Anointed Hanky Healing!

*This is a testimony that we just received over email.

***********************************


Hi,


I came down with symptoms of things crawling on my skin with bites on Easter Saturday, April 3. This persisted with manifestation of fibre-like substance on my skin. I knew it's demonic because of the strange symptom. I am a Christian and am in the process of being trained to be a prayer minister. However, I made a mistake of going to the internet to search for information which opened the door of fear to enter in. I isolated myself in the apartment because I was not sure if it's contagious.


I called my family doctor and he said he would call me back but he didn't. During this horrific trial, I went to Sid Roth's Supernatural website and watched many of the interviews because I wanted to receive the anointing and the Glory of God that many of his guests carry. It's there that I watched the interview of Pastor Marc Lawson.


I looked up Pastor Lawson on Google and found his Facebook page. I was desperate for healing prayers. I called the phone number not knowing what to expect. I was pleasantly surprised that Stephanie answered the phone and right away offered to pray for me and even offered to send me a prayer cloth. I was filled with hope after the call.


During this time of trial, there were days when I would lose hope. It was on such a day when Stephanie suddenly called me to tell me that she had been praying for me and gave me Proverbs 13:12 "Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but when the desire comes, it is a tree of life." I held onto this Promise of the Lord and was able to go through that day and the days after.


The prayer cloth arrived in two weeks because I live in Toronto Canada. I put it on and it calmed the symptoms on my body. That was May 14. That evening, the Lord revealed the source of the attack. It's towards my mind and my body. I took hold of this revelation and counter-attack with prayers decreeing deliverance and healing for my mind and body.


It's a total of 44 days. I praise and give thanks to our Lord Jesus Christ for victory over the defeated foe. My body is almost 100% symptoms free. Hallelujah!


NorthGate Church is truly the Church of Jesus Christ that gives out God's love and power. My gratitude to you all especially Stephanie for her tender loving care.


Blessings,

Lilian

Healing On The Street!

*Submitted by Stephanie Ryan

Jada, Katie, Jake and I were on outreach tonight at Fort Hill. On the way there we pulled over to pray for some people on the street. An old lady walked up, she had a wrist brace, and was in pain when walking. She had fallen earlier, and thought she busted a rib, and was in intense pain where she could not bend over with out bracing herself with her hand. We prayed for her, and asked her to test it. She was instantly able to bend over, no pain in her ribs, or back.


Yeah Jesus!

Gallbladder Healed!

*Submitted by Madden Sandlin

A friend on mine is going to worship school in Australia and before going she was having some issues with her gallbladder. She scheduled a surgery, then we declared healing over her. She went to her surgery and before she let them cut into her she wanted another CT. The doctor said no, she left and told him that she was healed because the Lord told her so. He thought she was crazy, so she went to a different doctor! This doctor scanned her, and her gallbladder was healed 100%!!!


SO LEGIT! Go Jesus!

Aneurysm Healed OVER THE PHONE!

*Submitted by Madden Sandlin

Yesterday a friend of mine called me and asked me to be in prayer for her cousin who was, at the time, in the hospital with a brain aneurysm. The doctors didn't know exactly what was going on. I declared healing and restoration over this guy. I prayed for a couple minutes, and only a few hours later I got a call saying he was released from the hospital.


After the brain scan the aneurysm had shrunk to basically nothing and I THINK his headache even went away. They sent him home because he no longer had a reason to be there and the doctors had no explanation as to WHAT had happened! His family was calling me and thanking me for my "anointed prayer." It really ministered to the family, LEGIT!


Go Jesus!

Skeptic Healed!

*This was submitted by a gentleman in our church

While in Denver for training my brother in law invited me to a home group that he hosts. He explained to me that they were going through a DVD series by John Bevere. This weeks topic, faith. As John shared I noticed the body language of a couple of the home group members and realized that what John was preaching was challenging for them to accept. He was preaching that God's word is true no matter what our experience may be.


As we discussed the preaching it became obvious that one woman in particular didn't believe that healing was always God's will. I'd like to say I handled the conversation gracefully but in the end it was obvious to all I was getting a little heated in my responses to her statements. My brother in law intervened with the time tested statement of "let's agree to disagree".


As he asked for prayer requests he asked the woman that I had argued with if her ear was still in pain and itching. She responded "yes". I asked how long her ear had been that way and she replied "for several years". I then asked if it was always in pain to which she replied "yes". I then asked the obvious question "would you mind if I prayed for your ear to be healed"? She said yes, I prayed for a minute or so commanding the pain and itching to go and for her ear to be restored.


I asked her if she noticed a difference in the pain and itching and with a puzzled look on her face she said both were gone!


Miracles In The House!

*Submitted by David Kurkjian

While recently visiting my brother in law in Indiana, he invited me to his weekly home group. The home group includes children in their activity of worship and sharing scripture. As we were getting ready to share, my brother in law introduced me to the group with "this is my brother in law from Atlanta, they're seeing a lot of miracles at his church". No pressure right?


They asked me to share some of the miracles I've seen and while I shared I also explained how we do it by proclaiming "the Kingdom of heaven is at hand". I mentioned that our kids are as active in bringing the Kingdom of heaven to people as the adults. To make my point I asked if there was anyone in our meeting that was in pain or needing healing. One of the mothers raised her hand and said she had chronic pain in her tail bone for about 7 years. I asked if it was in pain now to which she said yes. After giving the kids some basic instruction they laid hands on the mother and commanded the pain to go and healing to come. They then asked if she was still in pain and were surprised when she said no. Needless to say the home group was very encouraged by what they had just witnessed. So much so they're trying to find a way to bring a group of their youth to Atlanta for one of our equipping weekends.


Miracles Over The Phone!

*Submitted by Tamra Erisman:

The Lord told me to call my friend when I did I found that she had been battling pain that went beyond a "10" and was in her car on her way to see a pain specialist. I began to share with her about our ministry teams that go out on Tuesdays and as I shared with her, all of a sudden I began to pray and command the pain to go, healing to take place in her body. The Holy Ghost came on both of us and we both had to pull over (we were both driving). She got to the doctors office and had nothing to tell him but that her body was tingling all over. She went to the grocery store after that and the more she walked, the more the tingling began to settle in her legs, she ran through the store and was so excited she left her groceries...haha!!


Later that day when I called to find out how she was doing, she told me her story and then began to share with me about a four month old baby she was watching whose left arm was paralyzed and her hand was closed since she was born. I began to share with her that we have handkerchiefs I could pray over and give to her for the baby, and as I shared, healing just came out and as I began to pray, (she had me on speaker phone) the baby's eyes were fixed on the phone and her little hand began to open up and she began to move her arm.... My friend started screaming and crying and laughing as her little arm began to function. In fact, the baby grabbed her finger and wouldn't let go.


Awesome!!!!


Miracles In Seattle!

*Submitted by Marc Lawson:

At Revelation Church in Seattle we prayed for and challenged people to step out of their comfort zone and "as they go" preach the Kingdom with healing and miracles. The next night we had 8 folks(&many more who came up later) tell stories of how they prayed for people:


One man was in a Safeway food store and prayed for a man who he saw had a hearing aid, deaf in one ear and the Lord restored his hearing!


As people went up to pray for people, depression was on many of the people and after prayer it lifted in every one.


We prayed for a Vietnam War vet who had been in pain walking for 28 years and needed a cane. After we prayed twice, all the pain left and he was walking without the cane!

Another lady and her 6 year old daughter both had Psoriasis, a skin disease. After we broke the ancestral curse and prayed for her blood to be cleansed,the itching and rash began to disappear in both!

Right Place, Right Time!

One of our church members was at their work cubicle just like any other normal day when they heard a loud noise and lots of clanging right outside the door near their cubicle. After the clanging, they heard someone groaning in pain. They went out to see what happened and a co-worker had gotten her shoe stuck to the door on her way in, tripped and fell on the concrete floor face first with her lunch meal all over the place! She was laying on the ground and said she had terrible pain in her hips and shoulders and was obviously freaked out by what just happened.

The gentleman from our church looked her right in the eyes and said "I'm going to pray for you and you're going to get better, is that alright?" She said "Please, please!" So he laid hands on her and commanded ALL of the pain to leave her body. As he was praying, several of his other co-workers were also praying for her and one of his hindu co-workers witnessed the whole thing!


After he prayed, she said she felt a lot better and didn't feel anymore pain!! The security team said it was their procedure to check her out before she could get up. They ended up taking her to a clinic to examine her and all she had was a slight bruise from the fall but no more pain!


Come on Jesus!

Miracle @ The Gym!

A gentleman in our church in his local gym and after finishing his workout, he noticed a man walking towards the lobby with a walker. He went up to him, introduced himself and asked him why he needed to use the walker. The man said that he just recently had hip replacement surgery and showed him the scar. It was huge!

The gentleman from our church told him that Jesus is King and asked him if he could pray for him if he had any pain. He said he had pain in his hip that was pretty constant, so he prayed for him and commanded all of the pain to leave. After prayer the man said he felt heat on his hip and felt all of the pain leave instantly!


Miracle @ the Gym!

Broken Foot Healed!

One of the gentlemen in our church stopped by my public mailbox at his apartment complex and noticed there was another man also walking up to get the mail with a very large, mechanical cast on his right foot/leg. He approached him and asked why he had the cast and he proceeded to tell that he recently broke his foot in half by falling down his stairs and just recently had a major surgery on his foot.

The man from our church told him that Jesus is King and that they have seen God do many miracles before, healing broken legs and all kinds of different injuries and illnesses. He then asked if he could pray for him. The man said yes, so he got down and laid his hands on his foot, commanding all the pain to leave in Jesus' name and for the fire of God to touch his ankle.
He said he immediately felt a burning sensation in his foot and all of the pain left him!

"As you go" and get the mail!

Impaired Vision Restored!

Out in "the hood", a team decided to go and start knocking on doors at the first building that they saw. The first door that they knocked on they were greeted by an elderly woman who was a Christian. After they told her that Jesus is King, she invited them into her house and told them that she had impaired vision in her right eye and could only see a very dark spot out of that one eye.

The team prayed for her once and she said she felt like she could see a little better but there was still some blurriness. They prayed about three more times and finally she said that she could see out of that eye! One of the guys on the team even pulled up a flier that was laying around her house and asked if she could read it.


She could see the letters and the whole piece of paper fine with that one eye!

10 Year Old Gets Word For Healing!

At our recent Spring UMT, a ten year old boy on the team got a word of knowledge that they would see a man in a blue shirt, and he would have a pain in his right shoulder. The next door that the team knocked on was a lady who got healed of knee pain a week prior and she asked them to pray for her friend who was in bed in horrible pain in his right shoulder.

They went to see him and as it turns out he had a blue shirt on and his shoulder had been pulled out of its socket; totally dislocated. He said the pain was at a 9, they prayed once and the pain went to a 6! They prayed once more and he was completely healed! He was moving it all around! He could hardly move when they got there and when the team left he had total mobility and NO PAIN!


Come on Jesus!


Tumors Disappear & Baby Saved!

Last year, one of our teams encountered a young lady that was nearly full term in her pregnancy. At one of her prenatal visits, the doctors found 13 tumors in her womb that greatly threatened the pregnancy. The team prayed over her and took her a handkerchief that our church had laid hands on (Acts 19:11-12).

After losing contact with her for the last 6 months, the team recently found her again in her neighborhood. She breathlessly reported that after they gave her the handkerchief that she soon after delivered the baby and ALL of the tumors had dissolved! The baby was born perfectly healthy and without complications! The team enjoyed getting to meet her little miracle baby for the first time! A happy, healthy little boy of 5 months.


Come on Jesus!


Blind Eye Opened!

An outreach team from the church encountered a woman in her forties that had received nine operations on her right eye and had almost no vision out of it. Her left eye was covered with a cataract. The team prayed and declared the Kingdom of God over her, actually praying 5 times before the healing manifested.

Her right eye was totally healed! She also was able to go out into the sunlight, and not have the light bother her! The team was ecstatic! It was so wonderful to see this precious woman receive her sight!!!


Jesus is King over blindness!

Ovarian Cyst Healed!

* This is a testimony sent in by one of the ladies that attends our church.

A lady at work has had me pray w/her in the past. A long time ago, she had skin cancer & I prayed w/her & it disappeared! No surgery or chemo.


I felt led to ask what would she like to pray about. She said it was interesting that I asked, but that she had a cyst her & her Dr. were concerned about, had fear it was cancer & she was going for tests in a few days. So we prayed for healing. I told her to say, "No more! This is not mine!" She did. I got a call from her today. She went for her tests, & the cyst was GONE! They had been watching it w/check ups. They told her there was no trace of any cyst whatsoever, & went looking through past screenings in an attempt to find it.


They found past records of it, but now its gone!

30 Years of Multiple Sclerosis Destroyed!

One our our equipping teams was recently ministering at a church in Indiana. The year before, a team had gone to an unsaved friend of the church secretary's house, which was literally haunted. After the team prayed over the home, she noticed a dramatic difference in the atmosphere in her home. So much so that she came back to the church the following year when the team returned, gave her life to Jesus and had a powerful encounter with the Lord.

The team found out that she had been suffering for 30 years with Multiple Sclerosis, with hospital stays, inability to walk, etc. and told her of God's will to heal her. She struggled initially, but eventually came to believe that the Lord would heal her and set her free.


This is the testimony we recently received by email from her friend:


******************************************


She is the same lady that we had "The Ghost Busting" session with when you guys were here last summer!! So when I got her to come to the Saturday night service when you were here, your team prayed for her, you ministered to her and prayed for her. And that is when she began to actually BELIEVE that God wanted to heal her and could heal her! So on Sunday you prayed for her again and by that time she was ALL in for healing! Well she had her doctor appointment last week and they did another MRI and all of the shadows that had appeared over the last 2 yrs. (that represents the sclerosis) were gone, or had moved and were no longer a threat!!


Her doctor was AMAZED!! He said that in all of his years of practice he had only seen that happen maybe twice!! The doctor also told her that she wasn't the same person that he saw from the first time she came in!! Now she is on FIRE for Jesus and can not get enough!!


Thank you Jesus!!! And thank you NorthGate Team!!!


Mouth Miracle Leads to Salvation!

One of our outreach teams was sharing with a new believer in her home when a young man came into the house. He had been suffering for three years with severe mouth pain that kept him awake at night, unable to sleep. He showed the team his three rotted teeth that seriously needed root canals and rated the pain at a 10 on a 10 pain scale. At that moment, his mouth was throbbing.

The team prayed a simple prayer, commanding pain and infection to leave and releasing the power of the Gospel on his mouth. They told him "Check the pain". He did and rated it as a 6. The pain had gone down considerably. "Well, if God can take it down 40% in 10 seconds, what could He do if we prayed again?" The team prayed again, commanding new roots and new enamel into his mouth. "Where's the pain?" they asked him. He probed, prodded and pressed on the hurting teeth with his tongue and fingers and his eyes got real big. "It's gone!"


3 years of pain was decimated in a few moments. The young man reeled in amazement, sat down on the couch and began to tell us about this being Deja-Vu. 4 days earlier he had a dream and saw the entire scene that had just transpired! The end of the dream found him in a gun fight at a friends house. Seizing the moment and capitalizing on the fear of God that was right there, the team led him to Jesus after questioning him on his eternal destiny. He glady and fearfully repented of his sins and gave his life to Jesus right then and there.


Come on Jesus!


Miracles at Wal-Mart!

*This is from a gentleman from our church that decided to take the Kingdom with him "as he went"... shopping!

I hadn't seen too many miracles recently but then again the cold introvertedness was starting to come to an end in March. It was 3/30/2010 and Micah Usry was the guest speaker. He was a needed 'shot-in-the-arm' to make me want to go out again, leave my dormancy behind, and do what we were called to do. So afterward I go to Walmart (which seems to be place where Jesus favors and favors due to the many miracles that happen there). I don't see much of anything until my way out where I see a lady in a motorized buggy along with some guy. I strike up a conversation with them and she tells me she doesn't walk well due to the arthritis in her knee which she has had for around 7 years. I tell her of the goodness of Our Lord and she allows me to pray for her. She said she felt a little something inside of her so I asked her if she wanted to 'step out' and walk with me in the parking lot. (After all it is called the 'working of miracles'). She starts walking and after around 8 - 10 steps she tells me all of her pain & stiffness is gone. Praise God!!!

I'd also like to say I got my first cane this past Easter as well. I was fired up after another Northgate service and was going to a friends house for festivities. But I had to stop to go shopping (yes at Walmart but you knew that). So as I'm trained to do now (I'm half-joking, lol), I find some people with physical ailments and tell them I believe the Lord Jesus can heal them (I witness to healthy people as well in case anybody is asking themselves that btw). So I start praying over this elderly gentleman that had knee surgery. He feels a little better and again I start walking with him praying for him. As he is walking he is getting better - good enough to give me his cane as a testimony of his faith that he is healed. Go God!!!

His wife, I assume, then asks me to pray for the arthritis in her hand. She tries to make a closed fist to show me how bad she is but her fingers don't really move that much. So we pray, believing in the power of Jesus, and after a few minutes she can easily move each of her fingers much more than she could a few moments earlier as her stiffness was greatly reduced.

It was odd because their daughter never blinked an eye as she just kept shopping during the whole experience and other people were listening (as I don't try to get loud on purpose to draw attention but I do get excited so I do get loud at times) but never stopped to consider what was going on. Sometimes that is more amazing to me that at times when God moves nobody is paying attention - kinda sad.

Miracles at Wal-Mart! Come on Jesus!

Pure Freedom

* This is a testimony received from one of the young ladies on our outreach team.

Tonight we went to one of our usual neighborhoods to visit some folks. One of our ladies has been wanting us to go see her daughter, because her daughter has really been wanting to speak with us. She apparently was in need of the Holy Ghost, too. So, we all went over there tonight to see her and talk with her. She tells us, "My Mom said you guys knew stuff about my kids that no one told you or anything, but you still know", or something to that effect... she proceeded to tell us that she was curious if we might know things about her too. :)


We explained prophetic ministry a little, and the Lord quickly spoke to each one of us about her life. Everything was on point and she was quite impressed at how real this was! This lady has been addicted to narcotics for some time now, and has been desperately trying to get free. Well, tonight, we came to her with the answer Himself... Jesus! Guys, we gave her the most SIMPLE message of the gospel. The BASICS to us, but this stuff is HUGE to someone who has never heard it this way! Things like the Kingdom of Heaven and righteousness, peace and joy. Things like God's real presence and his LOVE and goodness. Things like FREEDOM. A life in God where He wants to BLESS His kids and not condemn and judge them. A life where you need CHILDLIKE faith, because it's that simple.


We prayed for her, got her delivered of a bunch of junk, and got her full of the Holy Ghost. All she could repeat over and over, with tears falling down her cheeks as we prayed was, "Jesus, Jesus. Thank You, Jesus. Thank You. Jesus... Jesus" How awesome is that?!


She was FREE. She was soooo excited and kept telling us how glad she was that we came over and how she wasn't expecting this. I told her she needed to get baptized and she was immediately fired up to do it. I told her we could do it next week in her tub or something if she wanted. Then I realized... Why wait?! So I asked her if she wanted to just go ahead and do it tonight since she was already on a roll and she was all for it! She filled up the tub, put on some clothes she could get wet in, and she got dunked right there in her tub! You could see her countenance was completely changed by the end of the night.


Freedom is the best feeling. To give it, AND to receive it! Thank You, Jesus for allowing us to be FREE and FREE indeed!! :D


Mouth Pain Healed!

While at a food court at a local mall, a young man from our church was approached by a lady asking for money. The lady had a hospital bracelet on her wrist and he asked her what it was for. She had spent the previous night in the hospital with severe mouth pain, her teeth were rotten and she was in terrible pain. The doctors gave her some pain meds, kept her there overnight and released her the next day. When asked where the pain was at on a scale from 1-10, she quickly replied "8 1/2" saying that her mouth was throbbing at that moment.

Asking if he could pray for her, she agreed. As he touched her, power flowed out of his arm and into her mouth. In about 10 seconds of commanding pain to go he asked her, "Where's the pain?". She said it was a 4. They prayed again, virtue again flowed out and he asked her again, "Where's the pain?" Her eyes got real big and she replied, "It's gone!" She started looking under his sleeves saying, "you must have something under your sleeves... how did you do that?!"

No camera tricks, no mirrors, just Jesus!

The Lame Walk!

An outreach team was in a local community and encountered a man named Kenneth who had an industrial accident and was in excruciating pain where he couldn't walk or do anything but sit. Doctors told him he needed pins and screws and they needed to rebuild his discs. He was also on pain pills as the pain level he said was at a 9;

After prayer the pain went down to 5; then after more prayer and some encouragement,he said all pain was gone and he said, "It feels GOOD". He had been only able to get up few times a day, but he got up out of his chair and started walking across the deck, praising God and quoting scriptures to us. He believes he will go back to the doctor and they will find nothing!


The lame walk!


Stamina Returns!

An outreach team was ministering in a local community and encountered a man named Darrel who was told he had a deteriorating valve in his heart and it was only getting worse. He couldn't walk or go up or downstairs and was in a lot of pain in his joints. After prayer he felt much better and the pain subsided he was getting off pills, able to walk for hour up and down stairs;

He got his stamina back!

Rotator Cuff Healing!

A Mommy in our church recently ministered at another congregation and received a word of knowledge about someone needing healing with a rotator cuff injury. The man had pins in his shoulder from the injury and couldn't raise his his arm above his shoulder. She prayed two times.

By the time she was done praying, he could move it much higher and he had great range of motion. By the end of the service they had to convince him to tell his testimony (They wanted the church to see that God is great and does heal His people!) He was doing full circles with that arm! He said he hadn't been able to do that for 10 YEARS!!! And he was doing it with PINS in his shoulder!


AMAZING!

Tumor Dissolves!

An outreach team from our church was in Lake Charles, Louisiana, ministering in the community when one of the teams came upon a young lady in the park that had a tumor in her thigh. She had not had it removed surgically because it was not cancerous. She said that she could feel it in her leg, so the team prayed and she felt it again.

When she could not feel it she could not believe it was really gone. She kept saying that it was weird and that she could not believe it. So the team prayed again that every bit was truly gone!

Jesus is King!

6 Years of Deafness Destroyed!

*This testimony is from a young lady in our church that recently participated in an outreach to Lake Charles, Louisiana.

We went out in groups to a small community down the street from the church. After splitting up and thoroughly covering the little neighborhood I was waiting for everyone else to finish and decided to try one last house next to the community. I had two members of the church with me and the three of us walked up to this man standing in his driveway. We talked to him for a minute and told him that we had good news for him. I told him that Jesus is King and His kingdom is at hand and asked if we could pray for any needs he had. He then pointed to his hearing aids.

I had heard a soft buzzing noise when we first walked up that I had just ignored, but apparently his left hearing aid had been buzzing and it didn't even bother him. He said that he has had them for 6 years and can't hear clearly without them. I asked him if he would take them out and we would pray for him. The first time I prayed I asked if he could hear me and he said they were better! I said lets pray again and get 100% hearing back. Prayed again and a smile broke across his face. He said that he could hear everything! I asked if we could have his hearing aids and he said no. Not sure what he is going to do with used hearing aids, and doesn't need them anymore!

God rocks!

Power in the Prison!

The door has recently opened for our church to preach in a local Prison. This is a tough place, a disciplinary camp where prisoners who have behavioral problems are sent from other prisons.

While attending the service of another ministry in the prison, we noted that the altar call was a typical, "Every head bowed, every eye closed." The results were underwhelming. NO ONE came to the front. Several weeks later, at our first service in the prison and after preaching a simple message on the Kingdom and calling all prisoners to make Jesus their King and Lord, instead of only their Savior. We invited the men to make Jesus their King with the caveat, "With every head held eye and every eye wide open!"

The men RUSHED the altar, crowding it to give their lives to the Lord. At least 25 men gave their lives completely to Jesus that night. The testimony from one of the men that night was, "I have been in prison for 18 years and in this prison for 8 years and I have NEVER seen a response like the one we saw tonight. Never!"

Afterward, while praying for the sick, a man with a permanent impairment to his vision was completely healed, as God dissolved the cloud in his eye.

Jesus is King!

Miracle at McDonald's!

While eating at McDonald's a lady came in using a walker and sat down at the table right next to me. After a few minutes, I asked her what the problem was and why she needed the walker. She said that she was injured 7 years ago and has been in crippling pain ever since. The Doctor recommended a wheelchair, but she settled on the walker.

After telling her of the Kingdom of God, I asked if I could pray for her. She agreed. We rebuked the spirit of infirmity and commanded the Kingdom to come into her body and for all pain to Go, in Jesus Name! I then asker her to check it out and the pain was almost completely gone. We prayed again and ALL THE PAIN LEFT HER!

She was doing things she couldn't do before and marveling that all her pain was gone for the first time in seven years!

Come on Jesus!

Eyes Healed in Doctor's Office!

While at the doctor's office, after experiencing eye problems, the tech checked the pressure in my eyes. Both pressures were high,17 in the left eye and 19 in the right eye. He left the room and I knew I had only a few minutes to pray again before the Dr. came in. Unless the pressure in both eyes was 15, he was going to operate.

I declared the Kingdom of Heaven over my eyes, fire of God over my eyes, and commanded
my eyes be healed in Jesus' Name. I had a vision of my eyes filled with light.

Just then the Dr. came in and wanted to recheck the pressure. Both eyes were 15! PRAISE
JESUS!!! The Dr. and I were both happy. No surgery!

JESUS IS KING!

Kingdom Invades the Game!

*A group of young people regularly go to local area football games, looking for opportunities to demonstrate the power of the Gospel. This is an email we received from one of the young women on the team.


"Several of us were in a group...we walked around for a bit...talked to a few people and nothing happened. Now, when I say "nothing happened" I mean, we gave some people prophetic words, and they were totally right on. We prayed for them, etc. But nothing really "took off". :)


So, I had this thought, "I'm not leaving until either something happens, or I preach the gospel to all of these kids".


Sooo, I stood up on the stone wall and shouted "Hey guys! I have some awesome news! Jesus is King and the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!"


I then told them we were here to prove it, and asked em if they needed healing, etc. They didn't, but they had friends and family that needed healing . So we prayed for them---which kind if got the attention of some kids... Bottom line, an hour later we were still there---healing kids ankles, knees, and hands. We taught the kids that since Jesus healed them, they had authority over that particular thing now. And we encouraged them to heal their friends and themselves...which they did!!! And their friends got healed! It was awesome!!!"


Demoniac Delivered!

*This is from one of the parents of kids that attended a recent outreach we did with young people ages 7-12 at a local hospital.


"On Sunday, September 27, 2009, I had the distinct privilege of taking three youth from NorthGate Church to Grady Hospital in Atlanta.


We encountered a homeless man who was obviously mentally and physically challenged. The demonic effects were so bad that his speech was indiscernible, he could hardly look up, his arms were drawn and to stand and walk he bounced back and forth from leg to leg in manner that was nothing like walking.


We prayed for him and saw no results.


Next, we encountered an 18 year old who moved to Georgia two weeks prior. He said he moved here because he was looking for God. We preached Jesus and the kingdom of heaven to him and gave him prophetic words that he said he knew were right. He got born again and filled with the Holy Spirit, saying that his body was vibrating and he felt like he was buzzing. He pointed out the guy we had just prayed for and said he had been trying to take care of him out on the streets of Atlanta.


As he shared this, a righteous anger against the devils that held him prisoner and the compassion of the Lord came over me at once. We told him that it wasn't right for the homeless man to stay in that condition and we went back to pray again.


Our boldness increased and faith for his healing was palpable. As we began to pray he began to weep. As he wept he started saying "Thank You" over and over. His speech was discernible and we knew the power of the demonic spirit was broken. We told him to stand and told him the power of God to heal him would allow him to stand straight, walk calmly, hold his head up and relax his arms to not be drawn. Every healing we declared manifested within minutes. The joy that came across his face is a treasure that words cannot describe.


I was looking at a man who moments earlier appeared so mentally and physically damaged that hope would seem lost. He was full of life, holding his head high, standing straight, walking calmly and filled with joy! I hate demons of mental illness. In January of 2009, a guy from our church prophesied that we would see victory over mental illness. This was my first victory over these demons and how awesome it was!


Two days after this event, I walked through my kitchen and thought of the young man who got delivered. I wept as I remembered the joy on his face as he got his life back. I realized in that moment that this is treasure in heaven. I saw with greater clarity that this world offers nothing that compares with the treasures of heaven.


Heaven came to a man from whom most children and many adults would flee. Three kids participated in doing the impossible. They saw the power of God in love.


Now, that is Sunday School worth having your kids attend!"


Tell Them THEN Show Them!

An outreach team was in a local neighborhood and ran across a group of about 8-10 young people and started prophesying over them, releasing the Kingdom and telling them about the power of God.

A few minutes later, they went into the home of a lady we have been ministering to for several weeks and found out that she had injured her wrist, was in severe pain and was wearing a wrist brace. Not content to merely tell them about the power of God, they decided to SHOW the young people what they were just talking about. They called the kids and had them pray for the lady with the injured wrist. It was healed INSTANTLY! No pain, full mobility and she gave us the wrist brace! It's been added to the trophy wall!


Jesus!


Ankle Healed & Amputation CANCELLED!

We recently sent out our Kids Ages 7-12 on an outreach to a local hospital. Two young men, ages 12 and 11 walked up to a young man with a broken ankle, that had literally been split in two in an accident. He rated his pain at a 10 out of 10. The kids prayed for him and all pain left. They then instructed him to put his weight on the once broken ankle and before they left he was jumping up and down on the ankle, without any pain!


They prayed for another guy with a weird Halo type brace for one of his legs. They found out that the man was a firefighter that had fallen and broken his leg. Infection had set into the leg/bone and he was scheduled to have the leg amputated the next day. The young men prayed for him and all pain left the leg. They asked him to put weight on the leg, something he had not done in 8 weeks and he began walking and moving normally on the once dead leg! He promised that he would walk into his doctor's office, show the doctor what God had done and have the surgery canceled!


Awesome God!


Cancer Healed Through Hanky!

* This came in from a young man in our church that had an unusual healing take place on the job.

"I just found one out today, a lady that I work with, her mother had cancer. About 3 months ago I called her after work and told her a tad about some Kingdom principles and she latched on to them. I prayed for her and then about a month later she said she was feeling improvement so I prayed again and sent a hanky (Acts 19:11-12).


Long story short, I just called her today to volunteer to come pray and she said "Pray for what? The cancer is gone and it isn't there anymore". Doctors are perplexed and have told her that it will most likely return since this doesn't happen but she is speaking all kinda good Kingdom stuff like "I know it aint coming back, God knows more than the doctor". Ive never seen her and she lives in TN."


Come on Jesus!


Kidney Stone Vanishes!

* This email came in from one of the men in our church, telling of a healing that happened at the office.

"A 23-year old girl at my office was diagnosed with kidney stones, and had a dye contrast procedure done last Friday, preparatory to surgery or ultrasound ablation. She had passed some smaller stones, but still had a 1 centimeter stone remaining (ouch!OUCH!). I had prayed over her last week and she came in this morning, looking stunned. "You and my mom freaked me out". [Me: wha? Why?] "My kidney stone is gone. My urologist couldn't find it in the scan he looked at yesterday. You and my mom prayed for me." [Jesus is SUCH a great doctor!]"

Thank You Jesus!

Lump Dissolved, Ankle Healed!

One of our outreach teams prayed for a woman that had several lumps in her breast. After coming back they found that she had gone to the doctors, had a mammogram and the lumps had dissolved!

They also found out that she had pain in her ankle for the last 5 years after breaking it in an accident in two places. She couldn't go up or down stairs or put pressure on that foot and her toes wouldn't bend very far and always felt like they needed to pop but wouldn't. We prayed and she tested it out and she then went up and down stairs 3 times with no pain and then she moved her toes in like she couldn't before and when she moved them every time they would pop!



Holy Ghost Hip Replacement!

An outreach team was in a local neighborhood and prayed for a lady with severe hip pain during an equipping event we hosted recently. As they prayed for her, all pain left and she was able to walk normally without pain or lack of mobility. But that's not the best part...


The team came back a couple of weeks later only to find that she had been to the Doctors and demonstrated her lack of pain and mobility to her doctor. The Doctor was so surprised that he ordered a batch of X-Rays to see what had changed. What our outreach team did not know was that she had no cartilage in her hip, which was the cause of her pain. She was actually scheduled to have hip replacement surgery.


The doctor verified that where she once had NO cartilage, she now had PERFECT CARTILAGE! She is now pain free and has cut down on many of her once needed medications.


Come on Jesus!


Neighborhood Transformed!

*This is from one of our outreach teams that has been working a particular neighborhood for the last couple of years.

"The big news is the impact we are having on this place. We were talking with one lady tonight who has lived in the neighborhood for 8 years. She said the neighborhood had really changed. The drug dealers are gone and there are just a few gang types that like to act up at night. I asked her, "When did things change?" She said about a year ago. I told her that we are to blame for the change--we are finishing up our 2nd year in their neighborhood. We have been calling in the Kingdom into every life there and it is being transformed.


The kids in the neighborhood ask their moms if their can go around with us, so we have a lot of the kids in there praying with us and holding hands and hugging us the whole time we are there. We are taking over a life at a time. It seems slow as we go, but I know it will snow ball one day. I am pumped!"

ANKLE HEALED/ GIRL SAVED

* One of our outreach teams recently returned from ministering in Indiana. While there, we took folks from the church out on the streets to "do the stuff". This testimony comes from one of the young men in our group:

"We came upon a group of kids skateboarding in an empty lot and just sat down. One of the kids was trying to jump everyone else’s boards, so all were sitting and watching when he tweaked his ankle. He came up next to me and complained to his friend how much it hurt. I asked him scale 1-10 he reported a 4.


Me: "wanna see something cool?"

Him: "sure"


We commanded the ankle to immediately heal and the pain to go. He reported some reduction, but incomplete, so I instructed him to stand. When he did, all the rest of the pain left. I got a Word of Knowledge about him just beginning to learn to play guitar. He denied it, but then remembered that he had just begun before his accident- broke his shoulder months ago. Had now recovered and had not gone back to the guitar- just forgot about it. (This was a like attack by the enemy to abort this kid’s call by cutting off his gift at the root)


As I preached to him, he agreed that he should and would pick it back up. His girlfriend was sitting next to him. The girl that was with me had been ministering to her during my talk w/ the boy. She received healing for her wounded spirit, and forgave her parents for their wrongs, then, on her knees, accepted Jesus in front of all her friends."


Healing For Breakfast!

* One of our outreach teams recently returned from ministering in Indiana. While there, we took folks from the church out on the streets to "do the stuff". This testimony comes from one of the young ladies in our group:

"On the way home we were eating breakfast at the hotel and I noticed an old man's hospital bracelet. We went to talk to him, and he wasn't too interested in what we were saying but his wife was listening. She began to talk about the tests and hospitals then told us that she had pain in her hip (or knee?). She said it was a level 10, so we all prayed and told her to go test it out. Before praying she said she couldn't walk 10 feet without intense pain. After the prayer she began to walk around, and all the pain left! She took a glory lap around the dining area, and then told us, "MY GOD! I CAN WALK!!!" haha, Jesus is good."

14 Years in a Wheelchair - NOW WALKING!

* One of our outreach teams recently returned from ministering in Indiana. While there, we took folks from the church out on the streets to "do the stuff". This testimony comes from one of the young ladies in our group:


"I was on outreach with the pastor on the first day. I saw a wheelchair ramp in the neighborhood we were in, so I took the team directly to this house. We met a lady and she told us that her legs were lame and she couldn't walk. She said she hadn't walked in 14 years, and that she said she wouldn't be able to ever again. I explained to her how that was a lie from the enemy, and then we all declared Kingdom would come to her body. We prayed once, and she said there was no difference. We prayed again, and she said her legs were hurting and that she was feeling a difference. We prayed a third time, and she walked 18 or so steps across her living room!!"


LAME LEGS HEALED! Thank you Jesus!!!

10 Years of Pain Goes!

*This is from a young lady in our church that returned from an outreach with "trophies" of God's power.

"We were walking from this lady's house who didn't want us to pray for her so we went up this hill area. This little girl walks by and I say "Hey" as always and she goes "What are you guys doing here??" So we told her that we're church people who go around praying for people. I asked her if she knew anyone that was sick and she said "Yeah. Ms. Betty. She has diabetes." So she started walking towards the house without us having to ask. We follow and we reach the door that has a sign taped to it "If I don't answer a knock at my door, DON'T come knocking on the window. I need my rest"

After we knock, a girl opens the door and we see Betty. She's in the kitchen with her cane. We ask her if we can pray for her and she starts telling us all her problems...Diabetes, heart problems, triple bypass surgery, 2 heart attacks, and pain all in her body. It took a little bit, but she finally let us in. She begins to sit down and she's wincing as she's telling us how much in pain she is and how ALL the medicines she's taking are not working.

So I ask her for like the 10th time if we can pray for her. She lets us. We all pray for like 30 seconds to a minute, tops. Once we're done, Nate asks her to stand up and test it out. She stands up, without her cane, and immediately says "HALLELUJAH! PRAISE THE LORD I DON'T HAVE PAIN! I don't have pain!" Noie asks her to start walking around and she does while continuing to say "I don't have any pain! I'm healed! In the name of Jesus!"

Nate asks her if we can have her cane cause she won't need it anymore. She says "Sure, cause I'm healed. Thank you Lord!" She also gives us one she sometimes uses that's laying on the floor next to the couch. So after 15 minutes of her telling us how she's healed and how she's not lying to us and us rejoicing with her, she walks us to the door. She said that she hasn't been able to get to the door in she doesn't know how long. She was so stoked and it was awesome."

YEAH SON. Normal Thursday night.

Deliverance At The Park!

*This is from a guy in our church that had some fun with the Holy Ghost as he took his kids to the park!

“I took the kids to the park here on Neese Road. Anyhow, we were on the playground equipment just getting ready to leave and my son had to use the restroom. So, we went down to the restroom building all in the middle of a recreation league softball game. There was a little girl (maybe 8-9) in a wheel chair. My son spotted her first and said, “Dad, I think we need to go pray for her.”


She had this brace on her right leg and found out that on June 2nd there was an accident and she was run over by the family riding mower. She had lost her little toe and today was the first day since the accident that she was able to walk. She was very shy and didn’t talk too much so her parents did most of it. When she looked up she immediately reminded me of the daughter of our friends that are both incredibly gifted musically. I looked at my son and asked, “Doesn’t she look just like Kelsey?” He agreed. So like in the prophetic training I drew on what I saw and stated that the little girl likes music, to which they all nodded their head. I continued with “you like the piano” (as both of our friends play) and the dad said, “We are just getting ready to start her on piano lessons.”


So, we chatted for a few minutes to find out what had happened. So my son, my daughter and I gathered around her and prayed the Kingdom and creative miracles for tendon, nerve and tissue replacement. We also took authority over a spirit of trauma. She goes back on the 23rd and is ‘supposed’ to get another brace to support her leg for a year, so we called on the miraculous that it would be exponentially quicker and couldn’t be explained.


Afterward, I looked up and saw the dad (probably around my age…maybe a little younger) carrying a HUGE Yoke of Guilt. I asked him if he was the one driving the mower and told him that I saw all of this guilt all over him to which he acknowledged. I prayed for him and broke it off and could see the appearance on his face changing. All because my kids had to go to the bathroom at the park before going home.”


AS YOU GO…..LITERALLY!!!!!

Healing at the Hospital!

A gentleman in our church was going into the hospital to have hernia surgery and while there one of the nurses remarked that she worked for a moving company and had a bad back. After his surgery, he asked her if they could talk for a minute. She came back and he found out that she was a Christian. He told her of the goodness of God and His willingness to heal her. He prayed over her for a few minutes and then asked her if she could do something she couldn't before. She said she couldn't bend over before so he asked her to check it out!

She bent over and touched her feet and was amazed!


She came back in a while later and brought another nurse with her. She asked if he could pray over her as she had pneumonia, bronchitis and was going through a nasty divorce. After a few minutes of talking he prayed over her and then asked her if she had felt anything. She stated that she still felt physically sick but that was okay because she felt a new sense of joy over her. She told him "You don't understand I haven't been able to smile in a very long time". He wanted to pray again, but she was happy just to be happy!

Praise God!

Breast & Brain Cancer Healed!

* This is a testimony from a woman in a family that attended our church, but moved sometime last year to North Carolina. She got a good report!

“I wanted to let the mother and son from church that prayed for this woman I know that the person they prayed for is healed. Anyway, her name is Grace and last year at this time she was dying of cancer. I asked for a team to go pray for her and the mother and son team went. Grace is a beautiful blond, 46 years old, was a flight attendant for Delta and a marathon runner. She is a Christian. She had breast cancer and then it metastasized to her brain. She was given 3 months to live . . . then the mother and son team went to see her at Emory where she lay in her hospital bed. I talked to another lady at the church who told me that the team said the power of God hit that hospital room. I remember that she told me over the phone that they (in faith) said Grace was healed.


Well, I just found out that Grace is working a part time job and is at 95%. Thank you guys!”

Healed of Depression

*This is from one of the young ladies that came with us on outreach. She was actually healed of depression as they prayed for others to be delivered of depression!

“A few weeks ago I was on an outreach in Boulevard. We were walking down the street, began talking with two ladies, and we found out that one of them has been struggling with depression. We prayed for these two ladies, and afterward I felt as if God was telling me to ask THEM to pray for me. I asked these two ladies and the others in our group to pray for me because I too have struggled with depression. I received prayer and I was pouring sweat by the end of it, needless to say God showed up. I went home, went to bed, and woke up the next morning trying to get everything together to go out of town. I thought I had grabbed everything, and then noticed I forgot my anti-depressants when we were already hours away from home. I didn't think much of it while I was gone, and when I got home it dawned on me that I hadn't taken my anti-depressants in over a week and I was still happy. I still haven't taken them, and it’s been almost 2 months. I have been healed of depression!”


Thank You Jesus!
