MY SISTER WAS INSTANTLY HEALED OF 10 YEARS MENTAL ILLNESS. Written in short form. - God did sent people on my way and I could hardly believe what I heard, saw and experienced. I heard the Gospel as I never have heard it before... That same evening my life was totally changed and so was that of my mentally ill sister. I thought I was having a nightmare or such... but it became reality in a matter of days and ever after. - A elder of a local church suggested me to contact a particular family, who lived just down the road. But, he said not to pay too much attention to the man of the house... he believed in miracles and so forth.... Oooh... Aha... That did draw my attention! I thought maybe this miracle believing man has something to offer me! I will call him John. I got all my courage together and paid these people a visit. The very first night John told me about his own life; what all happened to him during the war; that he had betrayed his own people; how God met him when he was working for the enemy, the NSB. He told me how God had opened his eyes and showed him all his wrongdoings. Then he realized he needed forgiveness and turned himself in at the Dutch Government. - John was just beaming while he was telling me about the treasure he had found in Jesus, the happiness and peace of mind, knowing that his sins were forgiven. I had never heard a testimony like this. I also knew that this man was not making up some sort of a story. This was for real and I could sense a deep truth in it. - I was all ear and soaked every word in like a sponge. It all did sound like music, beautiful music, what my soul had been thirsting for. I felt right away, that it was exactly what I needed. I envied John for his faith and he told me, if I just would believe in Jesus as my Savior, He would give me faith too. - I started to forget my own problems and my attention was drawn to my oldest sister, who had been suffering from some sort of mental disorder, shortly after the World War 2. For the past 10 years she had been in and out the mental institutions, receiving terrible treatments, such as 24 electric shocks. If you just knew what that meant in those early days. - I told John all about her and I was wondering why God had not healed her. John replied: Did anyone pray for her healing or deliverance? I could not tell, but I knew that sometimes deacons from the church had visited, but as far as I knew the subject of Marias sickness was never touched. - How could Maria receive healing when nobody believed, was my question. John explained, that if I brought her in faith to the Lord, He would heal her. He said: When Jesus walked on the earth, He healed all who came to Him and the Bible says that All things are possible for them that believe. If the Lord would not keep His Word, how could we be sure of our Salvation? - In the mean time I did do some arithmetic: 2+2=4, nobody can change that, so it is with the Scripture. Jesus is the same, yesterday, today and forever. He healed then, so He heals now. - I thought for a while... I have to give my will to Him, then He will bring it to pass. Well, my life was already a mess anyway, to be a fool again would not hurt. That RISK could mean my sisters healing. So, I said to John: If the Lord is going to heal my sister on that condition, then I will follow Him. - It was 10 Oclock that night when I went to my apartment, which was only a couple of houses down from Johns home. Of course, John went right down on his knees to call upon the Lord, little did I know. When I came in my apartment, a very special feeling came over me. I experienced a lightness, as if a heavy weight was taken of my shoulders. - All of a sudden I felt in my heart, that something had happened. I opened my curtains and looked at the dark sky. I do not know how to explain it, but I said out loud: Lord I do not understand where you are, but I know You just healed my sister. Lord, I dont know it with my understanding, but I feel it in my heart that it is true. - I was so certain that it had happened, that I wrote a letter to my parents that same night and put it in the postbox at the corner of the street. Now, isnt this a little bit foolishness? You would nearly think so, wouldnt you ! The next day I became a little worried and I had to find a place to pray at my job. Lord, I said, I wrote in that letter to my parents that Jesus had healed Maria, I dont care if they call me crazy, but I have used Your name in that letter. You put that certainty of Marias healing in my heart, please, now confirm it in Jesus Name. - Of course, the Lord had healed her, so much so that Maria gained 20 lbs within 2 weeks. This was also the doctors observation time before they sent her home. What had happened that night when I visited John? My sister who was in a private cell (room), had asked the nurse for a pail of soapy water and a mop, because she did find it quite dirty - and it probably was. The nurse could not believe her ears and asked Maria what she was saying. The request was repeated, and the nurse provided the pail, water and mop. Next, Maria started to wash the floor, while the nurse was looking on. She went down the hall, the stairs etc. with the nurse following. Anyway, my sister did not even realize that she was a patient, she thought she was housekeeping staff. Before she became institutionalized she worked in a nursing home in that capacity. Marias healing started to take place as soon as I walked through Johns front door. HALLELUJAH ! WHAT A WONDERFUL GOD WE HAVE. He answers even before we ask. - After two weeks my parents could take her home and of course they brought Maria first to my apartment. My sister responded in a normal fashion, she liked my room and the view from my window. It seemed such a long time since Ive heard her speak a normal sentence. I started to cry and so did my parents. And I told my parents exactly what had happened. - This first miracle in my life changed me completely, as you can well understand. I also had a desire to live with my parents again to support my sister. I did find a job close by, with the Ministry of Defense. Learned to follow the Lord... and we were happy ever after... GLORY TO HIS NAME!
