I am a pastor of of a church in Karachi that belongs to CCCI (Christ's Commission Church International) in Pakistan.
From April 5th to the 15th, 2013, CCCI hosted Pastors' Seminars and Miracle Healing Crusades here in Pakistan with Pastor Taesik Gil, who ministers to Daejeon Manmin Church of the United Holiness Church of Jesus Christ, Korea.
On this mission trip, Pastor Gil was to preach in the Pastors' Seminars and Miracle Healing Crusades in Lahore, Sheikhupura, Multan, and Karachi. A spiritual awakening and many divine healing works occurred, which glorified God.
I used to be too weak to stand even for 30 minutes. But Mrs. Primrose Samson, Chairperson of CCCI entrusted publicizing and managing preparations for Morning United Crusade for churches in Karachi to me. It was her consideration for me to be healed of my disease and glorify God by my showing faith and pleasing God.
From the beginning of 2013, I had often had a fever and also had aches all over my whole body. On March 7, 2013, I was diagnosed with hepatitis C. The hospital told me that I would have to get a shot every other day for eight months. After I had the injection, aftereffects followed and they were terrible. I suffered from high fever such that I could not get out of bed and my whole body was in pain. I also felt pressure on my chest as though I had something heavy on me. When the symptoms had lasted for a month I could no longer endure the pain.
On April 8, at dawn, I called Mrs. Samson and said that I wanted to stop getting the shots and to be healed by faith. She comforted me and prayed and my family also agreed to my decision. Then, she committed the arrangement of the crusade held in the morning to me and helped me receive the answer just as I had confessed.
On April 11, at night, my family, church members, and I went to Jinnah International Airport Karachi to welcome Pastor Gil who was coming as the speaker for Pastors' Seminars and Miracle Healing Crusades. At that time, I had no energy so I could not carry his baggage.
At 1 o'clock in the morning on April 12, 2013, Mrs. Primrose Samson talked to Pastor Gil about my disease, hepatitis C. He prayed for me with the handkerchief of power on my head.
Then, an astounding thing occurred! I came home and slept very comfortably. When I woke up, I felt refreshed and all pains were gone. I was actually able to run up stairs. Hallelujah!
On Sunday, on April 14, 2013, the Morning Crusade for churches in Karachi was held under the host of CCCI in Baptist Bible Church ministered to by Pastor Khurram Gill. Pastor Taesik Gil preached amid countless people. There were so many that they filled the sanctuary and the church yard. Many people had to return to their homes because there was no more room for them.
After preaching, he prayed from the stage for the sick. A lot of people were healed and received answers and glorified God. I also received the prayer with faith and I became even healthier. With a thankful heart, my family saw off Pastor Gil at the airport when he left Pakistan.
Now, anemia that had been caused by hepatitis C has disappeared and my face looks well again. I came to eat well and have become healthy. I am performing my ministry with happiness. I give all thanks and glory to God who healed and blessed me.
