Dramatic Testimony
of an Inner Healing
om - this story is one of the most powerful
stories on God's power coming into a situation to help
someone out I have to-date. As God is my witness,
everything that you will read in this account happened
just as described. Shannon has given me permission to
release this story on our website if it will help others
in this area of their walk with the Lord. The email below
was sent to Shannon's sister Leeta recounting exactly what
happened that day right in the middle of our office.
Leetta,
I'm going to go ahead and release this
story to you at this time. As God is my witness, everything
that you will read in this story happened exactly as I will
describe.
I have your sister's Shannon permission to release this
story. Feel free to talk to her about it after you read it. She
will confirm everything you'll read about here.
1. This happened in 8/96 at our office right in
the middle of broad daylight. I had just moved into a different
office when all of a sudden your sister Shannon came in white
as a ghost.
I asked her what was wrong. She said that she just received
news that her ex-husband had just been let go from his job as a
police officer. As she came in, I was standing directly behind
my desk and she was standing a little to my left.
She then started to panic, as she did not know what she was
going to do next. She said without his monthly child support,
that she wouldn't be able to make ends meet and that she could
not live off of her basic salary. She said she was simply going
to have to file bankruptcy and sell their house. She was
literally to the point of tears.
And here is where the first part of the miracle starts to
occur. Right after she says all of the above, I get a vision of
Jesus' right hand off to my right side at a 45-degree angle -
approximately 3 feet from my right side. His hand is in a palms
up position. The color of his skin was dark brown, even the
palm. His hand was about 2-3 feet in length and about 1-2 feet
in width. It was huge.
I actually only gazed at it for about 2-3 seconds because
all of my attention was focused on your sister. I then turned
back to Shannon and had an extremely strong flow come up from
the Holy Spirit as to what to say to her. I basically said
something to the effect:
"Shannon, if you will turn your life over to God, He will
make sure that you do not go under. All you have to do is
step into the palm of His hand and He will
pull you out of this financial crisis. Have you turned your
life over to Him?"
At this point she said, "No, I have not." I said "Why not?"
And she said, "I don't know, I just can't seem to be able to do
it." At this point, she then proceeds to run out of my office
shaking like a leaf.
I then tapped into the Holy Spirit and asked why Him she
could not turn her life over to God, especially with this
financial crisis now hitting her right in the face. These words
then came up extremely strong on me. The words were:
"She is holding a grudge against Me. Go in there
and find out what it is."
I then decided to wait about 5 minutes before going in to
give her a chance to calm down. After 5 minutes, I then went
into her office and here is what happened next.
2. As I walked into her office, she was sitting
down typing at her desk. She was a bit more calm at this point.
I then went up to the right side of her body and pointed upward
with my finger and said to her "Are you holding a grudge
against God about something?"
And here is where the second part of the miracle occurred.
Right after I said this, I once more see Jesus' right hand
appear, but this time it was much smaller. It was about the
size of my hand. It appeared right in front of her collarbone.
It hovered for maybe 1 or 2 seconds and it was also in the
palms up position.
His right hand then went right through her collarbone area
and went straight down into the bottom portion of her stomach.
I then saw His hand grab something that was black and tarry
looking. He grabbed all of it in the palm of His right hand and
then started to bring it up through her stomach, up her chest
and literally right out through her mouth.
After I saw all of this happening right in front of my eyes,
here is what happened to your sister. When His right hand
initially went through her collarbone, her upper body
immediately jerked back, her head snapped back and she started
crying. I could tell she had no control over her body at this
point.
When His hand grabbed the black and tarry substance from the
lower part of her stomach and started to bring it up into her
chest, she then starts telling me what her grudge against God
was. Here is what she said:
"Yeah, my mom died 12 years ago and I got mad at God
for taking her home so soon. I guess I've been holding a
grudge against God all these years for it."
At this point, this black substance gets literally spewed
right out of her mouth and I see it land in front of the
typewriter. I then realize what God just did. I then tell God,
right there on the spot, now that we know what the block is, I
can easily explain that one for her and get it taken care
of.
I then received a very strong word from God at this point
and He said, "No, leave now. She is no position to talk about
it now. She is too upset." Since I was so pumped and excited
about what had just happened, I literally ignored His advice. I
then started to explain to her why her mom had to go home at
this time. Before I could even get two words out of my mouth,
her phone rang and it was for her. I knew at that point that I
was to leave and come back the next day.
I then went back to her office about an hour later to see
how she was doing and her face looked as if it had been hit by
a truck. I knew then that she had truly been hit by the power
of God. I then took her out to lunch the next day and gave her
the basic explanation as to why God would allow her mom to be
taken home at the time that He did. She said she basically
already knew all of that, but that she just couldn't help
herself from holding a grudge against God all of these years
for it.
3. And here's the part where I received
confirmation that what I had witnessed was a truly a miracle.
When I told her about seeing His right hand twice, with the
second time actually going inside of her to pull out her grudge
against Him, here is what she said:
Her eyes got real big and she said: "That's what
that was! Mike, when you came in and asked me if I was
holding a grudge against God, my first thought was, how
could you possibly know that? That was something I have
never told anyone else in my entire life. That was a
personal thing between me and God.
I decided I wasn't even going to tell you one
thing about it. However, when you came up to the side of my
desk, something took control of my insides and started
making me tell you what my grudge was. I actually tried
fighting against it, but I had no control over my body.
Something was forcing it up and I could not stop myself
from telling you what it was."
I then asked her how she now felt. Here is the final piece
to this story that confirmed for me that I had truly witnessed
an inner healing from the Lord. She said:
"Ever since I was forced to release that story
to you, I have felt much lighter on the inside since then.
It was as if something was taken out of me. I no longer
have the rage and anger that I had against God on this
issue."
When she said that all of the rage and anger was gone, I
knew then that was what God had taken out of her when I saw His
hand grab something that was black and tarry looking.
I felt that later on He explained to me what had happened.
He said that black and tarry substance was real. It was a
spiritual substance that had grown on the inside of her over
those 12 years that she was holding a grudge against Him.
Just like a human body can develop cancerous tumors, the
soul and spirit of a human can develop spiritual cancerous type
growths that can block and prevent you from getting close to
God or other people for that matter. He says that these have to
be spiritually removed, much in the same way that doctors will
surgically remove a cancerous tumor. He said it was by the
power of the Holy Spirit that this was accomplished.
And the beautiful part about this was how quickly it was
done. Shannon didn't have to go through months or years of
psychoanalysis to get this done. And most of the time, doctors
cannot get at the root of a spiritual substance to
remove it like God did. Only the power of God can get at
something so deep and remove it as quickly as He did.
I would say that once His hand entered inside of her, it
only took 2-3 seconds at the most to pull that grudge out. To
me, that was literally miraculous! I really feel to this day
that I had truly witnessed a miraculous inner healing by the
Lord with this girl.
Shannon did not see His hand like I did. She only felt
something inside of her pulling the grudge out. I felt like God
gave me the two visions of His right hand in operation to
literally show me what was going on behind and inside the
spiritual realm.
I know the above story is just about almost unbelievable.
But as God as my witness, this is exactly what I saw, and I
feel Shannon's comments afterwards confirmed not only what I
saw, but that she had truly experienced an inner healing from
the Lord.
