On April 27, 2024, I paid a visit to Muan Manmin Church along with my parish fellows. We celebrated a maundy service there and when I dipped my feet into the Muan sweet water, I felt like a fragrance of mint was flashing through from the tiptoes to the tope of the head. ...
"I was dying of AIDS, but I am healthy through handkerchief prayer!"
I used to indulge myself in drinking, smoking, women, and other worldly things. From a certain moment in time I felt weak and there were problems in my body. My skin became dry and even peeled off. I lost my appetite and had a hard time walking.
In June 2018, my family took me to a hospital to be diagnosed, and I was diagnosed with 3rd stage AIDS. I took medicine but the conditions only deteriorated. The people in my town urged me to go to the hospital again, because I was like a living corpse. They found out I had TB in my lungs as well. I lost weight to a point that I couldn't do any activity and I had difficulty just breathing.
My family was very concerned and felt very sorry for me. My sister Deborah urged me to go to church to repent and receive salvation as well as healing. She took care of me every day and suggested I receive prayer of the senior pastor Rev. Jaerock Lee, so that I could be healed. Finally, with the help of my family members I came to Nairobi Manmin Church and attended the worship service.
July 2018 was the time when I first went to church. I could feel the love among the members in addition to receiving the teaching of the truth of God's word. Also, my sister Deborah asked me to read the senior pastor's book The Message of the Cross. I was touched by the book very much. For my healing, my father prayed and Deborah fasted a day every week, repenting on my behalf.
In the early August, Deborah suggested I partake in the summer retreat. It was hard for me just to walk, but I went to the church by her help and watched the GCN TV live broadcast of summer retreat that was going on in South Korea. The speaker, Pastor Soojin Lee prayed for the whole congregation with the handkerchief on which the senior pastor had prayed, and so many people were healed and gave their testimonies. I was moved very much.
I also had faith that I could be healed, too. But then, immediately, I felt very light and I couldn't feel anything heavy or hard in my body. Since then, I recovered day after day, and now I can walk fine. I can even do the house chores such as cooking and washing clothes. Hallelujah!
Now, I got my appetite back and my body weight is normal. I give all thanks and glory to God the Father who has given me a new life both in body and spirit by healing me of an incurable disease.
