Testimonies

How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power, who went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with Him. -Acts 10:38 kjv

Jesus Is Still the Healer

Listed on these pages is a small example of the healing miracles we witness at Living Faith, both at the church in Duluth, MN and in Appleton, WI. These healings are recent and all happened between the years of 2006-2017. Many of them were reported to us without much detail, but we believe every testimony is significant and want to give God the praise He deserves. We continue to see the love and power of of Jesus Christ in our services. Jesus said that all things are possible to those who believe.

We are not against medical science. We want to see people get healthy, so they can serve God. We just prefer it when Jesus does the healing, so He can receive the glory. If you need healing and plan on attending one of our services call ahead or see where Pastor Ferg will be ministering. 218-624-7717

Prodigal Repents And Is Healed
A few weeks ago I was very sick. I was feeling very overwhelmed and discouraged. I turned on some worship music one morning. Specifically I was listening to Terry Macalmon. I remember listening to that music in my teens and feeling God. While listening to that music I started crying because I could feel God's love and presence right where I was, laying in bed. I had this thought to go to the Chiropracter. I have never been to the Chiropracter, but I remember hearing a commercial saying that getting adjusted can help with sinus problems, so I got in the same day on a Sunday and as soon as I was adjusted, my left ear opened and I could breath more easily. (Note, the infection was on my left side.)I knew the Holy Spirit quickened me to go to the Chiropracter after I quieted myself and just worshipped Him. I had run out of solutions on my own and so I just worshipped God and prayed and He gave me the answer. Later that week I needed a second round of antibiotics and more medication for my lung. I haven't been seeking God diligently for a long time, years, but I knew that Jesus bore my sickness in the cross and I knew what God said about healing. I started listening to Music that was full of scripture and I started asking God to heal me. I started confessing scripture over myself. Scriptures I had tucked away inside me started coming to my remembrance and I started speaking them over myself. I called my friend Michelle who is strong in her Faith and she encouraged me to stand in Faith and pled the blood of Jesus over myself and my apartment. She reminded me that the devil has no authority over me. My sister also had been texting me to stay in Faith and thank God for my healing and not to waiver. I had felt like God wanted me to fix things with my Pastors I had when I lived in Duluth. I spoke with them the same day and repented of my behavior and things I had said that I knew were wrong. I was told that I was forgiven years ago. It was such a good and free in feeling. Like a weight off of my shoulders. They encouraged me and told me they loved me and I could feel how genuine it was. I felt like I belonged again. It was an amazing feeling. I also made things right with Pastors I had in Fargo. (Ive had a theme of burning bridges and throwing away relationships in pridefulness.). I was forgiven by them and spent some time talking to them and praying and getting council. I remember Pastor Kevin said that I had all this information but hat God was going to put the pieces together for me like a puzzle and that He was going to show me who I am in Him. That same day I started reading a book by E.W. Kenyon, what happened from the cross to the throne. That same morning God revealed to me in my spirit who I was and that I was forgiven and how much He loves me and the depth of His sacrifice. It's hard to put into words, but it made me cry. I felt His Love so strongly. I can't describe the revelation I was getting. It's like knowing information for years but then one day you're able to use it and it makes sense. This was the beginning of God teaching me and showing me what He says in His Word about healing, who I am, the fear of the Lord, faith, and stuff. I had also been suffering from back pain and had went to the Chiropracter five times that week to try to adjust my back in line with my neck. It was so out of whack that it was taking a lot of follow up to fix things. Well I ran out of money to keep going back there so I had asked Pastor Bill to pray for my back, because I read that he had a special anointing for backs. I had been reading the testimonies on he LFM website to build my faith. Anyways he prayed, nothing fancy, just faith. He stood in 1Peter 2:24. And I went to bed knowing I would be healed. I actually went to bed excited because I knew it would come unexpectedly. Sure enough I woke up abruptly the next day and sat up in bed quickly and my back snapped into place. It felt great! God is good! Note that I had been very careful with how I moved and I was always getting up slowly as to not hurt my back. But that morning I just shot up for no reason. I told Pastor Bill the day before that I was going to pray for people to be healed soon. So I believe it was the next day on my way to reconcile with my other Pastor friends I was getting gas and I heard this man in he next lane cough a nasty cough. I knew this was my chance to excercise my faith and if I didn't do it now I never would. I asked him if it would be ok if I prayed for him to be healed. He said yes and so I prayed for him a quick prayer standing on 1Peter 2:24 and thanking God for healing him and asking Him to touch this mans body. Then this middle aged big guy started to cry and asked me to pray for his son who is in prison and almost died of an overdose. He then told me that he had lost one son to addiction three years before and that he didn't want to loose another son. So we prayed, he thanked me and we went on our way. It was so cool. Then I started getting more opportunities I pray with people. I prayed with a friend of mine about some specific things that I knew God wanted me to pray with her about. She cried and I had specific verses to give her and I encouraged her. I then told another friend about my experiences and that my faith was growing. We talked about God and it was so cool. Then I ran into a friend of mine who had some head trauma. I prayed with him. He has a Christian background but I don't know where he is at with things today. He seemed interested in going to church again. Everyday it seemed like God had someone He wanted me to pray with. I spent so much time seeking God and listening to preaching in the following days and worshipping. I knew I had to build myself up and build my faith. I had the foundation but I hadn't watered my faith or sought God diligently in years. I felt free, loved, and I started to feel peace again. God also restored my relationship with my stepdad. He showed me where I went wrong and my specific sin. I repented and was forgiven. We ended up talking about God for a while and building each other up. I got this deep great fullness inside of me for my forgiveness. I had tried to reconcile a few months ago but my heart wasn't in it and nothing was really fixed. This time I had genuine remorse and God healed our relationship. It was so different. Another day I was going to work about 20 minutes early. I was driving and saw this girl rollerblading. She fell really hard and looked like she was in pain. I watched her in my rear view mirror to see if she was getting up. She wasn't. So instead of praying that God would send someone to help her...(ridiculous I know but I used to do this all of the time because j didn't want to go out of my comfort zone helping people. It's aweful, I know.) I turned around and asked her if she needed help or a ride. She said yes to both. I helped her into the car and started driving her to her destination. Somehow it came up that I could tell her that I've had kind of a personal spiritual awakening. She told me that she was a Christian and that she kept meeting people she felt like was God wanted her to meet. Like a divine appointment I think. We clicked and started talking about God. I told her what had been happening in my life. We exchanged numbers and She invited me to her church.This wasn't a coincidence. Ihad exactly enough time before work to drop her off to where she needed to go and make it to work on time with maybe 2 minutes to spare. Divine appointments.

I used to feel so ashamed of my past and like I was stuck. I was lonely and depressed. I've been through so much pain emotionally in the past 7 years and my sadness started to feel like a permanent part of my being, until I started seeking God diligently and He completely set me free. I feel my heart is beings healed and the loneliness left. I cry more easily because my heart is soft and God is so good. How can I not cry after all the love and forgiveness I've been shown. I learned that I'm worth it to God. Im not just another person. He was waiting for me this whole time. He's not mad at me. I'm in Him and He is in me. I matter and I'm gonna make it. This is my new theme.
Luke 4:18 and 19 I can't wait to see what's next. I know the devil cannot touch me and I am God's.

P.S. I wrote this so that anyone could read it. I want it to be encouraging to anyone who needs it.

Cancer Healed
An elderly woman in our congregation recently told our pastor that she had been diagnosed with cancer. Her doctor told her she only had a number of months to live. Several years later, she is still alive and is as vibrant and on fire for God as ever!

Fractured Tibia Healed
A lady at one of our churches began to have pain in her left leg. An x-ray revealed that she had a fractured tibia. The Doctor put her on crutches and told her to come back the next day for an MRI. She came to church for one of our services that night. Pastor Bill prayed for her and she said the pain left. The next day she had the MRI done. The fracture was gone! She left the crutches at the doctor's office and was able to return to work!

Cyst in Baby Healed
A Five month old baby was diagnosed with a cyst in her neck. There was a hole where the cyst was draining. The parents brought her for prayer. Pastor Bill laid hands on the baby during a Sunday Morning Service. On Monday morning, the hole in the neck was closed up and healed over. Glory to God!

Leg Amputation Canceled
A man from the Appleton, WI area was scheduled to have his entire leg amputated. His leg began to deteriorate after being treated for blockages near his heart. The drugs used to clear his arteries caused pieces of plaque to break off, which was good news for his heart. Unfortunately, those pieces of plaque lodged in the smaller arteries of his leg causing a serious loss of circulation. Pastor Bill and Jack Coe Jr. (a guest speaker at LFM at the time) visited the man in the hospital the day before the procedure. The leg was very dark purple and cold to the touch. The men prayed in faith and then left. The next day, the man was prepped for surgery, wheeled into the room, and anesthetized. A nurse reported that when the doctor came into the room he exclaimed that he couldn't cut the leg off because there was life in it. It was warm, and the color was returning. Praise the Lord. The man woke up with two legs. It was a notable miracle.

All three are gone! I was the type of person who would pray hours for everyone but myself. I believed I was healed but didn’t concentrate on praying myself through until on day. While praying for a friend, the Lord said that I needed to pray for myself. I did, and He began to give me revelation on praying specifically for myself and speaking the word over myself, just as I did for others. I am so glad I took time to pray for myself. I have received my healing!

Bullet Removed By the Power of God
In April of 2011 a man in Appleton, Wisconsin was radically touched and healed by the power of God. Having been shot 12 years ago, this man lived in constant pain due to a slug that was permanently embedded in his stomach. He was forced to wear 3 x 4 inch bandage on his stomach to protect the open wound he was to carry for the rest of his life, which often bled and seeped from infection. He lived with constant fear that he might fall or receive a blow to the stomach, which could kill him if an artery were to open. The doctors would not remove the bullet due the high risk of the operation. He lived on a strict diet, and the food he could eat needed to be soft. He regularly took pain medication because of the frequent, intense onsets of pain he would have. He simply went the altar and asked for prayer in faith. After the service, the lump from the bullet was gone, and he was able to eat three doughnuts without any pain or indigestion! He went to the doctor’s office and had this miraculous act of God verified.
