My Testimony, by Deborah Taylor (the reader’s digest version)

1. In 2005, my husband left me for his boss’ 20 year old daughter who was 9 mo. Pregnant. Believe it or not, that was good news. I had just transferred from the Building & Planning Dept. to the DA’s office, with a pay increase. So, thank God for the increase & for taking out the trash! I knew God heard my prayers & delivered me from “the evil man”.

   Six weeks later I was in a freak skiing accident. All I remember is waking up with excruciating pain 24/7 and begging God to put me out of my misery. I was in & out of many hospitals for a year and then in & out of surgery for two years. I had 25 nerve blocks. I heard every bad report you can imagine, like you may never walk, or stand or sit again, you may lose your right arm & hand, we may have to amputate. Then I was diagnosed with Regional Sympathetic Dystrophy (RSD). One surgeon told me to “Pray that you will ever be able to use this extremity again”. I had a wrist jack fixator on my right arm & hand, but my hand was inverted because of the way I fell. When they put the nails into my hand, the nails wouldn’t go where they were supposed to because the bone on the outside of the wrist was too fractured, but there was so much nerve damage that I had to wait another year just to have those bones removed. It got so bad that eventually I had to get the same whirlpool water therapy that they give burn victims. The skin turned black, died & came off. You can look at my right hand & fingers & see they are smaller than my left. My arm, hand & fingers swelled, turned black like burnt hot dogs on a grill & the skin died, just like when a person is burnt 100%. It was absolute worst case scenario.

   Then I spent the next two years in physical therapy, pain management therapy, seeing specialists, surgeons, etc. Needless to say I was in excruciating pain for the next few years and all I could do was beg God to take the pain away or take me home. He did neither. For reasons known only to HIM, I had to suffer, but He showed up to go through it with me. I even caught pneumonia twice through all of this & had to be put on a respirator for weeks.

   During all of this, I lost my job, my health insurance, my car, my rental home, everything. But, God did supernatural miracles & used so many angels unawares to help me, feed me, drive me to doctors, etc. He even had total strangers donate their sick time, vacation time & personal leave so I would continue to get a paycheck. But, even that only lasted so long. I found out later that the DA had actually gone before the Board of Supervisors to request they hold my position open an extra year and they approved it. They were only required to hold a job open for one year when an employee goes out on disability. But it was obvious that I wasn’t returning any time soon, if ever.

   Next I was being evicted. I had nowhere to go, but God sent strangers to my door to take me home, take care of me, take me to my physical therapy, pain management appointments, etc. It took two years before I could even apply for disability, even though the doctors told me I would remain totally & permanently disabled.

   After two years I finally began to receive a disability check, was able to start from scratch, I mean scratch, get an apartment, etc. He supernaturally provided for me, he used strangers to bring me furniture, etc. I may have eaten peanut butter w/no jelly, but He kept me healthy & alive.

   Finally, after 4 years, He took the pain away. I was healed. I thought I was gonna live in pain forever. I spent the next two years just praising God for taking the pain away and recovering from all the trauma.

   Then, all of a sudden, I got a noticeable lump in my throat. I went to one doctor who referred me to an ear, nose & throat doctor, I had needles put in my throat & was told I had throat cancer. A surgeon told me that I needed to be put back into the hospital immediately. He put his finger on my throat under my right ear & told me he was gonna have to cut me from “here to here”, moving his finger from under one ear over my throat to under the other ear. I told him I rejected his report & I wanted a second opinion. He didn’t like that. I actually walked out of his office, ran down the hall to the ladies room & sat there on the floor crying out to God. I had to wait a few weeks to see a plastic surgeon and I prayed & stood on THE WORD & BY HIS STRIPES I AM HEALED & I became a general in spiritual warfare & I resisted the devil till he had to flee! I refused, rejected & stood firm! I refused to even entertain the thought for one moment or let fear into my mind for one second! Praise God, when I finally saw the plastic surgeon, he took tests & told me I did not have cancer. I was healed, AGAIN!!! The devil is a liar, a toothless, barking dog on a short leash, and he has to get God’s permission to do anything, like with Job.

   I used to think about how unfair it seemed that I had to go through this all by myself, I had nobody that loved me or cared for me, nobody BUT GOD!! . I needed so much help. It was not easy letting strangers help me. I’m a very private person. That was the most frustrating part of the entire ordeal. I know now He wanted me to trust HIM only & I didn’t really have a choice.

   But now I praise God for making me go through the fire, the flood, the pain, the suffering, the torment, the loneliness, the trauma, the heartache, the humiliation, the loss, the lack, the frustration, etc, all by myself. He showed me that HE ALONE is my healer, provider, deliverer, protector, mother, father, brother, sister, husband, priest, prophet, King, judge, my EVERYTHING!!

   It is written in 2 Corinthians 1.4– HE Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God.

   I know that God allowed me to endure all of those things, so that someday I could comfort someone else that may be suffering. I also know that nothing we go through is wasted. There is a reason for everything. I pray that my testimony is a comfort to anybody who hears it, reads it or hears about it. No matter what you are going through, no matter who breaks your heart or betrays you, no matter what losses you may suffer, no matter what trials you must endure, no matter what attacks may come against you, with God all things are possible. He will never leave you or forsake you.

   Blessings,
   Deborah Taylor

   Hi there to everyone reading this.
   I have a story I would love to share, in case anyone else has had the same experience and is scared like I was when it first happened.

   I was 18 years old, (I’m 43 now). My Dad had just passed away from Alcoholism and Diabetes. He was abusive, and there was a lot of negative energy in our home. There were strange things that would happen to us, things that really terrified me at the time. My Mother had several occurrences months before mine started. At first she thought she was having strokes, but then began to realize it was evil spirits. She would be lying in bed when all of a sudden, something would jump on top of her( she thought it was the cat) and then she would be paralyzed, unable to move or speak. This went on for a while. She would see shadows on the wall and see little demons on her pillow. She would tell me, and even though I thought she was crazy-it scared the crap out of me!

   The night of my Dads funeral, it started happening to me. It’s as if something has completely engulfed you in evil. Very terrifying to an 18 year old girl. I was told to rebuke it in in the name of Jesus. When I did this, it didn’t seem to help.

   I have had vivid visions of Satan to where I would wake up screaming. This has gone on for several years. Now when this happens, I scoot close to my husband and hang on for dear life, because it actually tries to pull me off the bed! I always wonder what would happen if it succeeded! But Jesus protects me, and won’t let it win. For years I would be in denial, and try to forget about it, or wonder why this was happening to me, when I was a christian and loved Jesus.

   Recently, I found the Joseph Plan Website, and came to the realization after completing the Spiritual Warfare Study, that the Devil had strongholds on my life that must be broken. I spent days pleading the blood of Jesus, and repenting. It would stop for a while, but then I realized that the thing that has had a stronghold on me all of my life, passed down from my father, was alcohol.

   Even though I only drank a few times a week, and it didn’t cause any real problems in my life, Satan was using it as a tool to destroy me. If I didn’t stop, I would be passing alcoholism and these attacks onto my children. That in itself terrified and devastated me. I had to stop. But I had tried so many times and couldn’t.

   I prayed the powerful prayers in the Spiritual Warfare Manual. Pleading the blood of Jesus, the Deliverance Prayer, and the prayer that will free you and your children from curses passed down from ancestors. I find that if I drink, it takes me out of the Holy Spirit and away from His protection, and the attacks start up again.

   This study has helped me so much, and I am so thankful the Lord directed me here. If this is happening to you, do not fear, the Lord WILL protect you! But you must pray for God to release you from any strongholds and bondage that Satan has over you. Even though I have always been a christian, alcohol was separating me from God, and keeping me from the life He had for me.

   I realize now that by being obedient, I am opening up my life up for so many blessings: peace and joy I have never known!

   Thanks for listening. May God bless and protect you.

   In His love,
   Melinda

   I already purchased this book and I thank you.
   I now know my Holy birthright does not include anxiety.
   In fact I am called “to be anxious for nothing”.
   My Lord paid the ultimate price for me!

   I have moved beyond the bondage of sin and fear and
   moved Into a state of Grace with Jesus. Hallelujah!

   I have now begun a study course for prayer counseling,
   assisting others to gain a new freedom also. Thank to The Joseph Plan.

   I have wallowed in bondage of sin for years, despite being
   Born Again . The devil kept me feeling an awareness of sin
   For nearly 50 years. I urge anyone who feels that God could
   Never forgive then, to read Breaking the Bondage of Fear.

   Do the work, clean out your closet, ask God to reveal all the
   Things that you cannot remember. This way you get to wipe your
   Slate clean by the cleansing blood of Jesus.

   God Bless,
   Sister Alison Pountney,
   An island off of New Zealand

   Pastor Holm , I have a testimony from just last week, that blew my mind and that of my Doctor and his medical staff.

   For years I,ve been battling endometroisis, there is no cure for this disease. It’s something that women have to live with and hope it don’t turn to cancer. Well two years ago the doctor found a large tumor in my uterus , the uterus was abnormal , it was cancerous. The doctor removed the tumor said there was a slit in the tumor and some of the cancer cell had xscaped, so they put me on this pill for two years. But I could only take it one year , because my insurance stopped paying for it , so I was whole year with out it. Three month ago I started to have the sign again. I went to my doctor and he ran tests and the tests showed the endometroisis, has returned.

   So because of my hew insurance he had to make another app, to do the ultrasound and took pictures. II went in to his office for confirmation about what the new tests showed and what treatment needed to be done. He came in and had the excited look and shocking look on his face, like he saw something he couldn’t explain. He told me the endometroisis is gone and that my uterus is normal. He said it was God ! He pointed up to heaven and kept saying it was God Polly and that he hadwitnesssed a healing miracle, cause there is no cure for Endometroisis.

   He has the pictures and tests of before and after , even his medical staff was blown away. They couldn’t explain the healing all of sudden. They were all in great amazing and looking up knowing that there is a supernatural healing and that its the power of the blood of Jesus and God. He said God is healing my body cause I was on bunch of meds for over 30 years. But the insurance co, stopped paying there part , so I was with out any meds for all the illness I had.

   I told God long time ago it up to him if I get healed and II told him I was tired of taking all these pills! I told him I know you are the healer, cause your words in the bible says so! I believe in Jesus 100 %, I believe in God the father 100%, The holy spirit 100%, I told God its his choice to heal or not to, I trusted Him ! I prayed the Blood prayer of Jesus over my body for a month and God listened. I will praise his name forever and ever! Thank you pastor Holm for sending me the prayer.
