Testimonies

Look What the Lord Has Done!

I grew up feeling insecure, confused and like I never fit in. Church didn't answer my questions that I couldn't even seem to voice, nor did anything else in my life break that insecurity. I don't know why much of it was. I had a loving family, a good home, but there was always something ever-present, that was always with me, influencing everything I did. And now, after all these years, I know it was the spirit of fear. There were periods in my life where I was afraid of the dark, afraid of dying, afraid of leave home, afraid to stay there, afraid somebody would look at me...There was not peace. And I didn't know what was wrong as I had nothing that I had ever experienced to compared it with. I did not exactly understand how God was relevant to my life.

I did grow up going to church every Sunday and usually Wednesday nights. But I still felt out of place. I know now that an unloving spirit was affecting me life, making it hard for me to love people and very hard for me to accept love from others.

And finally a few weeks ago during Canary Care's seminar in Houston, TX which sponsored Pastor Henry Wright of Pleasant Valley Church Ministries in Georgia, I learned about these things and why I had had all kinds of emotional upsets in my life. God had healed me suddenly of MCS/EI (Multiple Chemical Sensitivity-Environmental Illness) a year ago. At first I strongly smelled the chemical odors but did not react to them as I preciously had. After a couple of months I no longer smelled many of them. And it took quite awhile to realize that I no longer had to do things the way I had done them for 6 years. I had CHOICES! I could even eat nearly everything. It's been quite an adventure to become reacquainted with food! And a growing experience!

As I prepared my generational chart in order to better understand myself and my problems, I could see lots of fear and anger coming down through my generations. There were generational curses--sins coming before allegiance to God in the lives of my ancestors (Exodus 20:5)--placed on my life that I was not even aware of. When I looked at myself and the things that were not me, the many things I was dealing with pointed to fear and anger, which go hand-in- hand. I was loaded. When I confessed the sins of my ancestors (Nehemiah 9:2) and repented to their sins (and my own) of giving that spirit of fear a place in my life, at the request of a special pastor God broke the power of that spirit over me and for the first time in my life I experienced the peace of God (Philippians 4:7). I realized that the many serious problems I was trying to deal with on my own all stemmed from the spirit of fear. Only God could help me with that and I had no even known to ask Him.

At the Houston Seminar this year I learned that all disease with spiritual roots (as in MCS/EI begins with a breakdown in relationships--first with God, then with self, then with man. I didn't have a relationship with God, certainly didn't even like myself, and definitely had a hard time getting along with other people. The way to healing is restoring the same situations in the same order--first, build a relationship with God; next, love yourself as God does; then love your neighbor as yourself (Matthew 22:36-39).

My life is changed now. God has called me to Him and given me a sense of belonging. I am growing more and more to understand who I am in Christ and separating out what is not me from how God sees me. And I'm growing to love others as they have suffered like trials as I have. I am a new creation! (Corinthians 5:17)

Face Cancer Fell Off

Do you think self-hatred is sin? Nobody prayed for her. She came to our program. She heard the truth. If you know the truth, the truth shall make you free. Self-hatred is sin because it calls God a liar. You think God is greater than you?

She sent pictures just before she came to our For My Life program in Georgia a couple of years ago with cancer of the face. Her eyes are dark with anger. 30 days later in the final stages of her face healing, see her eyes, how sparkly they are.

She came to our program with cancer of the face. She hated herself. When she looked in the mirror, it did not say that she was the fairest of them all. And where she looked is where Satan put the disease so that she could be convinced. In our program, For My Life, when we got to the section on self-hatred and in fact, self-hatred is a sin unto death because it produces diseases that are unto death. When she recognized that self-hatred was a sin, God opened her heart. She went from logos to rhema quickly.

She was staying at one of our retreat cabins and when she called self-hatred sin and repented to God for hating herself, that evening the cancer fell off her face onto the floor. God forgave her.

MCS/EI (Multiple Chemical Sensitivity/Environmental Illness

My Miraculous Healing

I would like to share something that happened to me in 2003 that forever changed my life.

After the birth of my son, in December of 2003, I gradually became very ill. Allergies to all kinds of foods were increasing. My strength and stamina were virtually zapped from my body. Within 8 months, I became bed-ridden, only eating very organically (three foods without reaction), and if I went anywhere, I was in a wheelchair because I was so weak to walk. I spent more time in the hospital and with all manner of specialists than I ever wanted to. Finally, I was diagnosed with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome but then later diagnosed with MCS/EI (Multiple Chemical Sensitivity-Environmental Illness.) The bottom line to this disease is that your immune system begins to attack the very nourishment it needs. It treats your food like an enemy. My immune system was way out of whack for sure. I was also diagnosed with Hypoglycemia and Fibromyalgia...just a few more things to content with.

As I mentioned before, I was completely bed-ridden and devastated. I honestly felt the Lord telling me to read the gospels and to keep reading them, (Matthew, Mark, Luke and John), as well as the book of Acts. I told him, "OK, I see what you're getting at...you do heal, then why am I like this? I don't understand. I've done everything in your Word that should have brought me healing and here I lay in this bed, no better than before." (Calling the elders, anointing with oil, etc.) I repent until I thought my "repenter" would fall off. What's going on? Why can't get healed like they did in Jesus' days? I truly was provoked. Day after day, I kept asking, "what am I missing, please help me understand, I don't think it's your will for me to lay in this bed day after day and not be able to enjoy and care for my new baby son...I'm not a happy camper here."

Somehow, I started to believe that Father God was going to heal me Himself, which in the scriptures, He says (Psalm 103) that He is the God that forgives all our iniquities and heals all of our diseases. God is not a man that He should lie, let God be true and every man, a liar.

Then, one night I had a dream that I walked into this store front, almost like an office of some sort, and I said, "I'm here to apply for a job"...they said, "someone will be right with you, they are praying up in the back." Then I woke up and had no reason to believe this meant anything.

Meanwhile, my alternative doctor was getting very frustrated with me saying, "I don't know what to do with you." And he really didn't. One day he gave me this book titled, A More Excellent Way," by Pastor Henry Wright. As I began to read this book something happened that changed my entire life. (I just devoured this book.)

I called my friend and said, where can I go and get ministered to? I know why I'm not getting healed, and I know my church will not believe this stuff." As my friend was telling me of a ministry that taught some of this, I interrupted her and said, "wait, is this a store front, does it look like this, this and this?" She said yes, have you been there before?...I just absolutely wept. I realized that Father God had shown me exactly where I was going to get my healing and I had NEVER been there before...it was all coming together.

Needless to say, my disease was caused from a lot of extreme fear that I had entertained all my life..."fear of man, fear of rejection, fear of failure, all manner of fear." The scriptures say that God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love and a sound mind...well, Pastor Wright (who wrote this book) said, "fear is a sin"...what ever is not of faith, is sin...I had never thought to repent for fear. Generational and personal. Fear really does a number on your body, as does, anger, wrath, lust, rejection, broken heart, envy, jealousy...these aren't just states of mind or sins, they are spirits...we have become one in our minds with these things, and our bodies begin to conform to the image of the sin that we can't seem to get free from. The scriptures say, As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he.

There is so much to this, so much detail, that I can't even do it justice...needless to say, I went to the place where my friend told me to go, and it was exactly as I saw it in my dream. Yeah, GOD!!! I went in, they prayed for me, I repented for all kinds of fears, angers, bitterness, un-forgiveness towards others in my heart and then they prayed over me, casting out a spirit of death and destruction as well as the spirit of fear. All I can tell you, is that I'm totally healed!!!

Not only was I sick with all this stuff but my muscles had also atrophied so bad, you couldn't touch me at all. I was in constant pain from the Fibromyalgia and the atrophy. They prayed for me and commanded my muscles to come back into place, in the name of Jesus, and as they did, I felt this incredible strength go right down the center of my back. My physical therapist was flabbergasted. She said, "the healing you experienced in one day, would take a normal person, 6 months." Of course she was not a Christian either.

it's now 2007 and I'm still completely healed of all the diseases I mentioned above. No more Allergies, MCS, Fibromyalgia, IBS, Hypoglycemia, etc....it's all gone. And since then, the Lord has blessed me with a baby girl that the doctors said I would never have because I was too sick. My first child was born by C-section, but my daughter came naturally, praise God!!!

I have gone to this man, Pastor Henry's church which is located in Thomaston, Georgia since my healing, and I can honestly say, I was so blessed. They have something called, "For My Life" a week long conference (for lack of better description), where they teach you who your enemy is and then they also do ministry. It's incredible. I have had friends come back healed of arthritis, cancer, gall bladder disease and much more.

My own sister and all the women in my family, have all been diagnosed with something called Hydrophrenosis (some kind of birth defect in the ureter tube that goes to the bladder) and when you become pregnant, it can become inflamed and be extremely painful. I ministered to my sister and within and hour it was gone. She was also in a car accident so bad, that she should not even he alive. She was thrown 20 feet out of a vehicle that spun out of control and hit a tree. She was projected from the back seat. The brain damage was extensive. They told us she probably would not make it and if she did, injuries could be massive. At that moment, I was inspired by the Holy Spirit to break the power of death and destruction from my sister, so I did.

Then the Holy Spirit told me to look at the time and remember what time it was that I prayed this. Hours later the neurosurgeon came down and said; well, I don't know what happened in there, but as I began to operate, your sister was dying and I fully expected to lose her. But about an hour into the surgery, somehow, she came back and I have no explanation...she just did." Well, I knew exactly what time they started my sister's surgery and an hour into the surgery was when I rebuked the spirit of death and destruction from my sister, in the name of Jesus...I know that might be a little difficult to believe but many other things happened in my sister's healing that they could not explain.

Anyway, this is just a glimpse into what I have experienced and seen in my own life. I strongly recommend to anyone to take a look into getting a copy of Pastor Henry's book, " A More Excellent Way"...go to his website www.beinhealth.com

Pastor Wright has many, many people working on his staff that have been miraculously healed of all manner of diseases: cancer, leukemia in particular, breast cancer, MCS, MS, heart disease, epilepsy and so many, many more. Their healing came when they began to understand what brought it on. The scriptures say, it's our sin that separates us from our God. Father God has blessed this Pastor with understanding, even from the scriptures, as to what is making man sick and how they can come into healing and a deeper more meaningful relationship with our Father.

Please know that these things can all be found in the scriptures, Jesus told us that we had power to tread on the heads of serpents and scorpions...he gave the 70 the power to heal the sick, cast out devils and even raise the dead. Jesus said, "greater works than these, will you do, because I go to my father" Jesus has given us the tools, we just haven't learned how to use them. We're like little babies wielding around this huge sword (the Word), and have absolutely no idea how to use it.

Let's stop worshipping ourselves, others, our intellect, and get back to doing exactly what the first century Church was doing...we're a long way off folks.

If anyone has any questions, please feel free to ask. This is my personal email address Gina1722@yahoo.com

If you sow and have bitterness against your mother-in-law, don’t be shocked if tumors appear in your right breast. And if you have bitterness against your mother or one of your sisters, don’t be surprised if tumors appear in your left breast. Or if you find tumors in both breasts, don’t be surprised to find that if you have bitterness both against the sister or a mother and mother-in-law or another female, maybe in your church or where you work.

We have seen for a number of years the connection between bitterness and breast cancer. A lady who attended the seminar to the Wycliffe Bible Translators in North Carolina from which the transcript became the book “A More Excellent Way, sat in the audience with tumors in both breasts. She had bitterness against her mother and she had bitterness against her mother-in-law and she sat in the audience and didn’t come up to me. We didn’t have a day of ministry. We just taught for three days the principles. And she left that conference. Never said a word to me. She went back to her home with something called conviction. Conviction is the work of the Holy Spirit. Condemnation is a work of the unholy spirit. Whenever you feel condemned, it is the enemy; when you feel convicted it is always the Holy Spirit.

She went home with the truth. And the truth pierced her because she had the bitterness issues. Talking about left breast, right breast. I have doctors that have been impacted by our teaching on cancer who have been doing case histories with their patients and going back and reviewing the pathways of case histories of those females to see if they had bitterness in the area that I see it. And sure enough, they have seen it every single time. But here’s what they have discovered: tumors that form in the right breast is bitterness between that female and another female that is a non-genetic family member like mother-in-law or some other person maybe or of the women in the church or something. But tumors that form in the left breast are against a genetic female like mother or sister and they have found that 100% of the time.

So this lady in North Carolina began to recognize that bitterness against her mother and her mother-in-law was sin. She recognized that bitterness was a sin. She repented to God for her bitterness. And in her heart these words formed, “Go to your mother and deal with her.”

So she made an appointment with her mother and repented to her mother for her bitterness and made peace with her mother and when she was re-checked by her doctor, all tumors had left only one breast.

She went to God in her prayer time and said, “God, how come only one breast?” And in her mind’s eye these words formed, because you have only done half the work. What about your mother-in-law? When she made the appointment with her mother-in-law, she went and confessed her bitterness as sin and repented. When she was re-checked by her doctor, all tumors had left the other breast. And she has been tumor free for five years. I know her well.

…a few things I will tell you that have led us to being able to conceive a child.
I am an emotional, physical, verbal and sexual abuse survivor. I never in a million years thought I could ever get past these awful events in my past. I have had multiple illnesses that included asthma, allergies, infertility and Hodgkin’s disease. I have been working with the help of your book, A More Excellent Way. I am now free and clear of all of the above illnesses. I never though I could have this kind of peace and joy in my life. Being pregnant has been one of the greatest blessings of all, after being told by doctors that I would never have children due to the radiation I received for the Hodgkin’s disease. I believed them, and went on my way until I truly found out how wonderful God is, and how hanging on to the past was so binding, and how idle words can be such a curse. Thank you for your ministry, and for being obedient to what God has asked you to do.
K.

It has been almost 3 months since I was there and I want to thank you for all you did for me during my 3½ week stay. Never before have I experienced so much love from anyone outside of my immediate “Christian Family.” The friendship that I received from the fellowship and the women I lived with will stay tucked away in my heart for my lifetime.

The good news is that I am healed, no just in the faith, but also in the body. Whatever disease Satan tried to put on me, whether Crohn’s disease or ulcerative colitis, his plan failed. Not only am I fully and completely healed from the disease but, I am also healed from the spiritual bondages and generational curses that I carried for 50 years of my life. I have been giving my testimony about how I was released from the torment of the “Unloving Spirits” from the very first time that I learned of their existence and how they convinced me to believe that was who I was. I will continue to help others in their search for truth, giving the glory to God using the knowledge that I received while staying at your ministry.

Because of your personal commitment to help me get well, because of countless hours of teaching, patient and loving ministry, because you have a pastor’s heart to go after lost sheep and pull them up out of the pit of destruction, because you have a heart that reaches out to suffering people, because you understood how to approach a person with and anti-Christ spirit, because you love Jewish people and the foundations of the Christian faith in Judaism, because you knew how to disciple me without preaching salvation with a big drum, because you showed me that the Bible applied to my life on an everyday basis, and your staff are the first Christians I ever saw apply to my life on an everyday basis, because you gave me the respect I needed to receive in order for me to listen, because you and your staff are the first Christians I ever saw apply the Word of God, and because you and your staff do not condemn people who are sick, or who are non-Christians, because your prayers and your staff are the first prayers I ever saw God respond to, because you have such and extensive knowledge of the Word of God and can explain human being’s situations through scripture – I am healed of:

Devastating Multiple Chemical Sensitivities/Environmental Illness Hypothyroidism
Extreme hypoglycemia
Leaky gut/mal absorption
Extreme food allergies
Electro-Magnetic field sensitivity
Chronic fatigue
Nightmares
Depression
Central Nervous System damage
Neurological Dysfunction
Injuries on hands healed (had no healed for 3 years)
Knees healed (would slip out of alignment for past 2 years)

I looked like a person whose entire life had been destroyed and it seemed that I would be dead soon. I missed my daughter’s college graduation because I was too sick to travel. When she dropped me off at Pleasant Valley two years ago she said, “I expect you to be at my graduation from law school in three years.” Henry, because of your work, I will be there.

I have been given back my life. I now have the opportunity to experience God’s abundance as I go forward, walking in the Word. I am excited about what God has in store for me. I am exited about being in relationship with God throughout the rest of my life. I am excited and relieve that He is in charge of my life and I don’t have to figure it all out. I am excited that He has a plan for my life and that there is work for me to do for Him. I am so relieved to have a focus that is no based on human strength.

Thank you for introducing me to the true God. I searched for Him all my life in all the wrong places. I am so happy.

I had been diagnosed with thyroid cancer. I went through surgery and treatment but I ran to my Father when I was first diagnosed and He has walked with me through and incredible journey of discovery. Your ministry was part of my recovery.

Jesus came that we might have life and have life more abundantly and Satan’s job is to kill, steal and destroy that life. I am happy to say that I believe God showed me the root of my cancer and I am well on the way to recovery. He has also promised to “complete me” or finish the work He started. I recently went back to my surgeon for follow-up testing. He said the cancer was back and I would have to have more surgery and follow-up radiation treatment. I went back to my Father, who dealt with three other issues in my life. When the “official” pathology report came back it showed No Cancer. I know Jesus has healed me and part of that healing is restoration

---Several months ago I was diagnosed with Ovarian Cancer.
At first fear tried to come in with having to face death. There is a scripture that says, “If you try to save your life you will lose it.” I had to come to the point of releasing everything to God and take my hands off. The moment I did, I heard God say, almost audibly, “This test has come to pass.”

I called Pleasant Valley. Two years ago I attended a seminar there and was healed of life-threatening allergies. Knowing the ministry there and their faith, I felt free to call. A minister prayed with me. Roots were dealt with and she spoke to my body, basically telling it to come into order

After this I kept hearing the word “integrity.” I realized there was still some fear and I wasn’t trusting Father God’s integrity. I deeply repented, knowing He has life for me, not death, good, not evil and even His thoughts for me are good, not evil. This word carried me through the test and still carries me daily.

I did have surgery and 99% of the cancer was taken out. Knowing God doesn’t do a 99% work, I knew the last 1% was for some other purpose.

My oncologist was a Christian and a wonderful brother in the Lord. I shared my faith easily with him.

I sensed God had touched me outside of the surgery. I asked the doctor what tests I could take to prove if, in fact, I still had remaining cancer. He told me of 3 but the most accurate was the blood test. Meantime, many people were praying and supporting me.

I had my blood drawn and the doctor called me saying, “You confuse me.” I asked, “How?” He said normal blood count was 35, yours is 23. I thought it would be 200. (23 is very good.) The second blood test, my count was 17.7. The doctor said, “You are clear, come back every few months to keep a check.” I told him, “I know in my knower I’m healed and sealed. Hallelujah!!!

Saying that you have faith means nothing until you understand what true Faith is all about. This is exactly what happened to me. Even though I had been saved and I was reading the word of God every day for 19 years, my eyes were not open to see the truth and the value of God's word, until my visit to Pleasant Valley where I met Pastor Wright and received the most wonderful ministry and most important the baptism of the Holy Spirit...(this is different from water baptism), my eyes were open and my ears heard the words I so many times read but didn't understand them well enough to put them in practice. I have to confess now that I used to be a pew warmer, hard to accept but this is what happen to most Christians.

I learned that healing comes from within. We need to get right with ourselves and others. During the ministry Pastor Wright brings us to a place where we can recover ourselves from the snares of the devil.

While reading the book "A More Excellent Way" on page 12, I came to this paragraph that convicted me so much. Here the Pastor tells of what someone said to him:

"Pastor... I believe God gave me my disease. I'm closer to Him because of it."
He had someone else say: "Well, I just believe my disease is from God--it just teaches me how to be humble. It's my thorn in the flesh, but His grace is sufficient for me."

Well, here comes Pastor's reply again..."You hypocrite! How dare you interfere with God's will in your life by going to a doctor?"

I don't know about you but this hit me right where it was supposed to...my faith was weak, I was running to doctors before God...but I tell you now, because I know what true Faith is, I only go to my Father God in the name of Jesus Christ to ask for everything. Since I received my healing 4 years ago, I don't use the doctors for anything at all, and I won't unless the Holy Spirit tells me otherwise. I can say I am closer to God for what he has done for me.
God Bless, EMC NY

I gave my heart and life to Jesus Christ on September 2nd, 1996, during the extended lunch break of your New York Seminar. God extended it for that to happen! Praise God!

Since then, all food allergies have disappeared, blood sugar problems have also been healed by Him. I had over 100 food allergies and was binging and using laxatives daily. I had no life except for thinking about my illness, etc.

I am a 22-year-old who had epilepsy for nineteen years and I was told about this place Pleasant Valley by a good friend. I looked through the brochure and read about the things offered and the insights provided. When it came about time to go, Satan knew something was up and he comes to rob, kill and destroy. I started saying, "I'm not going to go" and that's when the jealousy started rising up. I said to my sister, "You and Daddy will get a closer relationship." But Satan did not win. I give God all the glory. I did go because I was blessed. When I came my life was changed from the inside out, the anger and bitterness that I had toward the abusers is not longer there. And the jealousy I had of my sister was released. When I released it all, God said that He did something marvelous in my life. It was a miracle.

During the lessons of fear and unloving spirits, I asked God to forgive me once again, for I had held so much inside of me. When God said to me to release it, all of this was released and they called out epilepsy. I claimed my miracle and was amazed claiming the miracle: I got it! When we returned back to where we were staying, I realized I had gotten my miracle because where I had brain surgery, a portion of the left temporal lobe was removed in 1997, I could put my fist in the area where it was removed. I no longer can do that! God created a new portion of my brain and brain cells!

I called my dad last night who is a non-believer. I'm believing God is going to use this awesome miracle for his salvation.

My sister and I went to visit my son who was diagnosed with severe Crohn's disease. We were told later that even if he had the operation, that it would have done him NO GOOD because it was so far advanced.

We brought him the book A More Excellent Way and then we discussed his healing. He believed that God wanted him to have this disease as a cross to bear. A LIE... We told him that it was a lie that he was believing. I fasted for 5 days and I had GERD or Acid Reflux for 11 years. I gave up my pills and put out a fleece and told the Lord, "When you heal me, then I know you have healed my son." I didn't know what to expect, but I began reading the book, I knew what I had to do.

So, on that Thursday my sister came in from Michigan and met me in Chicago and we drove to Minnesota to speak to my son regarding the generational curses and the root of his disease. After talking to him for 6 hours, I got up and repented and asked his forgiveness for severely abandoning him when he was 4 years old, because his dad (a Pentecostal minister) left me and I had to go to work. I saw the change come into my son every time I left to go to work or go out with another man, he was so crushed.

I asked his forgiveness and I then broke the generational curses which were many in my family with colon problems, Crohn's disease, throat cancer, Multiple Sclerosis, Manic Depression, double personalities, mental problems, Alzheimer's, heart diseases, cancers of lung, brain and kidney cancers and ANGER... and on and on. I cursed the generational curses and immediately he felt something release. He looked like death warmed over.

We convinced him to seek counseling at a church in Minneapolis. He went the next day (Saturday). On Tuesday, the next week, he went to visit his doctor who was going to do the surgery and told him that he was healed. The doctor didn't believe him and took a test and came back and told him to get rid of his pills because he was healed. He was plagued with this disease since he was 14 years old and now he is 31 years old. He never testified and now he is being asked to preach in his church because he was delivered.

I was also healed of GERD/Acid reflux. Thank you, thank you, thank you...

The Lord used you to get me healed/delivered from bipolar disease. I was raised in a strict religious (not Christian) home. My first recall of problems with depression occurred after being rejected by my high school sweetheart. We had dated for almost 3 years and planned to marry after we both finished college. When I got my "Dear Jane" letter I was devastated, my grades dropped, I gained weight and I turned to daily religious activities (not Christian). I dated a little and was very "proud" to be in a very small minority to be a virgin at graduation.

By then I was old enough to drink (legally) and my inhibitions left and soon I was pregnant. Being afraid of my parents' reaction and sharing that fear with my doctor, the enemy used him to suggest that I did not have to tell them. In 1971 abortion was not yet "legal," so off to a dirty, secret place in an eastern city I went.

The shame of that horrible decision is what I have come to understand was the open door for the enemy.

It wasn't until only recently when I took the responsibility and stopped blaming others or using the crutch that I was mentally ill that my freedom began, Praise God.

You see starting in 1975 in Alaska and ending in Minnesota in 1007 I had been in mental hospitals a total of 8 times. When I became coherent after my first stay, some of the staff told me they had never seen anyone as bad off as I was and they were certain I would be locked up in the back wards of a State Hospital the rest of my life.

I have been off and on medications since 1975. But this time because by God's grace and love and the help of the teaching and ministry through Brother Henry, I believe the root(s) have been exposed. I took the godly counsel to taper off the meds with the oversight of my health care professional. July 17, 2001 she asked if I was ready to be off the depakote completely! I floated out of her office. Praise Jesus.

Thank you again for being obedient to the Lord's call on your life to "Set The Captives Free."

I was diagnosed with Stage III uterine cancer in April of 2003. An emergency hysterectomy operation was performed, but the malignant tumor was still present. My doctor advised chemotherapy treatments so I agreed to the first two in June of 2003.

I lost my hair and almost 25 pounds and felt awful. I was scared to go on with six more treatments and didn't know how I could keep on working as a real estate broker. Then things began to happen.

A $449.000 real estate listing came my way. The second day it was offered, I got a call from another broker whose customer gave full price. I arranged to meet the broker to complete the contract papers, and then came a surprise. After our meeting I asked him if he could stay for a while and chat with my husband and me. I had never met this man before, and I rarely discuss personal matters with strangers, but felt close to him and told him my story.

He listened patiently and then revealed that he had considerable experience in ministering at the VA Hospital and Hospice, and that he understood my concern. When I asked him what to do, he said, "I can't really help you, but I have a booklet that tells you how to help yourself." The booklet was provided by Pleasant Valley, entitled "New Insights into Cancer." I read it that same evening, twice.

I began to realize the importance of forgiving others and that I had to get rid of the bitterness I had towards my ex-son-in-law. It was like a light bulb went off in my head. I had to forgive him, and I did. It happened in the driveway of my home just before he left my 11-year-old grandson to visit me. They were both in shock when I told him I was sorry and that I loved him. We both cried as we hugged each other. Wow!

This was on a Thursday, the day after I read the cancer booklet. The next day I went to my appointment for chemotherapy treatment, and to the surprise of both my oncologist and my radiologist, the cancer had completely disappeared! A miracle!

I know now that bitterness were the cause of my cancer, but most important to me is that God heard my heart asking Him to forgive me for judging someone else. I call it a matter of DIVINE INTERVENTION of a God who loves me. I praise Him and worship Him. He has changed my life forever.

I had been diagnosed with Sleep Apnea in August 2003 and had been under a sleep mask with 14 pounds of pressure since that time. When I spent the night at the sleep clinic, I was told I stopped breathing 139 times during the course of 6 hours of sleep. Five times it was very severe, almost up to 2 minutes! I might add that I have two other sisters that have this problem. One sleeps with a mask and the other had major throat surgery about a year ago. The mask is much like a pacifier to a baby. Habit forming! Feels like security.

I was set free of Sleep Apnea during the Saturday morning prayer of For My Life. My freedom came when I specifically asked how "Freemasonry" came under the occult. I had felt a "bit of stirring" in my spirit during the teaching on Occultism. My dad and granddad (mom's dad) were both in the Masons. My question prompted our group manager to inquire from the leader if this could be involved with sleep apnea.

As you know, the battle in "walk-out" began soon after I returned home. I had terrible nightmares. It did not wake me, but I had a very bad headache the following morning. In fact, it was the kind of headache I had when I did not get adequate oxygen to my brain. Medication never seemed to offer any relief. This was a strong "set back" for me. The doctor, at the sleep clinic, had told me it is possible to have a stroke or heart failure when one does not get adequate oxygen to the brain. I had suffered with this particular kind of headache off and on over the years, and very severely for at least a year prior to diagnosis of sleep apnea. I knew I could not allow this to happen to me.

A friend encouraged me to renounce and make my declaration out loud. THIS SAVED ME FROM GOING BACK UNDER THE MASK THAT VERY NIGHT! I looked at the mask and had a struggle but finally decided. "I was not going back under it. I believed God's Word to be truth, and I staked my claim to my deliverance and have remained free since April 30, 2004! Praise God! In fact, the mask has been packed away out of my sight.

I have continued to make my declaration every night that "I am free of Sleep Apnea. I will have the sweet sleep promised to the beloved of God. I am free of Sleep Apnea and whom the Son sets free is free indeed." My sleep is sweet and I have not had any further symptoms. I AM FREE!! HALLELUJAH!
