Physical Healings and Broken Addictions
Last Friday, a group of us ministered in a Church service where we saw many people healed, prophetic words given and addictions broken in the lives of those present.
Since there were about 10 of us praying for people during the ministry time at the end of the service, it was hard to know exactly what God was doing, so at one point I just asked everyone to raise their hands if they had experienced a healing or some other kind of miracle. About 15 people raised their hands out of about 75 people.
I personally saw several healings in the people I was praying for. One man, who was responding to a word of knowledge given (we gave a number of words at the beginning of the service), was completely healed of two conditions he had. When I asked him if he wanted to testify to what God had done, he couldn't as he was crying because of God's goodness towards him. I was really touched.
Another man was testifying that he was about 60% healed when I joined some others who were praying for him. I told him that 60% on a test is a "D" and that God doesn't get D's. I began praying and just started out by asking for 80% (not that it was my goal!). After we prayed again, he said he was 80% healed. We then went for the A+ and after praying a 3rd time, he was completely healed. This should remind us not to give up but to pray multiple times if needed. I found out after we prayed that an area of unforgiveness in this man's live was prayed through beforehand which really opened the door for him to receive healing.
At lunch after the meeting, we sat around talking about all the things God did during the service (one of our favorite past times). I heard about many of the other miracles of healing that the Lord had done. One woman had small tumors/cysts in each of her breasts. After one of our team members prayed for her, she went to the bathroom to "check it out" and see if there was any difference - when she came back, she testified that the tumors/cysts were gone.
God does so many things when He brings His Kingdom and one of the things we saw also was people confessing and being set free from their addictions - mostly sexual ones this past week. Just to see people have an encounter with God wherein they are able to confess, repent and receive a powerful touch from the Lord is amazing. Obviously some of those testimonies will need time to really show that people have been able to walk in freedom - but the initial encounters are powerful nonetheless.
