Brain Tumor Blessed with the Ability to Die

Wednesday, July 22nd, 2009

One week ago last Friday we sent a healing team to pray for a young man in his twenties who had been sent home to die with an inoperable brain tumor. They told his wife there was nothing more the could do and scheduled 24 hour hospice in their home until he died. Corey and his wife Tanya are believers and when we offered to come and pray she said YES! He would have said yes but had not communicated for a while and was basically in a coma unable to feed himself or even drink water. They were having to feed him water through a sponge.

When we arrived in their home we were ushered into the bedroom and we began to pray. The tumor in his head, though not malignant, was aggressively growing and killing him. We blessed the tumor with the ability to die and then commanded it to do so. As we were praying Corey lifted his arm and began to praise God. He had not
been able to do that for weeks. He also lifted his leg and began to communicate through sign language, which he had never done before. We left with great faith knowing healing was his.

Over the next few days we began to get updates of his recovery. First he lifted his other leg. Then the Drs’ took him off of 24 hour hospice because they could not justify it any longer. Then the message came that he was beginning to speak in a whisper. Then he was able to eat a burrito and feed himself. They have now taken him off of hospice all
together and are scheduling physical therapy to rebuild weakened muscles from being immobile for so long. YEAH GOD!!!

Staff Testimony Report – 7/21/09

What’s the GOOD NEWS?

We always begin our staff meetings with reports of what God has been doing. Here’s the latest.

  • We had 38 visitors on Sunday morning.
  • We received great reports from Northpointe church and Folic that their services were totally rocked and there were healings and the Spirit was moving.
  • At the Holy Spirit Conference this past weekend, there was a couple that attended and God did an awesome work. Here is a little bit of their story. He had just revealed to her 2 days earlier that he had an affair. They have 3 children and the oldest who is a pre-teen realized something was up, He asked his mom if everything was OK. She said, no it isn’t but I know it will be OK. While they were here at the conference God helped restore the relationship and she actually said she feels NO anger. On Saturday she talked to her son and he asked how she was and she was able to tell him that everything was doing good and it was going to be alright. He told her that he was praying and she was able to tell him that his prayers worked.
    Another cool thing that happened is that Alisha got a word for her, she felt like she was to give her a name tag that said Princess and that God was giving her a new name. When Alisha gave her the name tag she burst into tears and told Alisha that she was praying for a new name but she felt like God said He would bring it to her. WOW! Isn’t God Cool!
  • Sunday morning we had 1 saved and 2 filled with the spirit with the evidence of tongues.
  • Someone said that Sunday morning she felt a boulder that had been present in her life for 12 years had been removed.
  • Amber was healed of back pain after the word of knowledge came forth Sunday morning.
  • Kalin’s broken toe was healed
  • A word was given to call people and pray for them over the phone. Anna a friend who has been diagnosed with Bi-Polar and after we prayed for her she said, ” I feel Happy.” Also Sharon called her mom who was suffering with terrible knee pain. After they prayed she felt the spirit all the way in California and she was walking around and crying. Totally Healed!
  • Linda’s Back was healed
  • Amy O. was healed of Scoliosis and rheumatoid arthritis! At lunch after service, she said, “My finger hurts, and I am so happy!” When she was asked her if she wanted prayer for it and she said, “No, I have been in so much pain that i didn’t even notice that my finger hurt, but now all the other pain is gone I can feel it. I like this pain. It makes me happy!”

God heals hernias!

Yet another testimony about God moving in the workplace. this is exciting!!

I prayed for a lady here at work on Monday that had a hernia and was in a lot of pain for the past few weeks. She had been taking pain pills all last weekend and had a sonogram last week that showed the hernia and was waiting for her
appointment with the surgeon. We prayed Monday for healing and she could feel the warmth of the holy spirit healing her. She got confirmation today from the surgeon that she does not have a hernia. He could find nothing wrong. She laughed and told him that God had healed her. She has been spreading the word of God’s healing.

Year of Jubilee!!!

Friday, July 3rd, 2009

We received this testimony of financial miracle from a member of our church. God is so good!!

Last week I was sharing with a friend about our financial struggles and how we are behind on our house payments and was in need of a miracle. I told her of the prophetic word that had been spoken over us and how I know God is faithful and he was going to take care of the situation. I also shared how my husband was struggling with a client and how I felt that we should forgive him of the debt he owes us; even though we need the money we need to bless them and forgive the debt. He met with the client the next day and told him that we are forgiving the debt so that it didn’t cause any hard feelings between us he was willing to let it go and he knew we were both struggling financially and this is a way we can bless him and make it easier for him.

My friend gave me this scripture Deuteronomy 15:1-6. I have never heard of the Year of Jubilee before and it really got me excited. I started to pray and claim this as the year of Jubilee for our family.

We were three months (almost four) behind on our mortgage. We spoke to our mortgage company last week and found out that we didn’t qualify for any help and we had to have one payment in by July 1st and the other three payments by July 20th. I knew what God had promised and the prophetic word that has been spoken about this situation. Then a check came in that would allow us to make one payment and give us a couple more weeks of breathing room. We were so grateful and praising God, knowing he would provide the rest.

I know our faith is being tested. Exercising this muscle getting us ready for what God has called us to do.

Monday I went to intercessory prayer and asked everyone what happened in church on Sunday since we were out of town. One thing that that was  mentioned was that God gave a word to Pastor Randy of this being a year of Jubilee and Randy imparted it to the body. I knew that affirmed what God had showed me. Keep in mind that God had made a way for us to make one house payment so we were praising him and thanking him for what he had provided, but today God took it to a whole new level.

Tuesday we called to make a mortgage payment and they asked why? We were told that we didn’t owe a payment until August 1st and for the next three months our payments have been reduced. My husband couldn’t believe his ears and asked him to repeat it three times. We never made an agreement with our mortgage company. The paper work we filled out was denied because we didn’t qualify for assistance. God is our advocate and he provided a way for us not only to keep our house but to have reduced payments. I am in awe of him and his love for us.

Let this testimony affirm to you that this truly is the year of Jubilee for Summit church!!!

God heals knees!

Wednesday, July 1st, 2009

I was at another church for a Sunday night service and Pastor Randy spoke and talked about what all was going on here at the Summit. Then he had everyone who was suffering with some type of sickness or injury. This lady stood up so i went to pray for her. She had some problem with her knee but when we were done praying she said it felt great. Praise God!
