Great Awakening Tour City #14 Maui, Hawaii

I had a problem with face to face witnessing. I used to be scared but when you just let God move and take control and just read the powerful card they listen to you and take it to the heart before you know it they are on the path to Heaven. By just saying a simple prayer that you led them into.

I began attending The River on October 2006, towards the end of my pregnancy. It was during the October Holy Spirit Weekend. That night we rushed out because I felt labor coming on. I did not deliver until weeks later, I was so moved by emotional, spiritual and physical impact I received here that I continued to attend. Months later when my son was 3 months my son was diagnosed with a condition in which the openings in his skull seal prematurely and cause the head brain to grow deformed. He needed immediate surgery. I was desperate, I prayed to the Lord and begged him to save my son. After a service my son’s grandmother and I approached Pastor Rodney and asked him to pray for my little boy. He prayed over my son and declared health and normalcy over him. At that very moment I was touched by the Lord and hit the ground for the very first time in my life. I felt calm and at peace like I never had before. A week later I woke up to take my son to a visit with the specialist to discuss details about his condition and get a referral for surgery. I touched his head once in faith that I would be able to feel a difference, and I did, IT WAS SOFT!!!! I thanked God in silence keeping my discovery to myself and attended the visit in high spirits. The Doctor checked him thoroughly and finally said there had been a misdiagnosis. My son was not suffering from that horrible condition (at least not anymore)and the doctor even reffered to him as a perfectly healthy little boy. I truly believe and KNOW in my heart that the Lord made my son healthy and saved him from medical intervention and a surgery at such a tender age. Thank God for everything he does for us and everything he has done for me. And thank Pastor Rodney for praying for him as well as other members of the church who called me and prayed for my son. Thank you Thank you Thank you.
