About 28 years ago, sores developed inside my mouth. At first I did not pay much attention to them as I thought the sores would pass, but still they persisted and steadily became worse.
After some time, I entered the hospital for examination and treatment. Even with the treatment my mouth was not healed. Every time I ate any food, the pain in my mouth was excruciating. I felt so sorry for those of my family who constantly had to care for me that I wanted to die. I began to wander from hospital to hospital seeking some way to cure this dreadful disease.
Many skills of medicine were tried, but no one could cure my disease. During my wandering from hospital to hospital, I spent all my money and had to sell all my property to pay the medical expenses. I gave up all hope of living and hated myself and this disease that was destroying my life. Weeping and writhing in agony and pain, I waited for death to relieve me of this misery. During this time, many of my Christian friends advised me to come to church and trust in Christ, but I doubted the power of God. How could a God that I could not see heal me of a sickness that all medical science had no cure for?
Finally, after much persuasion, because I knew. I was dying I ventured out to the prayer mountain. As I stayed there, my doubts began to fade. I listened to many testimonies from different ones of how God healed them of all types of diseases. The desire to seek God with fasting and prayer became so intense that I could not resist any longer and decided to fast for nine
days.
As I began to fast, I confessed all my sins of the past. I came unprepared to meet the Lord but He loved me, called me, and met me as I prayed. On the third day the unhealthy flesh inside my mouth began to fall off, and
the pain began to disappear. All the sores were completely healed as I fasted and prayed.
Although I did not know before that God was living, I met Him personally and experienced His power in my
life. As I fasted and prayed, God completely healed me. I know that Jesus is the Physician that is above every physician. I give all glory and praise to God.
