Scripture: Deuteronomy 4 v 32.
29 years ago Jesus did something so amazing, which a few
of you may remember, that changed my life and ministry forever. Through tongues
and interpretation of tongues, four people were instructed to pray for Karen Ann
Quinlan who was in an irreversible coma in New Jersey USA 18000km from South
Africa.
We had an anointing to intercede at a deep level so we
gathered and prayed at Pauline's home. Pauline is a manifester. She was able to
help people with severe problems get free as demons would manifest through her.
She is like a door into the spirit realm through which these evil spirits exit. We were sure we would do something
similar for Karen Ann.
Nothing prepared us for the surprise we got. Pauline
manifested Karen Ann! Her body snapped into the twisted foetal shape that Karen
had shrunk to over her ten year coma. She fell to the floor. We all dived after
her and moments later Jesus spoke to me, "Talk to Karen, TALK to
her". We all spoke at once. Pauline's husband said, "Karen is
squeezing my hand!!"
I said, "It's Pauline!" He said, "I know
Pauline's squeeze, this is Karen!" We were all crying with the power of
Jesus in the room. Suddenly, Pauline was back with us, saying, "Brenda,
she knows your voice! We must go back and speak to her. She says she is not
deaf and please don't all talk at once. She wants to be saved." And she
was gone again and Karen was back, ready for the gospel.
Scripture: Acts 2 v 6; Acts 4 v 4.
The second visit was more relaxed and felt normal. Years
before I had been burdened for Karen Ann from time to time - concerned that she
would die without meeting Jesus. One night the Lord told me to share the gospel
with her as if she was in the room. So I did. Spoke out loud and told her about
Jesus. I really cried when Pauline said Karen knew my voice. I had never told
anyone about it. Anyway this second visit I asked her how many times she had
heard my voice. She tapped 17 taps on my hand. That would be about right!
We devised a series of taps if she needed more info or if
she was clear. Then we prayed together for her to be born again and the room
was full of God's glory. Then she began speaking in tongues - totally different
from Pauline's tongues. It was a most beautiful experience.
God gave me the two verses in Acts above. My initial
response was that she would wake up and people all over the world would give
glory to the Lord and 5000 would be saved. Later the Lord gave me His meaning
of those verses.
When this was noised abroad = Pauline and Karen became a
world-wide broadcast centre and everyone in coma heard the gospel in their own
language and 5000 dying souls got saved! Now that is the Holy Ghost and power!!
That's when I got Deuteronomy 4 v 32 - God did something that had never been
done before and outwitted the enemy who was sure all the comas were his. Glory
to the Lord.
Scripture: 2 Corinthians 9 v 8 - 15; John 14 v 12-14.
The next morning Pauline and I were alone just discussing
the events of the night before. Pauline told me that she could hear all Karen's
thoughts and feel what she feels physically. Karen's first thought when we
pitched up in her life was that she had died! Pauline said her skin felt like
bad prickly sunburn.
Before long Pauline said Karen is back let's go talk to
her! It was years before mobile phones but the best way to describe this
ongoing miracle is that Pauline's body was like a handheld phone into which
Karen's SIM was inserted. SIM equals identity. I had complete access to Karen
Ann who was ina deep irreversible coma thousands of miles away.
I had just greeted Karen when she made unmistakable hand
signals that shewanted paper and pen! Very impatient hand signals too. There
was no doubt who was boss. I was in a bit of a panic as I did not want to be
deceived by some bad spirit through automatic writing. I prayed while looking for a pen that if this
was not from God she would be gone when I got back.
She was still there and I will never forget her first
words "Bren thank you! I love you!" She told me that she had never
prayed for healing, just to be able to communicate. She was shocked that it was
nearly ten years since her coma began. She was also aware that there were
eavesdroppers listening in. I told her about the 5000 that got saved. She said
"they" were asking questions about Jesus she could not answer. So we
immediately set about becoming ministers to these other unseen new Christians.
It seemed the most normal thing to do. She listened to their questions, wrote
them down and I answered them. I spoke English but they heard me in their own
language. Multilingual, multinational counselling worldwide to people in coma
through Pauline's body with Karen's identity. It was just Jesus doing a
"greater work" through the power of the Holy Spirit.
Prayer: Father God thank You for the gift of faith that
enabled me to be part of this amazing miracle. Nothing is impossible with You.
I pray that every reader experiences Your presence around them. I worship You and bow down. What an amazing
miracle with continuous and abiding fruit from then till now. All the glory
goes to Jesus our Lord and King who saved a very lost sheep that night. Amen.
