Healing Testimonies
Not long after my daughter Naidia was born she was diagnosed with Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV). She was homebound for six extra weeks. Since then the doctors told us that her immune system would be awful and she probably would not be able to be a normal kid and play outside as much as she would like to. When we started attending NLWBC in January, 2010. Naidia had just gotten over having pneumonia for the 2nd time. We went to several specialists for the entire month of January. We joined NLWBC in February and attended a few of the healing classes. We began to speak healing and posted several healing scriptures on her wall, in her room and also the entire house. She learned quickly that speaking the scriptures would heal her body. Stephanie and Kyle both confessed with us that “This summer would be the best summer ever for Naidia”! Naidia began to speak this daily. Shortly after that she got worse and we had to take her to the hospital again and the doctor then put her on 5 different medications and told us that she could not go outside without a mask. Resurrection Sunday Naidia was able to attend church after 3 weeks of missing services, but had to use a mask to go outside and was only able to stay for 25 minutes before losing her breath. That following day, in healing class, my Aunt asked for special prayer for Naidia because at that point we all were miserable and Naidia was getting frustrated, but at the same time we know that God is a healer. Bro. Kyle and Sis Stephanie sent a healing cloth along with healing scriptures for us to confess over Naidia. We put that cloth in her pillow and prayed. By morning, Naidia was breathing very well and was showing no signs of distress. As the week progressed, Naidia, who was once on 5 medications a few days prior, had only needed 3 medications, but in a week's’time she dropped down to 1 medication. To date, Naidia is now on no medication and she was able to go outside this summer without getting sick. Since school has started this year, she has obtained perfect attendance. I would like to say that the healing school is awesome and now Naidia goes to school and prays for anyone that will let her whether they are sick or not.

My grandson's name is Patrick Chaz Digby. He's four years old.
Back in March, 2010, Pastors Steve and Faith Dennis prayed for Patrick's speech. Patrick has been diagnosed with Autism. Autisim is not an excuse, but it is a challenge.
Patrick's speech has improved by about 80% and is getting better and better every day. His teachers are saying that he has the potential to go to regular school next year.
We are excited about what God is doing for Patrick.
Patrick will Prevail!!!

My name is Carman Gibson and I have a testimony I would like to share. For as long as I can remember, I always had headaches. I remember as far back as high school having headaches. I never went to the doctor I just took over the counter medication. I remember one medication that I took regularly called Vanquish. As I got older it seemed like the headaches got worse. I now know that I was having migraine headaches. I started taking other medicines such as Goody Powders because they seemed like the only thing that would ease my headache, but people told me to stop taking them because it could cause harm to my stomach. Needless to say I did not stop taking the Goody Powders. As I entered into adulthood, I continued to have headaches but I still did not go to the doctor. I married in 1988 and started a family in 1993. During all this time the headaches continued. When I had a migraine I could not stand to smell food, I was sick at my stomach, and any noise made my head pound even worse. I would have Warren and Cameron bring me cold compresses to put on my head and that made it feel better. There were times when I missed work for 1 to 2 days because that's how long it took before the migraine would stop. I remember having a migraine so bad that I was out of work for 3 days. At one point when I was home in bed I remember thinking that I was going to have an aneurism which would cause me to have a stroke or even death. That scared me bad enough that I promised myself that I would go to the doctor and I did. He prescribed medication for me to take at the onset of a migraine. I still was not cured of the migraines. I continued to have them on a regular basis. The year was 2001 and a new church was birthed in Rome by Pastors Steve and Faith Dennis. This church was called New and Living Way Bible Church. My sister had attended the church and had invited me to come on several occasions. I finally decided to go and on this particular Sunday I had a headache. At the end of the service the pastors asked if anyone needed prayer for anything and my sister motioned for me to come up to receive prayer for my headaches. I hesitantly walked up and I was prayed over for my headaches. After the service was over, I received a tape that was full of healing scriptures and was told to listen to it and confess my healing. At this point in my life, my faith in healing was non-existent. I did not think or believe that no matter how much I listened to the tape or confessed that I was healed, that I would be healed. I listened to the tape often in my car and at home. At the onset of my next migraine, I remember putting the tape in the cassette player at my house and I walked around in my living room repeating the healing scriptures that were on the tape. The migraines still did not stop, but they seemed to not last as long. By the time the church moved to Riverbend Mall, I didn't seem to be having as many headaches, but I would still have one every now and then. I remember being prayed for again while we were at the mall. I continued to meditate on those healing scriptures and was now starting to believe that by the stripes of Jesus I am healed. We left Riverbend Mall and set up church in Lindale. By now I was keeping a closer account of how many headaches I was having which was not very many. My faith was getting stronger and stronger and I believed that I would be healed. Time went on until one day I noticed that I had not had a headache. I kept track and for a 9 month stretch I did not have a headache. That turned into a year without a headache and that turned into two, three years without having a migraine. I was healed of those awful migraine headaches. My faith in the healing power of God had grown beyond measure. I am a living testimony of the healing power of God. I know without a doubt that by the stripes of Jesus I was healed. A person can go to all the doctors they want but until they believe and confess that they are healed, then they won't be healed. I went to the doctors and even had medication to take but it wasn't until I started to believe and confess the Word of God, that I was healed. Warren and Cameron had gotten so used to me having headaches that when they would see me resting they would ask if I had a headache and of course I didn't, I would just tell them that I am only resting or trying to take a nap.
