Subject: Jennifer's testimony of life


>      About two weeks ago, Jennifer, George and Vivian's only
> daughter, was admitted to a hospital in Tulsa, Oklahoma.  This was
> not the first time.  Over the 23 years of Jennifer's young life,
> she has been in that hospital dozens of times.  This year alone,
> she has probably been to this hospital eight or ten times.  Each
> stay is three to four weeks and then home again.  She is on
> literally 7,000 dollars worth of medications each month.  She
> generally is hooked up to an I V and often to oxygen even at home.
> The doctor she had, until this week, is the same doctor who told
> her parents, at age three months, that their daughter had cystic
> Fibrosis.  Interestingly enough, her mom once said that she felt
> the Lord had said to her, "Your daughter does not have Cystic
> Fibrosis."  Yet, for 23 years, everyone has said that she has CF.
>
>      Recently, the Lord spoke to George as he stayed in the
> hospital with his daughter, "I never said Jennifer had Cystic
> Fibrosis."  George said right back, "Then, Lord, what does she
> have?"  Jesus said, "Health and long life."  Sounds like God to
> me.  I'm going to write a book of testimonies some day called, It
> Sounds Like God.

>      Last Friday, George told me that he was driving the 100 miles
> to their home to spend the night.  He wanted time to relax and he
> needed to get their clothes washed.  I knew, but did not tell
> George, that being at home alone would prove to be a very
> difficult thing for him.  When he got home, he hadn't been there
> very long before he called me.  He reported that he was in bed.
> Not his bed but in his daughter's bed.  I have no idea why.  Well,
> I do know why but I'll save that for another time.  George also
> reported that he was terrified and was under the covers and
> shaking like a leaf due to the fear.  I knew, as I said, he would
> be attacked when he got home and so he was.  I could only talk
> with him for 20 minutes because I had a pre scheduled prayer
> session but I told him I would call him back in about an hour and
> a half.  I Did.
>
>      Something had totally changed in George during that 90 minute
> period of time.  When I called, his voice was calm and firm and
> determined and resolute.  He told me that his wife had called and
> that Jennifer wanted him to come back.  Jennifer had pneumonia in
> one lung.  Her fever had climbed, at times, to 103.6 and was
> normally staying around 101 degrees.  She had coughed for so long
> and so many days, she began coughing up blood at times.  She could
> not keep any food down.  They began feeding her through her I V
> tube to try and keep her strength up.  It wasn't helping.
>
>      Once George had driven back to the Tulsa hospital, he began
> explaining Biblical authority to his daughter.  George had told
> me, before leaving his home, that he felt the Lord had told him
> that it was time to stop praying for Jennifer and to begin
> exercising His God giving authority over his family.  George
> explained a lot of this to his daughter.  Then he began calling
> the demons to attention who were responsible for the lies spoken
> against his daughter especially, and against his family generally.
> He literally said three demons appeared near where he was
> standing.  Oh, really?  Yes, really.  He gave them instructions
> and he watched them file out of the hospital room when he
> finished.
>
>      George and his family also changed doctors.  Another younger
> doctor, who is a partner of the original doctor, is a Spirit
> filled Charismatic.  He lays hands on Jennifer every time he comes
> in to check on her and he prays for her when he is away from the
> hospital, too.  How's that for a doctor?
>
>      At this point, Jennifer is still in the hospital.  She is
> still on the lung transplant list.  Her fever is gone, her weight
> is up to 113 pounds, she keeps her food down, and she now is able
> to lay flat on her back at night when sleeping.  She talks on her
> cell phone to her friends and is very alert.  Oh, sure.  go right
> ahead.  Tell me it was the medical treatment which brought about
> the change, the weight gain, the happy spirit, and the improved
> outlook on life and the reduction in fever.  That's fine.  Believe
> whatever makes you feel better.  I choose to believe in the
> authority of the True Lord Jesus Christ and upon what Jesus said
> in His Word.  I don't have all the answers.  I don't own a
> crystal ball so I cannot predict the outcome other than what Jesus
> Himself told George; "She has health and long life."  This is not
> what her first doctor of 23 years was saying.  In fact, the word
> got back to George and his wife that one of the respiratory
> workers went and told the nursing staff that Jennifer wasn't going
> to make it.  That person got reported, by the way, and we bound
> and cursed those words as lies.  Why?  It isn't what Jesus said to
> George.

>      I could tell you much more but things seem to be happening so

> physician for 23 years, is amazed at the sudden turn around in
> Jennifer's health.

>      George told me that when he got back to the hospital, he read

> And when I passed by thee, and saw thee polluted in thine own

> life rather than death just like the Lord told His own children.
> Deuteronomy 30:19 says, "I call heaven and earth to record this
> day against you that I have set before you life and death,
> blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and
> thy seed may live."  I also told him to look up, and read to
> Jennifer, Psalm 118:17 which he did.  "I shall not die, but live,
> and declare the works of the LORD.  You have to be alive and
> breathing to fulfill that promise of declaring the works of the
> Lord.  Are these promises for today, you may ask?  If you have to
> ask, you don't believe.  Furthermore, when it comes to authority,
> Jesus said in Colossians 2:10, And you are complete in Him who is
> the head of all principality and power.  So, whom will you believe
> this day?  I hear someone saying, "But what if it doesn't work?"
> My answer is this.  What if it does?  ""but what if she dies?"
> What if she lives instead?  whose side are you on anyway?  "But
> what are you going to do if she dies?"  I am going to rejoice
> because she will be perfectly whole and living in Heaven with
> Jesus.  I am going to do the same thing if she lives.  Rejoice,
> that is, because God is true and every man is a liar, "Romans 4:3).
