My elder sister, a believer who lives in Melbourne, fell in her kitchen, badly bruising her brain. Her twelve-year-old daughter found her bleeding from her nose, mouth, and ears and she was rushed to the intensive care unit (ICU) of a public hospital.

An emergency surgery was done to remove the excess blood in her brain. We were informed by the doctors that she had to be heavily sedated until her condition stabilized. I was devastated by the news. However, I knew that I could declare healing over my sister through the Holy Communion even though I live many miles apart from her in Malaysia.

I began partaking of the Holy Communion on behalf of my sister three times a day. Four days passed but she showed no signs of improvement and her brain pressure remained high. By the fifth day, the doctors decided to keep her under an induced coma. Her brain was already swollen by then and no one was allowed to touch her.

Though discouraged, I continued to partake of the Holy Communion. I would listen to Pastor Joseph Prince’s sermon CDs to keep me focused on the finished work of Christ. In particular, the CD titled, Overflowing Life And Health—Keys From The Story Of Elisha, encouraged me as my elder sister lay in the ICU.

In that sermon, Pastor Prince shared that some of us need to be in a state of deep sleep to allow the Lord to nurse us—like what He did for Elisha. That was when I heard my Abba saying, “Your sister is in a state of deep sleep and you are partaking of bread and water for her. That’s food that will sustain her.” I was encouraged.

However, I was dealt with more bad news from the doctors. I was told my sister wasn’t responding because she had bruised her brain seriously. They kept her on life support and performed a tracheotomy where they inserted a tube into her throat to help her breathe. The doctors said that even if she regained consciousness, she would be in a vegetative state and there was nothing they could do.

However, I believed we have a big Abba who is able to defy all odds. On the tenth day, my sister responded by nodding slightly. However, on the fifteenth day, MRI scans showed signs of bleeding in her brain and the doctors operated on her for the second time. At that point of time, I was deeply discouraged but I heard the Lord’s encouraging words, “It is well.” I continued to partake of the Holy Communion every now and then in the wee hours of the morning and declared His restoration over my sister.

Pictures from her second surgery were sent to me via my mobile phone. I was devastated that I couldn’t be by her side but I continued partaking of the Holy Communion and this time, something arose within me.

I enlarged her picture on the screen of my mobile phone. I sprinkled the breadcrumbs on the picture where her lips were and I declared health and wholeness for her through the Lord’s broken body. I also rubbed water, a picture of His shed blood, over the picture of her lips. Ever since that day, I partook of the Holy Communion using my sister’s picture. No one knew about this except for my husband.

For twenty days, my sister remained unconscious. Then, on the twenty-first day she woke up. Praise Jesus! She continued to open her eyes the following days and her condition gradually improved. After thirty days in the ICU, she was transferred to a general ward and received rehabilitation and other tests to further detect any abnormalities. By then, she was perfectly fine. She could talk, laugh, and even minister to the nurses and doctors who attended to her. Her memory was also much better than before.

The doctors were baffled by this miracle. What they don’t know is that when our Abba restores, He restores 120 percent. Truly, we saw His handiwork all over my sister’s healing. She was later discharged and given a clean bill of health.

Pastor Prince, your daily devotionals and grace capsule were the channels of hope for us as a family during the difficult season. Your teaching on the Holy Communion gave us hope when all else seemed lost. Thank You, Abba, for leading Joseph Prince to teach about the Lord’s Supper.

My brother, i have to tell him off!!! What makes me laugh is dat these Pharisees here masquerading as Christians cannot keep a Single law if they encounter the Law of Moses in its entire form.... Forming Holiness when in actual fact, they are the worst hypocrites!!! They are the problem we have in Christianity... Making the Christian life too hard for unbelievers to accept CHRIST because of their stu.pid man-made rules that they themselves can never keep!!!
CHRIST has died on the Cross and said IT IS FINISHED thereby making Salvation easy for mankind but yet, they want to merit it with their yeye self righteousness which is a filthy rag before God..... Since they negate the finished work of CHRIST on the Cross, they will continue to live a defeated life cos the blessings of the New Covenant cant manifest in their lives . The Devil is just playing with their destiny..... I can see how you were trying to explain to them in the other thread yet they stuck to their guns!!! My brother you get time sef, ignore them!!! I don't even notice them on this section sef.... My own is just to post grace articles so that people will know the Truth .... I am Happy that the Grace Revolution have taken over the world..... God has raised Great men of God that preaches Grace radically and without fear !!! Just like Apostle Paul did in the Bible !!! My bro, please just ignore the Pharisees here, their opinion is useless and it doesn't matter at all!!!!

Pastor Prince, your sermons have changed my life. As a high school student, I’m faced with hundreds of temptations each day. Early on in middle school, I was introduced to pornography and was instantly hooked. I thought it was no big deal until it gradually ruined my life.

I grew up in the church and thought that God was mad at me. Every time I fell into this sin, I would feel extreme guilt. Whenever something bad happened to me, I thought it was God’s punishment. My mom introduced me to your sermons but I couldn’t really understand much at first, so I stopped watching for a while. About a year later, I fell into deep depression and didn’t know what to do. I remembered your sermons and I looked one up on YouTube. That sermon changed my life completely.

It showed me that Christ took all of my sins and all of my judgment on the cross. The condemnation left me because I realized that God saw me as perfect through Jesus’ work, and He remembered my sins no more. Now I don’t have to worry about pornography because Jesus has taken my urge for it away. All the guilt and condemnation are gone and God is doing great things in my life.

Thank you so much, Pastor Prince. I watch your sermons almost every day and I’m currently reading your book, The Power of Right Believing . God is truly doing amazing things through you!

Last time I checked, Nairaland was a "faceless public forum". I want to believe you know what means. You do not own any section of Nairaland, neither do you own this thread.
I have every right to comment on any length and breadth of NL just as every other person. And not even your sorry a$$ can stop me. As long as you keep perverting and twisting the gospel of Christ that is centered on Love, grace, righteousness and holiness, then expect a response from me.
And if you cannot commune like an intellectual fellow without throwing tantrums like a toddler then my condolences goes out to you Sire.

Truly awesome!
I bless God for Andrew Wommack. His messages actually started me on this journey of experiencing the grace of God. When you really understand this message you end up living a life full of thanks to the One who has shown you so much love and you "accidentally" live a "holier" life than when you have to keep observing rules and laws!

Amberon:
you are right. it is this grace perverted gospel that sends millions of Christians of hell. "Once saved, always saved" bullcrap. Yes, Jesus Christ has paid the price for our sins but if we there's no forgiveness without confession. 1 John 1: 8 If we say that we have no sin , we deceive ourselves , and the truth is not in us.
9 If we confess our sins , He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
10 If we say that we have not sinned , we make Him a liar , and His word is not in us.
May God save us from false preachers.

Charisplus:
We can never earn or work for our salvation! Salvation is already completed with the death of Jesus on the Cross! It is a done deal! Nothing you do or don't do can add to it! Trusting in your efforts and works for salvation is denying that Jesus' death was enough!

True.... But the best thing is to do away with sin.... You cannot continue to abound in sin

For a couple of years, I was jobless, experiencing financial hardship, and having marital problems. I believed all of this was happening because God was punishing me.

I have been a Christian for more than fourteen years. I was also a Sunday school teacher and youth leader in my church. But the message I heard was that God takes people through bad times to teach them lessons. When times got hard, I began to accept the message that God puts people through hardships because they have done wrong or weren’t doing enough good.

I began to live a legalistic Christian life and I pushed those beliefs onto my wife. When my marriage suffered, I turned to pornography for a sense of pleasure that I wasn’t getting in my marriage.

One day, I was at home feeling low and thinking what I could do to please God. That day, I stumbled upon Pastor Joseph Prince’s broadcast and heard his sermon.
The first message I heard was of how God loves me and that I should rest in the finished work of Christ. When I learned that I am the righteousness of God in Christ, it felt as though the weight and heaviness on me lifted. Tears began to fall from my eyes. Never in my life have I heard that I am as righteous as God because Christ paid for my righteousness.

As I continued to hear the messages, I developed a love for the Word and seeing Christ in the Word. I declared every day that I am the righteousness of God in Christ even when I was tempted to look at pornography. Soon the addiction to pornography effortlessly left. Now I feel empowered through Christ and not by my own works. God has also blessed me with a job far better than the others I have had. My wife and I are happy again in our marriage as the Holy Spirit guides and helps us love one another.

Thank you, Pastor Prince. I truly enjoy the message on the grace of God through our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. I watch your broadcast on television every day and I have over a hundred recordings of your messages on my DVR.

For someone who grew up in church as a pastor’s kid, I had been running from the call of God. But the gospel of Christ has now been awoken in me, and I now feel compelled to preach the gospel—the gospel that the apostle Paul preached about our Lord Jesus Christ. I am partnering with my father who is a pastor. I have convinced him that people need to hear the love of God and we are establishing a church with a vision for people to see Jesus.
