Miracle
Testimony
By: Leif Inge Vegesund,
Alesund, Norway MULTIPLE
SCLEROSIS WAS TAKING
MY LIFE - then
Jesus
Healed Me !
Leif Inge testifies in Max
Solbrekken's Crusades in
MOLDE & FORDE, NORWAY (September, 1998)
15
YEARS ON CRUTCHES & 2 YEARS IN A WHEELCHAIR
My
only desire now is to tell everyone the GOOD NEWS. I am
now well - thanks to Jesus Christ!
MULTIPLE
SCLEROSIS WAS TAKING MY LIFE
I
couldn't feed or dress myself. My wife had to help me with
everything. And before I got healed, I could only stay up for 15
minutes or 1/2 hour each day. Multiple Sclerosis was taking my
life.
My
wife is a Christian and enjoyed listening to Christian radio
programs, even though I didn't like them. She would have to go
into the basement to listen to them, so as not to upset me.
One
day about 6 1/2 years ago, she was listening to Pastor Hakon
Nilsen's New Life Radio Program and heard two evangelists - Fred
Bernsten and Henning Breivik - share their testimonies of how
God had healed them. A team from Skien was with them and told
listeners that they were available to minister to people in
their homes.
DIVINE
HEALING WAS NEW TO MY WIFE & ME
Unbeknownst
to me, she called the radio station and asked them to pray for
me and they agreed to visit our home. When my wife came into the
bedroom, she never said a word, which was unusual. That seemed
odd because she always had something to say.
When
I said: "You have been in the basement listening to that
Christian radio station and two people are coming to see us.
You'd better help me wash, dress and get ready."
We
both were shocked at what I had just said, since I had no
knowledge of what had happened! Only God could have revealed
that to me as well as change my attitude.
JESUS
CHRIST IS THE SAME YESTERDAY, TODAY & FOREVER
They
witnessed to me and kept repeat that JESUS CHRIST IS THE SAME
yesterday, today and forever. They told me Jesus Christ
still heals the sick and that I should feed on God's Word &
DEVOUR GOD'S WORD.
I
didn't feel any different after they left, but for days all I
could hear in my spirit was, "Feed on God's Word, read
God's Word and digest God's Word."
I
NEEDED TO FEED ON THE WORD OF GOD
One
day I asked my wife to buy me a small pocket New Testament so I
could read God's Word, as I was unable to hold a Bible. I
suddenly realized when I got the New Testament that I could read
the small print. A miracle had happened, because I had been
unable to see clearly my neighbor's house 40 meters away.
Multiple
Sclerosis had taken away my sight and my speech as well - only
my family members knew what I was saying. And I was so
susceptible to colds, that I spent most winters in the basement
so that I wouldn't catch colds which my children would come
down with. Twice I caught a cold and it took 9 months just to
get the fever down! Suddenly, I could read the fine print in my
New Testament.
A
great hunger for God's Word entered my heart and I read and
reread the New Testament. I began to understand that if Jesus
Christ was really alive and the same yesterday, today and
forever, HE COULD VERY EASILY HEAL ME LIKE HE HEALED THE PEOPLE
I READ ABOUT IN THE NEW TESTAMENT.
About
3 months after the visit from the Team members, I noticed a
small ring of sweat forming around my wrist and also around my
neck, and I knew that God was healing me. And I began to praise
and glorify His Name! You see, I HAD NOT BEEN ABLE TO SWEAT FOR
YEARS and when I got really warm I had to take lukewarm showers,
to slowly lower my temperature or I would begin to shake
convulsively!
I
GOT OUT OF THE WHEELCHAIR AND OFF THE CRUTCHES
From
then on I began to get better, leaving the wheelchair and
finally the crutches! And today I am well. Praise God forever.
Medical
Science is baffled by God's miracle in my body. My life is
drastically changed as I now live normally. I have been on
several missionary journeys to Ukraine, as chauffeur for the
large tractor trailer. And I had the privilege of
chauffeuring Pastor Max Solbrekken during his crusades in our
district as well as to MOLDE & FORDE.
My
physio therapist - who is a believer, was amazed when I told
him that I had climbed a mountainous range that I frequented as
a boy. The very next week he reported back to me that he had
tried to climb the same mountain and was unable to do so! That
really set him off rejoicing and praising God.
The
two evangelists who were guests on the New Life Radio Program
were Fred Berntsen & Henning Breivik. Fred was healed of
five diseases in Max Solbrekken's crusade in Skien in 1987. He
had been afflicted with heart trouble (angina) for 25 years,
asthma for 15, sugar diabetes for 10 years and arthritis.
THERE
IS HOPE & HEALING FOR EVERYONE WHO IS SICK OF ANY DISEASE
And
Henning Breivik was healed in Max Solbrekken's meeting in 1968
of a serious inner ear problem affecting his balance. To God be
the glory! There is Hope & Healing for everyone who is sick,
of any disease including multiple sclerosis!
GOD'S
MIRACLES
ARE FOR TODAY
By:
Pastor Max Solbrekken
The
Bible says: "Jesus Christ, the same yesterday
and forever." (Hebrews 13:8)
MARTIN
LUTHER the great reformer said,
"How often has it happened, and still does, that devils
have been driven out in the name of Christ; also by calling on
His Name and prayer, and the sick have been healed." JOHN
WESLEY, founder of the
Methodist Church, stated: "I believe that God can open the
eyes of the blind, cause the lame to walk, and the deaf to hear,
if men will have faith in God; stand on the word of God, and
pray according to the faith that God hath given them, God will
do the things He said He would because He is a never-changing
God." A.B.
SIMPSON, founder of Christian
& Missionary Alliance, declared, "If ever there was an
age where the world needed the witness of God's supernatural
working, it is in this day of unbelief and Satan's power." "Therefore,
we may expect, as the end approaches, that the Holy Ghost will
work in the healing of sickness, in the casting out of demons,
in remarkable answers to prayer, in special and wonderful
providences, and in such form as may please His sovereign will
to an unbelieving world."
Dr.
CHARLES H. MAYO, Mayo Brothers
Clinic, said: "Christian healing has passed beyond the
stage of experience and its value cannot be questioned. Spiritual healing is no longer the hope of a few but the belief
and practice of a large and rapidly increasing number of
person."
JESUS
CHRIST said: "If thou
canst believe; all things are possible to him that believeth."
(Mark 9:23)
"And
these signs shall follow them that believe; In My name shall
they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; They
shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it
shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they
shall recover." (Mark 16:17-18)
MAX
SOLBREKKEN, God's humble
servant, says: "That God is a healer is no secret.
That his Word has amazing saving, healing and creative power is
well known. But that his power to save, heal and deliver
is readily available at absolutely NO COST, is not widely
known."
Most
people believe that there are strings attached, a price to pay,
good works to do, a guru to follow, and that God favors only a
few.
DIVINE
HEALING IS A GIFT FROM GOD TO THOSE WHO ARE FEARFUL, HURTING,
SICK & DISEASED
Divine
healing is a gift from God to those who are fearful, hurting,
sick and diseased. And He offers it freely through the death
& resurrection of His Son Jesus Christ, by Whom He has
defeated sin, sickness, fear, death & Satan. GLORY
TO GOD FOREVER.
WOULD
YOU LIKE
TO RECEIVE JESUS CHRIST INTO YOUR HEART TODAY?
PRAY
THIS PRAYER NOW TO RECEIVE JESUS CHRIST IN YOUR HEART
"Dear
Heavenly Father,
I
ask for Thy great mercy and grace. I acknowledge my
sinfulness and confess that I cannot save myself. I
believe the GOOD NEWS that Jesus paid the penalty for m sins,
through His vicarious death on the cross."
"I
believe that Jesus Christ rose from the dead according to the
Scriptures and He has the power and authority to forgive my sins
and save my soul. I repent of my sins and am willing to
forsake them with the help of the Holy Spirit."
"I
now renounce the devil and all his works and all his ways and I
now receive Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour, my Master and my
God. Come into my heart and save me now, for Christs'
sake. Thank you Lord, for saving my soul. In Jesus
precious' name, I pray." Amen.
