Spirit works not only through inspiration but also through perspiration. Some of God’s greatest miracles come through the hard work of man. The walls of Jericho came down by a miracle – but that miracle required God’s people to march. Messiah healed a man of blindness but required him to go down to the Pool of Siloam to wash. If God can use a handkerchief to bring healing, then God certainly can use all your hard work, labors, toil, sweat, and tears for His kingdom to work miracles. So don’t grow tired of doing good, for God will work miracles in your good works for Him, just as he did through the sweat cloth of the apostle Paul.”

Although Halloween has passed by (yay! 😅) please read this testimony and warnings by ex-satanist who is now a believer. If you or your family members accidentally participated in any unholy activity last month then he said that you’ll experience sinister things now in November. Please read this article, repent and ask for forgiveness, and receive prayers too.
Here is another story of warning for Christians. It’s so important to know about these things so that our people don’t have to suffer so needlessly and become victims. The woman who is a witch worked at a Bible college to lure her victims. It reminds me of human traffickers who prey upon their new victims to capture and sell for evil. This young lady was warned by the Holy Spirit and her parents but she didn’t take the warnings seriously. Reading her story reminded me about a necklace that my sister bought me about 15 years ago as a gift from a medieval fair that she went to. It was a beautiful dragon necklace with a pretty crystal. I’m sure it cost a good amount of money. But I was warned so strongly by the Holy Spirit to throw it away. I threw it away immediately after she left my house. I felt bad about throwing it away since it was a gift from my sister but I am so glad that I heeded the warning from the Holy Spirit and threw it away immediately. Perhaps the necklace was intertwined with spells by the seller? All I heard in my spirit from the Holy Spirit was that I was to throw it away.

Here’s an article about Satan – his past, present and his future. It’s scary information but without knowing the biblical truth about Satan then you’ll be victims of his deception and lies. (Remember the witch who lured this young woman worked at a Bible college!)
