Do angels exist?Are healing miracles real?Is there life after death?Can people get supernatural help from another dimension? Has the future been written in advance? SID Roth has spent twenty-five years researching the strange world of the super-natural. Join Sid on this edition of “It’s Supernatural.”
SID: Many years ago I knew a woman by the name of Kathryn Kuhlman, she had the most outstanding miracles happen, I mean still when I think about her, when I think about the presence of God, the miracles that would occur, the blind that would see, the deaf that would hear. But then I was having dinner last night with Joan Hunter and she said to me that there are many times they have meetings where a hundred percent of the people are healed. Kathryn Kuhlman used to say I perceive the day coming in which people that walk in the presence of God will go into hospitals and the whole hospitals will clear out. Well, Joan you said this sort of thing is going on at your meetings, there’s such a high percent of people getting healed, and the reason I believe this is going on is you have been really prepared by God.You see she is the daughter of Charles and Frances Hunter and I have to believe Joan Hunter that you have witnessed with your eyes more miracles, or as many miracles as any human that’s ever lived.
JOAN: I think so.
SID: but the thing that kind of intrigues me is you were in the back row, you were not an upfront type individual, that’s all changed, and then you had ten things happen to you, or I believe that nine of the ten things
JOAN: Nine of the ten, Unhuh,
SID: Would be enough to kill a person, any one of them would be enough but you had nine of the ten things, the doctors say you’re in big trouble, but how does someone that’s been in ministry with their parents for thirty years, seeing miracles from just a little child, how did you happen to marry a man that was a pastor that was a homosexual?
JOAN: Well that kind of came out you know later in life, many times people say they have been free of this and free of that and the root causes have not been taken care of, and so when stress came on then homosexuality came on. And after twenty-five years of marriage, we were in the ministry together, traveled the world together, and it was, it was, you know I would ask him different things and he would say, “Well no, that’s not going on,” and you can’t get a divorce on the gift of suspicion, so I just really prayed and I said, God what is done in darkness, let it be revealed in the light, and when I had proof positive that he was having you know affairs, and to this day he has an unrepentant heart, and so I pray for him, you know for God to open his eyes and so at that point after twenty-five years of you know, being emotionally starved, to say the least, then at that point God released me to get the divorce.
SID: But then I men in addition to that you didn’t have much money, you developed breast cancer, they gave you what, an average of two years to live?
JOAN: They said about two years, it was two days after the divorce, you know number one you’re co-dependant – you’re dealing with the separation, then two days later after the divorce you get diagnosed with breast cancer, and then in Texas you don’t have alimony, and so –
SID: Tell me, even with the good background you had, that had to be some of the darkest times of your life.
JOAN: It was, it was
SID: It had to be crushing.
JOAN: It was, it was a crushing, it was a brokenness, it as a doing away with anything and everything that I held dear to me, and then you know, you deal with that and then you get diagnosed with breast cancer, and then you go to the counselor, the counselors say there is absolutely no hope, you’ll never get over this, because in addition to the homosexuality and different things that went along with that, there is a lot of other things that you have to deal with. Number one, he was a pastor, and number two, he was your children’s pastor and their father, and dealing with that and a lot of other things that go on in that lifestyle.
SID: So tell me, all right, so you get this diagnosis, you don’t have time to pity yourself, what do you do about it?
JOAN: well you go before god and you petition the Lord and the first thought, you know if anybody’s ever been diagnosed with cancer the first thought is, well you know I want these kind of flowers, I want pink roses on the casket, a white casket, wearing pink
SID: You know too much, how could you have done that Joan?
JOAN: That’s exactly the first thought. I didn’t say I knew enough to get rid of the thought, but not for it to stay, okay. And I knew enough for it to get rid of it and hold those thoughts captive according to the word of God. And I realized that within a few months I would have been in the ground if I had not said, no, God has called me, if nothing else, my children need me. And you know they were teenagers at the time and it was like, you know I need to do what I can do for them. And I would force-feed myself because I was too sick, I was sickened, too sickened to eat, but I force-fed myself in order to, you know to maintain, to survive basically. And the counselors would say I would never get over it, because there was a whole lot more involved than homosexual activity, rather than just affairs. And that lifestyle and then the children blamed me for the divorce because I was the one that had filed, and so then they are mad at me for destroying the home. And then we moved out of this home into this little bitty home, that’s like one third the size of the original home and you know so forth and so on and then the CPA says, “You know you’re not going to make it financially, and the only way that you possibly could make it is if you quit tithing and for sure quit giving offerings. So I changed CPA’s.
SID: Good for you.
JOAN: Yeah, cause I knew I couldn’t make it if I quit tithing and giving offerings and I know that because of my giving that God took care of me financially, supernaturally.SID: What about the breast cancer?
JOAN: And a couple of months in going and doing this and so forth and when I went back all this, the darkness, the scarring, the, everything on the sonogram just wasn’t there.
SID: I don’t understand; where did it go?
JOAN: god just took it away.
SID: What did the doctor’s say?
JOAN: They actually asked me not to come back there, to have any more mammograms there because they couldn’t explain it.
SID: You’re saying even the scar from the biopsy?
JOAN: The scars from the biopsies, they couldn’t even find when I went back
SID: They thought you weren’t the same person I imagine.
JOAN: Unhuh. And they thought they had made a mistake and misdiagnosed me before. But I was on the examining table and I’m the one the sonogram actually slipped and I was watching, because I find medicine and things like that very fascinating, and I looked and I said, “What is that?” She goes, “Oh nothing.”I said, “Put it back on there, I want to see what that is.”And so it’s all there, you know the whole bit, and I knew exactly where it was and it was an accident that they found it, and so that was a very much, a very alone time in my life.
SID: I can imagine, but I can also imagine anyone watching this right now that have loved one, or themselves who have cancer, the same God that healed Joan, is, I believe, going to heal you. He just healed someone’s back right now in Jesus name.
JOAN: Amen.
