SID: That’s good that she said that, it’s good that you knew people got healed. What’s going on inside of you when you find out you were in the dying ward and 10 hours to live?
BRIAN: Well, at that point, when I lay in that hospital room, and I knew I’d come to the end of my rope. It was like I saw like a vision of almost like a football game. It was the fourth quarter. It was the two-minute warning. And I was the one who was down by two touchdowns. In other words, this cancer was invasive. This cancer was taking over my body. I knew at that moment, I had just hours, just hours to live.
I needed God to move supernaturally for me to live. And so I began to pray to the Lord and I said, “Lord, if you heal me, if you get me out of this situation, I’ll do whatever you want me to do. I’ll go wherever you want me to go, I’ll go. Speak to everyone you want me to speak to.” When I said those words, it was almost as if Jesus walked into my hospital room.
Now, I didn’t see Jesus with my physical eyes, but I certainly felt his presence. The Lord said to me, “Son, if you will do these steps, you will be healed. You’ll walk through the fire, but not be burned.” When I heard that, I was like, “Steps. What do you mean steps? There’s something that I have to do?” I said to Lord, I said, “Steps, what are the steps? What do these steps look like?”
As I asked the question, all of a sudden on the inside, I knew the step no one needed to tell me, but I knew that I had been holding some unforgiveness towards a person. Something that had happened many years ago before.
SID: God said, “If you would follow these steps, you would be healed. Today, are you convinced that if anyone follows these steps, they will be healed?
BRIAN: Absolutely.
SID: Well, when the Holy Spirit pointed out there was unforgiveness and a particular person, what’d you do about it?
BRIAN: In my mind, I tried to rationalize. I said, “Lord, that was a long time ago. I wouldn’t even know their phone number now.” In just like that, this phone number just dropped into my spirit. I thought to myself, “That almost sounds like the right number. I know that’s the right area code. I knew at that moment, I had to make things right.
I reached over to the phone, and I picked up the phone and I dialed that number. When the person answered, it was the person that I needed to talk to. I laid in bed just feeling God’s peace. Then hours later, a nurse would come into the room and she said, “Oh my gosh. Oh my gosh, your kidneys are working.” Well, see, my kidneys had been shut down for a number of days.
It was a confirmation to me that as I would do the steps that the Lord gave me, that he would manifest his healing power.
