I had some tests done recently at the hospital. A mammogram that is normal. The doctor also wanted a bone density test done because of my age. I forgot about them after the testing. The doctors office called the other day and wanted to discuss my tests. The doctor told me the mammogram was normal. My bone density tests showed that I have the bones of a 16 to 18 year old. In fact my bones are excellent for someone of my age. I shouted “Thank You, Jesus! Praise the Lord!” Doctor said “Amen.” The doctor said he just wanted to be able to give me the good news himself.

A Miracle...Towards the end of last year I had went to Florida on a Job at a convention center. Before I had left we had gotten a letter from my husband's job he retired from that our Dental & Eye insurance would no longer be covered. Well I just bought new glasses right before that letter and the insurance covered most of it. I can't go into the whole story it would take a page but as I was working in Florida my glasses came up missing, I looked everywhere asked everyone no one saw a thing. Hundreds of people were around at this convention center. I stop and prayed Lord you know exactly where my glasses are for you see everything and I asked in faith to bring them back to me. By the end of the day everyone left including all the people and workers in our aisle where my sister-in law & I worked that day. I thought of every way God would bring them back to me having Faith he would except for the way he did The Miracle. I kept see something in a distance about 30-40 feet away on a empty table I walked towards it and it was a sandwich that one of the vendors left I turned around walking back to our table and I spotted another empty table to my left with something on it that looked like my glass case. I walked towards it and it was my glasses in the case all by itself. I cried, my sister-in law cried we hugged we cried she had never witnessed a miracle . If you were there you would know no -one but God could put them there. I knew that I knew God had answered my prayer and given me the desire of my heart and I trusted him. God is so Good, trust him believe him have faith in him and he'll do for you what he did for me. Thank You Lord !

In 2006, there were several things that we wanted but didn't have the money to buy, so we asked the Lord for them. My wife Wendy and I agreed and stood on Matthew 7:7-12. We would confess and thank God daily for the things we asked Him for. (A new kitchen floor, Christmas money, a mini-van). When we would get discouraged, and think God isn't coming through, we would encourage each other with scriptures. In December of '06, we had a couple that visited and they gave us money and said this is to buy a new floor for your kitchen. Someone else Troyer Vanstopped by the house and gave us a card and in the card was twice the amount of money that we had asked for for Christmas. Later, someone else gave us a Christmas card and in the card was a title for a real nice mini-van! Hallelujah!! We were literally overtaken with blessings!! God gave us what we asked for!!! When God gets it for you and when you use your faith and wait on Him, He always does a much better job than you could do on your own strength (Ephesians 3:20).

In 2009, I was having some female problems and I had pain that was getting worse as time went on. I didn't say anything but then the pain was getting pretty bad to where I had mentioned to my husband I think I need to go the Doctor. Well I have been attending Healing Explosions for quite some time and I said what am I going for if I can't even believe God to heal this in my body too. I was going to let other people know that God is still healing people today but not applying it to this problem. So I started looking up the scriptures from God's Word... The One and only, Holy Bible about being healed that Pastor Scott has been teaching on. Then I started quoted those verses , I believed them but wasn't seriously letting them get down in my heart for this problem . As the pain grew worse (that's how satan does when your believing God for healing) I got angry and really started apply the healing scriptures with all my heart. Psalm 103: 3.....Psalm 107:20.....I Peter 2:24 and many more. The pain left three days later, just like that. God is looking for people who are going to believe his word. The Bible isn't any book , it's a book on life and what Jesus did for us so we can have hope on this earth while we're here. Jesus is looking for people who are going to to truly believe...then and only then does he move on your behalf. He is such a good God if you'll get to know him and follow what his word says and say the heck with what man says. With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible. Matthew 19:26. WHO WILL YOU BELIEVE?

A year and a half ago I hurt my knee a little bit at work. It got better naturally but after that time it was easy to twist. Several times since then I would do something and hurt the knee, and it would be a little tender for a few days or even a week, then go away. I put up with it as it was just annoying. I was at the Bluffton street fair and was kneeling down talking to my kids in their stroller. I stood up and moved wrong, seriously twisting my knee worse than ever before. It hurt so badly I nearly passed out, tunnel vision and ringing in the ears, nausea, all of that.
I could not walk nor put any weight on it. I sat on a bench in the middle of the street fair, which I had walked to from our house 20 blocks away, stuck. Realizing who I am in Christ, and the authority I have and the healing that was already done by Jesus on the cross, I began to speak to the injury and commanded it to go away. I spoke healing scriptures at it and prayed in the spirit. Then I stood up by faith. Then I sat back down. The healing was mine, but it had not manifested yet.
Then a short time later, our Pastors came by and Pastor Scott laid hands on my knee and prayed. Immediately after that, I stood up and all pain was gone completely. I could put full weight on my knee and walk. I walked all the way home and pushed the stroller. In fact, the original injury that I never dealt with seems to also be gone. My knee is as good as new. Which makes sense, because Jesus did not bear our sickness and pain only partially, he took it all!

For months I have had problems with my previous cell phone service. I had 60% dropped calls and problems with having no signal. I called MANY times over to report my issues. Then one day I remembered our favor confessions at church and decided to call once again, this time EXPECTING favor and a good return. I called in and explained all the problems with another CSR. I received a credit of $15.00 for all the hassle, $42.00 reversed for charges someone else had racked up on my phone, 100 bonus minutes for the next three months and also the waiver of $175.00 cancellation fee if I chose to end my contract early. Praise God for His favor!

My daughter Lizzy was struggling with asthma. We prayed over her and she was healed. She has not had any symptoms or issue's ever since.
Also, Lizzy was diagnosed with Rotavirus the doctor said she would be in the hospital for a week and have strong symptoms for 2 weeks or more. We called Pastors Scott & Michelle and they came and we all prayed over her and she was healed and out of the hospital within 2 days and never had another symptom again!

On my first visit to ALCC in 2005, Pastor Michelle asked for anyone who needed healing to step forward for prayer. At first, I was hesitant to step forward but I was desperate for healing. I suffered from a candida infection which was eating me from the inside out. The only healthy cure was to change my diet drastically for a long period of time. So, with nothing to lose, I stepped forward and Pastor Michelle layed hands on me as the Word says...lay hands on the sick, and they will recover.
Soon after that I noticed the symptoms where gone. I was able to eat normal and able to gain weight. I was healed! This was not a one time event. In the past year, my family has had many victories over sicknesses, from colds to back problems like scoliosis.
Praise the Lord...He is the same yesterday and today and forever!

I had to take my car into the garage to be fixed. I didn't have the money to do it. I prayed to God and stood in faith believing Go would take care of the finances to fix my car. Praise God, because I stood in faith in Him, He provided money from someone else to pay for my car. I didn't go out asking people or telling anyone my situation. Someone came up and asked me how much my car was going to cost to get it fixed. I said I wouldn't know until my mechanic called and they signed a blank check and handed it to me. Praise God for His provision!

I started to come to ALCC before my husband. As soon as I started, I became a "Born Again Christian" and wanted my husband to do the same. I was so excited about learning the word and finding out what God can do that it completely changed my life and who I was. I started to have a deep hunger to want to know God more and I wanted my husband to do the same. So, for about a year I would constantly ask my husband if he wanted to go to church with me. Every time he would say "No" and I would always persist on asking more than once. Then I learned how to give it all to God and thank the Lord in my prayer time. I started to thank God for giving my husband the want and desire to go to church and as soon as I did that, one day I was getting ready to leave for church and my husband said "wait for me." From that day on he has been coming to church and never misses a day. He has become a "Born Again Christian" and we were both baptized together! He now has a huge hunger for God that keeps growing everyday! Only God can change someone! Praise God!

In January I was having a lot of pain in my right arm and right chest. It went all the way up into my neck. The Doctor thought it might be my rotor cup. He sent me for an MRI. It didn't show any damage. I then asked him to do another MRI on my neck. On Feb 12, 2008...I had an open MRI.
On Feb. 20, 2008...I went to see the doctor. He told me the MRI showed a pinched nerve. He also told me I could have shots or surgery. He said that if I had surgery, and something went wrong, God forbid, I would bleed to death. Even after what he had said I had such peace that I told him I wanted surgery. The doctor told me that after the surgery I should notice a big difference and no pain at all. I had the surgery March 7, 2008 and I am healing wonderfully!
