200-[World Mission] Butembo, DR Congo, Huston, Texas USA, Hokota Japan

[World Mission] Butembo, DR Congo, Huston, Texas USA, Hokota Japan

l Butembo, DR Congo l The God's Blessing Came upon Our Family after the Handkerchief Prayer Sheila Kavira Palia I was only waiting for death with stomach cancer. It had recurred again and again so my body was in an extremely weak condition after 4 surgeries. "How about going to Nairobi hospital and receiving surgery one last time?" I hopped on a plane to Nairobi by myself. Elder Muhindo came to see me at the airport. He recommended that I meet Bishop Dr. Myongho Cheong and receive his prayer prior to going to the hospital. At first, I couldn't accept it. But he confidently said that almighty God could heal any diseases even though it's impossible with human ability. He introduced healing works that happened in Nairobi Holiness Manmin church. I changed my mind and finally went to Nairobi Manmin Church. Meanwhile, Divine Healing Meeting was being held on that day. I was moved and filled with joy by the messages. The works of power manifested by Dr. Jaerock Lee all around the world were amazing. I was speechless to witness not only many souls gaining new life but also various diseases including AIDS being healed; the raising of the dead; the blind coming to see and the mute speaking. Bishop Dr. Myongho Cheong said to those who attended Divine Healing Meeting "After you repent from your heart of not loving God and obeying His word and receive the prayer, God will heal you." After Divine Healing Meeting, I met Dr. Myongho Cheong and asked for his counsel about my situation and family problems. I said to Him, "I have a stomach cancer and my husband's suffering from heart disease and his business and my daughter in Canada hasn't had a baby in 2 years and my son left home and didn't come back." "First, you have to offer 3-day fasting and repent with your family," said he. I told my daughter and my husband what I heard. After we offered 3-day fasting, we went to Bishop Dr. Myongho Cheong. He prayed for us with the handkerchief on which Dr. Jaerock Lee had prayed. First, he prayed laying handkerchief on my head and then he prayed upon my husband and the picture of my daughter and son. Since then, I found my health instead of dying from cancer and my husband is receiving blessing in his business along with the healing of his heart disease. My son came back home and accepted the Lord and my daughter in Canada got pregnant two months later. We received literally comprehensive blessings upon our family. l Huston, Texas USA l "Only by Receiving the Prayer through the Internet" Mercida Delgado Stone I am Venezuelan and currently living in Huston, Texas in the USA. I came to know about Dr. Jaerock Lee in February 2007 from my sister who lived in Venezuela. She likes to listen to Dr. Jaerock Lee's sermon through Enlace TV (the largest Christian TV broadcasting in Central America) and she is receiving much grace through the Manmin Central Church website. Each Saturday night, I attend the Sunday morning service through the Internet and I am being deeply touched by the Dr. Lee's sermons on the Manmin website. Hearing his messages is a big blessing to my life. In addition, many people are being healed and giving testimony by receiving prayer on the internet. And I was healed of urinary incontinence and my husband and my mother received healing of their diseases as well. August in 2008, my husband, Jack Louis Stone, had a heart problem that three of his heart veins were clogged. He was supposed to undergo a huge surgery that would transplant veins taken from the leg into his heart. I urgently sent letter to Seoul to request Dr. Jaerock Lee's prayer. 3 days later, the test result showed that the clogged veins became normal. My husband and I were overjoyed. And also my mother who lives in Venezuela was healed of urinary incontinence when Dr. Lee prayed upon the picture that I sent. Dr. Jaerock Lee is leading us to live a distinguished life in this world filled with sins and teaching us to live obedient and sanctified lives before God. As I read Dr. Lee's books a couple of times, I could understand more about God's plan in my life. Now it's great joy and happiness to live a holy life before God and obey His word. l Hokota Japan l "I Was Cured of Social Phobia" Masaru Iitsuka I had to live a dismal life in my youth having a social phobia from 16. I tried suicide two times when I was 19 and suffered from mental storms for 10 months. The year I turned 21, I accepted the Lord to depend on religion. I decided to dedicate my life and spent most of my time at the church. But I was continuously tormented by social phobia. I felt like I was dying when I spoke in front of people. I failed to overcome this by faith and left the church. Afterwards, I married and opened a video rental shop to make a living. But I felt more and more agonized and had to shut it down. . There was one thing that quenched my spiritual thirst. That was Japanese version of Manmin News sent from Ida Manmin Church. In February 2007, I called Ida Manmin Church and met Rev. Seungil Ryu. When he gave me a handkerchief prayer, I was overwhelmed by indescribably strong power and peace that came to my heart. The next month, I established Hokota Manmin Church and attended worship service through GCN. And finally, last March I visited Manmin Central Church for the healing of social phobia. Visiting the crowded place itself was a surprising thing for me, and I felt powerful strength coming into my body when Dr. Lee said "Let me pray for the sick." At the moment I gained an assurance of my healing. Previously, I was afraid of even dining with unfamiliar people. But, after receiving the prayer, I could comfortably talk and enjoy meals with others. This was a great miracle that happened to me. At last, I was healed of social phobia that had tormented me for 50 years. Hallelujah!

199-Healed of Diabetes after Powerful Prayer

Healed of Diabetes after Powerful Prayer

Sungguk Kim (New Daegu Manmin Church) From January 2008, I felt greatly so fatigued to the point that I couldn't lead a normal life and I lost desire to live. I suffered severely from indigestion and stomach aches. I felt pressure like someone was choking me from the back. "You have diabetes. Normally, the blood sugar level is about 126mg%, but you are at 327-384mg%. What is worse, you have stomach and duodenal ulcer. The organs have been damaged due to the complications. You have to be hospitalized immediately. I was so desperate. Usually, diabetes doesn't have noticeable symptoms until it becomes very serious as it was with my case. Eventually, I even had to quit working. As a member of New Daegu Manmin Church I envied those who were healed of diseases by the power of God through Dr. Jaerock Lee's prayer. I so much wondered how they could receive the answers and I reflected on myself and tried to live by the word of God. And finally, I came to confess to others "I am enjoying a happy and peaceful life by believing in God." When I decided to commit everything to God concerning the healing of diabetes and the complications from it, my family, Pastor Wansup Sim, and church members together prayed and fasted for me. . In March, 2009 when I received the prayer from Dr. Jaerock Lee, strength was given to my body and I began to see clearly. From that point on, the blood sugar level stayed at normal level even after I ate as much as I wanted and the organs recovered as well. According to the medical checkup taken in May 2009, the blood sugar level was 101mg% and cholesterol level also turned out to be normal. Hallelujah!

198-My Happy Story as Manager of A-Dollar Vegetable Store

My Happy Story as Manager of A-Dollar Vegetable Store

From a Jobless Man to the Owner of Two Vegetable Stores Deacon Hangsuk Bang (1-2 Parish, 2-1 Men's Mission) Happy moment of his family (From left Jion, Jisung, Deacon Hangsuk Bang and his wife Deaconess Jungsuk Park) "We find life thrilling when unexpected things happen in our lives. A good example is the following story of a man who was once a salaried businessman but now has become the head of a few vegetable stores." This was what happened after I lost my job during the Korea's IMF financial crisis in 1999. I was eating at a restaurant and saw a truck loaded with vegetables passing by. I thought this was what I really needed, and prepared a truck and started to sell vegetables going around in the streets. Without experience I had to undergo many troubles. But as God was with Joseph wherever he was, I believed God is watching me all the time and makes me learn through difficulties. So I tried to give thanks even when the sales were not good. Then God made me open up a little store at the corner of a street in Nangok-dong, Gwanak District, Seoul, Korea. I named the store 'A Dollar Vegetable Store' wanting to sell vegetables at an affordable price. And I treated each customer with kindness and walked the right path by providing fresh and good quality vegetables. I had to calm myself down to keep from provoking my mental anxiety whenever I went to the wholesale market. In that place where people argue about money, I felt sorry before God when I sometimes raised my voice. Can I act like this as a believer in God? I prayed and discovered myself seeking my benefit and giving hard times to others. But as I accomplished the generous heart and conceded to others, my heart couldn't be more comfortable. Nothing can block it when God is willing to give blessing. Actually I was inspired to open up another chain store while I was in prayer. Though others advised me saying "What you are thinking is impossible! You have to think more before you act" However, I gain even greater assurance. That's how I opened up a new chain of the 'A Dollar Vegetable Stores.' Before I took charge of this place, I stood in front of the store on a daily basis and prayed "I want to take charge of this place if You let me. Otherwise, I will give up." I opened the third, fourth and fifth stores and I was fully dependant on God. I paid the whole tithe on my total income including salaries for the staff and other expenses. When I failed to keep the tithe due to financial troubles, I wrote it down and later offered everything at one time. It was in 1995 when I was led to Manmin Central Church through Dr. Jaerock Lee's testimonial memoirs Tasting Eternal Life Before Death. At that time I was thirsty for the word of God and was deep in love with spiritual messages. I remember I knelt down overwhelmingly touched while listening to the message 'Heaven' on audio tapes. Everywhere in the church was filled with grace so I felt like I was in Heaven. I felt happy just being a Manmin member. With a thankful heart for the grace, my wife and I are dedicating ourselves as one of the Prayer Devotees and a member of Manmin Volunteers' Mission. And our family again felt the deep love of God through our youngest, six-year-old son, Jion, He suffered from runny nose and had difficulty breathing. At the hospital he was diagnosed with otitis media, empyema, and rhinitis. We prepared to receive the prayer of Senior Pastor with prayer and fasting, and after receiving his prayer, Jion was healed completely. We feel nothing but thankfulness for the love of God who embraces us more warmly when we trust and rely on Him in any kind of situation.

197-God Healed Me of Cystitis

God Healed Me of Cystitis

Deaconess Jungim Kang (Gumi Manmin Church) With her husband Yoonbok Yang Beginning on March 21st I passed urine that looked like water leftover from washing rice and urinating was painful to the point of making my whole body ache. Even after sitting on the toilet twenty to thirty minutes I didn't feel good at all. And I couldn't sleep deeply at night going to the bathroom excessively. When I searched internet to find out what was wrong, I knew that I had Cystitis. 'Our church members have given glory to God after being healed of more serious diseases than this. I also have to commit this to God.' On March 31st I received the prayer from Senior Pastor. But the symptoms seemed to get worse. But with an assurance of healing I wasn't discouraged. And in four days, I realized that I was healed. At night I could fall into deep sleep without waking up until morning. When I passed urine that once looked like rice water, the urine became normal. My husband saw this and it gave him faith. Now the Cystitis has completely gone and I feel like I am flying in the air.

196-I Get Promoted This Time?

I Get Promoted This Time?

Deacon Sungkyu Baek (1-3 Canaan Mission, PS Research and Development Technology Team at SamKwang PS Inc.) "Congratulations on your promotion! Now I have to call you 'Deputy Manager Baek.' I was amazed to hear this unexpected news after just two years from the time that I had started working because it was difficult for others even in three years. I thought I have to glorify God by being blessed in both sprit and flesh as a Christian. So in the workplace I tried to do my best in everything even if it was not something my job required. In addition, I attended the Daniel Prayer Meeting every night to spiritually take care of myself and I tried to keep the fullness of the Holy Spirit in my heart through joining volunteer activities in Canaan Mission, which is a gathering of college graduates within the church who are not married. I was so grateful for the love of God when I heard about the news thinking 'Blessings come in a totally unexpected ways!' My colleagues rejoiced with me, saying, "Since you joined here, you've kept your faith. It was good to see you always working faithfully." I give thanks to God who has answered me since I prayed to find my job, and now blessed me with a good salary.

195-I Am Free from the Aftereffects of Cancer Surgery

I Am Free from the Aftereffects of Cancer Surgery

Deacon Nakyung Shin (3-32 Parish, 2-5 Women's Mission) In November, 2006 I felt weary both mentally and physically, and I started to have bloody stools and lost 1kg of weight a day. I was diagnosed with the 3rd stage of colon cancer. The doctor said even after the surgery, I had to receive post-surgical therapy 12 times. I thought I had strong patience but the anticancer treatment was hard to bear. I lost my hair and hours of injections made me feel nauseous and I couldn't eat well. I even thought I would die soon. With a desperate heart, I tried to find hope in God. Though I had looked at many churches seeking the Word of God, I wasn't fully satisfied. I went to Manmin Central Church led by my younger brother Hangchul Shin. There I could see many members giving testimonies after being healed and blessed. God says in Exodus 15:26, "I, the LORD, am your healer." Though I was sick, I kept attending Daniel Prayer Meetings and Manmin Prayer Center Healing Meetings every day and the Friday All-night Service every week. My younger brother picked me up with his car each time. Through the messages I realized that all diseases come from sins and I became certain of my healing when I repented and depended on God with faith. I stopped receiving anticancer treatment and tried to find the wall of sin between God and myself instead. One day in July the spirit of repentance came upon me. I thoroughly repented not having truly loved and forgiven others though I thought I knew a lot about the Word of God. I met Senior Pastor with my family and received his prayer. Through this, along with the assurance of my healing, I had joy and hoped even more to live by the Word as God's child. From that point on, I could lead a joyous life of faith with the assurance of believing that 'I am no longer sick because God healed me. I am strong.' And actually, I no longer had pain. I visited the hospital last March to be confirmed of my healing. Of course, it turned out that I was healed. Being healthy both in spirit and body, I am enjoying my second life working hard on my Job.

194-God Is the Source of My Design Work.

God Is the Source of My Design Work.

From the left Deacon Yang's wife Yangji Cho, Son Joonhyuk, Deacon Yang, Daughter Sujin Deacon Sungdae Yang is in charge of design works as an art director and designer at the art center of MBC (Munhwa Broadcasting Corporation). He has been working in this area over 25 years as well as in designing various stages and studios of educational and entertainment TV programs. He also designs exhibitions, art galleries and thematic parks. "After I realized that it is only God who gives me inspiration and ideas in my design work, I have fully relied on God. Since then, God helped to inspire me to come up with ideas for my designs from things around me." One day in 1991, while he was tied up with his work day and night, he dreamed a strange dream and saw himself lying dead in a white coffin. Shocked by this horrible dream, he attended a testimonial meeting with a Christian colleague of his who had been trying to convince him to attend his church. Meanwhile he looked for a church filled with grace and fervent prayers. Four years later, in 1995, when he attended the Daniel Prayer Meeting at Manmin Central Church for the first time, he thought, "This church is the exact church that I've been looking for." Some while later he found out that Dr. Jaerock Lee, the Senior Pastor, is the author of Tasting Eternal Life before Death. This is the testimonial book that had touched him deeply during a mission trip to Europe. He has served the church as a volunteer for the Manmin Design Mission and he has grown in his faith. He has designed the stages for various church events including Easter Cantatas, church anniversary celebration events and the oversees crusades. For him the 2002 India Healing Crusade titled the "2002 Miracle Healing Prayer Festival in India" which was attended by a total of more than 3 million people, was an unforgettable moment. "At Marina Beach, in Chennai, Tamil Nadu of India, I was looking around at the broad expanse of beach and thinking how I could build the stage for the crusade. I was inspired instantly and got an idea of the size and the form of the stage. When I showed the model of the stage to the Organizing Committee, they were speechless at the size and scale of it. I couldn't have imagined preparing for the proper stage design for the huge crowd unless God had inspired me and let me know it." He applied the word of God to his work. He kept walking on the right path and carefully listened to customers' opinions rather than to insist on his own. Then God led him to blessing after blessing. He was chosen as the chief designer for 2002 FIFA World Cup Evening Event and 2007 Interior Design for the KBS 21-hour Main News. In order to create an up-to-dated News Program's studio design, he had a special opportunity to such world-renowned broadcasting companies such as CNN, BBC, NBC, and NHK. Concerning all these things, he confesses, "Everything was by the grace of the Lord who added wisdom and inspiration to me. And all these things were God's blessing through which He has let me learn the world's foremost technology needed for His kingdom." And he also gave thanks to God for allowing by His love to his family, a peaceful and happy family life. Lastly, he confesses without hesitation that he is one of the most blessed people because he was led to this church filed with the word of life, and will be loved by God more and more.

193-[The Philippines] Melody Healed of Herpes Zoster

[The Philippines] Melody Healed of Herpes Zoster

Missionary Shine J. Lee (Manila Manmin Church) I saw Melody for the first time while visiting Isabella in the Philippines in the mid October last year. Melody, who was on an errand visiting her relatives, broke out in blisters all over her neck, shoulder and her chest. She said that blisters started to spread from her neck after taking a shower two days before. Though she took medication prescribed at the hospital, she got even worse and couldn't even go to school. I was so sorry thinking about her pain. After I prayed for her and sprayed Muan Sweet Water on the blistered areas, she said that the pain disappeared. Again, I visited her house, sprayed Muan Sweet Water and prayed with handkerchief on which Dr. Jaerock Lee had prayed. The blisters had immediately stopped spreading and couple of days later the blisters festered, I told Melody and her mother never to touch the skin to let it disappear naturally. After a while, crusts began to form over her skin and later as the crusts fell off, new fresh clean skin appeared. Melody gives thanks to God who healed her and she enjoys attending worship services. Also her family is grateful for her healing. The news of her healing was spread to neighbors who witnessed, so more and more people are coming to receive the prayer. Through this experience of God's power, I myself could get more strength and confidence in my ministry. a. Blister spread over the skin. b. Festering of the blisters c. Crusts formed over the skin d. The healing Melody received [Peru] Insomnia and Back Pain Had Completely Gone. Maria Nela Sarasar Natural (Peru Manmin Church) I am working as a nurse at the national hospital. Since my father passed away 14 years ago, I couldn't sleep as a result of the depression. Since then, I suffered from nightmares and depended on sleeping pills. What is worse, beginning about ten years ago, I suffered from pain with spondylo-arthritis. It was too painful to sit for a while or to lie in bed. The hospital had no special treatment other than just taking pain killers and Vitamins. With the acute pain I even thought, "What good is it for me to live?" In June, 2008, I was led by my sister and became a member of Peru Manmin Church. By the words of life preached by Dr. Jaerock Lee, darkness went away and I came to have hope for life. Peace and joy filled my heart and I was proud of being a Manmin member. One day in the mid July last year, Pastor Lazarus Lee came to visit me. When he prayed laying his hands on my back with the handkerchief of power, the pain disappeared. The following day I felt something strange on the way to the bathroom. Previously, I had a very hard time waking up and getting out of bed, but I was surprisingly walking without difficulty. In addition, last February I was healed of insomnia that I had suffered from for 14 years. One day while praying at the Daniel prayer meeting, I thought how faithless it was to keep taking sleeping pills. I repented to the Lord and sincerely prayed that I might sleep well without taking pills. On that very night I had this big experience that I could fall into sound sleep and no longer suffered from nightmares. Everything became normal and I am enjoying a happy and energetic life. [DR Congo] A Miracle occurred with a Child Who Was Born Deaf, Mute, and Suffering from Infantile Paralysis Pastor Peter Kim (Kinshasa Manmin church) I still vividly remember the patients giving testimonies at the 2009 DR Congo Crusade with Boknim Lee that was held in the Stadium of Martyrs from April 25th to 26th. Of the many testimonies from my church members, I was especially impressed by this testimony of a little child. David, who lives in a poor village called Miconga, had infantile paralysis since his birth, he was malnutrition and couldn't walk. He was born deaf and mute and couldn't hear or speak at all. His mother was heartbroken because of her son. Though she lived a distance of 30km from Kinshasa Manmin Church, she eagerly led her life of faith. The news about crusade was a light of hope to her. On April 26th, she brought her son to the Crusade and received handkerchief prayer at the altar from Boknim Lee. Then, a miraculous thing happened. David began to walk well and was able to imitate sounds! Through experiencing the almighty God, she could have more faith and put down her all concerns that she had about her son.

192-The Gift of Pregnancy Is Up to God Alone!

The Gift of Pregnancy Is Up to God Alone!

Deaconess Saeran Cho (2-19 Parish, 1-4 Women's mission) Three years ago, I had a miscarriage in which the placenta remained in me for a while. Once a pregnant woman experiences such a miscarriage, she has increased chance of future miscarriage or difficulty becoming pregnant. At that time, I was in a very difficult situation to have a baby. I was under physical and mental stress from my work place and I was experiencing back pain. So, I decided to commit everything to God. On November 28th 2008, I went to Senior Pastor Dr. Jaerock Lee to receive prayer because I wanted to become pregnant. Senior Pastor said, "It is hard to conceive when either husband or wife has something physically wrong with the body." Since I had seen many couples in the church become pregnant by the power of God, I sincerely prayed that God would make my body proper to have a baby. For about 100 days following the prayer, I passed urine that looked like the milky-colored water left over from washing rice. I rejoiced with an assurance that God was changing my body. I tried to find things that were pleasing to God and quit my job to fulfill my God-given duty as a cell leader. My husband also supported me in my decisions. I shook hands with senior pastor with a faith that I would surely receive an answer and glorified God. I was as happy as a cloud floating in the air and waited for God's answer with confident expectations. One day in April I felt something strange in my body. I went to the hospital with a hopeful heart for checkup and knew that I had become pregnant. Hallelujah! We give thanks for the grace of God who gave me the blessing of pregnancy.

191-My Left Ear Regained Hearing

My Left Ear Regained Hearing

Heungbok Lee (2 College Mission) I thought I had good faith before I came to Manmin Central Church. But, after I heard sermon titled with "The Measure of Faith" preached by Senior Pastor, I realized that I could only go to Paradise with my faith because I hadn't known about circumcision of heart at all. From that time on, I started to study the sermons in the weekly bulletin and tried to accomplish the word in heart by praying in the Daniel prayer meeting. One day I dreamt that I was sitting in front of the computer wearing a white shirt, and bugs came out of the monitor and stuck to my body. So I refrained from playing games on the internet and watching TV because enjoying them too much seemed displeasing to God. Since childhood, I had a problem that I couldn't discuss with anybody. I lost the sense of hearing in my left ear and could barely hear so I had to watch people's lips to understand what they said. What is worse, last October at the hospital I found out that the nerves in my left ear were inborn and dead. I offered vowed prayer and repeatedly received the Senior Pastor's prayer for the sick through the TV screen while laying my hands on my ear. Last March 31st after preparing with prayers and offerings, I received prayer directly from Senior Pastor. I started to feel something stinging in my ear and then, I began to hear a big sound. Hallelujah!

190-[Zoom in] My Life Changed by the Lord

[Zoom in] My Life Changed by the Lord

Deacon Changjin Kim (Vice President of Men's mission of Eastern Kwangju Manmin Church) When I ran a pet center, everything seemed to go well. But in 2003, I faced unexpected difficulty after I expanded my business. It was quite a shock to me because I had never thought that I would fall into failure and despair. I became addicted to liquor. I suffered from trembling of my hands. I abandoned my family and wandered outdoors. Quarreling with my wife didn't seem to stop. She often ran away to her family in Kwangju City. I was becoming a decadent man falling into women, drinking and gambling. Finally, my wife decided to divorce me and left with my son. I was left penniless and living without any hope. Looking back on my past days I regretted it. One day I really missed my wife and my son. "It's me. How have you been?" "I've been good and how are you?" I called my wife with a desperate heart. It was like catching at straws. But her voice was unexpectedly kind and sweet. She suggested to me that we start a new life again just because of our son. She also said she had been waiting for my call praying after she started her life of faith in Eastern Kwangju Manmin Church. At that time I had no hope and no place to stay, and I went straight to my wife's home in the Kwangju City. And I started attending the church and listening to the messages of Dr. Jaerock Lee. His messages I heard through the satellite service were strong enough to change my soul. While praying every day, I regretted again and again having led a selfish life. I quitted drinking and smoking and stopped meeting with my friends outside the church. My family members just looked lovely to me now though before they seemed to be a burden to me. Meanwhile, I came to have a wish to live in heaven with my family. I had no proper job and met with financial difficulties, but I gave thanks for the grace of God who changed me. No matter what the circumstances, I acted with patience and with joy and thanks. I looked at everything through the eyes of faith. The alcoholic addiction and the tremors of the hands were already gone. In July 2007, I entered the Kwangju City branch agency of the Seoul Joong-Ang Insurance Company. I took the right path in everything and considering the company and customers ahead of my own benefits I tried to obey the word of God whether it was little or great. Now I am in abundant material blessing by God's grace. I give thanks and glory to God and the Lord, and I appreciate Senior Pastor Dr. Jaerock Lee who has led me to become a worker of God through the word of life.

189-Healed of Acute Peritonitis through Prayer

Healed of Acute Peritonitis through Prayer

Bro. Myungjin Shin (Masan Manmin Church) On the morning of March 3, 2009, I started to feel discomfort in my abdomen. I tried to vomit several times in the bathroom but it didn't get better. Later, I had severe pain and I couldn't straighten up my back. That evening, I felt intense pain like my belly was about to burst. My face turned pale and sweat was running down my back. I received Senior Pastor Dr. Jaerock Lee's prayer recorded in ARS (Automatic telephonic Response System) and drank Muan sweet water. Then the pain started to go away and I was able to fall into a sound sleep. On March 5, at the medical checkup I was diagnosed with acute peritonitis. The doctor said I could die if I don't receive a surgery immediately. But I came to Seoul on March 6 and told Dr. Lee about symptoms and received his prayer. After the prayer, I started to feel comfortable in the abdomen and could straighten my back. And I relieved myself at the restroom and each time I vomited something green came out. Then, I felt better and better. Two days later, I started to eat rice porridge and my body recovered. I repented of my lukewarm faith. As I repented and had more faith, God gradually let me recover my health. I kept on fasting and praying and relied on God. I had peace in my heart and the abdominal pain had completely gone. On April 10, the doctor said that my appendix had burst because a stone blocked a small hole between caecum and large intestines, but now the stone and caecum were gone. The doctor said, "I don't know if it is because of the prayer or because you are young. Anyway, you are a lucky man!" I give glory to God who healed me of acute peritonitis without surgery. Acute peritonitis and abscess stagnating around it (Before the prayer)

How do I study so well? The secret is in God.

Sis. Suyun Kim is in the 2nd grade of Daegu Bumil Middle School and attends Daegue Manmin Church. Recently she enjoys going to school and is happy with her class. "Previously, I was far from studying well. Especially, I used to get terrible scores on English and Math tests." One Sunday while listening to the sermon, she felt the heart of the Lord who feels sorry about students falling into the world, and she decided to change. "As I realized the love of the Lord, I thought I had to please Him. I tried to be serious in my classes. The grade points didn't go up immediately. I tried my best to attend the service in truth and in spirit and kept praying. I went over what I learned at school instead of the Internet and enjoying TV." On March 31, I received prayer from Senior Pastor with the wish to become an honor student, and at that moment, I had confidence that was deep in my heart. I concentrated better and difficult subjects had become easier. And I could score over 90 on the Quiz tests that I had on a monthly basis. The more surprising thing was that I got 90 and 95 on the English and the math tests, even though I failed both of them on the previous mid-term test. She confesses that she is also surprised to see herself sitting at her desk whenever she has time. She says, "I wish for many students to receive the same blessing as I have received."

187-l India l I Am Happy to Get away from the Bondage of Darkness

l India l I Am Happy to Get away from the Bondage of Darkness Joshua (Chennai Manmin Church, India) I suffered from heart disease and also was possessed by a demon. But no one recognized it because I was always silent. But beginning 4 years ago, the demon inside me became violent. It caused me to torment my family with such wild behaviors and I couldn't stay at home even a short while. I often ran away to the public cemetery and spent the night there. When the symptoms got worse I even imitated the sound of frogs, monkeys and snakes. So my family had to lock me in a room. The suffering of my family was indescribable. They had to lock me in a room and they had to tie me up with a rope whenever they took me outside. Pastor Joseph Han, ministering Chennai Manmin Church, told my family that we had to find the original problem and then repent and solve it. My family prayed with fasting. One day Pastor Han visited me with church members and prayed for me. I collapsed and the pastor asked the demon how he came into me. The demon replied "I came from the tree standing between this man's parents' house and the land of their neighbor Sakuma. I came to take this man's life away and this is the seventh time I entered into him." This was the reply of the demon inside me. Actually, Sakuma was my parents' neighbor and they had a bad relationship because of a land problem. He is engaged in black magic, and he engraved the first son's name on a bronze tablet and buried it under a tree with a dead baby's hand. The following day, I collapsed again and said as follows. "Two meters below the first tree is a jar that contains the copper plate." After my mother knew this fact, she went there and tried to pull out the tree. Then a voice was heard from inside the tree. "Go away, Go away!" People around her were scared but she didn't hesitate to put fire on it and burned the entire tree. Thus, the original problem was solved. A few days later my family brought me to Chennai Manmin Church and we attended Friday all night service through GCN. Following the message, Dr. Jaerock Lee prayed for the sick. An unbelievable thing happened to me. Everything returned to normal the violent behavior stopped and the heart disease had gone as well. Hallelujah! l USA l Ruptured Achilles Tendon Was Healed Nelya Karabara (Medical Doctor, Richland, New Jersey) I fell down on the street and sprained my ankle. Due to the unendurable pain I was unable to walk and couldn't even stand for a moment. And then the ankle turned black and started to swell. And I noticed that it was a rupture of the Achilles tendon. But rather than depending on medicine I decided to rely on God. That evening I attended the seminar led by Dr. Vitaliy Fishberg with the help of my two friends. After the seminar Dr. Vitaliy Fishberg prayed for me with the handkerchief that Dr. Jaerock Lee had prayed on. At that moment the pain was gone and the injured part trembled. I felt like my leg was burning with fire and with electricity! When I woke up Sunday morning, all symptoms were gone! I even could come to church in shoes. I had clear assurance of the divine supernatural power of God and His love for me. I had even more enthusiasm toward God and the Lord after reading Dr. Lee's book 'Heaven I.' I give thanks to Dr. Jaerock Lee and give all the glory to God and the Lord. l Belgium l WCDN, Overflowing Evidences of God's Power Pastor Hugo Van (The church of God's Ambassador) Twenty-one years ago, I was sentenced to death with an incurable disease. It was cancer. I eagerly looked for churches where healing was taking place but it was not easy. However I didn't get disappointed and kept holding on to God and was healed by faith. Later in 2005, I established the healing school with some doctors who had the same thoughts that I had. Meanwhile, I attended the fifth International Christian Medical Conference held under auspice of WCDN in Norway in 2008. People were testifying to the living God with clear evidences of God's power. I was quite impressed to hear the healing cases because I was eagerly looking for a healing ministry organization. On the first night of the conference I read Dr. Jaerock Lee's books "My life My Faith" and "God the Healer." It was a big blessing to me. I wish to cooperate in Dr. Lee's ministry and WCDN to spread love of God toward Belgium and all of Europe. What Is Happening in New York Manmin International Church? At the Home Coming Day meeting held on March 29, 2009, many healing works took place. And here is a special testimony of a 5 year old girl named Chelsy Lacarrie who was healed of a problem with her eyes. Chelsy was born with cerebral palsy and her limbs were paralyzed. Both of her eyes had a fearful squint so that she couldn't see anything properly because each of her two eyes was looking in totally different directions. One day the TV was broken so that Chelsy's mother, Jennifer, could only watch one channel and it was channel 17, GCN. She was deeply impressed by Dr. Lee's messages. She heard there is a branch church in New York and visited the church. After that she read Dr. Lee's books 'The Measure of Faith', 'Heaven I,' and 'The Law of God'. She repented with tears. She decided to keep the Sabbath and give the whole tithe. At the handkerchief meeting, her daughter received the prayer and her eye became normal and she could look in the same direction with both of her two eyes.

And when I had a difficult question while taking a math test, I prayed as King Solomon did that God might give me wisdom. Then I could think of the answer to the question. And finally I got a score of 100 on that test. After he started reading the Bible he has tried to live by the words and he could pray in more detail than before.

185-Led to the Happiness after Healing of Lung and Lymph Tuberculosis

Led to the Happiness after Healing of Lung and Lymph Tuberculosis

- Deacon Injoon Chun (1-3 Canaan Mission; Dramax Cable Broadcasting) It all began when I was in charge of designing programs working in OAP (On-Air Promotion) team at a Cable TV Company. I was getting tired of working overnight and following an irregular schedule. The workload was huge and I often became overstressed. Eventually I began to skip Daniel Prayer Meetings and my God-given duties in the church were becoming a big burden. One day in August 2007, I found lumps around my neck which were as big as a grape. At first I didn't realize it was a big problem, but later it got worse and I had to go to hospital for a medical test. And I was diagnosed with lymph tuberculosis. The doctor recommended a medication treatment. After I came back home I thought that there must be a clear reason for not having been protected as a child of God and I looked back on myself. I repented that I ceased to pray because I was busy at work. I repented neglecting my God-given duties and my love for the worldly things. As soon as I received the prayer from Dr. Jaerock Lee, the swelling receded. But still I couldn't cast off all things that I loved. I couldn't overcome my desires with my willpower, but God gave me the strength to win over this world. Also when I asked Him in prayers, God gave me comfort and grace from above. As I came to have the hope for New Jerusalem, the most glorious place in heaven, and I desired to take after the heart of the Lord, I could bear better fruit in my workplace. I also tried to please God by praying for and visiting the members and doing volunteer works in the church. My body got well to the point that I no longer felt uncomfortable. But in order to have my disease perfectly healed, I added my name to the patients list for the Special Divine Healing Meeting held in November, 2008. I was certain of my healing at the moment Senior Pastor prayed for me. I went to hospital and my body was found perfectly clean. Hallelujah! I give all the thanks and glory to God who healed my disease and blessed me in my work place.

184-What Happened after the Collision with the 5-ton Truck?

What Happened after the Collision with the 5-ton Truck?

- Deacon Hyosu Han(2-2 Men's Mission) Deacons Hyosu Han and Byunghwa Lim On March 13, 2009 I was driving on a highway for business with my partner Byunghwa Lim. The road was all right until we passed the tunnel on the Young Dong highway. As soon as we came out of the tunnel, the road was icy and my car lost its traction and slid into a huge truck in the next lane. I stepped on the brake pedal to slow down, but the wheels and the brake didn't work. The car crashed into the truck and changed direction and we had a second collision sliding into the guard-rail and I finally managed to stop. The car was totally damaged and had to be scrapped. And amazingly even after the accident, neither of us had scratches and bruises on our body. The police arrived at the scene and were surprised to see us not injured at all. We give thanks to God and the Lord who protected us in this deadly accident.

183-I Dreamt that I Was Thrown into a Lake of Fire

I Dreamt that I Was Thrown into a Lake of Fire

- Hyungbae Park (1-1 Canaan Mission) I came to read about the horror of hell in the book 'Hell' my mother had given me before I enlisted in the military. While serving in the military, I had a dream. In the dream I was pursuing all worldly pleasures. Then I saw a heavenly door open and the Lord come down. All of a sudden, I was standing before the Judgment and everything that I had done was revealed on the sea of glass before the throne of God. There was no good works by which I could be given salvation. God said to me, "You must go to Hell." I was then thrown into Hell. I woke up, very surprised. And I fell back to sleep. In the second dream I was back again in Hell. I cried and cried asking for help. At that very moment, Senior Pastor Dr. Jaerock Lee appeared to me surrounded by dazzling light, and, stretching out his hand, he said to me, "The Father gave you another chance." Could it be that God heard the prayer and saw the tears of the shepherd who doesn't want to lose even one soul? As soon as I woke up, I shed tears and prayed a prayer of thanksgiving. From that time on, my faith has been totally changed. I wish for many people to also know the horror of Hell and reach salvation through the book "Hell." From the Book Reviews at Amazon.com, A World Top Internet Bookstore The Book that Causes the Readers to Realize the Importance of Salvation Dr. Jaerock Lee doesn't want people to find out about Hell after they die. The book "Hell" is based upon the Bible and explains the degrees and torments of Hell. The author says, "The saddest fact is there are people who believe in God but still love this world without the hope for heaven and they keep committing sins not knowing the horrors of Hell." This book describes the horror of hell in considerable detail. I believe this book will save many souls from Hell. The great gift and warning of God to mankind, the book "Hell" is surely worth reading and this book is highly recommended to religious organization.
