Healing Testimonies

July/August 03 Update - Victory Over Cancer

Dear friends and prayer partners,

Greetings in the mighty name of Jesus!

These two months have been filled with ministry needs and various trials, hence I must apologize for not keeping you abreast of happenings more often. God is good, faithful and kind and strengthened and enabled me to maintain the victory over trials, while also empowering and enabling me to minister to new and existing cancer referrals.

It was in early August that I was informed about the ministry of Pastor Jean Lim, a minister from Malaysia.  At a service where she ministered I was privileged and blessed to witness how the Lord used her in a ministry of teaching, preaching and healing the sick, just like what Jesus did when He was on earth (Matthew 4:23, 9:35). To learn as much as I could from how the Lord anointed her and used her I bought a number of books written by her and also her VCDs of healing testimonies.

In her book Victory Over Cancer she shares from her extensive experience in ministering to cancer patients. In particular she shared a number of terminally ill advanced cancer patients, who were supernaturally healed by the Lord's mighty hand. What doctors and conventional treatments had failed to do, the Lord used her to bring those on the brink of death to healing and good health. He not also saved and healed their bodies from death and destruction, but also saved the souls of the sick and their family members. Sometimes an entire family turned to the Lord when they see the mercy of God extended to heal their loved ones.

She gives these pointers in how to achieve victory over cancer:

1. Do not receive the pronouncement of death over you

Do not let it bring a curse on you. Reject and renounce it straightaway.  The bible says that every good gift comes from God (James 1:17). Sickness is not a good gift. Sickness is not from God but from Satan. When you receive the word which says that you are sick, you open the door of your life to Satan. You allow him to attack you with sickness and disease.

2. Listen to the Word of God

Do not listen to the negative words of man but listen to the word of God. Believe in the word of God. This is important.  Matthew 8:17 confirms that "He Himself took our infirmities and bore our sicknesses."  The written word of God is the revealed word of God.  God has already sent His word in the person of Jesus Christ (John 1:1) to heal us.  When Jesus died for our sins 2,000 years ago, He also died for our sicknesses.  "My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge" (Hoshea 4:6).  Many Christians today are struggling with sickness and disease not because God is not powerful or great enough to deliver them, but because they do not know the word of God.

3. Do not let Satan take advantage of you

Do you know why Satan can take advantage of God's people today? Because they are ignorant of his devices (2 Corinthians 2:11).  God does not want us to remain ignorant. He has given us His wisdom to discern and to see in the spiritual realm (2 Corinthians 4:16-18).  Paul warned us that we have an unseen enemy. This enemy, Satan, is wicked and highly strategised (Ephesians 6:10-17).  Without God, man is without hope. God does not want us to put our trust in man but only in Him (Jeremiah 17:5-7).

4. Know that you have a big God

Read the Bible afresh and ask for God's revelation on how to receive divine healing.

5. Have faith in God, not man

The Bible says to have faith in God (Mark 11:22), not in man.  Many people put their faith in the wrong things. But if you put your faith in God, God will never fail you.

6. Build up your faith

If you have unbelief, confess it to God and cast it out now.  Read the word of God daily. Fill your mind with the word of God. Do not allow negative influences to distract and weigh you down. Learn to put your whole trust in Him. Be in the presence of God always. Seek after Him.

7. Do not be double-minded. Act on your faith

Faith is trusting Jesus 100%. When you receive the healing power flowing through you, act in faith. If you are lying down in bed, stand up and walk. If you cannot eat, eat. Do what you thought you could not do before.  Attend as many healing meetings as you can. Talk to those who have already received healing. Encourage yourself in the Lord. Give praise and thanks to him for healing you. Worship Him.

So far many of the nutrition books that I bought teach how to prepare food the western way. One book that teaches how to prepare food closer to the Asian diet is Nature's Cancer-Fighting Foods by Verne Varona. It also presents detailed description of various foods that prevent and reverse most common forms of cancer.  This book should be available at local bookstores.

"The causes of cancer and systems that reverse cancer must be learned by everyone. Nature's Cancer-Fighting Foods is needed now more than ever. I highly recommend it!" - Burton Goldberg, President, Alternative Medicine.com

"Simple, clear, effective techniques and explanations that can prevent cancer and alter its path. Many cancer patients, over the years, have received great benefit, comfort, and healing from Verne's program.  Now it is finally available to all. A must read!" - Michelle Leclaire O'Neill, Ph.D., R.N., Director Mind/Body Center

"Verne Varona clarifies many dietary myths while presenting a clear nutritional guideline for cancer-prevention strategies. This book presents powerful information that should be available to all." - Jack Canfield, Co-Author, Chicken Soup for the Soul

On the back cover it reads - 'Medical investigation is now pointing to the inescapable conclusion that nutrition has preventive powers. Grounded in documented research from leading medical institutions - along with studies of the world's healthiest populations - nutrition educator Verne Varona has developed a breakthrough nutritional and lifestyle program for immunity building and cancer prevention.  This book is a compass guide to better health - with detailed diet and lifestyle modifications that will reinforce your body's immunity and reduce cell-damage to an absolute minimum.'

That's all I have to share and until the next update may the Lord bless each to be diligent to be good stewards of our bodies, the temple of the living God.  May the Lord grant abundant grace, strength, courage and faith to those still battling on and awaiting full restoration.

In His service,
