This is my testimony that I wrote on Nov 10, 2006
On the morning of Nov 8th, 2006 I broke my arm. It is miraculously healed by the power of Jesus Christ.
I am self employed and have no health insurance. I was in the back of my truck in front of a customer’s house. I had ramps hanging off of my tailgate, and as I normally do, I exited the back of my truck by walking down the ramps, only this day the ramps were wet, and I was wearing the wrong shoes. My foot slipped out from under me, I landed on my backside, and I broke my fall with my left arm.
As I hit the ground felt a pain in my left arm the likes of which I had never felt before in my life. I knew immediately that it was busted, and, I said, “Ouch.”
I know profanity in four different languages, and what came out of my mouth was, “Ouch.” That is a miracle in itself.
I immediately went into prayer, and picked myself up off the ground. I then realized that it could have been much worse, and switched from prayer to praise and thanks giving. I then finished the job that I was doing with my arm hanging by my side.
At that point, though, I went home, put my arm in a sling and watched Ben Hur.
All this time I am thinking, what better timing could this possibly have been? We knew that Pastor Rich Oliver of Family Christian Center, Orangevale CA was in town, and this was the only night in his entire itinerary that we were going to be able to hear him speak, and that in such an intimate setting as TLC Assembly of God, Trinidad, CA. I knew that there would be no more than 20 people there. I knew that I was getting healed that night.
My wife prays good, and she holds the office of an intercessor, but I didn’t go to her, which was wrong. It was nothing on her. It was a problem with my faith. Frankly, any person who professes to be a follower of Jesus Christ, yet does not have sign, miracles and wonders following him, has a problem with his faith. I did not. Pastor Rich does. As Kenyan would put it, I had faith in Pastor Rich’s faith. I know it’s wrong, but it’s all I had.
I was prayed for that night, but there was no change. Change does not always happen right away. I was told that it should be healed by morning.
The next morning I had more strength in my hand. My arm still hurt, but it wasn't broke. The day before, I was unable to lift my hand to my face. I just so happened to be reading “Christ The Healer” by F.F. Bosworth right now. As I read that morning I recalled something that you Pastor Rich had said the night before, that we need to pray for more faith, and I remembered that true faith is childlike. I stood up and I prayed for a child like faith, and I lifted my hands to The Lord which I could not do the day before, and the pain decreased, and the strength in my arm increased and I decided that I am going to work.
I put in 5 hours that day. There was still pain, but the arm was not broken. By the end of the day my wrist hurt more than my elbow and that was a very minor sprain in my wrist. This morning, less than 47 hours from the accident, there is hardly any pain at all. It’s almost as if it didn’t happen at all, but there is no denying it.
The Lord profited this week. I had an encounter with God. Sharon and I are called to street ministry, and it is to be a ministry of power and miracles, yet we have never preformed a great miracle the likes of the one that happened to me this week, and I thank God that I broke my arm Wednesday morning. It was the jump start that we needed for our ministry.
Nov 17, 2006
It is now a week later, and I am still amazed at what had happened. On Wednesday morning I could not wipe my face with my left hand. On Friday evening I was a rodie for The Celebration Band lifting equipment that weighed over 100 lbs. My faith is increased.

Miracles are truly possible. Actually a 'miracle' to a human can be a 'common scientific phenomenon' to an enlightened being. For example, instant healing of a person medically declared as nearing death can be a miracle in our terms, while the healer might be aware of true science of human anatomy including auric field, DNA level healing.. for that person the healing is a simple application of balancing the person's entire body (not only physical).
I very well recall several miracles that I myself have experienced which can fall under paranormal realm. These include OBEs and watching 'future event' precisely as it happens several hours/days later. But who will believe? You can go on convincing people that 'there is no order of difficulty in miracles' but people are highly brain washed to accept anything like that easily.
If you can start exploring possibilities, you will start surpassing all known boundaries.

Dude you have no idea!!! I see miracles every day, and radical healing miracles at least four times a week. The Holy Spirit uses us to pray for healing both physically and spiritually. Visions, all that stuff. Most importantly, the overwhelming love and presence of God is the best miracle ever. Me, I've been healed in my leg, neck, places like that. I've prayed for people where the Spirit has healed sicknesses and pains both gradually and instantly, and I had a friend pray for a teen deaf in one ear like two weeks ago and the guy burst into tears cause he had never been able to hear like that before in that ear- totally healed. But remember, we don't seek God because of his miracles- miracles are His way of blessing and sharing His love. We seek God just to be with His loving self hahaha :)

yes, but the experience thereof is purely relative. A few decades ago, when I visited Tiruchendur Murugan temple on the seashore with my friend, I and my friend sat on the footsteps of the temple and were enjoying the cool breeze from the sea. The tumultuous crowd that had gathered at the site of the temple was in a trance. It was a festival day and naturally there were a lot of beggars begging for alms from the visitors. My friend asked me what could be the response from a beggar if we give a rupee. (Usually a beggar used to get only 10 paise or 20 paise only ) Those days (in 1970s) a rupee was a big sum and can fetch two square meals. I told him that the beggar would naturally be too grateful and say a few words of thanks. We searched for a rupee coin, but finding none but having a five rupee note only decided to give it to the beggar.
As soon as I put in on the stretched hands of the beggar, much to my surprise and astonishment, the beggar moved away from us a few yards to suddenly fall at the feet of God, saying loudly, as loud as thunder, "Muruga! How magnanimous you are! You gave me 5 rupees when I did not expect even 50 paise today." Saying this again and again, he prostrated before the deity unmindful of us who gave him the money.
Flashed before my arrogant self was the bare truth, which was a moment of truth for me. All that we think WE DO, are in fact, acts of God and we are just instruments of God. It is our foolishness to imagine that we are the authors of such and such thing, when we are not.
Even when we do some good act, we must be happy that God has given us a frame of mind to do such good act.
To me, this incident was a miracle, as I believe that I was made to understand this dictum by God.

You need to believe either (1) in yourself or (2) in God. Miracles does happen. Sometime takes time but in due course we can witness them.
Miracle:- Getting through the toughest, meanest exam with high grades !!
People might say everybody does lay bricks and do hard work but there is lot of difference between 80-90% and 100%. Only God can make possible for you to get the three digits mark. It does not matter which God we believe but as long as we believe then it is all taken care of.

yes i beleve in god and his miracles also reat this miracle from saint john the russian below:
A famous civil engineer of Athens, after many mendical examinations, finds out from the doctors that his headaches and the change in his mood result from a cancerous tumor in the brain.
The doctors suggested that he should take the decision and accept the cranial section at the height of the forehead and around it,so the doctors could removethe tumour.
He asks for the negative conseguences. The doctors tell him about the risks, the whole truth . But he doesn't the dicision. He is melancholy and starts suffering even more.
A few days later , at 3 o'clock after midnight,his phone is ringing: << Uncle, is that you? says his niece, a twelve years old girl, a little angel. <
<>.
<>
The engineer accepts,the surgery is done and the tumor removed.
How bright were the faces of everyone, whene we saw them at Saint John's church and, first of all, his charming little niece who spoke with Saint John. The engineer took off his hat and the gauzes were still around the cutting.<>.

Oh yeah!! Only sometimes miracles seem rather everyday. We must look with awe at the little things around us. How so much could go wrong that doesn't. We don't see the miracles until we actually look for them. God trully is involved in the everyday. The world would spin completely out of control if t weren't so. And even when it seems that it is about too, don't be blaming God for it.

I have been gifted with the power to curse, I came to know about this when I cursed my Hindu neighbour due to certain problems with them, they consulted the astroleger and they were not able to remove the curse, at last I obliged and removed the curse, but the problem started from there, the astroleger or the other person could read and see my mind, he could see any pictures I visualise in my mind,my feelings,my thoughts and he would tell the whole thing non stop to my neighbour who made the whole life public and horrible for me, they would say things loud for me to hear and see and get the feedback through mobile from the astrolegers, they enjoyed the whole thing day and night. Even now I am not able to stop it. And another Instance is that I could visualise certain things by accident which happens for real. Also note that I still dont know whether my curse will happen for real or why they are so much concerned about it, spending lots of money and pain to get it removed.

first yo must understand that miracles are nothing but things that do nt understsnd what and how .they always happend to ignorant people .I hcve seen a rustic wonder at typewriting machine and comment that the whiteman's brain is far superior as he has invetned a mchie hat can churn out hundreds of pages of matter as y go not hitting its buttons .,The white man had out so mauch matter in that little machine tha tis able to give material on any matter on earth.
so is the case with magic .When we do not understand how th emagician makes something out of nothing , it is a miracle for us.Once yu know how and why thgs happen, it is no mor ea miracle .Thre are no mircles in tis world .Everythinghappens accordig ot some prinnciples in operation in nature .they are miracles only so long as we are not able tosee the principles in acion.

Yes . :)
When I was kid, i was sitting above the tracks of the train, that platform, i was swinging my legs down to the tracks, i didn't know that the train would arrive that time...i was eating a chocolate, the train was about to crash my legs, at that time ...some thing..i don't know...or some force pulled me back...
I can't forget that even now. I think it's a Miracle. Other wise i would have lost my legs ! :(((
And for my mother there are 2 girl child, including me...and sister and me...and it's her great wish that she want a boy child..but before 2 years when my mother delivered a boy child..someone an astrologer said that she would sure have a boy child ! . And that's true. :)

I prayed to St Joseph to help my husband have a warm heart toward me (during a very trying time in our marriage) and three days later, we had communication. (He had joined a cult and everything, was living apart, demanding to see the little ones It was crazy). Then I prayed to St Michael for 9 days and two weeks later, all the people of the cult moved out. It totally dissolved. It turned out that the man running the cult would sleep with all the women, even though they were the wives of other men. It was really bizarre because everyone knew about it and all of them agreed to it. When I told my husband that I had prayed that prayer, he said that during the night, a man (an elder) came to him in a dream and asked him what was he doing there? After that, he didn't want to be there any more, and found out about all the crazy goings-on.
