Faith is the hand to take the miracles to the earth!
John was with Thomas in that morning in their rent house in Pugeran Jogjakarta. It was about 10 o’clock in the morning, May 23rd 1999. His other sons, Jacob, Moses and Steve were in the campus not far from the house. John just finished his morning prayer as usual. He sat on the sofa having a little talk to Thomas with a cigarette on his hand. The ashtray was full of butts.
Suddenly, Thomas started to cough hardly and stop breathing. His body was stiff and got convulsive movement. He fell down and fainted on the floor…with hardly breathe! John who sat close to him, strangely not began to be panic. He just knelt down and started to pray for Thomas’ healing. First minute nothing happened...third…fifth…Thomas still fainted with short-winded. John kept praying...praying…and praying. It was so silence moment, only heard the sounds of John’s prayer and his son’s hardly breathe. John kept his faith up…my son must be healed!
“Thomas, wake up…wake up!” cried John. He shook Thomas’ body many times. Then…Thomas opened his eyes…”What happened?” he asked confusedly. “Come on, lets start to give thanks to the Lord…you were losing your breath and almost die!” John explained to him.
Thomas and John will never forget the time God had made the miracle to their lives…
This faith’s hand also brought miracle to Maria, John’s wife.
Someday, Maria had a very bad toothache. She couldn’t eat, talked nor even did her routine activities. She started screaming…cried…she just lied down on the bed. She did take pain killers pill, but nothing happened. She cried…cried loudly worried her families. Steve, her youngest son then asked John to pray together for the healing. “We have faith and Words to be confessed to heal mom!” he urged John. Then they both circling Maria and started to pray. “With His stripes, you’d healed, in the name of Jesus!” then something did happened….Maria stopped crying…and they thanked God for the healing.
Faith won’t loosen its hand to bring miracles if we just believe!
