DOCTORS SAID “HE’S GOING TO DIE,” — FORTALEZA, BRAZIL 2/21/10
A small church on a Sunday morning — special meeting since their Sunday services are at night. We watched as they wheeled a man into the meeting in a wheelchair. The removal of four large cancerous growths had left him unable to walk or even stand, and he had been in the wheelchair for six months. While Carol spoke, Brian (tan shirt) and several others ministered to him.
ANATOMY OF THIS PRAYER–BUT, IT’S NOT A FORMULA
First, Brian shared the testimony of his father being healed of cancer — the power of the testimony. Then as he read Mark 11:22–25, the man’s legs began trembling and he said “something is happening to me.” V 25–”…whenever you stand, praying, forgive…” The man had an issue of unforgiveness, and when he asked for forgiveness he said he felt something leave him. Brian instructed him, “Stand, believing your healing has already been done.” In other words, “Put your faith into action!” With aid, he stood, walked up the platform steps, received prayer, and walked back — to a chair, not his wheelchair. And he later walked out of the church!!
