Dee’s Heart Attack
One morning my wife was screaming and pounding on the wall. I had to call 911 because she could not breath and had a sharp pain in her chest. The Ambulance took her to emergency here in Newport Oregon. They eventually took her to Corvallis about an hour from here. I went to see her and one of my Pastors from Newport called his Pastor friend and since he could not go he asked him to go and pray for her. I left Siletz and went straight to Corvallis to the Hospital. I came into her room and they were praying with her. There was the Pastor and two other young people with him. I was praying with them and I noticed this elderly lady suffering in the bed next to my wife’s bed. As the Pastor and the others prayed for my wife I started talking to the lady next to her and she was on two machines and really hurting and I reached out my hand and she would not take it. Then she reached her hand out to me. Even though the enemy was kicking her behind. She could feel the Holy ghost in the room and wanted my hand. I laid my hand on her and asked her what she wanted and she said all these machines were gone and to go home. She wasn’t talking about her home because she was in an elderly care home and they almost let her die. I talked to the daughter and told her she was going to have to surrender her will for God’s will and take her home with her and care for her. She wasn’t really happy about that. She said the doctor said her mom wasn’t going to make it . I said yes she will and I prayed in God’s heavenly language over her and told her daughter to watch and see what God does now. They were going to give my wife surgery in the morning. Why were they getting ready? I went to the room where the lady I prayed for was. She was off the machines and doing much better. I had given my wife some flowers and she could not bring them to her new room after surgery. I gave them to the elderly lady. She was smiling and she knew who I was. Well Dee had surgery and I went back to the room and the lady was gone. I asked the nurse and she said the doctor could not believe she was fine, no pain and her daughter told the nurse to tell me she went home with her not to the care home. I was wow here in the middle of my wives trouble. God used me to heal another. God also had the surgery go awesome. My wife eventually overcame it all and is here 4 years later to testify about all of it. The other thing was our good friend’s son was the nurse to push my wife into the operating room. I was like look at God, my wife was laughing before surgery and the doctor looked at her and said I am good at what I do. You are laughing now you will come out laughing. Well that didn’t happen when she woke up. I was there when she opened her eyes. She smiled and was doing her best to be her tough self. The thing is there are several times that angels were sent by God as men to do his work. I wondered if this doctor was real or was he sent by God. There are times that God has used me and I didn’t tell a soul. This was one of those times and now I am sharing with you. The end of the story is that one of our Pastors at our church had a heart attack. We went to pray for him and he was in the same bed as the lady and the bed next to where my wife was when all the praying went on. Well we prayed for him and he was home the next day. Tell me God isn’t in the healing business. Please don’t think I think it was Roger Roach who did this miracle. Yet it was my hand and my mouth that laid my hand on her and prayed for her. Thank God he has used me for 45 years to do his work one gift or another.
