MIRACLE.... RIGHT IN FRONT OF OUR FACE!!!

When you witness a miracle, it is hard to keep quiet about it, and I am the type of person that can't keep such wonder to myself any way. That is why I have to share the MIRACLE GOD performed for my family right in front of our face. I have always known GOD for the GREAT KING, MOUNTAIN MOVER, EARTH SHAKER, DELIVERER HE is and now this. It will be a giant task to try and word what has occurred in my family, but here goes. Recently I received a call from my brother that our brother was in the hospital and that he has been there, at that time 8 days, and now he is 'unresponsive' he is in a coma and "we (doctors) have done all we can, get here asap if you hope to see him alive". Well the timing on something like this is never good and I was so unprepared, as we all were. But I did what I knew to do and that is to pray and seek GOD's mercy and of course HIS guidance. I don't know anything else, but to go to THE ONE who hears me when I call, that is all I know to do.  He began to speak softly to my heart and said "get ME to him" . I understood but wondered how was I going to travel to Georgia,  I was unemployed, seeking a job to help me get through the summer months, and my last paycheck was all but spent. So I prayed and things began to come together and we traveled south, not knowing what we would see when we arrived.  God had put together all arrangements from travel, to lodging, and all meals and other expenses associated with long distance travel. I had nothing to contribute, but to show up at the designated spot. I knew HE meant for me to go and take HIM to my brother. He said so and made all arrangements.   We arrived and went to the hospital and our hearts were not prepared for what we saw.  It looked as though we were in time to say final good-byes. My heart ached in my chest as we called out to him trying to wake him. He was on a ventilator and in a coma after suffering a massive seizure in which he chewed his tongue and damaged his throat. His brain was without oxygen and he went into the coma. 8 days when we arrived. He has other life threatening issues we knew of and others we learned while there. It was overwhelming and too big for us to deal with.  We cried. God made it possible for the 3 of us to travel together, my older brother, my beautiful inside and out young adult niece, me.  3 faith- filled people, although we were shaken at the sight of him, as though he were already dead.  But the Bible says we walk by faith NOT by sight (2 Cor. 5:7)so we had to look over what we saw and look up to Jehovah Ropha -He who heals. Soon my brother said "alright lets pray". We held hands around his bed, and each one of us began to pray and cry out to our FATHER IN HEAVEN. One by one we put this crisis in the hands of HE WHO HAS THE WHOLE WORLD IN HIS HANDS, GOD ALMIGHTY, JEHOVAH ROPHA, THE HEALER.HE said bring ME to him and that is what we did, much like Jairus did when he sought out JESUS in the crowd to bring HIM to his sick, near death, dead daughter (Matt. 9:18-24).As I bent down to whisper into my brothers ear and speak to his spirit, I heard GOD tell me what to say to him: "speak to me from your heart, you can't use your mouth right now, so call me from your heart and I will heal you". He was on a ventilator and in a coma, only a heart can speak under those conditions.  So I told him this and laid hands on him and told him GOD will heal him. We left after a long while and later  that night in my room, I was afraid to sleep, fearing that we would get the "call" that you don't want to get. My faith was strong, but I must admitt, my eyes and what they saw overpowered me. I prayed that night , cried, cried some more and felt sorry for a brother that I should have been closer to, but love nonetheless. The next morning we got a call from the hospital that our brother was awoke off the ventilator and shouting at the staff that he wanted to leave the hospital, NOW!  WHAT?? Are you sure it is our brother, we asked? Get here and calm him down he is raising hell and wants to leave.  We dressed quickly and rushed to Memorial and sure enough he was off the ventilator, cussing up a storm as much as someone with 4 stitches in his tongue and in the back of his throat can cuss. He could hardly talk but we understood what he was saying and it seemed like a different person than just hours ago. Night and Day transformation. The doctors and nurses were as amazed as we were!! We all looked at one another and realized that we all witnessed a MIRACLE RIGHT IN FRONT OF OUR FACES. How good is our GOD?  WHO CAN BRING LIFE FROM DEATH? WHO CAN TURN THE TIDE AROUND IN THE SEA? WHO CAN SAY ARISE AND SHINE, FOR THY LIGHT HAS COME AND THE GLORY OF THE LORD HAS RISEN UPON THEE? (Isaiah 60:1) I began to go into complete and all consuming worship mode as I praised GOD for HIS GOODNESS, HIS MERCY, HIS AMAZING GRACE, THE LOVINGKINDNESS THAT OVERTAKES US, HIS MIRACULOUS HEALING POWER. Since then each day my brother has gotten stronger and stronger. GOD is working on him from inside, as his nurses would tell us that they heard him cry out to JESUS, and especially the nurse that was on staff when they brought him in, he said to  us that he was almost gone then. He said you was calling Jesus in your sleep last night. So we were in Georgia for 7 days and we had to leave and return to our lives and situations, but as of this posting, my brother has been released from the hospital after 20 days in the hospital : 12 in ICU,  2 days in step-down unit  and 6 days on the floor in his own room.  What a MIRACLE. We watched GOD work this MIRACLE RIGHT IN FRONT OF OUR FACE  and other things happened as well, our family was united and that in and of itself is a miracle of sorts. We saw a side of eachother that we had not known, and we met new  people that were in the family that we did not know. I was overwhelmed on so many levels but the one that brings me to my knees everytime is knowing (with this kind of proof) that GOD HEARS WHEN WE CALL HIM AND HE ANSWERS!!! Jerm.33:3  Praise GOD !!!  GOD BLESS ALL YOUR PEOPLE!!!  JESUS, THE SWEETEST OF NAMES!!!
