A longtime friend of mine’s handicapped son is in intensive care. The child was sick with an infection but unbeknownst to the parents also had experienced several seizures. He ended up in a deep coma, barely hanging on to life.
This child has been completely handicapped since birth as has his sister with an identical neurological disease that is just devastating. This wicked disease essentially leaves them completely helpless and they are totally dependent upon their parents. As with many parents of special needs children, my friend and his wife have developed a deep abiding love for them that goes far beyond the norm. In fact their entire lives are centered on their kids.
So quite naturally my friend was frantic when his son entered the hospital. He told me that the news from the doctors was grim and he had been told that short of a miracle his son would never regain consciousness. This was déjà vu to him and brought back memories of long ago when doctors told him his son would likely never live past the age of five; however God had a plan and consequently both children have held on for some thirty years.
He told me that many people were praying and he had faith that God was going to see them through again. I prayed with him on the phone for some length of time and later that night I prayed again. The next morning I asked our Jesus Alliance prayer intercessory group to pray for them, and personally continued praying off and on throughout the day all of the way until I fell asleep.
That night I had a dream in which I saw four angels standing around the child’s bed in intensive care that seemed to be caring for the child and working on him. The room was dim, but the angels seemed to be lit up with a soft (incandescent in nature) looking golden hue. Their appearance was similar to paintings I’ve seen of angels and they had rather large white wings. They were clad in white.
The next morning bright and early I got a text from my friend and his son had awakened for the first time in 12 days. Hallelujah!
I am convinced that God gave me a peek at what actually transpired in that room that night. I have never seen angels in dreams or visions, but I have now, and I saw them nurturing the boy back to consciousness. Wow!
If you don’t believe in miracles you don’t believe in God. Jesus performed them on a daily basis. My friend loves the Lord with all of his heart and has a deep abiding faith that is unshakable. His friends at church and elsewhere are similarly resolute followers of Jesus. I have seen prayer work over and over again. Please take advantage of this gift given to us by the Alpha and Omega God whose love for us knows no bounds.
Have a great weekend. This is Easter Sunday weekend. GO TO CHURCH!
Jesus arose! HE LIVES! And because of His sacrifice we too can live forever in heaven.
BELIEVE in Him.

He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death’ or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.”
