The voice of God!
12/15/97 12:10 PM
When I became a Christian several months ago, I was told that I had just made the best decision I could ever make.. I don't think I knew the full truth of that statement then, but Praise God, I know it now! In the times since, I've heard God speak to me in ways that I never knew He could.. odd thing to think, isn't it? The One who created it all can obviously do it all! But anyway.. It's ever so subtle, but in the rhythm of my life and all that happens good or bad, I can hear the Voice of God whenever I listen. It's in the way He shows me He cares, that He's listening, and that He worries about what I do and the bad choices I'll sometimes make.. The first time I heard His voice was when I became Christian, at the Fresh Fire Revival.. I was witness to people slain in the spirit, and being of the frame of mind I was, it weirded me out just a bit.. But it was all what God had in mind for me. I left the first evening, went back home, and slept with visions of the evening's events in my head. And no-one there who knew me thought I would ever be back.. but I was. I even brought someone with me. And as I enjoyed the music, watched the spirit do its work, and even felt it brush against me now and then, I drew closer and closer to the inevitable hour. This brought me to the final few moments of my life without Christ... I was sitting in the audience, and in my last moment of ugly human pride, I committed the worst sin possible.. When the preacher asked 'who has sinned', I didn't put up my hand- and it's something I've repented over and over for since. I know I probably covered it that evening, but I still feel very bad about ! it. But I felt purely miserable in that moment, and right then I think God gave me a tiny taste of what life would be like if I continued to fall victim to such lies- what it would feel like to have His back turned on me forever. But it's all part of what He had planned for me.. In the space of just a few minutes, I felt such conviction and saw the light of a fresh start, and knew right then the choice I had. Needless to say, I was the first to go up when the preacher made the altar call! Much to everyone's shock, let me tell you! It's sort of like God was sitting right beside me, and He whispered in my ear "Okay, Todd, get up there- I've done all I can do, now it's up to you.. My Son died for you, are you willing to live for Him and love Me?"

The answer was, and is, and always will be a resounding YES!

God speaks to me this way.. He knows the way I am, and He has since walked with me and shown me all of the things He is and will always be.. I could go on an on forever about everything God has done for me,but you get the picture! I testify the love of God and my love for Him, and glorify Him forever and ever- Amen!

Praise the Lord for his mercy and healing power. In August, our 38 yr. old daughter was diagnosed with INOPERABLE cervical cancer. She is a Christian, a wife, and the mother of sons ages 14 and 7. Prayers went up for her from uncountable congregations. She underwent radiology treatments but the doctors were never encouraging. Just before her second radium implant the doctors were surprised that they no longer could find any cancer. Thoughout the ordeal, Kim never lost a "strange calmness"; she encouraged everyone else. Praise the Lord and thank you for the opportunity to share.

thanks fo r all the pray and e-mail
12/12/97 3:12 AM
I ask for prayer for my miagrane so I could study for my finals. I have passed all my finals and need to take one more Monday at 8:00am. My miagrane went away on Saturaday, Praises to God. However, my head experienced different pain that I have never had to deal with before. I babysitted for 4 cousins Sunday and to avoid one of them getting hurt I was hurt instead. I reaceived what I thought was a slight concussion. It turned out to be a serious concussion. I had forgotten some things that are noe coming back to me. The only thing I can't remember is how my best friend and I met. He says it was special and he drops hints because he wants me to remember on my own. I don't know what we did for his birthday either, and he says that was more special than anything. To remember that is my prayer. But praise the Lord it isn't any worse than that! Thanks for all the e-mail and prayers!

God gave me a wonderful gift!!!

All of my life I've had some sort of auto-immune disease that has affected my digestion. In 1986 I was hospitalized for 4 days with bleeding intestines. Still, the medical profession could only help in treating the symptoms. There is still no diagnosis and now my body is quickly being consumed with arthritis as well. About 5 weeks ago while watching the 700 Club I claimed a word of knowledge they had while praying. My digestive problem was gone immediately. I have been like a child in a candy store ever since! I was down to being able to eat only basic foods with no spices or I would become seriously ill - and still was in pain alot of the time even then. I am so in awe of God's love for me and His power. I will praise and thank him for this miracle and all he's done for me and so many others until he takes me Home.

deliverance
11/30/97 3:15 PM
I pray that this praise report be a blessing to someone who's going thru what I came out of. I prays God for delivering me from the lifestyle of homosexuality. I wanted to be delivered so I surrender my entire being to the Lord. God freed me but the people in the ministry loosed me with the word of God, their encouragement and their support in my deliverance. I was what you may call a fallen minister. Yes, I'm called by God to preach and teach the word of God but I fell. I messed up but, I'm not messy. Praise God for deliverance.

Lives Rededicated, Souls Saved, Full-Time Ministry Calls
11/28/97 8:25 PM
Praise the Lord for His grace and love!! These past couple of weeks have been a blessing to our church. I've been saved 5 months, ( I'm 17), from a life of drugs and alchohol. Amen. My prayers went out to my friends who were still involved. Recently, 2 people told me they were rededicating thier lives to Christ. I have begun dicipiling them!! We also had a young girl accept Jesus as her Savior. I personnally accepted a full-time ministry calling on my life and Praise the Lord for that calling!! I'm still amazed at how much the Lord's using me to diciple at my school. I've been on fire and don't plan on cooling down. The Lord has blessed me with opportunities to give my testimony and preach and I thank Him for that. We have an awesome and annointed church. Our youth leader, (a tremendous man of God), has said that he would put the talent and humbleness of God's gifts on our group on any opportunity in the world. Pray for a fresh annointing and binding of Satan from ! our group. We are Pleasant Garden Baptist Church in Pleasant Garden, NC , right outside of Greensboro. Give us a ring, I love you saints, stay strong, its a battle!! My name is Jonathan. (910) 674-3286

Giving Thanks
11/28/97 12:24 PM
I would like to give thanks and praise our Father who has brought us all together in one body and one mind through his Son, our King of Kings, Jesus Christ.

Jesus is working wonders through out the world in these final days before his return. This Lord of Host Prayer and Praise site is a prime example of how he is working.

Please join me in wishing Jesus a Happy Birthday and pray that he returns soon so we will never be separated from his love again.

Prayer for operation and lost friend
11/19/97 10:56 PM
Dear Lord, I thank you for the Lord Of Hosts and I thank you for allowing me to unite in prayer with fellow Christians. I ask that you be with me during my galbladder operation and let me use it as a testimony for your glory. I ask that you be with my friend who is considering taking his life. Let him know that he needs the life that only you can give. In your Holy Son's name, Jesus, we ask this. Amen.

God is so good
11/18/97 11:55 PM
After years of being lost, God made His presence known to me (actually, I pretty much fell on my face and when I got up, realized for the first time that God was indeed there). Since that experience, about a year ago, I have been blessed with a new life, a new heart, and now, a new family, including the husband I thought I could never deserve. I guess that is mostly what my praise report is about. I was an insecure Christian, doubting whether I was good enough to deserve a mate. I see now that God is so good, we do get things from Him that we feel we may not deserve, but we get them because He loves us all so much!

THANK YOU!
11/14/97 7:51 AM
I THANK THE LORD THAT HE LISTENED TO MY PRAYERS THAT I SHOULD BE SAVED. THANK YOU LORD FOR MAKING MY LIFE MORE EASIER.

Thank you dear Lord for Elizabeth
11/9/97 4:06 PM
Dear Lord, Thank you for allowing Eliz to come into my life at this time. It is a time that is just right and her and I have spoken on the phone and have talked like we both have known each other for years. We talk online and on the phone like brother and sister and at one point: boyfriend - girlfriend. It is truly amazing that "special" people like Eliz walk into my life and not even ask for it. This is the meaning of true unconditional love. We respect each other's circumstances and also support each other in time of need. Thank you Dear Lord for Elizabeth of Aurora, Colorado in Your majestic Mile High City in the beautiful Rockies. Amen, Rich

"His Laboring Few"
10/27/97 10:09 PM
I recently started going to a shelter in High Point NC that God has truly blessed. I don't know how to go into full detail about this God-fearing shelter but I will hit on some of the greatest aspects. The shelter provides the homeless with blankets food and most of all the word of God, the father. It really opens your eyes to see the people that do not have the benefits of going home to a family as I do. But, anyway, I have really been blessed after seeing what has been done and what continues to happen here and I ask that you pray over His Laboring Few.

HEALED
10/27/97 2:52 PM
After my grandma had been in the hospital on and off, the doctors finally figured out that she needed to have surgery. She was going thru some hard times, but the Lord has healed her. I praise God for healing her!!! She is recovering wonderfully!! AMEN!!!

God Gives Change on a Fantastic Phone Call.
10/25/97 1:30 PM
This past Thurs. I made a phone call at my work to an insured regarding a replacement check. (Part of my job entails the calling of insured's about them sending in a possible replacent check and whether they want it returned or not). This insured was so happy that I called that she thanked me personally and said: "You make me very happy, thank you". She has a very heavy German accent and then she was going on about how she thought she lost her check and that she was so happy it turned up. I truly made her day. I had such a smile/grin on me that it I was flying higher than the Mir Space Station. She proceeded to tell about how things were diff. between here and Germany and that I made her day wonderful and that I provided good PR. She thanked me again after I had to call back after hearing from her agent about a possible error. She was glad I called back. I truly was given a return on all the things that have been going on in my life lately. God really does give change. Thank you Lord, RIch in La Habra, Ca.

MY MIRACLE STORY
10/23/97 10:46 PM
My website is at www.pro-files.com/debbi.htm ("Debbi - Healing Your Grief")

I was diagnosed with SLE Lupus in Oct. 95; Antiphospholipid Syndrome in 1990. 50% of people with SLE go on to develop Lupus. My last pregnancy triggered my condition to go into SLE. This is why I miscarried 4 babies (Junior, Christmas Eve 1980; Kimberly Melissa Aug. 25, 1987; Angel Winter Dawn, Christmas Day 1989; Ashley Brooke 9/3/95). We have no living children.

In early May, 1996, a large mass appeared behind my left knee. All summer I was seeing different doctors - no one knew what it was. In September, 1996, the doctors said there was a chance I had soft-tissue sarcoma in my leg. The pain I was having was caused by the mass beginning to cut off circulation in my leg and, being very deep, was pressing against nerves.

I wasn't praying for a miracle cure. I asked God for strength and "Thy will be done."

If it was cancer, I was not going to be able to take any chemo, radiation, or radical surgery. Because of my medical conditions, complications would probably kill me. If I didn't, I would die. We went for a whole week not knowing if I had cancer. Many people were praying for me.

I went for an MRI. During the test, I felt God's presence. I had my eyes shut the whole time and was listening to a tape of songs that included "How Great Thou Art" and "Turn, Turn, Turn" I felt someone adjusting my pants leg and place his hands on my knee. I felt a warmth from the top of my knee all the way through to the back (where the mass was). Imagine my surprise when I thought the nurse was adjusting my pants leg and then hearing her voice from a room behind me where she was monitoring the procedure! No one was there (except God).

Afterwards, I told my husband I KNEW I was healed. I was fine. I had a dream that night and told him about it the next morning. - I dreamed the nurse called and said "There is nothing wrong." Later in the day, they called and said "There is nothing wrong."

I got blood tests results back on Oct. 1, 1996 from a SLE and Antiphospholipid check to see how I was doing. In June they said I was borderline high and they wanted to keep an eye on me and to come back in 3 months. To make this short - I am completely healed. She said my tests came back normal. It's not that I'm in remission, the SLE and other is GONE. I was 5 min. on the phone with the nurse going over this with her to make sure I got this right. I said "you mean I'm in remission and it's still lurking in the background?" She said no, it's GONE. Me:"So I'm normal like you or anyone else?" And she said yes. I said "so SLE and the other isn't even a part of my vocabulary anymore?" Correct.

Praise God. I told her HE healed me. SLE and the other doesn't work this way, but God does. Once you have "it", that's it. You might be in remission, but it's not gone. If you were to have your blood tested for SLE, the norm. # for not having it is 0-12. My # was 5! I called up my Rheumatologist to tell him and see what he thought, etc. He's seen a few cases like this, but this is not usually how it goes. He said to keep doing whatever it is I'm doing.

I believe that the body, spirit, and mind are intimately connected. I also believe in miracles and the power of prayer. Let us encourage one another never to give up hope, no matter how impossible the situation may seem. Nothing is impossible with the Lord. And I'm living proof.

Update: Oct. 1997
God cured me of all my diseases on Oct. 1, 1996. Within 24 hours, my energy was restored (fatigue is common in these diseases). I am feeling terrific! My miracle story appeared in our local newspaper on Christmas Day 1996.

Thank you Father for your many Blessings
10/23/97 10:50 AM

I am truly gratefule and Praise and thank You for all that you have given me. Your servent, your son Anthony

SETTING ME FREE
10/23/97 3:55 AM
I just want the world to know how much I love & praise Jesus and how much he has changed my life. Recently I recommitted my life the christ. I was at a point where I was not hearing God's voice, not excited about God's word, I had absoiuty no idea what God's purpose for my life was. Basically I was in a rut. But our gracious father has brought people into my life to show me the way out. God been showing me things from my past, then taking away the pain associated with it. He has been with me every step of the way, only revealing what I can handle at that time. And now that I'm being set free of all the pain & hurts that I've always carried around, I have this incredibly productive relationship with Christ. I just love him so much, and every day as he heals me some more, I fall more & more in love with him. The breakthrough came when I decided to give it all up to Jesus and let him direct me. I just want to encourage anyone who feels that they are just stagnated wit! h their christianty and don't know how to ignite the fire within them, to seek God, and be open and willing to what he tells you to do. You won't regret it.

God has a plan for EVERYONE
10/16/97 11:52 AM
I was born, 9/23/77, in Massachusetts -- in a city that appeared to be ruled by satan and his demons, and the downside to that is...I was raised up under that ruling. I stole, vandelized -- anything that is of "worldly" nature. Both of my parents were alcoholics (my father still is I imagine, and my mother's last drink came on Christmas day of 1995 when God called her Home). When I was twelve years old (1990), just before I was almost taken away from my parents, my grandparents from Georgia decided to "toy" with their retirement and take custody of me. When I arrived in Georgia, I hated church!!! But to make a LONG story short, God has blessed me with a wonderful church home and family. He has granted me the spiritual gifts of playing the piano, speaking His Word everywhere, but most importantly He has given me the greatest gift of all --Salvation!!! Though many years of my life were wasted on "worldly" things, God knew what He had in store for me the whole time; which ! only proves that God has a plan for EVERYBODY!!!

"Before I formed you in the womb, I knew you."
-Jerimiah 1:5

God Heals Mother of Permanent Heart Damage
10/13/97 8:50 PM
Praise the Lord body of Christ! I just became a member of the internet and I am thrilled to see the wonderful opportunities to spread the good news of Jesus! Recently my mother in law was to have open heart surgery to repair extensive damage to her heart valves. She had aquired Rheumatic Fever as a child and needed medication for much of her life. She had a cardiac arrest about 20 years ago and was not expected to live more than 2 years. My husband and I prayed as did our church for her healing. She was told that she would need surgery this year and was given a 50% chance of survival. My husband told her by faith that she would not need the surgery. When she was admitted to the hospital the doctors did a heart cathaterization to see the extent of the damage. To the doctors surprise the test results proved that she had the heart valves of a 20 year old and would not need the surgery. She is 56 years old! Even greater than the healing, her children see the miracle tha! t God performed and are now seeking God in their lives and desiring salvation!!!

Wanting a Child
10/14/97 9:53 PM
You never know what you will get when you earnestly pray to God. My Hsband and I had been married five years and we really had no luck conceiving a child in that time. We bought a house which was an answer to prayer, moved in, and boy was I even more anxious to become a mother, now that I had a real home to which I could raise a child. We were there six months and still no child to be conceived. Another few month's passed and still no change. I was beginning to feel frustrated and concerned that maybe we would never concieve. That was when I started praying, why didn't I think of it before, God is a giving God. I prayed earnestly for the next few weeks, this was in November. I found out that December that I was expecting. My son is now two years old, what a real answer to prayer he is to us. God is so good and so giving all we need to do is ask and we shall recieve. Praise and glory be to Him. Keep praying and God will answer.

Motorcycle Accident Miracles
10/12/97 7:07 PM
My husband and I were in a motorcycle accident 2 years ago. We were both very seriously injured. My husband was in a drug induced coma for 6 weeks. The doctors told me many times that he was not going to make it but the Lord gave me such peace-I knew he would be alright. The doctors said that both of our chances of never walking again were high, but praise God we can both walk. We still have lots of aches and pains but are far better off than we should be. I thank and praise God for his miracles!

Delivered from satans grasp
10/8/97 12:33 PM
For most of my life I was trapped in the mental health system. My life consisted of being in the hopital more than I was out. Usually living in a group home setting or with family. I had been on practically every kind of medication there was on the market, and nothing was helping. Life was seemingly hopeless. I had been saved at the age of 13 and as a result of sin and playing around with psychics and other demonic events (even though I didn't believe in them) I needed to be prayed over 22 years later and be set free from the grasps of satan. Doctors and hospitals thought all those years that I was mentally ill, but in my case I needed deliverance. God not only gave me a new life without dependency on medications and hospitals, but He also gave me deliverance from cigarette smoking, swearing, and an immoral life. I am now a Spirit filled christian who is on fire for God! PRAISE GOD for His delivering and saving grace!

Let the Revival Begin!! Blessings From Stand in the Gap
10/7/97 7:26 PM
Praise GOD for His marvelous working at the Stand in the Gap Rally. I can't wait to see how His Holy Spirit moves throughout our land, as many inspired Christian men go back to their families and churches. Our church, Bethany Baptist, Wilmington DE, is going to start some serious men's prayer meetings as a result of our trip to Washington. Thanks be to Jesus for the many opportunities for all of us to witness, and share our faith as we discuss what we experienced on Saturday.

Daughter found
9/27/97 7:42 PM
I listed a prayer request about my daaughter missing. Well now Praise the Lord she's been found as of Wen. 9-24-97. Although she's been found we are still not out of the wood's with her yet. I would like to ask prayer for us in finding some form of christain counseling in residential placement, or girls wilderness ranch for her, and that God confirm his will in these matters for us. Also I'd like to thank everyone who sent us email and support. There is nothing like meeting new family members...God is great.! Also a special thank's to (Clay) for the card it tuched my life in a personal way..

CANCER
9/21/97 9:40 PM
My father was diagnosed with Cancer a year ago. He went through radiation treatment...and our family went through many prayers for him. Now, there is no sign of the cancer that could have taken his life. How great Jesus is!!! Thank you Lord from our family for saving our father's life!!!

New job
9/17/97 3:47 PM
God has richly blessed me this year. He has provided a new job, with better pay and benefits, and in a new location. He thought of everything, right down to the color sceme in my new apartment, not to mention, helping me get approved into my new apartment with past credit problems. He is so almighty and bigger than any obstacle or society pressures that might come your way. I want to testify I"ve got the VICTORY!!!

Thank You Father!
9/14/97 11:42 AM
This past week my family had a prayer request fully answered. My mother had been looking for a new job for quite some time now because the income from the other job was barely getting us by. My whole family had been praying for what seemed like a very long time. After application after application had been filled and filed, last week our prayers were answered. Sometimes God doesn't answer our prayers because there is something so much better in His future for us. Patience was the key here and we never gave up our faith in Him, and never stopped praying. Thank You Lord for being always constant in our lives. For everything You give to us daily, thank You.

RENEWAL IS HERE!
8/28/97 11:10 PM
I am a Church Planter / Pastor in the Southern Idaho area and I want to Praise the Lord for what he is doing. For the last four weeks we have entered into a time of genuine Renewal. It is like the year of Jubilee all over again. For the past seven years I have met with many other pastors in my area praying for Revival and Renewal across denominational lines. GOD IS MOVING! HIS CHURCH IS MOVING! Things are happening. He has given us a garment of Praise! He has set our feet to dancin'! Spiritual Renewal has hit Southern Idaho.

Prayers and Advice, please
8/24/97 1:52 PM
I have a friend, Daniel, who had been sleeping with his girlfriend. He has penly discused this with several people and it does not bother him in the least, yet he insist that he is a christian and that it doesn't matter what he does, because God will forive him. I am at a loss as to how to reach him, and have prayed for a very long time about this. I know that he has almost no reelationship with the Lord, and this scares me, because without a walk with God, he may nver realize that what he is doing is wrong. Please, I ask for your prayers, and any advice or guidance you can offer. God bless you.
Heather

Ask, and it will be given unto you.....
8/22/97 5:08 PM
About a year ago I was very discouraged with the way that things were going at my school. Several students were killed and injured in drug related incidents, and the number of kids who didn't know Christ was overwhelming. My youth group prayed about this for a long time, and at the begining of this year our prayers were answered. We have started a Christian Club at school, and even in these first weeks we have seen a change in our classmates. Several students have asked us about our Lord and we have been able to witness to them, and show what he has done for us in our lives. It has been very encouraging, and has spoken deeply to all of us. Thank you God.

got me through yet another tough time......
8/22/97 2:28 PM

God answers prayer request
8/7/97 11:03 PM
I asked God to help me with a situation concerning my mother and I. He truly has helped because just today she bought me a car to use. I am very thankful for the Lord. I can tell he is working a tremendous amount in my life right now. Praise the Lord of Lords, King of Kings!!!

Friend is OK
7/25/97 11:19 AM
My name is John, I am thankful that my friend Mike who was run over my a car is OK, This could have been potentially tragic, but it was not. I had been taking this for granted. I have woken up and realized how fortunate he is, and how fortunate I am to have not lossed a friend. God has recently made me aware of how priceless a little thing like this is.

He may not come when you want him but He is ALWAYS on time!
7/21/97 5:34 AM
Praise the Lord, For the past week I have been stressed out trying to get the title for my car. First the guy who was taking me to get insurance was late and even after I got everything the car was acting up. I left every to God and everything is fine, There no limits to what Satan couod throw in your way but with the Word by your side and Jesus resides in you you have nothing to fear. Wait upon the Lord instead of trying to do everything by yourself and by man. He is an on time God, Yes He is!!!!!!

His Son For Mine

On August 7th, my son, Brady Nichols, will be twenty-months-old and will visit the surgeon that operated on him when he was two-days-old. It was through the trial of his birth and sickness that I came to know Christ. He is expected to receive a clean bill-of-health, as it will be his last visit. Praise God that He sent His only son that, through prayer, my son's life was spared nearly two years ago. Praise our holy father that he still overcomes all sickness and sin to give us joys on earth. Seek ye first the kingdom of God...

On Nov 18, 96 I awoke in the morning about 3am,for some reason I started hemorrhaging,went to the local hospital and was continuing bleeding. The hospital did nothing to stop the bleeding. By 9am I did not know if I would live. The church staff and the people on our prayer chain began to pray. The doctor ordered test to help determine what was causing the bleeding. But at noon the bleeding stopped. although the doctors did 3 major test no cause was found.I had to receive 4 units of blood, but I have not had any more bleeding since. The doctor call me a man of mystery, but I told the doctor, I don't know what caused the bleeding but I do know who stopped it the Lord Jesus.

Glorify, the Lord.

Until 10 months ago I had suffered for 22 years with mental illness. I had been in hospitals more than I was out, I was on just about every medication on the market, I had been in group homes, and had depended on the mental health system for most of my life. I had several different diagnosises some of which were anorexia with bulemia, post traumatic stress disorder, obsessive compulsive disorder, and at the end a hospital diagnosed me with multiple personality disorder. Life was seemingly hopeless. I had been saved at 13 and shortly after my life became disastorous! I finally was sick and tired of being sick and tired and I knew that God was the only one who could cure me. I prayed to God to heal me of my mental illness and of the 2 medical illnesses I also had, and about 2 weeks later an old friend who had also been labeled with mental illness and told me of how God had delivered her from evil spirit posession and set her free! I went up to her church where they believe ! in the power of God the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost, and they prayed over me, and now because of the love of God, He set me free! I now depend on the MIGHTY GOD, SAVIOUR,LORD,DELIVER, CONQUERER for every aspect of my life. No longer am I dealing with side effects and being locked in a hospital when life doesn't seem to be going right. He also took the desire I had to smoke away as if I had never even had the habit all I said was

HEALING OF THYROID
E-Mail: 6/24/97 8:28 PM
In 1990 I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism. This is a disease of low hormone production which affects every organ and issue of the human body. I was told the thyroid is like a thermostat in your house, if it is not working the whole heating, cooling system cannot operate properly. I visited two or three doctors who explained my condition was not a curable one but that if I stayed on my medication (for the rest of my life) I should not have any problems. Needless to say I did have problems and I knew in my heart there should be something I could do to at least improve my condition by some natural methods. Well for three and a half years I searched out a holistic doctor and read everything I could get my hands on concerning the endocrine system. (All of the glands of the body) I started taking natural supplements and praying that God would lead me to the right doctor and the right supplements to help my system heal itself. December of 1996 after my TSH testin! g my thyroid was showing it was producing hormone again! Though it was not a instantaneous healing is was a healing just the same. Praise God that we can look to him and not just the doctors for our healing and health. If you have been praying for a supernatural instant healing (miracle) be encouraged that God will also heal over the course of time as well. I don't know why I did not receive an instantaneous healing but God does and I am healed now. Thank You Jesus for bearing the stripes that I might be whole!

HE answered my prayers for my son's oral surgery.
E-Mail: 6/21/97 6:02 PM
I am a new believer. Next month I'll be celebrating one year as a Christian. I am learning to turn everything over to the Lord (finally). I was very nervous the week before my son's oral surgery. I kept feeling anxious about it so I finally prayed to the Lord the night before for Him to take away my anxiety. The next morning it was all gone and I was completely relaxed. I prayed with my son (age 15) that the Lord be with him during his surgery and make his recovery as painless as possible. My son has had the best recovery I have ever seen of anyone who has had three wisdom teeth removed orally at once. Praise God! He answered all our prayers. Thank you Father.

thanx a million times
6/14/97 11:23 PM
I am so thankful. I thank the Lord for his mercy and faithfulness. I never anticipated that the Lord would work in my life has he just did this past year. I just finished my first year in college and feared that i might lose touch with Christ. Since I had just begun to really understand what it meant to be a child of Christ, i wanted to make sure that I didn't fall apart. Little did I know of the greatness he had in store for me. I praise His name for Bel Air Pres and the College Group that he led me through the love of his wonderful children, Julie and Eric. And I also thank him for Elisabeth, who has taught me so much about reaching out in faith to other Christians as well as (and especially so) to other people in our communities. I thank Him for the awesome people that I have become friends with because of Bel Air Pres, for their love and prayers for me have been answered in such a tremedous way-I have no words to express how awesome/wonderful/terrific He has been to me! I ! thank you for blessing my family that I have been led to UCLA and I have been supported financially enough to be able to live free of money woes facing many of my fellow brothers and sisters. I also want to shout out a word of praise for the safety bestowed upon myself and my family members throughout the year, and especially when doing all of the travelling required to bring me to and from school. I love the Lord for his blessings in providing so abundantly for my future. Lord, thank you for easing my worries about whether or not I would be able to find a roomate or apartment for next year. I am amazed at the speed of your work. Thank you for agressive and determined friends like Susie and Anne for their ability to find such a great place for us in so little time! I thank you, Father for all my answered prayers throughout the year. Finally, thank you for blessing my academic year and the promise of a fun-filled summer, at home, with my old friends, with family, with new friends, with my dog. Thanks you for being my Lord and Savior, and Consellor, and Guidance!
