GOD'S HEALING POWER
Jesus touched their eyes. Immediately they regained their sight and followed Him.
Matthew 20: verse 34
I have been blessed with a miracle of healing from God! The summer after 4th Grade I began to suffer from migraine headaches with visual aura, severe pain and vomiting. Many happy times were eliminated by these headaches. At age 18 they were diagnosed, but prescription medications did nothing to help.
At age 35, I was asked to teach a lesson for my Adult Sunday School Class. I prayed about what one special lesson God would have me teach. Trusting God’s guidance, I settled on the topic of “God’s Grace, His Unmerited Love.” After much research, I wrote the lesson, and I was very excited to present it.
Sunday Morning, I awoke and was shocked to see that much dreaded visual aura. I proceeded to prepare for church but could not see well enough to do so. I closed my eyes in desperation and fervently prayed, “Lord, if you want me to teach this lesson, You will have to clear my vision and keep me from vomiting, and I KNOW you can do that!” As I opened my eyes, all I saw were three spots, which immediately faded away; no aura, headache or vomiting! In awe and gratitude, I went to church and presented the lesson. After class, a young lawyer hugged me and said, “You have NO idea how much I needed “to hear that message!”
At age 81, I have never had another migraine headache. I only asked God to spare me long enough to teach the lesson, and He blessed me with more than I asked.
Thank you, Lord!!
