God keeps us alive so that we do not die prematurely:
Lord, You have brought up my soul from the grave; You have kept me alive, that I should not go down to the pit.
Psalms 30:3

Ankylosing Spondylitis
I got Ankylosing Spondylitis when I was 35 years old. Every time I got up in the morning, I was stiff and sore in my back. Therefore, I had to find myself a job that was more gentle on the back pain, for the disease got worse over the years. X-rays from the hospital in Drammen showed that I had Ankylosing Spondylitis. Three doctors confirmed the same. A few years ago, you spoke at some meetings in Drammen. I went there and received prayer from you. While you prayed, I felt warmth in my back. I was instantly healed! Some time later, I had another check-up. A doctor looked at the X-rays and said, “I cannot see anything on the images that suggests you have Ankylosing Spondylitis.” He was amazed and had no explanation for my healing. Unfortunately, I did not tell him the reason for my healing. I am now 61 years old and have been healthy since you prayed for me 20 years ago.
Nearly Blind – Regained My Sight
In 2007, I got diabetes type 2. My blood sugar was once up to 27. I had to stop eating cakes and other sweets. My vision got worse and worse. In the end, I had only peripheral vision. At this time, I worked at a factory in Sandnes that, among other things, makes screws. Good eyesight was required here. At the factory, I used to make screws on a lathe. Since my eyesight had become so poor, I could no longer do it. The factory gave me a job as a cleaner instead.
