On one occasion, Jesus forgives a sick man before healing him:
But that you may know that the Son of Man has power on earth to forgive sins—He said to the paralytic—I say to you, arise, take up your bed, and go to your house. And immediately he arose, took up the bed, and went out in the presence of them all, so that all were amazed and glorified God, saying, “We never saw anything like this.”
Mark 2:10–12 (NKJV)
Testimony
Colic
My grandchild had colic a few months ago. The doctors couldn’t help. Then I decided to call you for prayer. By the evening of the same day, the child was healed of colic. Since then, he has been well.
Severe Shoulder Problem
In 2003, you held meetings in Vardø. For three years, I had suffered from a severe shoulder problem. A tendon in one shoulder had become stuck inside the shoulder. It happened after I twisted my arm incorrectly. My doctor did not recommend surgery. He couldn’t guarantee that the procedure would be successful. The shoulder problem caused a lot of pain. Moreover, I could hardly use my arm for anything. I couldn’t scratch my back or lift my arm over my head. Nor could I comb my hair. My husband had to do that for me. At the meeting in Vardø, you prayed for me. I felt numbness in my arm. Shortly after you prayed, there was a pop in the shoulder. To me, it sounded like a gunshot. After this experience, I have had a healthy shoulder. Now I knit and sew, comb my hair, and can lift my hand over my head. What the doctors couldn’t do, God did for me.
