Hi there this my testimony..of what my wonderful
Lord
did for me just recently. This is just one of the many
miracles I have received from my Father the Saviour.
I have a brother-in law who had all the vices that is
in the world. His wife (who I think is an angel to put
up with him in all his wrong doings). They have been
married for 30 years. She has always been asking me
to
pray that he will overcome all his problems.
One day a few years back I took both of them to
church
and they accepted the lord. But I saw no changes in
him. In fact, he mocked us who believed in God and
actually became quite angry with God for taking my
husband, his brother, at such a young age. By the time
my husband died this brother of his had already
undergone one heart by-pass surgery and his liver was
weak due to years of abuse by alcohol. Nevertheless,
undeterred he went on drinking and lived as if he had
a death wish, still unable to make peace with God and
appeared sometimes to even challenge God to end his
life.
I have always been praying for him and his wife.
Recently my brother-in law passed away. He had been
going through a lot of pain in the last times of his
life. It was said weeks before he died he was in such
pain he would sprinkle boiling water on his shoulders
in desperation, not knowing how to rid himself of the
pain.
Finally, just two weeks ago, he was admitted to
hospital with all kinds of problems. The doctors said
that he will not make it. He was admitted on Sunday
and he died on Monday. But. you know what? He
didn't
stay dead for long. When the doctors saw that his
heart beat stopped. they did their best and brought
him back to life. I was away at that time. Only after
I heard that he came back to life my daughter said
that maybe GOD brought him back to save him. She
also
mentioned that she had a strong calling in her heart
to pray for him and asked us also to do so.
An important fact I must mention is that when he
was brought back from the dead, he came back
screaming in terror. People have commented that
perhaps he had been to hell. I don't know, but I do
know he looked like a tortured man on the hospital
bed. When his wife asked him about it while he was
still conscious, he was surprised he did such a thing as
he could not remember anything.
My niece and I rushed up to the hospital to pray
for him. Later my daughter told me that she also
contacted my son while I was away and asked that he
pray too. It
so happened that my son was going into a bible study
session with his friends and so all of them prayed for
my brother-in-law. My daughter, for some strange
reason, on the morning of the day my brother-in-law
died, happened to be free from work and left alone
with not a single person at the office. Once again she
was drawn to pray. She also sent a spirit of fire to
protect my niece and me from the terrestrial spirits
lurking there for my husband's family are mainly
non-christians and I have been persecuted by them
before.
At the hospital, my brother-in-law was on a
breathing
support machine. But he was conscious and crying. unable to
talk. His eyes were half -open and the
doctors told me that he could hear. So I spoke to him. going
very near his ears. I told him that if he could
hear me, give me a sign by blinking. He did. So I said
the sinner's prayer for him and prayed for him. While
I was praying he was sobbing and tears rolled down
his
cheeks. I knew then he had repented and gave his life
whole-heartedly to God. As I continued praying he
continued crying and slowly as the hours passed his
sobbing grew less and less and by dusk he appeared
calm and his breathing regular. Later that night he
died and I saw the peace in his face. It was not just
me, my niece and many people who attended the
funeral
even his wife commented that he looked twenty years
younger. A complete change from the man that first
came to the hospital.
I thank GOD that he used me to bring a soul to
the
Lord and answered my prayer. Never under-estimate
the
power of prayer.
I hope and pray that God will use me abundantly
in my
days in this world.
