military intelligence gathered after the chinookhelicopter was shot down in afghanistan led coalition forces to the insurgents location. a 12-year-old boy at the beach with his youthgroup disappears in the water for 20 minutes. after an intense search, rescuers find hisunresponsive body and fear the worst. but now dale ostrander is alert, responsive andtalking. his parents credit the power of prayer. here's heather sells. rescuers frantically searched for dale onjet skis, after he got caught in a rip tide off the coast of washington. twelve-year-oldnicole kissel was body boarding near by when she heard his cry for help.

i went to the very bottom of the ground. icould feel it, the sand, and i felt his pants; and i had pushed him up, then i went up. isaid, “we have to keep swimming.” the board was almost to land. i was swimming.i looked back. he’s right next to me, grabbed the board; he’s gone. the prayers started with dale’s youth groupon the beach. but when rescuers found him 20 minutes later, they thought it was toolate, and the doctors agreed. they never expected him to live. they expectedhim to be a vegetable. never walk . . . . never talk. . . . . never talk, never say a word.

that’s when family and friends of the ostranders’started this prayer blog dale spent the weekend in a coma in a portland hospital. then onsunday, he opened his eyes, and on monday he started talking. first thing he said, we were trying to gethim to cough. “come on dale . . . . to get the congestion. . . . . cough. you need to cough.” and hecoughed once. “okay, you need to it again, do more. “i don’t need to,” is whathe said first thing. and we’re looking at each other . . . . “everybody, he spoke! oh my goodness, afull sentence.” it was amazing.

dale's parents say prayer is still appreciatedas their son continues to recover. but they're also thanking god for a miracle. we really believe god can work miracles, notto say he will, or he should or we're deserving of it. but as long as he gets glory out ofit. heather sells, cbn news. amen. now let's go back over to terry to seewhat's ahead on today's 700 club. well up next, as the housing market crashedthis couple saw their real estate business boom. we'll show you their secret to success, afterthis.

after working as an engineer and running anecommerce business for several years, michael duever decided he wanted to try somethingfresh in order to bring in more income. real estate was booming, so he started his ownreal estate company. i always desired to have more, so i couldgive more; and i wasn’t happy just living paycheck to paycheck. and i started to learnmore about real estate, and it just got me excited, because i could help people. michael’s business flourished for the firstfew years, and his wife victoria left her job to join her husband’s company. it was just boom, boom, boom. the lord juststarted blessing us. one right after the other,

we just kept having closings. but when sub-prime mortgages took a nosedivein 2007, so did the couple’s real estate business. to paint a picture for you of what was goingon here in denver is there are several counties here and almost every week just in one countythere were like 100 to 200 foreclosures, every week. from august 2007 to february 2008, the dueversdidn’t have a single sale or closing. but after watching a cbn telethon that year, theduevers decided to take a step of faith. we have always been tithers and we have alwaystithed, and we have always believed that as

long as we keep tithing, the lord is goingto bless us. we got to a point where we went four months without any closings, and so weknew we had to do something else. and michael approached me and he said, “you know what?i would like to sow 1,000 dollars into cbn.” the duever’s closings almost doubled fromthe previous year. our sales just spiked. that was the end ofaugust, and by the end of october we had just had so many sales. in real estate, it takes30 days for anything to happen. it was the end of august actually when we gave it, andyou can see what happened, within a month and a half, two months. we had over 110,000 dollars come in, and that’slike 110 fold. it’s a good ground. it’s

good ground what cbn is doing. right now, within the next few months we haveeight closings coming up. it’s just phenomenal in this market when everybody is moaning andgroaning that nothing is selling. today, the duevers are cbn founders. no matter what is happening in the world,he honors his word. and it’s in his word to give, and you will receive. and that’swhat keeps happening. take the limits off god. trust the lord withthat. he is going to bless you for that offering. he is going to bring it back. and also keepyour eyes open for opportunities that are going to come your way, so god can bless you.

here is what the bible says. it’s from luke6 verse 38, “give, and it will be given to you. a good measure, pressed down, shakentogether and running over will poured into your lap. for with the measure you use, itwill be measured back to you. mike and victoria learned the secret, the secret of giving.and they tested god and they gave and came back a hundredfold. now, jesus promises 30,60, 100 fold. he promises those who give up in this life, in this life they will receive.in this life, they will receive. so let today be your day where you say, “okay, i’lltest god. i’ll believe god. i’ll believe what he says.” and start an adventure ingiving, and see what will happen to you, what happened to mike and victoria. we’ve seenso many stories so many times. god’s word

is true. he is faithful. even when we’refaithless, he remains faithful. terry. well, that’s the duevers’ side of whathappens when you give. now we want to show you what happens on the other end when you’refaithful. for centuries, nepal has been the world’s only official hindu nation. butthanks to a new tv program from cbn, children all over nepal are hearing the name of jesusfor the very first time. in a small village just outside nepal’scapital city of kathmandu, we met twelve-year-old shankar and his nine-year-old brother, salem.they live a simple life with their parents, who have both been unable to speak since birth. our parents make little sounds and use theirhands to talk to us.

the brothers like to watch television in theirspare time, but one day their set wouldn’t work. so we went to my uncle’s house to watchtv. when they got there, they watched cbn’schildren’s program, happy world. they made sure they saw it every week. i love jesus, because he gave his life andwas crucified for our sins. i learned that i should obey my parents. i also learned tonot fight with my friends or say bad things to them. when i saw how my brother had changed, i alsowanted to know more about jesus and go to

church. shankar and salem were excited to find outmore about jesus, so they sat down and wrote letters to cbn’s office in nepal. and sincethe show has been on the past year, we have received literally thousands of letters fromchildren and their parents, from hindus, buddhists and muslims and people who are just curiousto know more about jesus. now, shankar and salem are urging all their friends to watchcbn’s happy world. i tell my friends about happy world becausei want my friends to go to heaven with me. if they see the program, they can learn howto live with jesus forever. i have learned many things about god. thankyou happy world.

you know what’s so wonderful about thisprogram is the kids love it so much they don’t just bring their friends, but they tell theirparents about it. and what we saw and found out from the parentswas that it was the changed behavior of the children that gave them an interest in findingout what was happy world about? what were their children being taught in that? and youmake it possible for us to take that kind of a message into the middle of the only officialhindu nation in the world. and it’s making a huge difference. kids all over nepal haveheard about happy world. so thank you so much for making that possible. that happens whenyou become a 700 club member. how does that happen? well, you go to your phone, you pickit up. our number is toll free. you can see

i had all these different preconceived ideasabout what the good life was. i thought if i’m working in the entertainment industry,then that’s the good life. if i’ve got money, that’s the good life. if i’m famous,that’s the good life. katie pursued her dreams. i really loved radio, because i loved musicso much. and i thought, “well, radio would be really fun,” so i got into radio wheni was really young. like 17 years old, i was on the air. i moved from hawaii to the mainland,and i got a job working at cbs television, started doing camera work there and runningaudio. and i was having a lot of fun. acting and modeling opportunities followed,but drug use that began in her teens became

a full-fledged addiction that threatened everything. i was doing all these great things on onehand. i was still empty, though, and horrible, even though i had this great thing happeningto me. it was like i was so miserable and empty, and i didn’t even know why, thati was filling myself up with drugs and doing all these different things to try to makemyself feel satisfied. katie was chosen for a role with universalstudios, but just before her callback, she went on a drug binge. and i go into this meeting wasted. and thehigh guy at universal looks at me and says, “you look like a heroin addict. get outof my office right now.” and that was like

my last blow. i had gone through all thesedifferent opportunities, and i’d blown them all. blown them all. and so i fell face firstinto crime, and i became a full-time seller, because i was already selling drugs to everybody.and then i started cooking meth. she was arrested 12 times in one year formultiple felonies. finally, she was arrested on federal charges for conspiracy, manufacturingnarcotics and weapons violations. she was sentenced to 13 years in prison. i’m fighting with the cops. i attacked anofficer. i’m getting shook down every day by the cos that are in the facility, becausei am just starting up problems every day with all the officers and other inmates there.and i got thrown in the hole over and over

and over again while i’m there. finally, after a year of violent behaviorbehind bars, katie reached her breaking point. i had been taken to this lockdown cell thatwasn’t like a regular lockdown cell. it was booking, so you didn’t get a mattress.it’s freezing cold. it’s covered with urine and vomit and feces. and right then,i just got a revelation. it’s like, “this is god’s way of dealing with you. it tookthis level of a lockdown cell to get you to break. i’m the only one that can save youout of this.” and i just finally had it. i can remember slumping back against thatice cold cement wall and just slumping down and thinking, “i can’t take this anymore.”i had been fighting everybody out on the streets,

and now i’m fighting everybody inside. andi didn’t even realize that i was fighting god himself. and right then, the lord spoketo me. he said, “i want you to surrender to your captivity, because this is my plan,and it’s perfect.” katie prayed to become a christian. she readthe bible and shared what she learned with her fellow inmates. and the only book in the whole place was thebible. and i remember picking it up and reading through it. and i just thought, “this isthe coolest thing i’ve ever read in my life. this is so amazing.” and i would go fromthe front to the back to the front to the back over and over again. and as i did that,the holy spirit began to point out these scriptures

about these people called the ancient israeliteswho went to prison. and i was going, “wow.” as i read their story, i was like, “man,their story is my story.” it’s the story of every con that i’d ever known. and istarted getting excited about it, and i started teaching it to everyone that i could teachit to. her tough girl attitude and reputation beganto change. the cops are calling our unit the “god pod,”because everybody’s worshipping god. we’re baptizing people in the shower. we’re praying.there’s this fellowship going on, and this amazing breakout of the presence of god ishappening right in the middle of this captivity. after serving five years of her thirteen-yearsentence, katie won her appeal and was released

early. she’s free now, and her view of thegood life has changed dramatically. the good life is having your purpose and havingyour relationship with god. there have been so many amazing things that have happenedto me, because i’ve had my purpose. for one, when i got out of prison, i really quicklydiscovered that i didn’t want to do drugs anymore. i’m so filled up with this relationshipwith god, so excited abut this special thing that god has given me to do, this mission,the book, the ministry, that i had no desire to do drugs. katie wrote a book about the lessons she learnedfrom the israelites’ time in captivity and how god can use prison time to prepare peoplefor their purpose.

he has a bigger, better plan, an amazing planwhere he wants to use captivity to totally give us our dreams, to give us our future.he loves us so much that he’s got a plan for it, and it’s way bigger than we thoughtit was going to be. it’s awesome. it’s an interesting thought, isn’t it,that jesus puts us in forms of captivity, so that we can be set free, so that we canunderstand who he is. it’s a good place of growing and changing and being honed bythe hand of god. i love her story, because it’s really the story of all of us at somepoint. we may not go so far that we wind up in federal prison. but jesus said he cameto set the captive free. that’s you and me. it’s you and me. you know what’s interestingto me is that we have a choice, and we keep

choosing so often the wrong things. and whatare we looking for? we’re looking for purpose, for meaning, for some kind of fulfillment,for joy, sometimes for fun. and we don’t find it in any of our own choices, until wesurrender to him and then he gives us the fullness of who he is. and it’s everythingwe were looking for, everything we were looking for. maybe what’s even more significantin that truth is to realize that the god of the universe, the one who created us to livewith purpose, with meaning in our lives, waits. he waits. he waits for you. he waits for me.he waits for each of us to come to the end of ourselves, of our own plans, of our ownstriving, of our own need, until we come to the place of saying, “god, not only can’ti do this without you, i don’t want to do

this without you.” maybe you’re watchingher story today, and you’re saying, “wow, that’s what i need.” if it is, here isthe great news. he’s been waiting for you, too. it’s never too late. you can’t gotoo far away to be drawn back in by the arm of god. you can’t be too dead for a resurrection.you can’t have sinned too greatly to be forgiven. there is nothing, the bible says,that can separate us from the love of god. so what do you do? if your life is empty today,if you are a sinner and you know full well that you need forgiveness and the love ofa savior, it’s here for you now. he. it’s not an it. he is here for you right now. thisisn’t about religion. it’s not about rules and regulations. it’s about a relationshipwith the one who created you to love him and

to walk with him. will you surrender likekatie did? what does that mean? it means you lay down your stuff, your will, your way,and you grab hold of him. just grab hold of him today. stop what you’re doing and praywith me. let’s go to him together. “lord, i’m listening to katie’s story, and iknow that i need what she’s got. i want what she’s got. and so i am asking you todayto accept my plea for forgiveness. please, jesus, be the savior of my soul. forgive mysins. i’ve known in my head that you died to save the world. i’m asking you todayto save me. i am a sinner in need of a savior, and i’m asking you specifically. you knowthe things in my life that have entrapped me. you know the things i’ve done that havehurt others. you know the choices, the deliberate

choices i have made to do the wrong thing.will you forgive me? i am so sorry. i want to make that great exchange today. i wantto exchange my way for your way. so i’m giving you my whole life, everything i’vegot. come into the center of my being. be the lord of my life, as well as the saviorof my soul. will you open my eyes to the things you want me to see, my ears to the thingsyou want me to hear? give me a heart willing to obey you, willing to make a change, toturn the other way and to do things your way rather than my own. fill me now with yourholy spirit. i need you. i need the power you offer to become a different person. ireceive it all today, and i give everything i have to you. and i ask all of this in jesus’powerful name. amen. if you’ve prayed that

prayer, then you have begun the relationshipthat will change your life. how do you go forward from this point? well, we’ve put a packet together for youthat i think is really going to be helpful to you. it’s called “a new day.” look,it’s filled with information from god’s word. what do you do now that you’ve prayedthis prayer? what does god have to say about you as his child? this is all free for you. we want to sendit to you right away. if you’ll call our number, it’s 1-800-759-0700. just say, “iprayed that prayer, and i’d like the ‘new day’ packet.” we’ll get it out to youright away. you can also log on to cbn.com

invite friends and invite relatives over andjust have a big feast, i think that would be good. i think it would be awesome. so you have somethingspecial for us. today, we are going to persia. ooh. okay. i found this recipe, first tasted this methodof preparing lamb in india, in hyderabad. and i got really curious about how they didit. and one of the secrets was to marinate the meat in pomegranate juice, which was justincredible. and apparently, this tradition

goes back thousands of years to persia. andthat’s where it first started. so we’re making lamb. we’re making lamb. i’ve never had lamb before. we’re going to make rice pilaf with raisinsand currants . . . . love that. . . . . which is going to be just incredible.and then we’ve got a leek with cream, roasted asparagus, which is really good. and thenfor dessert, we’re going to have pears baked with cheese and honey and figs baked withcheese and honey. and that’s going to be

good. well, i just want you to know i’m goingto be your taste tester. you’re my sous chef. i’m your sous chef. okay. tell me what todo. all right. this is a leg of lamb. we callit butterflied. the bone has been taken out. the smaller the leg of lamb, the more likelyit is you’ve got a lamb. the bigger it is, the more likely it is you’ve got a sheep.so when you’re shopping, this is one area where smaller is better. it’s going to bemore tender. it’s gong to be tastier. here are the spices you need. this is cumin. we’regoing to put all this into a spice grinder,

which is just a coffee grinder that’s keptjust for spices. oh, that’s good to know. coriander. and you can buy any of these at your local. . . . these are all pre-ground, but you can buythem whole. and we’ve got some pepper, just plain black pepper. a little bit of pepper. and this is cardamom. and these are the pods.this is a wonderful spice that . . . . is it the same thing or different things?

it’s the same thing. this is what’s insidethese. you can cook with these and you can cook curries with these, and they explodewith flavor. and so when you use the pod, use them sparingly. my repertoire includes salt and pepper andgarlic pepper. well, the joke around here is that when youcome to cooking, you’re making . . . . cereal. . . . . cereal. i can cook. you pour it out from the box. you pour milkon top of it.

it’s a form of cooking. you grind it all together. and what the spicegrinder does is give you a nice mix of everything, and it breaks down those cardamom seeds, sothey’re usable. now, smell that? oh, that smells delicious! that smells reallygood. you know, like when you go to the spas and they have all those wonderful “hoo-rah”smells? that kind of smells like a “hoo-rah” smell. so you’re getting aromatherapy. i love it. all right, you sprinkle it on top. then youuse your hands. i’m not going to use it,

because i don’t want to get raw meat onmy hands with no sink around. and you press it in. it’s called a rub, because you literallyare going to massage this into the meat, and you want to fill up every crevice there is.then you take the meat—you do it on both sides. then you take the meat and you putit into a container like this, one that you can easily cover. and you take the pomegranatejuice. you really want to have this just submerged, and so you press it down and you submergeeverything in there. you cover it in plastic. you put it in the refrigerator overnight.and this is what happens after it’s been in the fridge overnight. i like to wrap it,where this fat—it’s called the fat cap—is on the outside. and as the fat melts as itroasts, it goes right into the meat and keeps

it really moist and juicy and wonderful. ooh, that sounds like a fat cap. i’ve gotsome of those fat caps on my thighs. fat capping. all right. all right. you take kitchen twine. you soakit in water. you cut it, and there is a special loop where you tie one end and you roll thiswhole piece of meat up into a log. and then you tie it to keep it in place. that keepsit rare to medium rare in the middle and gives you a nice crust on the outside. we’ll showit to you in a minute. ooh, yummy. the key, and the reason this recipe worksso well, sometimes lamb can have a little

gamey flavor to it, and it takes all of thataway. the pomegranate juice takes all of that away and just leaves you this wonderful thing. now, can you use that, the remaining juiceright there as a sauce? or do you throw that away? you should not use this as a sauce. okay, no. why? i’m curious. you should throw this away. you put that inthe oven, 375. you need a meat thermometer to really help you with this. take it to 135.then the residual heat will take it all the way to 140 after you take it out. and we’vealready done this one.

ooh. yummy. and that is what comes out. but you can seeit gets this nice crust. this is the fat cap. and so all of that crust is really nice andyou put the fat cap on top like i did there, and it just roasts up beautifully. beforeyou serve it, you take the string off and then you can cut it. and you want it to bethat medium rare look in the middle. that is tender and good, and you’re going toget a taste of it in just a second. i was just about to say, gordon, when do iget a taste? do not tempt thou. okay, what’s next? all right. you ready to cook?

let’s rock it, brother. it’s time. and not for nothing, but i want to prove thatreally i can cook more than cereal. all right. can you sweat the onions? i don’t know what sweating means. i cancook. i can put them in the pan and cook them. but seriously, what does sweating mean? all right. when you sweat, what happens? when i sweat? yes. i get funky. i don’t know.

water comes out of you. okay. good idea. maybe that wasn’t the answeryou were looking for. all right. you take the onions, dump themall in. so, seriously, what does sweating mean? doesit just mean cook? you want to get the water out of them. you don’t want them to turn brown. you justwant to sweat them. got you. so does that mean that you just—areyou waiting for them to get translucent so that you can see through them? right.

look at me knowing what i’m talking about,gordon. that’s what it means. who knew? when you sweat an onion, you make them translucent. good. and it cooks out all that sort of sharpnessto the onion. does it matter what kind? do you want likea sweeter onion or vidalia? it really doesn’t matter. just any old yellowonion will do. if you want the flavor of the red, but the red will end up coloring therice in a way you don’t want.

got you. what’s next? okay, that’s pretty good. now you put insome chicken broth. now is the kind of chicken broth that youget from the can? you can. when i cook, i tend to use my own.i like to roast chicken. that’s the best stock you can . . . . i’m kind of laughing, gordon, because you’relike, “no, i make my own chicken broth.” but for like normal women like me . . . . you can buy it. . . . . you can buy it in a can.

just get the low sodium. all right, now, we’remaking persian rice. so this has got cinnamon. interesting. turmeric, which is really healthy for you.it gives it a nice yellow color. is it salty? no, it’s not salty at all. raisins, which, when you cook in water, plumpup. currants, which are really wonderful. they give it a nice flavor. and then you addsalt. all of this broth . . . . this looks really good. . . . will now be absorbed into the rice.i like basmati rice. and you get that in most

supermarkets now. it’s usually grown in. . . . why? why do you like it? it’s got a real nutty flavor. and it doesn’tbunch up. it’s got a low starch content and a real nutty flavor. and it’s absolutelyperfect for this dish. i wish you could smell this. this smells sodivine, and the spices, it just kicks it up. you’re kind of impressing me. i’m impressing you. not a lot, just a little bit. but do you see how easy this is?

it’s really easy. i’m kind of shocked. you just stir it in together. it’s very easy. you marinate your meat. you tie it up. youput it in, and while you’re doing that, you do this. and then . . . . you just cover it. . . . . you cover it. you’ve got to coverrice. all that liquid in that pot will be absorbed by the rice, and what will come outis that. and that’s been dressed with some toasted almond slices. and i think that’scoriander.

can i taste now? you can taste now. thank you. you ready? at least i’ve got a . . . . we’ve got to do one more of all the differentthings that we’ve got. we’ve got the pears with goat cheese and honey and pistachio nuts.the figs with mascarpone. all of that was roasted in the oven. the leg of lamb, roastedasparagus, roasted leeks with cream. okay, what are leeks? as god is my witness,i don’t even know what they are.

well, it’s what the israelites wanted togo back to egypt for. the leeks. the leeks and the garlic and the onions. sothey taste really good. they look like big onions. are they big onions? well, they are. they taste a little bit likeonion, but it’s a little different. all right. attack. i will attack. let us know.

this just looks divine. so this is the lamb.all right, so we’ll try the lamb first. it’s very different. it’s very light.but it tastes delicious. and you know what i taste? i taste a little bit of the . . . . cardamom. yes. this is really yummy. the cardamom really comes through. and inthe center part it’s going to taste more like . . . . oh, it’s really good. you tasted the outer crust, which has moreof the rub on it.

wow, that tastes really good. the inner part has more of the pomegranatejuice. all right, let me taste the inner. you wantto taste some, too? gordon, go grab a fork. come on, so i’m not the only one eatingon tv. well, i want to see how you like the rice. ooh! let me tell you why that’s good, becauseit’s like one of those meals that you get different flavors with each bite. right. with each bite, as you from the outsidewith the rub to the inside where it’s just pomegranate juice . . . .

that’s divine. and the pomegranate juice also tenderizesthe meat. it’s a wonderful way to cook lamb. that’s divine. that’s divine. and then when you add it with that kind ofrice, you really get a flavor combo. brother. and then the dessert. we didn’t use thecheese for you, because you don’t like cheese. it doesn’t agree with you. i was about to say, i like cheese. it justdoesn’t like me. you like it. roasted pears are just a beautifulthing, and you’ve got the fig, and you’ve

got the pear. oh, my goodness, can you see this. look atthat. you’ve got raisins. i don’t even know what’s in there. it just looks beautiful.what is in there? pistachio nuts, raisins, currants. with goatcheese and honey, it takes it to a whole other level. my goodness, gordon. you’ve got to tastethis. what are these? figs. figs. do people really eat figs? yes. they’re really good.

i’ve never seen a fig. how do you eat afig? roasted figs are really good. how do you eat a fig? just cut into it. i’ve never eaten a fig. i’ve eaten a fignewton. does that count? yes. it will taste a whole lot better thana fig newton. i am so digging this meal. and i have to behonest with you, when you first started talking about lamb and . . . . persia.

i didn’t find out any of the details untili got home the next morning. he was coming home from the restaurant, and the man ranthe stop sign and hit him in the driver’s door and ejected him out the passenger window.ronnie had his seatbelt on, but it broke it. and when it threw him out the window, thecar actually turned over a couple of times. but thank god it didn’t hit him. it wouldhave crushed him. the young man, unfortunately, that hit him was killed instantly. ronnie was seriously injured from the accident. he was in intensive care. his neck was brokenin two places, and his left leg was shattered. trauma surgeon dr. john gary maxwell workedon ronnie’s case.

he had a ruptured colon that wasn’t apparentinitially. and we were very busy taking care of his head injury and his broken bones, andthen it became apparent that there was something very catastrophic going on in the abdomen.so he required another operation to take care of that. after the surgery, ronnie slipped into a coma,and the doctors gave clarice terrible news. “it doesn’t look like he’s going tomake it. he probably has about three hours.” and at that time, i don’t know about you,but i’ve never had anything like that to happen to me. i didn’t know what to say,what to do. what clarice felt she could do was pray. sheenlisted as many friends and folks from church

as she could to pray for ronnie. i knew that i knew that god was going to healronnie and make him whole again. so i just went back to our family in the waiting room,and friends, and i said, “guys, we are not going to be wringing our hands. and we arenot going to be saying, ‘poor ronnie.’ we are going to believe god together.” ronnie was already facing an uphill battlewhen complications set in. ronnie’s trauma score was such that it wasso high that the predictors for his recovery were very low. if you looked simply at thescientific predictors, he had a very low chance of survival. and then with the ruptured colon,he had sepsis. he had bloodstream infections.

he required a great deal of antibiotics. clarice filled her husband’s room with prayer,hymns and healing scriptures. she made sure everyone prayed for specific challenges ronniewas facing. he would have a major thing going on everyhour. some part of his body was shutting down. a fever was going up. they’d have to packhim in ice to get his fever down. his kidneys would try to shut down, infection in his system.it was one thing right after, another crisis. when you’re told nothing can help him, ijust needed to know what it was going to take to get him through the night. and then wewent from specifics every day, every hour, what do we need to get through this. so weasked for exactly what we needed. and that

is what we got. one by one each medical crisis was averted.the sepsis infection subsided. intense fevers came back down to normal levels. his kidneysthat were failing began to function again. clarice says the turning point came when hewoke from his three-week coma. when i saw his eyes, i knew he was going tobe okay. his clear blue eyes, i just wanted to see them. and when he opened them, i knewhe was going to be okay. fifty-two days after his accident, ronnieleft the hospital. today he is healthy and doing well, and his intestines are functioningnormally. ronnie believes the power of prayer saved his life.

and i know beyond a shadow of a doubt thatthat’s the reason that i’m here. her prayers and the people that agreed with her and otherpeople praying for me, never let anybody tell you it doesn’t mean anything to pray forsomebody, because i would not be here. that’s the only reason i’m living is because godanswered people’s prayers. against all odds, ronnie’s life is backto normal. but you know, you always fight for somethingthat you love, that you believe in. and i love him, and i believe in him. i know thati know that everybody there knew. he was not supposed to come out. but he did. he doesn’teven look like anything ever happened to him. when god does something, he totally restores,doesn’t he? he really does. he does a great

job, a lot better job than me. he does. and the really amazing thing is it’snot just for this person or that person. it’s for everybody, whosoever calls upon the nameof the lord. that’s what god’s word says. this is estella. she called on the lord. shelives in san antonio, texas. she developed curvature of the spine and a protruding disc.it caused physical distress to her right knee. she did take medication, but she still livedwith that pain for 30 years. wow! thirty years. one day, estella was watchingthe 700 club. gordon, the lord gave you a word of knowledge, and you said, “god ishealing a spine and removing the pain that

it was bringing to the right hip.” estellaclaimed the word. the pain suddenly disappeared. she says she has not had any trouble sincethen. that’s a miracle. thirty years. that is a miracle! here’s another one. this is carolyn of beaumont,texas. she had a back injury at her job. she’d taken many different prescriptions for thecondition. nothing helped. one day, she was watching the 700 club. terry, you said, “thereis a pain which extends down your hip and into your legs. move your hips around, andyou’ll find it’s completely free. it’s gone. you don’t feel the pain anymore.”well, carolyn got out of bed and began moving her body in different positions. she felta tingling sensation go throughout her body

as terry prayed. and she hasn’t had anytrouble since. that’s great. that’s god. that can happen to you. you can have a lifewhere you don’t have any trouble since, where you don’t have that nagging pain.you don’t have to worry about how you get up out of bed. you don’t have to worry aboutyou bend over and pick up things. god loves his children. he wants his children to befree of disease, of pain. which one of us—we’re parents. which one of us, if our child wasin need and had need because of some illness, what would we do? we would go to all kindsof lengths. we’d take them to every single doctor we could. we’d buy any medication.we’d pay for anything, anything, so our child could be healthy. that’s what goddid. that’s what god did. he sent his only

begotten son, so that we wouldn’t have tosuffer the consequences anymore, that we could be free of pain, of infirmity, of disease.he paid the price. he did it all, and he did it all out of love, because he loves you.he loves you so much he was willing to die for you. and the bible says that he himselfhas borne away our infirmity. he has taken away our pain. he forgives all your iniquities.he heals all your diseases. what he has done for others, he will do for you. is your conditionpart of all? are you part of whosoever? don’t for a minute think that god has passed youby. i don’t care if you’ve asked for it before. jesus says, “ask and keep on asking.”so what i want you to do, in an act of faith, lay your hand on that area of the body thatneeds healing. the bible says, the bible says,

“these signs shall follow them that believe.they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.” the bible also says if twoor more agree touching anything, it shall be done. so terry and i are going to agree.you agree and touch, and we’ll come into agreement with you and let god do all therest for you. pray with us. “lord jesus, we just lift the needs of the audience toyou. and as people are laying hands on that area of the body that needs healing, we justcome into agreement with them. and we agree with them, and we declare out loud over this,be healed and be made whole.” there is a man, your name is tom. you’re laying handson your left hamstring. you’ve had an old injury from track. and god is healing that.he’s literally knitting it back together

again, and you’re just feeling that it justgot tight, and you felt pain, and then it just released, in jesus’ name. there’ssomeone else, you’ve had an injury from work, and your name is dave. and you’vegot a bulging disc in the lumbar area of your spine. and god is healing that. he’s takingthat away right now. and you’re just feeling just this liquid oil going down your spineright now, in jesus’ name. be healed. straighten. what you couldn’t do before, do it now.just straighten and realize you just got healed. you just got restored in jesus’ name. there are numbers of you, you actually haveyour hands on your eyes. you’re suffering with macular degeneration. god is healingthat condition for you right now. and little

by little, those holes that are missing sightare just going to get smaller and smaller until your sight is returned. what doctorshave said is impossible god is going to do for you. someone else, you have a problemwith a fibrous tumor or tumors, and therefore removing them is very difficult. god is shrinkingall of that. you’re not going to need to have them removed. they’re just going tosimply go away, in jesus’ name. there is a woman named sylvia. and you hadyour hand over your right eye. and when terry started talking, you went, “yay, that’sfor me!” and then when she said macular degeneration, you went, “oh, no, it’snot for me.” that whole sinus condition is being relieved right now, and those migrainesassociated with it are just gone now, in jesus’

name. god has heard your cry, and he is sayingyes to you right now. there are others, you’ve got cysts, ovarian cysts, and it’s extraordinarilypainful. and you’re saying, “please say that. please say my condition.” and somebody with a rotator cuff injury inyour left shoulder. god is healing and knitting that all back together for you again. praise you, my god. there’s someone, you’velost the two front teeth. and you’re worried about implants, and there is some kind ofproblem with them. and god is healing that, and he’s taking away all the infection inthe bone, in jesus’ name. be healed from that now. just be healed and restored.

someone else with a skin condition, whereyour skin just gets raw. god is touching that and healing it, almost like an oil going overyour skin. it’s just going to disappear, in jesus’ name. lord, we thank you, for you are the healer.we thank you for what you have done today. if you’ve been touched by god, we want toshare in your good report, so call us: 1-800-759-0700. we leave you with these words from psalms. . . . . . . . “in the morning i will sing of yourlove; for you are my fortress, my refuge in times of trouble.” here at cbn, we see amazing things happenwhen we stand together.
