Faithful Prayers of Believers Raised up my Son from Coma!
“…if we know that He hears us – whatever we ask – we know that we have what we asked of Him – I John 5:15 (NIV)”
Third day on 5th November 2000, Pastor Jacob George took me to his Church. It was a small congregation of about 20 to 25 families, all Keralites and Pentecostal. The Pastor explained about the serious condition of my son and asked every one there to pray for my son. They all joined together, circled around me, laid their hands on me and prayed with full heart in one accord. They literally shed tears for my son and cried to Lord Jesus Christ for the healing and deliverance of my son. They all prayed together with one mind “Father, please have mercy on Karthik and his father. Shower your blessings on them. Let your power of resurrection come down on Karthik and raise him up from coma. May your injured hands touch him and heal him completely. We claim complete deliverance and healing for Karthik in the mighty name of Jesus Christ. Father, we read in James 5:15 that the prayers offered in faith will make the sick person well; the Lord will raise him. We claim it for Karthik in full faith in Jesus precious name, Master. Amen”. The Almighty
God who promised His presence, in the midst of two or three gathered on His name (Mt 18:20), heard their tearful prayers made in one accord. The Lord who has said that He will never forsake you (Josh 1:5) and ask anything in His name, you shall get it, listened to their earnest, faithful prayers. The loving, merciful, miracle God – Lord Jesus Christ broke and removed the cords of death entangled around my son, unwound the cords of death coiled around my son and BLESSED MY SON TO COME OUT OF COMA! When we reached the hospital from the Church, we found him seated in a wheel chair, fully conscious and in all his senses for the first time in three months and he nodded his head on seeing and recognizing me. It was a great and pleasing shock for us. Even the doctors and the ICU ward nurses wondered and said that his recovery is quite unbelievable. I could neither believe nor disbelieve my own eyes. I could not help but think like this – the so called Hindu Gods whom I had been worshipping whole heartedly and devotedly for the past 58 years had failed to help my son. On the contrary, the Lord whom I had despised and hated has saved my son from the valley of death. Tears rolled down my cheeks on seeing my son’s recovery from coma of which I had totally lost all my hopes. Jesus Christ who created this entire universe and all the living beings in it with one word, has also changed, altered and nullified the horoscope of my son which predicted the end of my son’s life. Praise the Lord!
