| "Then
they cried to the Lord in their trouble, and He saved them out of darkness and
the deepest gloom and broke away their chains. Let them give thanks to the Lord
for His unfailing love and His wonderful deeds for men." For
me it was difficult to think what could ever happen in my life as the enemy controlled
over me. But joy is the by -product of my recovery. It just happens! A day come
wherein God rescue me from the bondage of the enemy. It was the day of my recovery
after the darkness fade into sunrise and joy come in. I experience joy and victory
where so long only sadness resided. Praise will come from my mouth and I will
enjoy sharing my story of recovery with God whom is my perfect trust came from. I
praise the Lord for His marvelous deeds of saving me from the darkness and artwork
of the devil. Last July 6, 2008, I was sick of fever. I took some medication for
fever but the fever was on and off scenario. I still managed to report in my duty
as a waiter. The fever lasted for one week already. After one week, I felt so
weak and still had a fever. We decided to confide in the hospital. It was July
11, 2008 that I was in the hospital. The doctor's told me that I was afflicted
with typhoid fever. I was given medication. One day in the hospital, I collapsed.
As I woke up, I became so wild. I banged my head in the wall and I wanted to run
around the building. I wanted to detach the dextrose in my hand and I was so restless.
So with that condition, I was tied up. I was given biogesic and injection as my
medication but the fever was not healed and my behavior became so indifferent.
We decided to go home. We sought healing from different quack doctors but still
no healing found. I became so indifferent in terms of my behavior and I lost my
consciousness of reality. I still became wild sometimes, I'm afraid to see people
around, I usually thought that somebody would kill me that's why, I used to became
wild to protect myself. I was brought to the Psychiatrist for medication. I was
given depressant and I became a little bit relaxed. But my fear and worries got
worst. I suffered anxiety disorder and had some delusions. October 2008, one of
our neighbor in Mansasa, introduced Jesus to us as great healer of all forms of
sicknesses. I sought healing from prayer through the Catholic Charismatic Renewal
Movement. I started to attend the prayer meeting. After the first prayer meeting,
I was able to feel relaxed and was able to sleep well. I continued to attend different
prayer meetings. I learned from the different people attending the prayer that
Jesus heals through His Holy Words in the Bible. I learned also that if we call
Him Jesus in our prayer with faith, He will surely answer as promised in Jeremiah
33:3. I learned also that reading the Bible is the best medication of all forms
of sicknesses. So I started to read the Bible regularly. I used to read Psalm51,
91 and 103. I continued attending different prayer meetings. I went to Lila town,
Loay and other places to serve God in prayer. After several prayer meetings, God
defeated the enemy who lives in my life. I was healed completely. Truly, prayer
and the words of God are the best armor to stand against the devil schemes as
written in Ephesians 6: 10: 16. As of the moment, God gives me complete healing.
I was able to go back in my work and everything is all right. I praise God for
saving me from the bondage of the enemy and giving me the grace of faith and healing.
I am now serving the Lord and continue to spread the good news that Jesus still
works miracles until this point of time through His Holy Words in the Bible. I
continue to testify that this is true and my experiences were concrete proof that
Jesus is miraculous God. With Him nothing is impossible as written in Luke 1:37.
Thank you also to the management of Sunday Post for this column. Alleluia! Amen!
