TO GOD BE THE GLORY- A TESTIMONY

It was a fateful day of May 29, 2007 when God showed His tremendous power to my 77 year old father. At first thought, my simple mind said that what happened was a terrible blow to my father and my family as a whole. However, God had other things in mind. Truly our God is doing great and mighty things to our lives (Jer. 33:3). He is Omnipotent, Omniscient and Omnipresent God. This testimony is to thank, praise & glorify the Lord Almighty for the amazing miracle that happened to my father.

When I received a text message from Bicol, telling me that my father has a stroke and was totally unconscious, I made a prayer request to FIT (Fasting Intercessors Team) through prayer partners hotline for healing and deliverance. Likewise, I asked my family members to pray. Before I left to Bicol Sis. Veron and I prayed earnestly for God’s healing touch.

When I arrived in the hospital, I saw my father still weak yet he moved his head and opened his eyes. At the moment, I believe in my heart that God is healing my father. Guided by the Holy Spirit, I prayed for acceptance and deliverance. I observed that he moved his head in response to my prayer and accepted Christ as his Lord and Savior, Immediately, the blood clot on his head diminished and his body was in motion. Indeed, God touched my father miraculously! God is good and He truly listens to our prayers. Truly God is the greatest healer of all. (1Pet. 2:24)
