Dearest Friends,This Testimony just came to me via one of our very own here on
Poetrypoem and with all the different trials and reports given us these days
I was led to share this on a page by itself hoping those that have been
diagnosed with cancer might take this prescription that was given to our
friend from the Great Physician that we should fear not,for Jesus blood
is enough to cleanse you from any ailment,or disease,in fact it was
already done on the cross and it is the living word that brings health
and life to us.Be Blessed as you read this and Praises be to God for
healing our Sis in Christ,Irene/fellowpoet @ poetryechoes.
Irene asked me to share her amazing testimony Below...
~Sweet Peace ~My testimony~
~Oct. 11, 2009~
For I will restore health unto thee, and I will heal thee of thy wounds, saith the LORD...
Jeremiah 30:17
A sense of panic washed over me at the time I heard my doctor's report on the result of a routine sonogram taken of my neck. "You have two tumors on the lymph nodes in your neck, she stated. "We are looking at biopsy, surgery & definitely chemo to begin the treatment of these tumors. But that will come later on down the road. I suggest we start your treatment as soon as possible."
I clutched my husband's hand, as panic washed over me. I could not believe the words I heard her say in such a cold way. But then doctors have to remain impartial to better choose the type of treatments most suitable for their patients. A million questions rushed to my mind, yet I did not have the strength to voice any. In a daze I heard my husband ask for a second opinion & for a second sonogram to be taken. He & the doctor talked for what seemed to be hours as I became impatient to leave the doc's office. I wanted to be out of there as soon as possible. I was in complete denial.
We received this bad health report one year ago & from that day, my husband & I began to prepare for the spiritual battle, we knew lay before us. We told only a few family members & friends about my bad news. We hesitated to tell my husband's elderly parents about the turmoil going on in our lives because we didn't want to worry them. When I told my eldest daughter, she said in a matter of fact way, "Mother, nothing is the matter with you! Please think positive!" Oh, how she soothed my heart! My spirit rose up to embrace her words. My youngest daughter was equally supportive. Bless their hearts!
So while the rest of the world went along on their merry way, my husband & I prepared ourselves to submit to God's will over my life. From the first day, I refused to accept the doctor's verdict. I know the devil is a liar & a thief, he just wants to trick us into giving up prematurely. So my final choices were not to get the biopsy, not to start null & not to return to the doc. for further medical treatment. I decided to place my life in the nail-pierced hands of Jesus Christ. I know my faith is strong enough to stand up against this attack from the enemy. I know the power of prayers. I know the stripes of Christ has already healed me on the cross.
Roy agreed with me whole heartedly & we carefully planned exactly what we'd do.To start off, I wrote the living Words of God on many index cards and taped them to every space I could find on the walls in our home. Whenever my eyes saw the Words, I said them aloud. I asked a dear church sister to come to our home to lay hands on me. She brought her daughter with her & they prayed for me, sang hymns, chanted & joined hands, while they swayed in a ritual dance around me. They then anointed my entire body with oil which they blessed. It was a beautiful experience for Roy & I.
It was the first time we experienced such a ceremony. The presence of the Lord was tangible as we joined in prayer.
My husband and I declared my healing each day and thanked our God, Jehovah, null for healing me. We cursed the tumors out of my body in the name of Jesus. We commanded every cancerous tumor to leave my body in the Name above all other names. We pleaded the blood of our sacrificed Lamb to wash over me from the top of my head to the bottom of my feet. We said the rosary three times per day & we prayed the Chaplet of the null Mercy every day at the mercy hour of three o'clock.
We closed our door and withdrew into the quietness of our home. I changed my diet to a much healthier one. In the garden of Eden the Lord provided Adam and Eve with all sorts of nuts & fruits, which were very healthy, so I began eating nuts, fruits & veggies to strengthen my immune system.
It's very important to strengthen the immune system when fighting cancer. I eat lots of honey with cinnamon as a spread on bread. I also added lots of garlic to my meals. I sprinkled cinnamon on everything. I started a routine of breathing deeply & did it daily during my exercises. Oxygen kills cancer! Getting out in the fresh air is essential.
Roy drove me around on peaceful rides in the car during the summertime. We enjoyed the beautiful scenery of Lake Hutson & visited all the tourist sites around New York. We also stopped watching regular TV. I shifted my mind completely away from my illness. We rented lots of funny DVD's & we laughed until we cried. It is said that laugher triggers a chemical in the brain that destroys cancer cells.
Our faith was made stronger by watching the Christian channels. I wrote my prayer requests in to TBN, CBN, CWTN, Billy Graham, Rod Parsley, Aquilla Nash's Prophetic Whispers and many other Christian networks. They prayed with me on the phone. We literally ate the living words of our Great Physician. A thousand times per day, whenever my husband and I saw God's Words written on our walls, we repeated them aloud. Our lives slowly changed in many ways.
My neighbour did not understand the reason I had the living words of God written all over my walls and when she saw them, she though I was shouting out for some kind of help. She thought our life style was weird and told her friends that she thought something very strange was going on with us. I guess to those who don't understand, it was very easy to pass a negative opinion of us.
But we know what the bible says about eating the Words of God. We know the mighty power of the living Word. We surrendered ourselves totally to the will of Jesus Christ. We soaked in God's Words with each passing day. We filled our hearts, our thoughts, our mouths and our lives with nothing but the Blessed Words of the promises of Jesus Christ. We took God's promises from the bible and surrounded ourselves with them like an invisible shield.
Slowly our faith grew stronger day by day. One day while listening to Aquilla Nash on her TV broadcast, I heard her speak my name and she said in a firm voice, "Irene, Irene, the Lord will use you in a mighty way." At once I claimed her words as my own and at that moment, I knew in my heart, that the Lord has a mission for me to do in the future.
Days afterwards I was rushed into the ER due to complications of diabetes & hyper tension. While lying there I pondered Aquilla's words in my heart. As the doctors and nurses gathered around me, my heart was content. I knew that I had been chosen to carry out a very special mission for my Lord.
After taking many scans and tests in the hospital, the doctors happily told me that they could not find anything wrong with me, except for a urinary infection. They gave me a clean bill of health!
I was not surprised in the least bit. Our God reigns supreme! Glory! Alleluia!
Of course they could not find anything wrong with my blood because I carry the perfect DNA of my crucified Lord. Of course they could not find anything wrong with my heart because it beats perfectly for my Creator. Of course they could not find any cancerous cells growing on the lymph nodes in my neck because the Light of the Holy Spirit shines brightly inside me, which washed away the contamination of anything foreign and unholy. God takes care of His own!
The sweet peace of the Holy Spirit fills our hearts and home once more. We have passed through the valley of shadows & we've literally seen the precious nail pierced hands of Jesus Christ move over my life. It was a wonderful experience.... I would not have missed it for the world!
I share my testimony to encourage anyone who may face the same fears which froze my heart, one year ago. I want my life to be a living testimony of the powerful healing grace of our Divine Healer. The Word of God is alive! Trust and believe with all your heart! May God bless you in abundance!
