My Testimony
In 1994,
while visiting a friend...I had a life-changing experience that I
will never forget. I had been a born again Christian for 18 years at
the time.
I was watching television, when I "fell asleep" in the chair. As I sat there, I seemed as though I was asleep, and was unable to move...but I could hear everything around me.
I listened as I heard others in the house go to bed for the night. I felt cold...and still unable to move. My breathing became uneven, and my heart was beating irregular. I prayed, "God help me please, no one knows that I am having a problem." As I sat there...I heard "someone" open the front door of the house. This person walked with steady and deliberate steps towards my chair, walked to the other side of it, and stood beside me.
I wondered who it was...I couldn't open my eyes to see. Then I heard the person walk away from me, and open a door. The person said "Papa, Papa!" It was the sweetest voice I have ever heard...that of a young boy. Then I heard the other voice, which was deeper and older. They conversed in a language that I had never heard before...and slowly the door closed, and I could not hear them anymore.
At that time my girlfriend woke up, came over to my chair, and tried to wake me. I could not open my eyes or move. She called the paramedics. When they arrived, I was hooked up to a heart monitor. I listened as I heard them ask my girlfriend questions about me, and look through my purse.
They put an oxygen mask on me, and at that moment I felt myself slipping away. I knew I was dying. I prayed inside, "God, please help me, I don't want to die yet!" I felt myself slipping further and further away...until the moment when I knew I had died. At that moment I heard the heart monitor "flat line." The paramedic cried out "Her heart has stopped!" He immediately did CPR on me, pounding my chest. I could feel the pain from it, but it started my heart beating again. I woke up as they rushed me to the ambulance. I refused to go to the hospital, as I was afraid of hospitals. He said "I have to advise you that if you don't go with us, you may die tonight!" But I signed the release, and they left.
We went to bed about an hour later...I was exhausted. As I lay there...I sensed cold air hitting me in the face. It was from a vent fan in the room. I turned to lie on my other side, and I started having trouble breathing again. I was too exhausted to move. At that moment I sensed someone else breathing for me. I felt air going in through my nose, I was breathing as though I were on a respirator. I fell asleep.I awoke the next morning still lying in the same position, on my side. I still had my clothes on from the night before. In the middle of my chest, in a perfect circle, was anointing oil. I turned and saw the vial of anointing oil I had carried in my purse. It was sitting on a table, out of my reach. My chest was bruised from the paramedic doing CPR.
After obtaining a medical
release, I returned to work in a week, and have never had a recurrence
since. This happened in 1994.
I believe that I had a severe allergic reaction to something I had eaten, and
the Lord saved my life that night, by interceding to the Father and
breathing the breath of life into me.
I also believe that it was an Angel of the Lord that anointed me with the
oil.
The
Lord can rescue you too from any situation...

O
Lord, so many are against me. So many seek to harm me. I have
many enemies. So many say that God will never help me. But
Lord, You are my shield, my glory, and my only hope. You alone can
lift my head, now bowed in shame. I cried out to the Lord, and He
heard me from His Temple in Jerusalem.
Then I lay down and slept in
peace and woke up safely, for the Lord was watching over me.
And
now, although ten thousand enemies surround me on every side, I am not
afraid.
I will cry to Him, "Arise, O Lord! Save me, O my
God!"
And He will slap them in the face, insulting them, and
breaking off their teeth.
For salvation comes from God.
What joys He gives to all His people.
Psalms 3:1-8
