Police help

“The police force took quite an interest in bringing the afflicted in the ambulance and carrying them in on a stretchers. One man was perfectly helpless with inflammatory rheumatism. He could not move his fingers and was in great pain with fever. He was saved and healed and walked upon the platform, then walked out and down to the police station. When the officers came for him, he was gone. They laugh and took the cot and went out. Infidels and all kinds of sinners who had never before believed in God were convinced of the reality of the religion of Jesus and were converted. A doctor, one of the finest men in the city, when he saw so many of his patients healed, was converted and became an earnest worker.

Men and women of all kinds, both businessmen and others, came for healing and received the double cure. The superintendent of the Business Colleges of the Tri-Cities brought his father from a distance, who had to use an ear trumpet. He went away with his son with his hearing restored. Scores of Catholics were converted and healed. One nun who had been lame and afflicted with heart disease for fifteen years, but could get no help anywhere, was saved and perfectly cured. She came back and gave glory to God.

Some Jews, one the wife of a rabbi, came for healing. When she first came, she asked if she could not be healed without Jesus. I told her no, she could not. She said she did not want anything to do with Jesus. She was badly afflicted and had suffered much for many years. I talked some with her, and then she went away; but she came back in a few days, was saved and healed, and confessed Christ in public, praising Him for His wonderful works. Many Swedish and German people and other nationalities came. We could not understand each other, but they were healed and converted.”

Midwest Healings And Salvations

Hello everyone.  Praise the Lord!

MIDWEST HEALINGS AND SALVATIONS - MARIA WOODWORTH-ETTER- “SIGNS AND WONDERS” BOOK CHAPTER 27, Page 127. 1903, Moline, Iowa.

“We commenced our work in Warr Hall. The first four weeks there thirteen hundred bowed at the altar; I prayed for each with laying on hands, and nearly all were converted or reclaimed; and nearly all were healed of from one to a dozen diseases. The power was present just as it was in the days of Christ and the apostles-we do not read of any place where the work was greater – sixty at the altar for healing, at once, in the afternoon meeting. Nearly everyone got up rejoicing, showing by their testimonies that they were perfectly well. Many people in the gallery shouted or waved their hands; sometimes nearly the whole house was weeping at the wonderful miracles that were done before them all. The scenes were wonderful.

Every meeting they could hardly wait until I gave them the opportunity to come to the altar; then there would be a rush. They brought them in chairs, on cots, and on pillows; the blind, lame, deaf, dumb, and the paralytic; those dying with consumption, tumors, cancer, blood poisoning, catarrh of the stomach and lungs, or all through the blood; broken bones and everything else-all chronic diseases that could not be cured by any earthly power – they laid them at the feet of Jesus. As at Peter’s great revival, they tried to get near enough for his shadow to fall on them, so it was here-everyone tried to get the nearest me, like those at the pool of Bethesda, to get into the water first.

 One after another they were healed; sometimes in an hour everyone would be up rejoicing. The people looking on saw large tumors and goiters go and cancers disappear; children got up and walked who never walked before. They saw the deaf hear, the dumb speak, those that had never heard or spoken before. They wondered and were amazed, and they gave glory for His great power and love for suffering humanity.”

Lung Cancer Healed!

Hello everyone.  Praise the Lord!

Here is an article from an unknown author that I wanted to share.

Text: Isaiah 53:5; James 5:16

 In 1953 in Grimes, Iowa, Violet Cross was getting sicker by the day! Finally her eldest son Frank insisted she go to the doctor. Eventually they ended up at the large teaching hospital in Iowa City. The diagnosis was devastating. Though Violet had never smoked she was dying of lung cancer. One lung was already gone the other was rapidly being devoured by the malignancy. The doctors sent her home offering no real hope, six months of pain would ultimately lead to her death.

That Sunday violet went down to kneel at the altar at the tiny church pastored by her son-in-law, Clarence Lautt. There in Grimes Gospel Center she begged God for one thing. Her two youngest daughters, Kay and Linda were still in high school. "Please God," she prayed, "Let me see my girls finish high school."

Her husband Eddie bought her the engagement ring that he hadn’t had the money to buy 30 years earlier, expecting that to be one of his final acts of love toward her. But Violet started feeling better. Kay graduated from high school, and her mom was back on the farm doing chores again. Linda graduated from high-school. Both girls married. Grandchildren were born. In fact, 18 grandchildren were there to help celebrate Violet and Eddie’s 50th wedding anniversary.

In 1976 Violet came to live at my house after my grandfather Eddie passed away. When I was 12 years old, 38 years after the doctors had given her 6 months to live, Grandma Cross’s two healthy lungs breathed their last.

Sometimes God performs miracles simply because he loves us and he has compassion on His children.
