Testimonies From RECENT events

The week at the Healing Prayer School is one of the most significant events I have been part of since becoming a Christian 38 years ago. It became evident I had much in my upbringing that hindered me from closely connecting with my heavenly Father. Each day I received prayer asking The Lord to heal me from the damage I was subjected to by my family (I am now 70). I finished the week knowing my Father had met with me revealing much of what had been blocking my closeness with Him, giving me renewed hope for the future and a conviction He is close to me when I pray, and I can trust Him for the outcome.

The prophetic word of someone who needed to be released from a corset of shame was what I needed to hear and tears of healing started to flood out of me. It was a deep deep cleansing of my spirit that Jesus did in that moment and the day after I woke up lighter without the burden that I had carried all my life. I had been set free and know I truly felt FREE indeed.

I have spent my life being a people pleaser; desperately searching for approval and love. Even my husband could not fill those empty spaces inside me. The retreat this week showed me how God wants to cherish and nurture me like a small child and make a fuss of me, making me feel special and loved – all the things I had missed as a youngster. I think I had shut my emotions down, but I felt the Lord re-awaken them. I felt His presence and loving touch as if he was holding me and caressing me. This is so wonderful. To be able to rest in His love without trying to please Him is so restful and satisfying. Praise the Lord!!

I had prayer for what I had recognised as a pattern of hugging into the arm of the sofa, which began during the lockdowns for Covid. What came up was this being linked to my main friendship, emotional support being lost as she moved back to be with her mother at that time. Another layer of the single life I had not comprehended the significance of. Later that day I was prayed for in regard to the ‘critical God’ and words spoken/written about me throughout my school years. As I was prayed for I had a picture of those words coming out of my heart and flowing into the heart of Jesus. As xx continued to pray she had the words ‘well done’ and I saw these words come out of Jesus’ heart into mine.
