Caption transcript for The God of Miracles: “Bonus interviews” (9/9)

• 00:01 David Hart: Today, we hear more testimonies of those
• 00:03 who have had miracles in their lives.
• 00:05 Join us on "Our Jewish Roots" with Bible teaching in Israel
• 00:09 by Dr. Jeffrey Seif.
• 00:10 ♪♪♪
• 00:18 male announcer: To believe in the Bible
• 00:19 is to believe in miracles.
• 00:22 From Genesis to Revelation, the impossible became possible.
• 00:26 As God's hand moved across space and time,
• 00:30 land and seas were created.
• 00:32 Graves opened, water turned to wine, the sick and lame healed,
• 00:38 the land of Israel completely restored.
• 00:43 Past, present, and future, he's the Alpha and Omega,
• 00:47 he is the God of miracles.
• 00:57 David: Thank you for joining us today, I am David Hart.
• 00:59 Kirsten Hart: I'm Kirsten Hart.
• 01:00 Dr. Jeffrey Seif: I am Jeffrey Seif.
• 01:01 David: Well, we are ending our series which we have really
• 01:04 enjoyed being at this table with Dr. Seif, all about miracles.
• 01:10 We need to hear about that, don't we?
• 01:11 Dr. Jeffrey Seif: I believe so, because people need heaven's
• 01:14 help for life's sordid stuff, the hurts.
• 01:18 Kirsten: Right, and we read about it in the Bible, but this
• 01:21 program is all about hearing it from people's mouths that are
• 01:26 living right now and today what God has done in their lives.
• 01:30 Dr. Jeffrey Seif: Jesus said I will not leave you fatherless,
• 01:33 I will come to you.
• 01:35 It's great to hear stories about how he came today.
• 01:38 Kirsten: And these are stories today in we call it our
• 01:40 bonus program, but it's a program all by itself, all about
• 01:46 people's stories, what they have walked through, and we know
• 01:49 you're going to enjoy this.
• 01:51 We'd like to take you right now back to the land, to Israel, to
• 01:55 hear miracle stories from the mouths of people living today.
• 02:02 Dr. Jeffrey Seif: Ray Ramirez, it is a thrill to be
• 02:04 with you.
• 02:05 Ray Ramirez: Well, it's my joy to be with you today.
• 02:07 Dr. Jeffrey Seif: Do you believe, personally, that God is
• 02:08 still in the business of doing good by virtue of restoring
• 02:11 people, the miracles of restored health, restored relationships,
• 02:16 restored finances?
• 02:17 Ray: Sure, of course I believe God is in the business
• 02:21 of doing good and revealing himself through such things.
• 02:27 To give a personal testimony, as a young man, I was in a
• 02:34 congregation where the pastor had experienced a miraculous
• 02:39 healing from cancer.
• 02:41 He had lung cancer.
• 02:43 Through that healing, he committed himself, in fact, the
• 02:47 way he would tell the story is, he had a prayer of communication
• 02:52 with God where he said if you'll heal me, I'll do whatever you
• 02:54 call me to, and he was in the hospital at the time, and there
• 02:58 was a miraculous healing, and the cancer was removed
• 03:00 from his lungs, and he left and he served the Lord.
• 03:04 And at one service, he was teaching on miraculous healing,
• 03:09 and my father, again, who worked in the space program, had a
• 03:12 gentleman that he worked with that was paralyzed,
• 03:15 in a wheelchair.
• 03:17 If I remember correctly, he had a motorcycle accident that left
• 03:20 him--he had a spinal cord injury and it left him paralyzed.
• 03:23 And my father invited this gentleman from work, he said,
• 03:25 "Why don't you come?"
• 03:27 So, this gentleman comes to a service in his wheelchair,
• 03:30 into the service, the pastor's teaching, at the end there's a
• 03:33 time of prayer, and with my own eyes, I watched a man who came
• 03:37 in in a wheelchair that could not walk, stand up, walk, and
• 03:41 push his own wheelchair out the door at the end of the service.
• 03:45 Dr. Jeffrey Seif: Mike, it really is an honor to be with
• 03:47 you, and thank you for taking the time.
• 03:50 You serve as a leader in one of the more significant
• 03:53 Messianic works in Israel.
• 03:55 Beyond the miracle of your own existence and ministry here, in
• 03:59 your own life, does the story of miracle resonate specifically?
• 04:03 Mike Mott: My wife and I were married for ten years, we
• 04:06 couldn't have children, and at one point I remember asking the
• 04:12 Lord as we were getting ready to start having children, "Can we
• 04:15 have children and what is that going to look like?"
• 04:18 And the Lord spoke something into my heart that at the time
• 04:21 I didn't understand it, but he said this is gonna be an issue
• 04:25 of faith for you, and I thought, cool, an issue of faith.
• 04:31 This is exactly how God always works.
• 04:35 He'd just done some miraculous things in our lives at that
• 04:37 point, and so I was like, big trust factor on the Lord.
• 04:43 This is gonna be an issue of faith, won't this be fun?
• 04:46 But then ten years of not getting pregnant goes by, and
• 04:51 we've gone to the doctors, had all the tests done, finally the
• 04:55 doctors say this is what we call as unexplained infertility.
• 05:02 There's no explanation for it.
• 05:04 You should be able to have children.
• 05:07 So, we began to fast and pray, and trust the Lord for something
• 05:13 that now we couldn't make happen, and the doctors couldn't
• 05:17 make happen, and within two or three months, we finally get the
• 05:23 phone call from the doctors, you're pregnant.
• 05:28 And for us, it was a miracle because there was
• 05:31 no other explanation.
• 05:33 We'd done everything that we could do.
• 05:36 Dr. Jeffrey Seif: It is such a pleasure to be with Martha
• 05:39 Stern, thank you for being here.
• 05:41 Martha Stern: Thank you.
• 05:42 Dr. Jeffrey Seif: Now, that last name resonates in our
• 05:43 culture because of your husband, David Stern, "The Complete
• 05:47 Jewish Bible" was that pioneering work to bring to life
• 05:51 certainly the Jewish connection to the Jesus story through a
• 05:54 translation, and you were involved and
• 05:56 behind this, correct?
• 05:57 Martha: Yes.
• 05:59 Dr. Jeffrey Seif: So, when we think of a miracle and coming to
• 06:00 faith, God interrupted kind of your sequence to manifest
• 06:05 himself to you.
• 06:06 Martha: I met a girl, I was gonna go stay in a commune, and
• 06:10 she picked me up at the airport, and took me to the commune where
• 06:15 she was also staying, and she looked at me, and she said,
• 06:18 "Wow, you look like you need help,
• 06:20 why don't you try praying?"
• 06:21 And I was like, "What, me pray, what, what?"
• 06:24 She said, "Yes, pray that God will teach you how to pray,
• 06:28 pray that you'll have the love of Jesus in you."
• 06:30 And I was sort of like, what?
• 06:32 You know, that's not me.
• 06:33 But I stayed together with this nice person I had met, Debbie,
• 06:37 and she was from Virginia.
• 06:39 I ended up moving with her to Virginia, and her and another
• 06:43 friend, and we were reading the Bible, because I figured,
• 06:46 oh, well, I've done yoga, I've done this, I've done that,
• 06:49 what's the difference?
• 06:50 I'll read the Bible.
• 06:52 So, I started reading the New Testament,
• 06:54 and I was just amazed.
• 06:55 I was just amazed, because it was about Yeshua, Jesus, and his
• 07:03 friends, and I realized I wanted to be a friend of Yeshua.
• 07:07 That was the way I put it.
• 07:08 I thought, I really need to know for sure.
• 07:10 And I sort of looked up at the sky, and I'm like, God,
• 07:14 if you're there, and then I thought, well, God, this is God
• 07:17 I'm talking to, right?
• 07:18 He created the whole universe.
• 07:20 He did everything.
• 07:23 I mean, so if it's really God, and he's really real,
• 07:26 he can send me a sign.
• 07:28 I wanted something real.
• 07:29 I didn't want to just feel good, like when you meditate,
• 07:32 you know, you can feel good, but I wanted a sign.
• 07:35 And I'm sitting on the beach, and I said, well, send a giant
• 07:39 seashell, I thought something real though,
• 07:42 I wanted a specific thing.
• 07:44 I didn't wanna just have a feeling.
• 07:47 And five minutes later, this guy came walking down the beach with
• 07:50 his dog, and he just walked on down the beach, and then five
• 07:54 minutes later, he came back and he had this long, thin stick,
• 07:58 like the kind when the trash guys pick up trash in the parks.
• 08:01 It was a very long, thin stick, and it had, like,
• 08:05 a piece of paper on it.
• 08:06 I went to look, and it was not a piece of paper on the stick,
• 08:10 it was this seashell.
• 08:12 ♪♪♪
• 08:20 David: In this series, "The God of Miracles," there have
• 08:22 been so many testimonies of miracles in their lives.
• 08:26 If you've missed any of these programs, it's easy to see them.
• 08:29 Go to our website, levitt.com.
• 08:31 Kirsten: You can see the full interview.
• 08:33 If you have some time to sit and hear someone's incredible story,
• 08:37 that's available for you.
• 08:38 But right now, we wanna bring you the rest of some of these
• 08:42 stories that you've already seen through our series,
• 08:45 "The God of Miracles."
• 08:46 Israel Hanna, and here's Jill, you don't wanna
• 08:50 miss these stories right now.
• 08:54 male: Jill, you're here again, and we've heard so many
• 08:57 miracles pertaining to your life, but one more miracle
• 09:00 to discuss, and that is about you having children.
• 09:03 Doctors said it wasn't possible.
• 09:04 I wanna hear the story.
• 09:06 Jill Odieny: Yeah, so I met my husband late in life.
• 09:09 I was 37 when we met.
• 09:13 And so, we knew that if we wanted to have children, this
• 09:16 wasn't something we could wait on, and so I scheduled an
• 09:20 appointment with my doctor.
• 09:22 And this was the height of the pandemic, mid 2020, so all
• 09:28 appointments were virtual, we met over the computer,
• 09:32 and he went over my medical history, and he said,
• 09:37 "Well, your labs are terrible."
• 09:41 male: Well, thanks, Doc, you know?
• 09:43 Jill: Yeah, thank you for that.
• 09:44 Not the first time I've heard a doctor say something like that.
• 09:47 He said your labs are terrible, and based on your labs, based on
• 09:50 your age, and based on the fact that you live with cerebral
• 09:54 palsy, I don't think that you'll ever have children.
• 10:00 And then you add to that that if you do become pregnant, there is
• 10:05 a very small risk, although a real one, that your intercranial
• 10:09 pressure will go beyond normal levels, because you do live
• 10:14 with residual hydrocephalus.
• 10:16 male: From when you were born, yeah.
• 10:18 Jill: From when I was born.
• 10:20 And so, my husband and I took all of this in, and we hung up
• 10:24 the video call, and we looked at each other, and we just said,
• 10:28 "Should we do this?"
• 10:30 Because he was willing to take me on as a patient, he was
• 10:33 simply laying out the risks and the odds that were in front of
• 10:36 me if I wanted to have a baby.
• 10:39 And we decided to go forward, and I had scheduled an in-person
• 10:44 appointment with him about three weeks into the future, because
• 10:46 that was the soonest I could get on his books, and two weeks
• 10:50 later, I call up his office, and I speak to a nurse, and I say,
• 10:56 "I just got a positive pregnancy test,
• 10:59 what do you want me to do?"
• 11:02 So, she said, well, you can go to your regular OB/GYN,
• 11:06 because this was a reproductive endocrinologist.
• 11:10 male: Oh, to try to get you pregnant.
• 11:11 He's like, I'm done with that, I've got success now, you know.
• 11:14 [laughing]
• 11:16 Jill: She said you can go to your regular OB/GYN, or if you
• 11:19 would like us to do some early ultrasounds to see what we can
• 11:23 see, then we're happy to do that for you, and I said yes,
• 11:26 that is what I want.
• 11:28 And so, I went in, and they found the heartbeat right away,
• 11:32 they eventually graduated me from their specialized practice
• 11:36 to my regular OB/GYN.
• 11:39 My OB/GYN saw me every single month of my pregnancy, and gave
• 11:44 me an ultrasound every single month of my pregnancy, because
• 11:49 again, we didn't know how living with cerebral palsy was going to
• 11:54 affect me or the child that I was carrying.
• 11:59 So, she monitored me very closely, and when I was 38 weeks
• 12:03 and four days, she decided to do the C-section about ten days
• 12:08 earlier than she had originally scheduled it, because she could
• 12:12 tell that I was running out of room.
• 12:15 And my blood pressure wasn't horrible, but it also wasn't
• 12:18 great, so she decided to do the scheduled C-section and deliver
• 12:23 our son, who is perfectly healthy, incredibly tall, just
• 12:28 like his father, and he has no medical issues whatsoever as a
• 12:35 result of his birth or the fact that he was carried inside of
• 12:39 me, and he is an enormous blessing to me, his dad,
• 12:45 his Oma and Opa.
• 12:48 People just think he's delightful, and he really is.
• 12:52 Kirsten: I'm a mom, you're a dad, I would rather go
• 12:56 than my child.
• 12:58 And I can't even fathom the fact that you would wake up and know
• 13:05 that your daughter is gone.
• 13:09 How did you do that?
• 13:13 Israel Hanna: When I woke up, you know, when I got out of
• 13:15 intensive care after ten days, recovered for about three months
• 13:19 from the accident, I said I made a vow to God, I will never talk
• 13:23 about you ever again if this is the way you treat
• 13:25 those who serve you.
• 13:27 I was an evangelist for ten years, serving the Lord with all
• 13:29 my heart, and then my daughter gets killed in this car
• 13:31 accident, and so I just made a vow.
• 13:35 And so, for a year-and-a-half, this is where my Bible comes in,
• 13:39 I said I'm done, I'll never speak to you again
• 13:42 or anybody about you again.
• 13:44 And on Labor Day weekend, a year-and-a-half later, I get a
• 13:49 call from a friend that says, up in northern Minnesota,
• 13:52 would you come and be a minister to us, or a pastor.
• 13:55 It was a big time up there, it was Labor Day weekend,
• 13:57 the church was packed.
• 13:59 Would you come and speak?
• 14:00 And I says, I haven't spoke for the last year-and-a-half.
• 14:04 Matter of fact, I have given that up, but Pastor, because
• 14:06 you're my friend, I'll pray about it.
• 14:09 And I said, you know, I got down on my knees at home that night,
• 14:13 and I said the only way that I will ever preach again is if you
• 14:21 return my Bible that was lost in that accident and has been
• 14:25 missing for over a year-and-a-half.
• 14:26 Kirsten: That's a fleece.
• 14:28 That's a fleece right there.
• 14:30 Israel: An hour later, it was in the evening, two hours later,
• 14:33 there was a gunshot wound in the backyard.
• 14:35 I called to talk to the game warden, I got ahold of the
• 14:40 highway patrol by mistake.
• 14:42 The highway patrolman, I said, my name is Jim Hanna, could you
• 14:44 send a game warden over?
• 14:48 They said your name is what?
• 14:50 And they said, well, I've got a Bible here.
• 14:54 David: He laughed at you, I think, didn't he?
• 14:55 Israel: Yeah, he laughed at me, and I says I have a Bible
• 14:57 here that we found underneath the seat of one of the highway
• 15:02 patrol cars that we cleaned out.
• 15:03 Could this Bible possibly be yours?
• 15:06 The police officer said I'm about to put this in the
• 15:12 security area where it'll be just saved.
• 15:15 If you had not called at this exact moment in time, it would
• 15:19 have sat there forever and nobody would
• 15:21 have known about it.
• 15:23 And they returned this Bible right here in my hand, after it
• 15:26 had been lost for a year-and-a-half, and I took this
• 15:29 Bible on Sunday, and I went and I preached for the first time
• 15:33 since the accident back in that hospital, because God had
• 15:36 returned my Bible, and that was a miracle.
• 15:39 David: I just wanna go back a little bit about your daughter
• 15:41 who passed again.
• 15:43 Again, we just can't fathom that happening to one of our children
• 15:47 or our grandchildren, but something happened
• 15:50 with your family.
• 15:51 You have 12 children now. There's something to that.
• 15:55 Israel: God is a God of restoration.
• 15:58 He is a God who restores and will restore the things
• 16:02 you've lost.
• 16:03 In my Bible, Joel chapter 2 talks about the restoration of
• 16:07 all things that the enemy has stolen from you, and that's for
• 16:12 our viewing audience to understand, is that we serve a
• 16:15 God who loves us, no matter what we've lost.
• 16:18 He's a pretty good bookkeeper, and he's restored fivefold, I've
• 16:23 got five beautiful daughters.
• 16:26 Tragedy, difficulties, trials and tribulations will do one
• 16:30 of two things.
• 16:32 They'll either make you bitter or they'll make you better.
• 16:35 I chose to listen to the voice of the Lord, even under those
• 16:39 difficult situations, and it made me a better person.
• 16:43 And I encourage everyone who is going through a bitter,
• 16:47 difficult time in their life, to think about that and turn back
• 16:51 to God and say, God, I really need your help, and then listen
• 16:55 for that voice.
• 16:57 God loves you.
• 16:59 God is a God of miracles, and he will change your life if you'll
• 17:03 just put your trust back in him, despite everything
• 17:06 that's happened.
• 17:09 announcer: Our resource this week, the series, "The God of
• 17:11 Miracles" on DVD.
• 17:13 In this nine-part series, we show our miraculous God at work
• 17:17 from Genesis to Revelation.
• 17:20 With teaching from the Holy Land by Dr. Jeffrey Seif.
• 17:23 We also hear testimonials from those who have experienced the
• 17:26 Lord's supernatural hand in their own lives.
• 17:29 Contact us and ask for "The God of Miracles" series on DVD.
• 17:34 Remember to connect with us on social media
• 17:36 for so much extra content.
• 17:39 Find us @OurJewishRoots.
• 17:42 Dr. Jeffrey Seif: Well, the Scripture says, "Let the
• 17:44 redeemed of the Lord say so."
• 17:47 The Lord redeemed you in a special way, correct, Dave?
• 17:49 David: He sure did.
• 17:51 You know my story, I'm a pastor's son, and when my
• 17:54 parents divorced years ago, it really kind of messed up--he
• 18:00 wasn't only my father, but he was my pastor, and I wasn't
• 18:06 close enough to the Lord to be able to handle that situation.
• 18:09 So, at a young age, actually I was 25, 30 years old,
• 18:15 I ended up in Hollywood, California.
• 18:17 We're from San Diego, California, I ended up in
• 18:19 Hollywood, I was trying to make it in secular music, and doing
• 18:24 just about anything I could to make it in secular music.
• 18:29 MTV, you know that station, I gotta tell you what happened
• 18:33 to me last night.
• 18:34 We were in our hotel room, I was flipping through the channels,
• 18:38 and MTV came on, and I was reminded that I wanted to be on
• 18:42 MTV back in the day, and I was watching just for a second, and
• 18:46 I watched this guy on a high rise just fall back to his death
• 18:52 during a song.
• 18:53 I couldn't believe it.
• 18:55 And I'm just thinking, I wanted to be on MTV?
• 18:59 I wanted to be in that family?
• 19:02 And I'm so thankful that I listened to that voice, that
• 19:05 small voice, for two years of my life when I was trying to make
• 19:09 it on my own, and God would say, Dave, you need to sing for me,
• 19:13 you need to live for me.
• 19:15 When I accepted that, and came back to him, I have a family,
• 19:20 I have two children, grandchildren,
• 19:23 and I'm so thankful.
• 19:25 Kirsten: I was gonna say, what's neat is you wanted to
• 19:26 make it in secular music so bad, but you gave it back to him.
• 19:32 To brag on my husband a bit, he's in the Gospel Music Hall of
• 19:35 Fame, and that happened after he gave his life back to the Lord.
• 19:42 Dr. Jeffrey Seif: That's a beautiful story, and I'm shocked
• 19:44 by how bombastic, footage of someone falling to their death,
• 19:50 and that transitioning.
• 19:52 Oh, my word, what a great testimony.
• 19:54 David: I don't know if you watched the Grammy Awards
• 19:55 recently, where there was a guy dressed as Satan, and the song
• 19:59 that they sang was called "Unholy," and I wanted to
• 20:02 be a part of that.
• 20:03 I'm so glad that I knew better as a child.
• 20:06 Dr. Jeffrey Seif: Yes, me, too.
• 20:09 You're gonna see some testimonies now from individuals
• 20:12 of students that are Bible College students.
• 20:15 I'm their professor, I asked, "Who'd like to share?"
• 20:17 You're gonna see some examples of those
• 20:19 that said they wanted to do it.
• 20:22 male: You're a daughter of a missionary, are you not?
• 20:24 You were in Costa Rica.
• 20:26 Caeli Frasier: Yes, I lived there for three months.
• 20:27 And one night, it was in the middle of the night, and it was,
• 20:30 like, four in the morning, and I'm asleep, my sister's in the
• 20:33 bed next to me, and we're both asleep, sound asleep, it was
• 20:36 great, and I feel something on my leg, and I lean down to swipe
• 20:40 it off my leg, because our house was infested with cockroaches,
• 20:43 so I just though, oh, must be a cockroach in my bed.
• 20:46 male: That's typical for Costa Rica.
• 20:47 Caeli: Yeah, right, it's very normal.
• 20:49 No screens on the windows, so bugs come in all the time, so it
• 20:51 was a normal thing, just thought it was, like, a normal bug.
• 20:55 I swipe it off, and it stings my hand, and I jump out of bed
• 20:57 freaking out, wake my sister up, and so I turn the lights on and
• 21:01 I'm like, just help me move, like, the blanket around so we
• 21:03 can find out what it is.
• 21:05 So, we flip the sheet over, there's nothing there, and she's
• 21:07 like, wait, there's something heavy on this side of the sheet.
• 21:10 So we flip it back over, and there was, like, a scorpion,
• 21:12 like this big in the bed.
• 21:15 And I'm freaking out, I run to my dad's room, and I'm like,
• 21:18 Dad, there's--and I'm, like, freaking out, and my sister from
• 21:21 the other room yells, "There's a scorpion in our room."
• 21:24 So, my dad jumps out of bed, grabs a bowl and a spoon, and he
• 21:28 runs in and he smacks the scorpion.
• 21:30 male: He spoons 'em to death.
• 21:31 Caeli: He spoons 'em to death.
• 21:33 male: That is a man after my own heart.
• 21:34 That's brilliant, I love it.
• 21:36 Caeli: Tosses it outside, comes back inside, my hand is,
• 21:37 like, swelling and red, and I was, like, Dad, can you just
• 21:41 pray for my hand.
• 21:43 Like, I don't know what else to do.
• 21:44 Like, can you just pray for it?
• 21:45 So he prays for my hand, and the pain leaves instantly, and we're
• 21:48 like, okay, like, praise the Lord, like, thank you, Jesus.
• 21:51 Gabby Flook: So, my hamstring was torn, like, the muscle, but
• 21:55 in that, it also had ripped off a tiny piece of my growth plate,
• 21:59 like where my leg connects to my hip.
• 22:01 My youth pastors were pushing me to go to this youth camp,
• 22:04 and of course I was like, absolutely not, you're crazy.
• 22:06 And then my mom ended up making me go, and then one night during
• 22:11 worship, I was feeling, like, okay, I'm obviously here
• 22:13 for a reason, so let's see what God is really about.
• 22:16 Like, let's see if he'll do anything.
• 22:19 I kind of, like, put my hands up.
• 22:20 I had never been, like, really engaged in the Holy Spirit,
• 22:23 so I had no idea what that looked like.
• 22:26 And then this girl came up to me and she was like,
• 22:29 hey, can I pray for your leg?
• 22:31 And I don't know how she knew, because I was wearing pants, so
• 22:35 even though it was taped, like, she couldn't see anything.
• 22:38 But I was like, yeah, sure.
• 22:40 After a few minutes praying, like, I noticed the pain that I
• 22:43 had been feeling every day, like, all the time, it just
• 22:46 stopped, and she prayed for a little bit after that, and then
• 22:50 she stood up and she's like, hey, do you feel anything?
• 22:52 And I was like, yeah, like, it doesn't hurt.
• 22:54 And she didn't say anything else, she just walked away.
• 22:57 And after that, like, I went outside, I tumbled a lot,
• 23:01 and I never felt any pain again.
• 23:04 Joy Robb: I purposely vocal abused my voice.
• 23:07 Like, I just push myself to limits, I'd go past things
• 23:10 I shouldn't have.
• 23:12 The physical part, it became a raspiness.
• 23:15 Even if other people could not hear it, I heard it.
• 23:19 I called it scars in the back of my throat.
• 23:25 I'm pretty sure I had vocal nodules at least twice.
• 23:28 I had, like, just about every symptom you could think of.
• 23:34 And then one day, the professors were talking about how they
• 23:38 would help their vocal students, like, find their identity,
• 23:43 uncover their identity of the voice God gave them, and
• 23:47 I thought that was really interesting, and I thought, huh,
• 23:50 God, it would be really nice to have my old voice back.
• 23:56 Because before, when I was a kid, I hated my voice
• 24:00 so much that I covered it.
• 24:02 Like, I changed the tone and the sound of it.
• 24:05 I did not like that sound either, so I covered again,
• 24:09 but God, when I was in chapel and just praising God,
• 24:15 I felt something shift.
• 24:19 I felt my old voice come back, like, the voice I had
• 24:21 when I was, like, fourth or fifth grade.
• 24:23 The childish voice came back, and then over the week, he took
• 24:28 that childish voice and matured it into a young lady's voice.
• 24:32 Dickinson Deji: There was a man of God, the general
• 24:35 overseer of Redeemed Christian Church of God,
• 24:36 we came to Kenya to integrate a new parish.
• 24:40 And then he prayed, because we've had several miracles
• 24:43 according to Acts chapter 19, verse 12, where it said God
• 24:47 brought so many miracles through Apostle Paul,
• 24:50 and then the sick were healed of many of the diseases
• 24:52 because of the handkerchief, just by touching.
• 24:55 male: That's right, Scripture.
• 24:56 Dickinson: It's by faith, so we prayed on the handkerchief,
• 24:58 and the handkerchief was given to us.
• 25:00 I just kept the handkerchief inside my bag,
• 25:02 I didn't touch it.
• 25:04 We moved to Ghana, I think the hotel I was staying,
• 25:07 I had to go behind the hotel to buy bread, just bread.
• 25:12 So, I went into a coffee--no, a store,
• 25:17 another woman touched me and said, "Man of God,
• 25:20 can you pray for me?"
• 25:21 She said, "I've got three of my children upstairs," in the same
• 25:26 building where I was buying the bread, that they were sick,
• 25:30 they'd been hospitalized for the past two days, and I said,
• 25:33 "What happened?"
• 25:34 They said they had viruses and I don't want to lose them.
• 25:38 And the Holy Spirit started telling me that you have a
• 25:41 handkerchief given to you, so I was struggling in my heart.
• 25:45 It was my first trip to Ghana.
• 25:47 I thought why should I go over there?
• 25:48 Imagine if you go there now, you pray, and nothing happens,
• 25:51 but I had to build up my faith.
• 25:53 I took the handkerchief, and I moved down.
• 25:55 I get in there, I find all the children laying on the bed with
• 25:57 drapes hanging over them, and I had to play with the kids, sort
• 26:01 of, you know, a sense of humor, and I took out the handkerchief,
• 26:05 I held their hands and I prayed.
• 26:07 In the name of the Father, the name of the Son, and the name
• 26:09 of the Holy Ghost, let every form of infirmity in the life
• 26:11 of these children, the lot, take it off.
• 26:14 I prayed in faith, and then the kids were laughing,
• 26:18 they were excited, and I left.
• 26:22 The second day in the morning, the woman called me that praise
• 26:24 God, that my family had been discharged by the doctor.
• 26:30 David: If you are watching us right now, I know that you have
• 26:33 a testimony, you have a miracle that you've had in your life, I
• 26:36 encourage you to share it with somebody who needs to hear it.
• 26:39 Kirsten: Nothing changes a life more than hearing someone
• 26:42 else's story of coming to faith and story of miracles.
