June 23, 2004 - Colleen Cole-Bowron
I had broken a bone in my foot and walked around on it for over 2 months not
knowing it was broken. I started having pain and I went to a Foot & Ankle
doctor. This started a 2 year process of trying to get me free from pain.
We tried wraps, braces casts, shots, pills, physical therapy,orthotics for
my shoes, and special shoes. Nothing helped. My doctor was at the end of
his rope and said that there was not much more he could do for me. He could
do surgery but there was only a 30% chance it would work to keep me pain
free. My physical activity was really limited and I gained weight which
made it worse. I could barely go up and down stairs because I had very
little flexability.
In February of 2004 my husband and I attended a seminar on healing given by
Derk and Priscilla at our church, Mountain Vineyard Christian Fellowship.
It was a 2 day seminar and on the first night as Derk talked about healing
he said that sometimes you did not even have to come up for prayer that
just being in the presence of the Holy Spirit could heal you. The following
morning we went to day 2 of the seminar, my foot was aching and I was in
pain. Derk started teaching and all of a sudden my foot started getting
very warm and started to tingle. I started to move it around and found that
I could flex it. A few minutes later Derk said it was break time and I got
up and I could flex my foot and walk with no pain for the first time in over
2 years. Praise God ! I had been healed! Since that time I have been free
from pain, my limp is gone and so is the swelling and I am able to be
physically active again. I encourage anyone who has the chance to attend,
one of Derk & Priscilla's Healing Seminars. It has changed my life and I am
looking forward to attending another one of their services this summer. God
is good!
