After prayer, when you immediately began to experience healing from a terminal illness, how did you react?

Question

If you've battled with an illness doctors thought would be terminal, or something you'd struggle with all your life, how did you respond when your illness immediately began to improve AFTER you gave your life to God and prayed for healing?

Did you sit quietly and cry for hours, sit stunned in silence, or jump up and down for joy and tell all who would listen? It does not have to be a terminal illness, it can be any type of problem which affected your health. Please describe.

Also, this healing from the Lord, came after YEARS of trying positive thinking, alternative therapies, professional medical treatments, medications, and tons of new age methods of healing which DID NOT work, for those who are bound to respond claiming it was a placebo, psychology, type of healing. Only someone healed by God, would recognize supernatural power at work. I'd like to hear how your healing took place, and how you responded after seeing immediate change in lab tests, overall health, etc.

Only God and the person who prays for healing, really knows their heart and the level of faith in which one prayers. There are times I thought I had faith, but now know, I had very little at that time.

Answer 1

I had a lot of joy, praise, and most importantly continued to do what I was doing. Stayed in faith that I was being healed. After 3 years of poking and prodding, doctors gave up on me..it was a mysterious illness. But the Lord revealed what the problem was through prayer and giving my husband and I wisdom. I was bed ridden off and on during that time. Tried everything..now my body looks as if there was never anything wrong..I'm back to training for marathons.
I grew a great deal spiritually at that time. Even though I do not believe God makes people sick..what I went through brought a lot of stability and spiritual breakthrough into my life.

Edit: you are right in your additional comments. You have to pray in faith and not just throw prayers around to see what works. In the beginning of my ordeal, I didn't have that much faith, looking back, but it grew as I dug into the word. I would lay in bed and hold my Bible up so I could read and speak the scripture. I had healing verses posted all over my house.

You've really got to be a sick (in the head) individual to give what I said a thumbs down...no matter what you believe...I was VERY sick.

Answer 2

I recall a very hot summer day in September of 2012. I had not been feeling well for some time and I felt very ill. I would tell my co-workers and they would kind of chuckle staying I was stressed out. Well back to that hot day I was on my way to work. Tired of struggling, tying different things to make things better. I gave up and prayed giving thanks condemning Satin, and asking God to reveal to me what was wrong or if it was my time to just take me out. I continued struggling with pain, forgetfulness, even errors on my paper work which I had very few of before. Then in October 2012 there was to be a downsizing at work and I was one of many to be released. What else could go wrong but I'm not a quitter. I worked just as if nothing was going to happen while others took the exit mode and just waited for our dead line given. I could no longer stand the pain but I continued in prayer rebuking Satin and asking God to hear my prayers. Little did I know that he was making changes. Frist I was called by our HR department to advise me that a vote had been taken to keep me if it was what I wanted. Yes of course I kept my job. Secondly the pain was so much I broke down and finally went to see my family doctor. He revealed to me what was wrong and why I was in so much pain. Of course it was not good news but it was an answer to one of my requests in prayer. I'll make my experience as short as possible, I have gone through many medical procedures this past year that it takes several typed pages to list. Thirdly and most important to me he has thought me I can not do things on my own. So the fight is on with my God leading the way. Oh what are we fighting?? I was diagnosed with Liver Cancer I had at the time 6 large tumors effecting both the right and left sides. Complicating things I have a very low platelet count which means that I could bleed to death if I were cut or suffered an injury. Forth he has revealed to me too see many others of all walks in life in worse or same illness as mine. So he has taught me that he knows my needs, has done things for my faith and continuance to stay in the fight. So I pray for those children that are so strong, those suffering form this disease called CANCER, the families which have been effected. For those who have gone in memory to them their fight was to no avail. Last but not the least my family, friends, associate's, co-workers and those whom I don't know other than through social media.
Oh, how did I react when told that I had stage 4 liver cancer. Like any human who has been told you are dyeing. After prayer and now hopeful, rejoicing, sing and dancing cause I know now that I can not be snatch from the hands of my GOD.

Answer 3

God works in mysterious ways. That is the only explaination.
There have been unanswered questions to doctors on how a person can completely recover.

Answer 4

How many people has that happened to?? Do you really think you'll find people on here that were like cured of their polio by jesus?? I had a cold once and I took some nyquil and immediately felt better- you wanna start worshipping nyquil??

Answer 5

Just because doctors may not know the reason for an unexpected recovery doesn't mean that god is the reason, unless of course you've already made that assumption.

Answer 6

Answer 7

You might first want to ask if anyone has received such a healing before you ask about how they responded to it.
