Testimonies

We are regularly seeing God move in the supernatural through salvation, healings, signs and wonders.

Here are some of the testimonies we have recently recevied:

Date: 10 February 2010

"I was talking with my temporary secretary yesterday. She was telling me that one of her friends had just got saved and was being baptised and she went to see the baptism. She was describing some of the stuff that happened in the church including someone speaking in tongues (which was the first time she had heard it and thought it was weird!). I said if she thought that was weird she should hang around for when God started to heal people.

So she asked could I do anything about her back as she was suffering badly from sciatica. I said sure - and simply released healing, commanded the body to come into order. I then asked how she would know if she was healed. She said when she woke in the morning as the pain woke her up early every morning and she had to get out of bed. She said that if she was woken up by her alarm she would know that the sciatica had gone. I said fine lets catch up tomorrow.

Anyway she came into the room this morning "it worked! I woke up with my alarm this morning and no pain". I replied "I thought it might". Isn't God good."

My Testimony, which I would like to share but I am a little shy when it comes to the stage but really want to share it as I believe it may help other and inspire them.

When I finished my undergraduate studies I tried seeking a trainee job in Biomedical Sciences, which was the degree I had just done. I tried many places up and down the whole of the UK but to no avail. I did attend some interviews but did not succeed, then I thought I have to try and get some experience. I thought I would look for a MLA job which is a medical laboratory assistant, a job which I knew was lower in position since with a degree I would actually be over qualified for (James 4:10). I trusted in God and was looking for this new position still finding very few jobs advertised (Luke 17:6). Then I thought I will volunteer myself for some work experience, which I did get at a hospital three times a week, thanks be to God. Whilst I was there I really enjoyed myself and fitted in well with the work and people. I had liaised with the man who helped me to get this position letting him know I was keen to move up further etc. He then said they were looking for a permanent MLA in the department in the floor above in Microbiology. I honestly do not even remember filling out the application form but going for an interview with the manager and training officer. Let me tell you that this was the easiest interview ever!! It was more like a chat than anything else and after 20 minutes they said they would love to take me on as a permanent MLA and offered me the job straight away. I could not believe it, thanking God all the way back to my car and smiling non-stop. That all I was looking for was a start on the ladder and I knew God would do the rest.

Whilst working I was still seeking and praying for a job as a trainee BMS, which once complete would make a State Registered Biomedical Scientist. I applied for countless jobs all over the UK, even as far as Wales and Scotland, all I wanted was to do my training so I could complete my Portfolio. After working a year as a MLA I was feeling down that I could not go further even after doing my degree, I decided with some pushing from my parents to do my master. I really had no clue as to what I wanted to specialise in so I choose a very broad topic which now sounds like a mouthful, Molecular Pathology and Genomics!!!

So whilst a MLA I started to do my Masters, which is where my next blessing came by. I applied for a course which was expensive at the time since I was not earning a lot and even more so my brother had a changed his mind with his studies and was also going back to Uni to start something totally different. Thus, timing wise was not great in terms of money. One month into my masters I was asked to see my head of department. Thinking I have already failed something I was really worried but it was just a general chat?? I thought okay and left it as that. One afternoon while getting the train I met her again and she started chatting and said I’ve been meaning to let you know that you have won a bursary!! In my head I was like what is a bursary? I have heard of the term but never knew what it meant, she went further and explained that my Master course is going to be paid for and that also included my travel. My heart by now was racing and I could not think. She said they only had two to offer and one was for me! I was like ohhhh myyyy God! In my head I was like why me?? I had never won anything in my life apart from a camera in a raffle at high school I just knew God had made a way for me and was not by luck or chance. He knew my situation and made a way, thank you Lord. Gods timing was perfect and all worked out for me. Whilst on the train platform I was just thanking God speaking in tongues crying laughing all the same time.

I continued to work and do my masters then I came to another point where I needed the Lord. I was finding it very difficult in the last stages of my masters to handle work and write and do my lab work. The nights didn’t seem long enough to do it whilst keeping an eye out for my trainee job too. It came to the point where I had to give up my job so that I could complete and pass my Masters. I handed in my notice and concentrated finishing my project.

This is where God makes a way in my life again so quieting and behind the scenes He works and His timing was spot on. The Lord knowing that I didn’t have a job works his miracle. One day whilst out I received a call from a hospital I had applied for ages ago and to be honest forgotten about. He basically phoned to say that they had received my application for the trainee post along with the hundreds of others and said that the post they advertised for had not been taken and so they were re-posting the vacancy and that I should apply since I missed the deadline before because they had to close it early because of the number of applicants. At that point I knew it was a call driven by God. It seemed so strange, I had never met this man or talked to him on the phone, but was advising me to reapply. I did it immediately with faith and prayed I would be successful and get an interview at least. I didn’t hear anything for a while but kept faith since I know the NHS vacancies take at least 3 months to process.

Whilst in my final term I attended the interview which again was very easy and I had a feeling that this is mine, my second easiest interview after all the other grilling ones I had attended. I now get a call from the manager who offers me the training job I was longing for, thanks be to God. I was over the moon, ecstatic shouting and praising God. But here came the slight problem of timing. I had given up my previous job because I could not handle the work load and now I have a job offer I just cannot refuse even though I am doing my final dissertation. I thought to myself Lord what do I do? This is what I've been waiting for but I know I cannot handle both. I just had to apply my faith and be bold and ask is there a possibly I could delay my start date. I know people may think are you mad after all this you are going to turn down this job!! I said to him unfortunately this is my situation and would love to take the job but I cannot accept it now at this time and would he mind waiting. To my first question he replied ‘I will call you back,’ and I thought my chance may have gone. He phoned a second time and asked how long I would need to finish my project etc I said at least 6 weeks. Again I hear people say are you crazy, but I knew myself. He called back a week later to confirm that I may start part time in 6 weeks to ease me in and after that be a permanent trainee BMS. God answered my prayers! Amazed, shocked, blessed words cannot describe. He is a blessing in my life, I have no doubt (Ecclesiastes 3:1)

I graduated from my masters and straight after started my trainee job. The other blessing was the location of the hospital where I will be doing my training. Like I mentioned before I searched the whole of the UK, God blessed me again and got me a job at a hospital, which is based in the borough that I live in. I can proudly say that I have finished my training and am now State Registered BMS, and have just stared my specialist portfolio which I know the Lord will see me through. (Ephesians 2:10)

Writing this all down just takes my breath away I know God has got His hands on my life. I was not brought up as a Christian whilst I was little but I thank God that I know Him now. Even though I may not have known Him then I know that He knew me and was taking care of me. (Jeremiah 1:5) So many little things I thought back then where by luck and chance but now know it was the All Mighty God.

I feel protected by Him and so loved. His blessings just flow one after the other….(John 1:16)
