Spinal Meningitis Healed!

A house mommy in the church received the news that an old friend had just had a baby, but that the baby was very sick with spinal meningitis. They went in because their daughter was not eating, was non-responsive and was very lethargic, running a fever of 105 degrees. The doctors had actually told the new mother that the baby would not make it and her family was consoling her for the impending loss of her baby. Overcome with an unusual burden to pray, the house mommy was up all night interceding for the newborn. In the morning, she met up with another couple from the church and they went to the hospital to pray for the newborn.

As they prayed, our mommy prophesied that the baby would be home and perfectly healthy within 48 hours. Two days later, the house mommy from our church received a phone call from the very excited new mommy. They were on their way home, being discharged from the hospital with a perfectly healthy newborn. Immediately after receiving prayer, the baby began a rapid recovery and they were home within 48 hours!
