BRAD: Vicki says she wanted to share her testimony to encourage others in need of a miracle from God.

LR: We do have to have faith and believe in God. And right now we have faith in God that heals. Anybody that is listening to this program that has cancer, in the name of Jesus, just like Vicki got her diagnosis turned around, in Jesus’ name we speak to outlaw cells. And we command those outlaw cells to wither and die and healthy cells to take over your body, for a healing and a cure, in Jesus’ name.
And I believe God for that. I believe God for healing. I am a miracle myself. And people think, “You don’t . . .” Oh, yeah, I do. I can tell you stories that—you know how they say “will make your head spin.” Well, I don’t want your head to spin, but I’ll tell you what, my father died of cancer when I was 12 years old. My mom had an evil diagnosis shortly thereafter and several that followed it.
And then it turned around at 18, I started getting diagnosis—at 18! And then by 23 and 24, and then I married Richard and then I had a tumor the size of a grapefruit. And then and then and then. I’ve had a tumor on my breast. I’ve had an ovarian tumor. I was in the hospital, in surgery for a hysterectomy, and God healed me in the middle of that surgery in front of all the surgeons.
I am living proof that God still heals today. Well, how do we know that? We know that by the word of people’s testimony. And just like Vicki gave her testimony, if you have a testimony and you want to give it and share it with us, please call the Abundant Life Prayer Group, 918-495-7777. Have our Abundant Life prayer partners pray for you, but also give us your testimony because we’d love to share it with other people.
And one thing I want to share with you—and I’ve got lots of requests for it. I’m trying to organize this. I’ve got calls on my calls on my calls. But I want to do this before I forget. I believe in sowing seed. When I couldn’t have children, the hardest thing I ever faced was not being able to have children, two miscarriages, like I said, in surgery for a hysterectomy, many other surgeries that I don’t even want to go into. And then I had a son that lived 36 hours and died.
I’m telling you, I understand what it’s like. And in the middle of all that, the Lord spoke to me and said, “Give baby showers.” And I’m like, “That’s ridiculous!” And the Lord said, “No, you need to sow in famine to reap a hundredfold, to reap in joy.”
And I thought, Okay, what’s the hardest thing I could possibly sow? That baby shower. I would call people I knew that were having babies, and I would give baby showers and baby gifts. In the meantime, I’d be having miscarriages, and in the meantime I’d be having dead babies and funeral services. And yet I believed God that if I sowed in the very field I needed to reap in, God would honor me.
Now once I did that and sowed my seed—and sometimes I can tell you the honest truth—I have an upstairs in my house. And I’d have the party downstairs and little baby flowers and everything, and I’m having miscarriages. And I would run upstairs and I would throw up all over the bathroom, wipe off my face, come back downstairs and smile and say, “Oh now, aren’t we having fun? Isn’t this exciting?”
We prayed for those little babies, and in my heart I was absolutely breaking. But God told me that I had to give out of my need. I had to give out of the very field that I wanted to reap from. And as I did that, you all know my story—Jordan, Olivia, and Chloe later—three amazing, amazing daughters later. God multiplied my seed into a harvest.
I believe I need to sow seed this week, and I want to give you this. Now they’re helping me with the telephone number because I can’t see it over there—866—that’s a toll-free number—866 means it’s a free call—866-870-6932, 866-870-6932. Or you can go to makeyourdaycount.com and go on-line.
