I want to share this testimony for those who are just starting out in praying for the sick and not necessary seeing the results that they would like to see...



For a job i do lawn mowing and Gardening and about a year ago i picked up a new customer who was getting on in age he was around the late 80's, he had major back pain that was very much crippling him. I offered to pray for his back then but to my disappointment there was no change in fact it was a little embarrassing, but i carried on seeking God and pursuing a ministry after Jesus' ministry, believing that it was only a hiccup in my path. I stopped working for the customer about 8 months ago as he got family to help instead thinking i would never hear from him again,



Four weeks ago he called me up and asked me to mow his lawns again, i popped around and mowed his lawns and noticed that he was still having back problems so i offered to pray for him again and he politely said yes so i did, it was a little hard this time praying for him as it was in front of his neighbors, but i did it non the less. So i ministered and got him to check his back out, but sadly there was no change that i could see, i said i would be back in a couple weeks to mow the lawn and if there is still pain i would love to pray again,



i popped around just last week and apparently the very next day after i ministered all the pain had left and he was able to go about his normal life, feeling like a new man he accidentally pushed it a little too far and hurt his back again and was desperate for me to pray again, i was stoked there was a result from the last prayer and i was more than willing to minister again, i ministered and then got him to move around... INSTANT HEALING!!! pain left and he could almost touch his toes.



what i learnt was that don't quit if you do not see a healing, he wouldn't of been healed now if i had given up a year ago thinking that this stuff doesn't work. Keep ministering and keeping learning from your mistakes.



iv always figured that when you dont see a healing there is quite often a miss-belief some where in your mind that is preventing the spirit of God to move, so the best thing to do is to trace the miss-belief (or lie) face it and replace it with the truth(or truth coach) and keep working it out into your life... and never be complacent.



also you may not always see the instant result but that doesn't mean your prayer has not worked.



i hope this encourages and helps,



God Bless
