GOD
GAVE ME FOUR MIRACLES IN
MAX SOLBREKKEN'S KIMBERLY CRUSADE
I
received the Lord Jesus Christ into my heart on May 29, 1974 at
3 PM. Both my steadfast neighbour Ben Corrigan, and my sister
Pam Weiler had been praying for my salvation for some time
and I praise God that He gave me spiritual rebirth or salvation.
What a priceless gift He gave me.
With
the children and a husband who was difficult to live with for
quite a long time, I thank God for His saving grace.
Praise God, I was able to go to church, a non denominational
church in Marysville BC. I was allowed to take our three
daughters Harlene, Christine & Kathleen. I was able to
attend Bible study also on a regular basis.
In
1989 my husband William, had his first mini stroke and since
then has had a total of 8 strokes. He became more emotional and
more difficult to live with. His demands finally became too much
to endure so we separated this past September of 1998 and we are
enduring this difficulty of separation
I
WAS VERY STRESSED OUT
It
took me a month to realize how stressed out I had become. God is
great and has provided friends to help me as I struggle with
living alone and having our family hurting through this.
I
moved to Cranbrook, fifteen miles south of Marysville and joined
the First Baptist Church, which was my sister &
brother-in-law’s church. This new church family so
lovingly took me in.
I
attend one Sunday at my home church and the next Sunday at First
Baptist Church. I attended a thirteen week Divorce Care Course
at First Baptist and wonderful healing began. God is perfect.
I
look forward to COMPLETE HEALING OF MYSELF AND FAMILY. The Lord
has wonderfully given me two church families and I thank God for
attending to my needs! Praise God for loving me so much that He
would allow our separation and cause so many loving Church
family members to help me as God’s love is made perfect in my
life.
MAX
SOLBREKKEN WAS HOLDING A MIRACLE CRUSADE IN KIMBERLY, B.C.
I
was visiting a friend in Kimberley last month and a
sister in the Lord came to visit bringing Max Solbrekken’s
advertisement of his coming to Kimberley on Monday night of the
following week and would we come?
As
soon as I heard this I praised God as Max Solbrekken has a
wonderful reputation that has preceded him and nothing could
keep me from going to his meeting.
I
was overjoyed to come forward to re-dedicate my life to God.
Little did I know what God, through Pastor Max, would do in my
life.
Max
Solbrekken asked me what I needed healing for, and I asked for
the pain in my feet to be healed. In my heart I said to God if
only the residual head injuries I had felt for years was healed.
These
head injuries occurred when I was 18 years old and I was working
on our water well drilling rig in Columbia Gardens (the Worley
King subdivision) seven miles out of Trail, BC.
We
were driving 8” pipe down into the ground using 2 tons of
steel driving it up and down, one half of the drive head
(approx. 36 lbs.) broke in half and fell 20 feet and hit me on
the head.
Thank
God I was wearing a protective hard hat and sustained a cut of
about 1 ½”. The safety director held an awards dinner in
honour of this. My blue hard hat is still in Trail Comincos
office on display! I became the first woman in North America to
become a member of the TURTLE CLUB - ‘SHELL ON HEAD WE’RE
NOT DEAD"!
I
HAD BEEN EXPERIENCING TERRIBLE PAIN IN MY BACK & FOR 3 YEARS
I RECEIVED PHYSIOTHERAPY IN THE HOSPITAL
I
asked God to heal all three of these things, but I told
Pastor Max Solbrekken only about the feet (painful feet). God,
therefore, led Max Solbrekken to pray for “my head down to my
feet” and through His perfect plan and healing,
GOD
HEALED ALL THREE PROBLEMS! THIS PROVES THAT HE HEARD ME AND
HEALED ME. PRAISE GOD!
As
if this miracle weren’t enough, I was undergoing the terrible
stress because of my separation.
God
also healed this unrest in my being that plagued me night and
day. Since this prayer and healing through Pastor Max Solbrekken
I have had peace that passes all human understanding, not as the
world gives but that only God could give.
MY
LIFE IS COMPLETELY DIFFERENT NOW.
I
have a need to reach out to help hurting people and God gives me
joy unspeakable, through helping ones in need.
I’ve
changed from one needing help to one who helps. Give God the
glory! God’s grace and mercy are complete and perfect and I
thank God for all these things and I’m glad He has given me
this new beginning for my life.
Bible
Verse Can Cure
Sickness & Diseases
By: Pastor Max Solbrekken
GOD'S
HEALING COVENANT
"And
said, If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of the LORD
thy God, and wilt do that which is right in his sight, and wilt
give ear to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will
put none of these diseases upon thee, which I have brought upon
the Egyptians: for I AM the LORD that healeth thee."
(Exodus 15:26)
NONE
OF THESE DISEASES
One of the
most helpful books in print today is the classic, 'None of These
Diseases' by Dr. S.I. McMillan.
The author,
Dr. S.I. McMillan, a prominent medical doctor uses humor, common
sense and a biblical perspective, in dealing with the causes and
cures of today's diseases.
"It is
lamentable that peace does not come in capsules", he utters
in failure as he remembers the thousands of patients who left
his office with "nothing but a prescription for a bottle of
pills that would only relieve the symptoms of their illness but
not attack the diseases.
The good
doctor laments that he now wishes he had rather prescribed his
book, 'None of These Diseases', so that a permanent cure could
have been affected! According to Medical Science, between
60 and 100% of all diseases are caused by nervous tension,
emotional stress and strain.
Dr. McMillan
states that emotions such as fear, sorrow, envy, resentment and
hatred are responsible for the majority of our sicknesses and
diseases. And that emotional stress can cause high blood
pressure, toxic goiter, arthritis, migraine headaches, apoplexy,
heart trouble, gastro-intestinal ulcers and other serious
illnesses and diseases.
And recently
(about 1996) the American Medical Association released the
findings of a nation-wide survey of tens of thousands of their
medics. One of the questions dealt with their success ratio in
treating patients. The answer is shocking - Only 10% of
patients had received any lasting help through their medical
procedures.
MEDICAL
SCIENCE HISTORY RESTS ON SHAKY FOUNDATION
Having any
problems with falling hair? What do you do to cover up
that bald spot and receding hairline?
Probably the
only solution is to massage your head, comb your hair forward,
get a toupee or just simply let it fall.
CRAZY
CURES FOR DISEASES 3500 YEARS AGO
If you had
lived about 3500 years ago you would have gotten very different
advice - not from a therapist but from your physician.
He would have
quoted from the famous medical authority of that day, Papyrus
Ebers.
"When it
falls out, one remedy is to apply a mixture of six fats, namely
those of the horse, the hippopotamus, the crocodile, the cat,
the snake and the ibex. To strengthen it, anoint with the tooth
of a donkey crushed in honey."
THE PAPYRUS
EBERS - AN ANCIENT MEDICAL WORLD GUIDE - REMEDIES FOR DISEASES
1552 BC.
The Papyrus
Ebers was published about 1552 BC and occupied a dominant
position in the ancient medical world and was one of the leading
guides for practicing physicians for a long time.
There are
literally hundreds of remedies for diseases in this book, such
as lizard's blood, swine's teeth, putrid meat, stinking fat,
moisture from pig's ears, milk goose grease, asses hooves,
animal fat from various sources, excrete from animals, including
human beings, donkeys, antelopes, dogs, cats and even flies.
THROUGH
MOSES, GOD MADE HIS HEALING COVENANT WITH THE JEWISH NATION
Moses was
born about the time the 'Papyrus Ebers' was written in Egypt.
He was educated in their highest schools of learning - scholars
think he was also a physician - as the son of Pharaoh's
daughter.
But when God
called Moses to lead His people out of Egyptian bondage, he did
not borrow from the "occultist clap-trap" in their
medical books of disease remedies. He rejected the
highest, most respected medical authority of that day.
Moses'
directive was "Heed the voice of God, do right, obey His
commandments, keep His statutes and I will heal you."
God did not
borrow medical advice from the 'Papyrus Ebers'. His advice to
Moses was contrary to the most highly respected medical thought
of that day.
THE
CHURCH WAS INSTRUMENTAL IN STOPPING
THE BLACK DEATH DISEASE
Millions of
Europeans died of the disease Leprosy for hundreds of years.
Some physicians thought the cause of the disease Leprosy was
eating hot food or the meat of diseased hogs. Others
blamed the disease Leprosy on malign conjunction of the planets.
Approximately
60 million people died from the BLACK DEATH disease in the 14th
century. Dr. George Rosen of Columbia University writes:
"Leadership was taken by the Church, as the physicians had
nothing to offer. The Church took as its guiding principal
the concept of contagion as embodied in the Old Testament.
DISEASE
OF LEPROSY - PEOPLE AFFLICTED WITH THIS DISEASE WERE QUARANTINED
"Once
the condition of leprosy has been established, the patient was
to be segregated and excluded from the community...it
accomplished the first great feat...in methodical eradication of
disease".
Possibly, the
Church needs to investigate measures to insure that the AIDS
epidemic does not leap from high risk groups to the general
population, since governmental and medical bodes are again
"doing nothing:.
For centuries
in Europe, multitudes perished from deadly diseases because of
improper hygiene, sanitation and sloppy hospitals. In many
villages, human excrement and waste was dumped into the streets,
bringing deadly diseases, creating epidemics of typhoid, cholera
and dysentery!
GOD HAD
GIVEN INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE BURYING OF
WASTES 3500 YEARS AGO
The solution
to the problem that was causing these deadly diseases, the
burying of wastes, had been given by God 3500 years before (in
Deuteronomy 23:12-13).
HYGIENE
CUT MORTALITY RATE - GOOD HYGIENE STOPPED DISEASES FROM
SPREADING
Venna
in the 1840s was famous as a medical center. One of the
most famous teaching hospitals of that day was Allegemeine
Krakenhus. In its maternity ward, one out of six women
died.
Dr. Ignaz
Semmelveis discovered that if doctors washed their hands well,
after doing autopsies and before examining expectant mothers,
the mortality rate dropped drastically.
Dr.
Semmelveis was not applauded by the Medical Profession.
However, he was ridiculed by his peers, discredited, lost his
position and eventually succumbed to the pressure, dying in a
mental hospital.
Moses had
given the same advice many centuries before (in Numbers 19).
If wasn't until 1878 that the method of cleaning hands and
instruments was introduced by men like John Tyendall, Louis
Pasteur and Sir Joseph Lister that the mortality rate began to
drop.
The New York
State Department of Health, in 1960, issued a book describing a
method of washing the hands very similar to that found the BIBLE
- Numbers Chapter 19.
JOHN
WESLEY, FOUNDER OF THE METHODIST CHURCH DECLARED IT WAS GOD'S
WILL FOR MIRACLES TO BE IN THE CHURCH, BUT THE MIRACLES HAD BEEN
LOST DUE TO UNBELIEF.
It's
interesting to note that John Wesley - founder of the Methodist
Church declared that it is God's will for miracles to be in the
Church, for the entire Church age, but have been lost to the
church because of UNBELIEF.
He further
stated, "The only method of physics employed by the Early
Church for the first 400 years, was the prayer of faith."
Medical
science has come a long way since Papyrus Ebers was published in
1552, BC and even since the 1840's in Vienna, but I still think
that when your family physician advises you to get a second or
third opinion about an operation, its a good idea.
Now if anyone
wants to try the remedy for falling hair, don't let me
discourage you. But then where would you find a hippopotamus
these days?
As for me and
my house, we will Trust the Lord and serve Him only!
