Real testimonies of miracles at New Life Church
This Sunday the challenge was issued - share a real miracle of God's hand in your life. What a response was given!
We went from both losing our jobs during the pandemic to business owners in less than a week. The business is so successful, it’s booked out until February and added two employees. We are blessed more than we could ever dream. |
God brought me out of a horrible place in life and brought me to my perfect partner to do life with. There is now more love and happiness than I thought possible. Additionally, my son has thankfully entered rehab. Amen! |
I’ve had constant provision with my job. Another miracle I’ve encountered was as a child when my mom was a single parent and we often didn’t have meat due to the cost. One night I was angry and wanted meat. The next week at church someone brought bags of meat to the single moms! |
Many times God has met my needs. Once was after my baby was born and I fell into a coma for a couple of days then I woke up feeling fine! This happened after I was in the NLC Christmas play and had played the part of a lady who gave birth, fell into a coma, and when the church prayed she awoke! |
I experienced a back pain that sent me to the floor. This was very debilitating as I had to literally crawl to move, barely able to even turn over in bed. While alone in the living room I cried out to the Lord. All I said was, “God!” He heard me, knew what was wrong and I was instantly healed! This happened almost 40 years ago and my back is still as strong as ever--I am 74! Praise God from whom all blessings flow!
My kidneys have been healed by God. Hallelujah! The more I give to God financially, the more he gives to me. He always provides more than I can imagine. He is always faithful! |
My answer to prayer is that I am getting a new place to live! |
My miracle was watching my mother readied for heaven. It was a difficult and horrendous fight with cancer--but she used Tylenol for her pain, which was astounding. She entered heaven on Pentecost after 40 days in hospice. |
God set me free from so many addictions. When I asked him into my heart in true surrender, I saw him show me how much he truly loves and cares for us, even when we resist him so often. His grace is beyond my understanding. |
I grew up in the church. My father was a worship leader and I sang with him most Wednesday nights. So when he died when I was 19, I stopped believing in God. I married an atheist and have struggled for many years since. My husband is a combat veteran with mental illness and I have been taking care of him and my family and burning out. As a desperate act to save my marriage and family, we joined a Christ-based combat recovery group and slowly have been working our way back to peace. Still working on my belief in God and hoping to return back to worship where it all started for me. I am here at church now so something must be stirring in my soul.
I was lonely, alone, burdened by life. Then I found NLC and life changed. I am determined to never be lonely or alone again. Now I know Jesus and that cannot be taken from me. Thank you Lord God for the guidance of New Life church and the people within. Despite experiencing disappointment in a failed marriage, deep hurt and living a life I hadn’t pictured, I am in a season to seek God further. My faith and relationship with him has never been stronger. Putting him first and letting him fully be in control of life, has set me free from anger and has made me able to forgive. I was healed of migraines 20+ years ago and also, recently, my daughter was, too. I am so thankful all the time. |
God miraculously healed our son on his deathbed! My family lived in a very small town. By the time I was in the 8th grade, I was depressed. I often wished for an out. I once cried out to God to take my life then and there. About 9 or 10 years later, God brought my husband and I together. God got me accepted to nursing school in Denver and my time there changed my life. I was out of the country for a mandatory, in-person interview. I was 20 miles away from internet access for a Skype interview. My video froze the whole interview. I was given no scholarship money and couldn’t afford to pay tuition. The miracle of God changed the course of my life drastically-praise Him! |
About a month ago, my fiance came to my place for dinner and a movie date with our children. I decided to have his children stay with me overnight so he could go back home and have some time to work on projects that he needed to get done and I could spend some quality time with the children the next day. It got pretty late and he decided it was time for him to go. I always have him call or text when he arrives at home so I know he is safe. He lives about 30-35 minutes away. About 12 minutes after he left I got a phone call and immediately my stomach felt sick and I knew something wasn't right. He called me and said he had just wrecked the car but he's ok. He had fallen asleep, went off the road, hit the guardrail, missed a huge billboard sign with 2 poles, swerved over the hill and behind the sign. He did all that -- the impact and reaction time being only a matter of seconds. He is lucky to be alive. He definitely had an angel with him. He walked away with a few scratches and a sore thumb from the steering wheel airbags deploying. I thank God for his safety and being there with him. Also the fact that his children stayed with me that night. God works in mysterious ways.
The Lord saved my grandson and my daughter when they both were facing very serious health problems. I am ever so thankful for his love. |
The LORD has directed me to a supplement that has helped to clear up major brain fog that I was struggling with. I have gone from struggling to put sentences together to being able to hold a conversation. |
Our financial picture wasn’t where we needed it to bet. The Lord saw our need and came through. Now we have all of our needs taken care of, including the ability to redecorate some of the rooms in our home. We praise God for this! |
Having lost my late wife and, recently, my daughter, God has given me strength and victory in this dark time. My faith is in him. |
I had a miscarriage with my first pregnancy. I struggled to trust God after that. Mostly with his timing. With faith. After months and months of trying to conceive again, I finally truly gave it to God and began to trust in his timing. I then found out I was 5 weeks pregnant. I struggled then to connect and believe this would not end in loss again. My baby was born not breathing but was quickly breathing again thanks to the medical team and God answering prayer. She was my miracle. I asked God and he heard my prayers and blessed me with a healthy baby.
I was let go from my job and God provided a home ready for me in Oregon. God saved my younger brother. He was a pedestrian crossing the street and struck by a vehicle going 55mph. He should have died, but lived. Doctors said he would be in a vegetative state and not move or speak. The medical professionals encouraged us to take him off life support. He awoke a few weeks after his accident, moved, and after 3.5 years of prayer he started talking. My continued prayer is that he will one day walk again! |
I just feel so blessed and can’t even find the words to express my thankfulness for his provision. I have peace through him. I can find this in all circumstances. Thank you, Jesus! God saved and healed my husband who fell off our roof. He had 3 broken/fractured bones. All of the breaks were clean and required no surgery. |
God restored our marriage by taking things out of both of our lives that needed to be removed. God gave us a way to pay off more debt than you can imagine, quicker than we could imagine. These were answered prayers. Dig your heels in and stand strong on who God is. God is faithful. God keeps His promises.
God has prepared me for my move and opened doors when it didn't seem possible. My car broke down and he provided the finances to fix it. Then when my property manager mixed up my move out day, God gave me peace to handle it. I am amazed how much He cares for me & has prepared me for the next chapter of my life. God has healed old hurts in my family and has caused our relationships to reconcile and thrive. |
I’ve been praying for emotional healing for over 40 years. Always dwelling on the bad things that have happened to me. I could’ve been a different, better person if what happened to me had never happened. Last Sunday, the Lord told me that I have been blaming him for years and I needed to forgive him and myself and move forward with him or else I would be hindering him from any more blessings in my life. I cried and cried and asked for him to forgive me. I didn’t want my Christian life to stay stunted any longer. |
So often the 23rd Psalm has encompassed me. I, at times, am smothered in anxiety; an elephant sits on my chest. As an overwhelming week hit in so many ways, I leaned into God and slowly recited the first part of the Psalm. The Lord is my shepherd. He leads me to the refreshing, calming green pastures and calm streams. He restores my soul. Yes, He does!
Seven years ago I fell and broke my right ankle. I cried out, “Oh God, what am I going to do now?” I immediately felt his presence, his hand on my back, his voice in my head saying “You’re not alone. I am with you.” Everything is healed and working well. I had enough money to pay all of my bills and had a friend move in to help for the long haul. |
I visited my cousins last week who I have not seen in over a decade. They and my parents and I connected well, and one of my cousins hugged my dad and cried with him. She has been through a lot in her life. I think she needed that, and it was beautiful to see my dad being a father figure in her life. I think God is working on her heart and I am hoping and praying for more healing of her past. |
