Testimonies – Ki

Here is a testimony from Ki from his workplace:

Work:

I was sitting at my bench in the chemistry lab doing some work and my co-worker, Alex, comes in asking about my trip to San Diego. I took a deep breath and realized I had to tell him I was in San Diego healing people at a large outreach event.

“I went around healing people”
“what?”
“I prayed for people and they got healed”
“You mean, you did some kind of medical work with people?”
“No, I just prayed for them and they got healed.”

After a few more exchanges of this, I knew he wouldn’t really understand so I stopped the conversation and asked him to come to the office with me.  In the nearest empty office, I checked his legs and found that his left leg was about 2 cm shorter than the other one.

I told him I was going to grow out his leg to be even with the other and he responded with a weird look and said “okaay” pretty sarcastically.  I commanded it to grow in Jesus name and it came out.  He said he felt it grow and gave me some more weird looks.

I told him that if he had any back pain, he should have them a lot less now because they’re usually the result of uneven legs.  After I said this, he mentioned our other co-worker, Joanne, usually has a lot of back pain, so I went and brought her to the office and I grew her legs out as well with Alex watching.

She didn’t have back pain at the time, but told me she wished I was there last week to pray for her back.  We decided to get my other co-worker, Jackie, and ended up also bringing her into the office.  I checked her legs and saw they were noticeably off, much more than Alex or Joanne’s legs.

She knew they were uneven and jokingly laughed after I told her I was going to grow out her shorter leg (She is an atheist and believes in nothing supernatural, or now, I should say believed).  I commanded it to grow and it came out pretty fast while both Alex and Joanne were watching pretty closely.

As Jackie sat there somewhat perplexed, I asked Alex how his sinuses and lungs were (he was coughing and sniffling a lot).  I put a couple of fingers on his throat and commanded his sinuses and lungs to clear up and told him to take a few breaths. After breathing in and out a few times clear of congestion, he looked at me surprised and asked, “How did you do this?”

For the next 40 minutes I preached the good news to them.  I explained I was able to heal because the creator of the universe, Jesus, dwells in me, and when I speak, I speak with His authority and whatever is in violation of His will must obey.

I preached what church really was and what it was not.  I told them I don’t go to church, but I am the church 24/7 and apologized for all the hypocritical Christians that act one way on Sunday and another way Monday through Saturday.  I told them God is not an angry God, but loves everyone, believers and unbelievers alike, and desires to be in communion with them.  I explained the full meaning of the sacrifice of Christ and what it now means for them.

After I finished, Jackie sat there, staring at the ground repeating, “this doesn’t make sense, this doesn’t make sense.”  It was the first time she had seen anything supernatural, and to a purported atheist, I am sure none of what she saw would make sense!  However, both Alex and Joanne believed my words.  Moments later, Alex mentioned hanging out with me more and visiting his brother who is suffering from a severe autoimmune disease.

About 30 minutes later, lunch time came and everyone sat together pretty quiet in the kitchen eating and thinking about what just happened (I assumed).  Another one of my co-workers, Oro, came in and I grew his leg out as well and then asked if he had any pain anywhere else. He told me his left knee, so I hit it a few times and almost all the pain completely left (a few days ago he told me there was no pain at all).  After Oro sat down from checking his knee, Jackie asked, “What if someone got shot?  What about the bullets?”

“It doesn’t matter, the bullets will disappear or come out.”

“What??”

She asked me a few more questions, and I told her anything that is wrong and not supposed to be there can be healed.  To test me some more, she mentioned her neck was actually kind of aching.  I said okay, and walked over to her and put two fingers on the back of her neck and commanded all the pain to go.  She shifted her neck from side to side to check it.  She smiled and said, “Actually, I can’t really tell right now.”

I knew all the pain had left, but she didn’t want to admit it.  A few seconds later, Alex tells her he saw her leg grow out and checked her legs again and both saw they were still even.  =)

I have been working with these people for three years now and have shared my faith with them before, multiple times, but I was never able to demonstrate it until now.  I am excited for the future and know great things will continue to happen in my work place.  Thank you Jesus!  The gospel is really really good news.  Believe it.

Testimonies – Laura

Here are some testimonies from Laura when she was at Pittsburgh:

We prayed for my neighbor Susan who was dealing with arthritic pain and when she would stretch her arms out she would shake really bad….it all left and she was crying…she got rocked.

Prayed for her mother who was showing the first signs of losing her memory, and Susan said before we prayed her eyes looked void, and after she had life again, and continued to cry. The old woman said she needed that and was thankful for prayer. Waiting for follow-up.

Ryan grew my sister-in-laws leg out and all the grinding in her knees left–she couldn’t remember the last time she sat down without having them grind.

Prayed for my mom…she was dealing with arthritic pain as well…prayed a couple of times and it was partially gone, and I grabbed her thumbs (that’s where she was having the pain) and I yelled “stop being stubborn, be healed!” and I had her check it and all the pain left. BOOM.

A few from San Diego:

I prayed for a woman and her husband…the woman had just had cancer taken out and her colon was not attached (somehow..) and she just wanted the pain to go and for her colon to be mended. So I commanded pain to go and for her colon to be mended and she started to tear up, she said she could feel the pain leaving her body as she sat there.

Ryan grew the husband’s leg out and then he told me he had bruised his rib and was in a good deal of pain. I hit it several times, it got better each time, until he looked up at me and said, “all the pain is gone.” He continued moving around even as he walked away, lifting his arm up and down and touching his rib, seeming surprised or something, haha.

Prayed for a girl who had scoliosis…I grew her leg out and she said she felt so much more aligned, and we checked her back..it looked a little better, so I commanded her spine to come into alignment and she bent down and touched her toes and she she felt really good, no pain.

Then I said, “want to check your arms, your shoulders look a little off,” so Ryan grew her arm out and she freaked out, and she said she felt so great. She went from being really serious in the beginning to freaking out and laughing like crazy, it was so fun! (Chloe tagged a photo of Ryan and I laughing as she was freaking out)

Prayed for a homeless guy someone brought to me…the first thing he said was that someone stole his seizure medication, but that he hasn’t had any seizures for a week…and I was like, “dude, that’s because Jesus healed you!” and so I prayed for his brain and told it to continue to function properly.

Then he said he was dealing with really bad arthritic pain all in his knees and joints…prayed for him (I think 2 times) and I had him move around and he told me it was all gone! Then I prayed for open doors,  housing, finances and the inheritance that is due him, etc. etc. We talked for a good bit, his whole countenance changed. It was great.

Our Community – Sue

If you haven’t already realized, I am very against the idea of “specially-called” or “specially appointed” ministers who are “more qualified” than others.

…but our adequacy is from God, who also made us adequate as servants of a new covenant…    2 Corinthians 3:5-6

I see a lot of awesome miracles all the time, and I’m one of few in our group that consistently blogs testimonies. The problem is, it doesn’t portray an accurate picture of what we are experiencing as a community.

As of now, I know about 20 people in the San Jose area who are consistently healing the sick, casting out demons, and preaching the Kingdom everywhere. We have people who are still in school (high school, college), who have full-time jobs, and people of all ages (13-50+).

So, for the next few days, I’m going to be posting a bunch of awesome testimonies from our friends.

Here are 2 testimonies from Sue:

About a week ago, one of my friends (J.T.) came into work and she was complaining about her hand hurting her a lot, so I asked her what happened and she said she had fallen on her hand and twisted it and gotten a slight sprain. It was noticeably swollen and a bit bruised, so I asked her if I could pray for it, and promised her that the pain would leave if I did.

She looked skeptical, didn’t really believe me, so I just took her hand and told the pain to go. It did, and she freaked out a bit. She doesn’t really like God, simply because of past experiences with churches and church people.

I talked to her for a bit, before she got off of work. She told me she didn’t really want to hear anything more about it and then left.

The next day she came in to work again and asked me if I’d like to go to lunch and talk, and if she could bring a friend with her, because she wanted to know more about what happened.
I asked her a few days ago about it again, and she said the pain never came back and the swelling had left completely by the day after I prayed for it.

Another one from this past Saturday morning at the mall:
I was in the mall and saw an older lady (Cynthia) who was slightly hunched over, walking with a cane. I talked to her for quite a while, just getting to know her a bit, turns out she had really bad arthritis and a lot of pain in her back, as well has hands, and pretty much every where.
I prayed for her once, and she said the pain in her hands left, but she still couldn’t straighten up and still had pain in her back. I prayed for her back a few times before she said the pain was completely gone, and she still wasn’t able to straighten up all the way, although it had gotten a little bit better.
I prayed for it one more time before she kept on walking. Then I ran into one of the stores in the mall to pick something up, was in there for about 5 or 10 minutes, and then was on my way out when I saw her sitting on a bench on the side of the mall so I ran over to say goodbye and just give her a hug. Turns out she could stand almost completely straight by then, and had absolutely no pain.

How to have “Great” Faith (Faith of God)

The Roman Centurion

The centurion answered and said, “Lord, I am not worthy that You should come under my roof. But only speak a word, and my servant will be healed.

For I also am a man under authority, having soldiers under me. And I say to this one, ‘Go,’ and he goes; and to another, ‘Come,’ and he comes; and to my servant, ‘Do this,’ and he does it.”
When Jesus heard it, He marveled, and said to those who followed, “Assuredly, I say to you, I have not found such great faith, not even in Israel!” – Matthew 8:8-10

!!!!!

Jesus equated understanding the principle of authority, to having “great faith.”

!!!!!

The Roman centurion understood his authority, so let me show you the authority that every believer has.

“And when He had called His twelve disciples to Him, He gave them power over unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal all kinds of sickness and all kinds of disease.” - Matthew 10:1

What’s the keyword? All.

“Then He called His twelve disciples together and gave them power and authority over all demons, and to cure diseases.” – Luke 9:1

What’s the keyword? All.

“Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you. – Luke 10:19

What’s the keyword? All. This is all summed up in Matthew 28:18 where Jesus said, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth.”

One may ask, “Oh, well if Jesus has all authority, how can I have any?”

That’s easy, because you’re hidden in Christ (Colossians 3:3), you’re one spirit with him (1 Cor 6:17), Christ lives through you (Gal 2:20), we have received His fullness (John 1:16), we are the fullness of Him (Eph 1:23) , and as He is, so are we in this world (1 John 4:17). If Jesus has ALL authority, then the devil has NONE. The enemy is defeated! (Rom 6:9, Rom 8:2, Heb 2:14, Eph 1:21-23, Col 1:13-14, Col 2:15, 2 Tim 1:10)

If you can understand the “all authority” that you have in Christ, and that the kingdom of darkness is under your authority, it will be very easy to win against the enemy.

***It is important for me to note that understanding authority directly correlates with understanding position. If you understand that you are seated and positioned “above” (Eph 1:20-23) a defeated enemy, you will naturally understand your authority over the enemy.

The last thing to understand is how someone in authority acts. How does a boss relate to an employee? A teacher to a student? A policeman to a thief? They are all similar. There is never a question who obeys who. The employee always has to do what the boss says, likewise the student to the teacher and the thief to the policeman.

Anything in the kingdom of darkness MUST obey sons of Light.

Their word is always commanding and final.

  • Bosses: “Get to work” “You’re fired” “Do this, now!”
  • Teachers: “Do your work” “Be quiet” “Sit down”
  • Policemen: “Freeze” “Hands up” “You’re under arrest”

Jesus: “Come out” “Pick up your mat and walk” “Be cleansed” “Be opened”

They don’t make phonecalls because they know the manual.

  • Bosses don’t call the CEO of the company to ask how to deal with employees.
  • Teachers don’t call the principal of the school to ask how to deal with students.
  • Policemen don’t call the headquarters of the force to ask how to deal with a law-breaker.

Jesus didn’t ask God whether it was His will to heal the sick, or cast out a demon. He understood the “manual” and didn’t need to call the Holy Spirit to see if it was the right thing to do. If you understand His Word, you will understand His heart. Jesus also didn’t ask God to heal the sick or cast out demons. He just did it.

They do not waver in their authority.

  • Even when an employee tries to usurp the boss’ instruction, the boss does not back down or allow their authority to be questioned.
  • Teachers do not allow students to question their authority, or else their classroom would be in chaos.
  • If policemen allowed a thieves to question/challenge/ their authority, they would not be doing their job. Their job is to subdue those who trespass the law of the land or those who are a threat to social life.

Conclusion: When you believe the way Jesus believed, you will see what he saw. You HAVE ALL authority in Christ. Act like it. When you understand your authority and start walking in it, you will see the sick healed and demons cast out in no time. It has more to do with understanding authority than some ethereal “gift of faith” or trying to obtain more faith. When you understand the principle of authority, it will empower you to not waver in faith. This is the faith that moves mountains.

“For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be removed and be cast into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says.” – Mark 11:23

People in authority understand “that those things [they say] will be done.” People in authority have the same faith that moves mountains. Obviously, we are using this faith to set people free (Luke 4:18). If you don’t think I did an adequate job in describing how people in authority act, I’d encourage you to spend 5 minutes thinking about it yourself (about people who are in authority). I guarantee it will help you understand better how to heal the sick and cast out demons.
