Miraculous Encounters

Unlocking the Chains of Smoking When I was a young teenager, I was a regular nag when it came to griping about my Father’s long-running love affair with cigarettes.  I hated the cigarettes, I hated him smoking them, and I never missed an opportunity to complain to him about them.  Hiding them and sneaking matches out of…

I just sent out the testimony about my Grandmother’s near-death experience and how she told of seeing heaven, while doctors reported she was clinically dead….  I also included here poetry which she wrote about JESUS and would often recite….Well one of my really good friends, Lillian Bratteng, liked the poetry so much she set it…

So in my prayer time–I would remind HIM that in my life HE…

One time, I decided to pray to the Lord for serious help over a specific situation that was very stressful to me.  During my prayer, I mentioned a phrase I remembered from a story in the Bible about a father who approached Christ with a request to heal his son from demon possession.  Jesus stated that everything…

I want to talk about the HOLY SPIRIT WHO is literally dwelling inside us when we invite HIM in…  Some dear friends of mine came to Indianapolis on their way to Colorado from Atlanta, Georgia. I went to meet them at a hotel and I had parked and saw them getting out of their car…

During my prayer time, GOD gave me an amazing vision one morning of Heaven. I wasn’t expecting it or asking for it. But the LORD said HE was going to give me a glimpse of Heaven and show me a garden in Heaven. Well, my first thought was that I would see a quaint little…

One time I was with some friends at the Creation Museum in Florence, KY and they have a collection of Bible animals. I was captivated with the peacocks they had and I really wanted to see the beautiful tail-feathers of one of the males on display–but they just weren’t around…so I actually prayed to the…
