(Job 42:5)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;From as early as the age of 15 years, I remember the problems I had with my spine. Doctors had put my problems down to an abnormality from birth. It all started with problems in my lower back. I found it difficult to sit for long, stand for a period of time or walk long distances. The spine grew progressively worse and in 1993 I had to have a Spine Operation. Upon full medical examination doctors noticed that my left leg was approx. 2 cm short. This resulted in both a shoulder and pelvic tilt. Constant pain in my back, shoulders, pelvis and legs was part of everyday life. I would go to bed with the pain and waken the next day with the pain. It was constantly there. Pain killers, physiotherapy and digital pain relief was an everyday thing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It was Sunday 29th July (On Eagle's Wings 6th Anniversary Service) that I experienced the awesome power of God. I had seen God heal and move in many situations and areas in my life; especially the life of my daughter who was diagnosed with a brain tumor in 2001, but has now overcome two brain surgeries and is now completely recovered!!! I thought I had seen the complete side of God as My Healer, but little did I know that He was about to reveal another aspect of who He is. It was a day that I would witness the Creator Himself at work!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When the Man of God called for people with short limbs, I got up, and as I walked to the front, I found myself questioning whether this was possible. I had seen God do internal surgery, but this time I was to witness the Master doing surgery on the outside.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I walked to the front of the church, with a short left leg but left the altar with two completely even legs. Hallelujah, Praise God!! The Man of God asked me to sit on a chair, and lifting my legs straight in-front of me the difference in length was clearly noticeable. Still holding my legs straight in front of me, He asked me to stretch my left leg forward. As I did, before my very eyes, the two limbs were of the same length! Today as I write my testimony I am finding it extremely difficult to explain in words the overwhelming experience of the awesome power of God. This was something that even medical science today could not do!! If you have a missing limb - doctors will give you a plastic one - but I had witnessed for myself FLESH and BONE GROWING.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Upon getting home that evening, I noticed I had absolutely no pain in my back, shoulders, legs and pelvic area. It is now day 5 and there is still no trace of pain anyway in my body. I feel completely new and revived!!!! This has moved my faith to a place where I can only but BELIEVE that anything and absolutely everything is POSSIBLE!! What is impossible with man, is possible with God. (Luke 18:27)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I’m am still in awe of the Power of God and now I can truly say, "I have heard of thee by the hearing of the ear, but NOW MY EYE SEETH THEE - Job 42:5&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;From Glory to Glory&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fozia Draper - Milton Keynes, UK</content><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.oewm.org.uk/blog/2007/08/dear-pastor-suzanne-testimony-i-have.html' title='Miraculous Surgery - A Creative Miracle!'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5433090581750182931&amp;postID=5915825802285559992' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.oewm.org.uk/blog/oewm.xml' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5433090581750182931/posts/default/5915825802285559992'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5433090581750182931/posts/default/5915825802285559992'/><author><name>Suzanne</name></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5433090581750182931.post-6586549809848415694</id><published>2007-06-05T11:00:00.000+01:00</published><updated>2007-06-05T11:01:57.661+01:00</updated><title type='text'>Hope</title><content type='html'>Hi Suzanne,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thank you for the email - difficult to say how I am doing really.

However, as the three of you were praying for me today I felt a warm glow going right through me and, as you witnessed, I started shaking uncontrollably. The effects were almost immediate and tonight I feel stronger and healthier than I have felt for a long time. Tonight I enjoyed a barbecue with my family and enjoyed my first real meal for almost three weeks without any pain or discomfort.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I would like to express my awe that the Holy Spirit has used you as the vessels for this remarkable experience. It remains to be seen whether this is a permanent improvement or whether God has chosen to give me a glimpse of His power to help me to concentrate my mind on more intensive prayer. As always, whatever the outcome it will be part of His plan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Please continue to remember me in  your prayers as I will you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;God bless each of you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Healed,&lt;br /&gt;London, UK</content><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.oewm.org.uk/blog/2007/06/healed-by-power-of-god.html' title='Healed by the Power of God'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.oewm.org.uk/blog/oewm.xml' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5433090581750182931/posts/default/2560332720129675293'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5433090581750182931/posts/default/2560332720129675293'/><author><name>Webmaster</name></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5433090581750182931.post-5022852678693069554</id><published>2007-06-03T12:00:00.000+01:00</published><updated>2007-06-05T10:01:12.099+01:00</updated><title type='text'>Be my Spiritual Mentor</title><content type='html'>Dear Suzanne&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As you know I am a fairly new born again Christian who rediscovered my faith in The Lord after many years of detachment from Christ as a result of my addictions to drink and gambling. Since I was born again I have had regular meetings with my Pastor to discuss the Glory of God's love. However, at our most recent meeting he suggested that as well as continuing to see him I should consider approaching a friend who I trusted to become my confessor and spiritual mentor. He also said that this individual did not need to be a member of my congregation and that I might, in fact, find it more comfortable if it was a friend who was in another Christian place of worship.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have prayed about this matter deeply and I feel that God is drawing me towards you. I have witnessed your wonderful faith and have read and listened to your contributions to various discussions with great admiration. If you feel you were able to take me under your wing I would be both honoured and grateful. In any event I would love to visit your Church at the earliest possible opportunity to hear you preach.With all God's blessings and much love in Christ.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;P,&lt;br /&gt;London, UK</content><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.oewm.org.uk/blog/2007/06/be-my-spiritual-mentor.html' title='Be my Spiritual Mentor'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.oewm.org.uk/blog/oewm.xml' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5433090581750182931/posts/default/5022852678693069554'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5433090581750182931/posts/default/5022852678693069554'/><author><name>Webmaster</name></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5433090581750182931.post-4887478182170347144</id><published>2007-05-31T12:00:00.000+01:00</published><updated>2007-06-05T10:04:29.115+01:00</updated><title type='text'>Delivered from an Abusive Past</title><content type='html'>The day God created me, he fashioned me after his image. There was also evil raging for my soul but evil did not prevail against me because Mercy said NO!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I was born one of twins in a little village in Ghana, of parents who were not married. My mother tried to abort me but God stepped in. Death was desperate for me but God had the final word. I would have high fevers and convulse to the point of death almost every other week. At age two, I was sent to live with my father and his mistress. His mistress refused to have me and my twin so we were sent to live with my auntie. There I was taken to church every Sunday and accepted Jesus Christ. Jesus appeared to me and was beckoning me to come to him. He had a white garment and there was a white cloud around him.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Just as I was enjoying my new family and security, I was sent back to live with my father now married to his mistress.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I grew up feeling rejected and lonely. I would cry myself to sleep wondering why my mother left me. When I was 9 years old my cousin tried to abuse me sexually but failed. Our maid servant tried to get a neighbour's child to abuse me sexually but failed. Sadly, at the age of 15, my father succeeded in abusing me sexually. It was a shock to me because I trusted him and did not understand why. I lost trust; I concluded that no-one loved me. This abuse continued weekly until I was 19yrs old. I would run to night clubs and smoke and drink to escape this torment. One day I decide to take my own life. I took a knife and hid it under my pillow and waited for everyone to go to bed. But as I was about to do it, I heard a voice saying "do not do it."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Over the years I entered into my own shell and I became cold and could not express myself. I attracted bullies and lost confidence. I felt weighed down and condemned. I suffered shame and guilt for what had happened to me and I would hide from everyone. I felt people would see what was inside me and what I had gone through. I felt everything was wrong in my life and could not get out of feeling worthless and useless. I felt everything w as against me and I could not get out of this dark hole that I was in. I married and attracted an abusive husband who controlled me with his anger and rage. He would throw plates up in the air, hit the ironing board and put so much terror in me. I would be afraid and terrified every time I heard a door open and him coming indoors. For years, because of the rejection, abandonment, the hurt and the deep wounds in my heart and soul, I stopped sleeping. I would wake up in the night about six times and look for something to eat to comfort my soul. I became more and more depressed and would not wash for three days. I would lie in the couch, try to get up to do some cooking and then come back and lie down. I could not get myself in the bathtub. I was just so weighed down. I hated myself and felt like dung. Even though I was told by everyone that I had a pretty face I was so down. My children would insult me and I could not get out of this mess.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Even though I have been a Christian for years, how did this all change? I believe change came when the anointing upon the Woman of God came into contact with my circumstances and situation. The crunch came when I discovered that my husband had adopted a child without my knowledge and I took a stand and spoke to someone who directed me to Pastor Suzanne. I had come to the end of my rope and I had to get out of this hell hole. I was so desperate for love that I did not mind how I was treated as long as I had that love. God sent me a person who had the anointing of Christ necessary to deliver me from my situation. She became a mother and mentor who counseled with me, prayed for, encouraged me and told me I could be free. Many people have let me down and I was very skeptical but I found it in my heart to trust her. In such a short space of time I have been delivered from my past. She showed me how only God can love me unconditionally and that I was worth loving. I now know that I am loved and beautiful in His eyes. In less than half a year, I have regained my confidence and self esteem and now my family is treating me with love and respect. I am no longer afraid of my husband walking out on me. I have a new name now that even my husband uses as well. My husband refers to me as ‘My love’. He now respects my opinions and I now count in the family. I am unafraid and bold now because of what God has done in my life.
