God is Alive

 I believed I was going to have a testimony of the Power of God, and I thank God that He is alive. I have a sister who is HIV+ and when she told me about it sometime in April this year, she was quite sick. I just prayed that God will heal her.

A few weeks ago, she was much sicker, and I phoned her. I spoke her at length to raise her faith. She had started taking ARV drugs, but they were making her sicker, so she stopped them. This is very dangerous because if someone stops these drugs, you build up resistance to them and possibly die.

After speaking to her on the phone, I told her to believe, and I pronounced her healed. When I said that, I felt a charge of faith and I believed that the Lord had done something. I did not see her after that until today. When I saw her, I was shocked. When I last saw her, she was thin and gaunt, and the skin on her face and hands was getting rough and somewhat discolored. Today, her face is shining and she is looking normal. Her health has improved and her hands are so smooth.

I tell the truth, I lie not. I know she has stopped taking the drugs because she was taken to the doctor by my dad so that he could order her to resume taking them, but she refused because they were making her sicker. Going by medical knowledge, she should be sicker now, but she is getting stronger.

When you preached the last service on Monday, something told me that the power of the spoken word is strong, and I have the confirmation. Surely our God is alive, and He and He alone can heal HIV.

God bless you.
