 | Pastor Jerry, dad, will be going to the hospital on Monday,please pray for him.
Update: Thursday May 11th
I just wanted to give a quick update and a shout of praise for how well Pastor Jerry is doing. To understand just how well he is doing, it's important to know that just as recently as Monday Jerry couldn't walk. His left leg was basically 'dead' and there wasn't any connection between the nerves in his leg and the muscles. Just lifting his left leg off the ground was impossible, and the pain was tremendous.
Well praise the Lord, that is all but gone now. For the first time in months, I watched dad get up and out of the hospital bed with no assistance and no pain. To see him up and around without his walker was so good to see that I can't begin to describe how happy we all were. And to think, it was only a couple of days ago, that the doctors once again told us not to expect much change at all for at least a few months. Well obviously the Lord has different plans.
Pastor Jerry will remain in the hospital until at least Saturday if not Sunday night, as he still has a few days remaining on the ivig.
At this point, the only thing left is to pray that he is healthy enough, and able to have the operation on his double hernia. Normally it can take months if not longer to even get on the list for the operation, but once again the Lord seems to be granting Pastor Jerry great favor with the doctors. Just a few hours ago, he had a consult with the head surgeon, and they are going to do some tests to see if dad can have the operation. They will also take a look at the 'lumps' on his arm and leg at the same time.
As I get more information I will post it in this thread for everyone. We are watching miracles happen right before our eyes, and it's your prayers that are making this possible.
Thank You
Shawn
As many of you are aware, Pastor Jerry, dad, has been sick for quite some time now. The list of things that went 'wrong' with him was huge, and Praise the Lord, everything that he originally went in for is either under control, or has been healed.
The biggest thing left that he is fighting is severe 'level 10' pain from the nerves in his left leg. Evidentally it has something to do with the diabetes he had, and there really isn't a cure. His left leg is pretty much useless now, as it cannot support
any of his weight, and is quite painfull. He can only get around with a 'walker' right now, and stairs are virtually impossible to use.
Monday morning, he will be going into the hospital for an 'experimental' ivig treatment that will take a minimum of 3 days. There are huge side effect risks involved with this treatment, but according to the neurologists, it's the last thing they have to try.
Short of an outright miracle, this is the last 'medical' option, and even if it goes as planned, it won't return him to normal.
I am asking everyone to join together in prayer for Pastor Jerry this upcoming week. I'd love it if we could cover him with a 24 hour prayer chain, but I don't have the time to personally organize it prior to his hospitalization. So please, those that can, pass
on the word and lets pray for a miracle. It's more than time for Pastor Jerry to be out of pain, walking again, and back on the road doing what he loves most, preaching and praying for you guys 'n gals.
Thank you
Shawn
A prayer added by Pastor Jerry
 I have prayed this prayer for others in the past I find I am praying it for myself today. I will be in the hospital next week monday - friday. Who will join me in praying we see this mountain moved
Father, I thank You for this wonderful opportunity to minister to my family today and to be open enough to let others walk with me on this journey to my healing.
Satan is so stupid; he never remembers the verses that say, ISA 59:19 So shall they fear the name of the LORD from the west, and his glory from the rising of the sun. When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the LORD shall lift up a standard against him.
He never remembers: HEB 4:16 Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.
That, as a child of God, we can go where satan cannot go.
We can go to the inner court of mercy.
There is no mercy for satan anymore
But my Lord is my refuge and strength.
PSA 86:5 For thou, Lord, [art] good, and ready to forgive; and plenteous in mercy unto all them that call upon thee. 86:6 Give ear, O LORD, unto my prayer; and attend to the voice of my supplications. 86:7 In the day of my trouble I will call upon thee: for thou wilt answer me.
Father, we have learned not to FEAR - which means to give respect or worship to the problem. Your Word encourages us to worship and respect the Problem-Solver.
PSA 23:4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou [art] with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. 23:5 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies:
PSA 46:1 .... God [is] our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. 46:2 Therefore we will not fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea; 46:3 [Though] the waters thereof roar [and] be troubled, [though] the mountains shake with the swelling thereof.
Father, I pray for my healing today. The doctors like to scare people with words, but God likes to do the opposite. The doctors say what I have has no cure. The Lord says I am already healed by the stripes of Jesus. I like what the Lord says.
So, Father, we come against satan and his evil report and We love standing on Your Word. We ask for this healing - not only for my body, but my soul and spirit also. Father, we rebuke the hand of satan here, and ask for Your mercy one more time. As a child, we thank You.
For my friends who had said, "Father don't take Jerry; take me instead". My darling, friends, I know your heart, for that is where many parents are when their child gets hurt.
Think on this - over two thousand years ago Jesus said, ABBA Father, don't let satan take them, I will take their sins and I will take their sickness to the cross. Daddy, let me die for them.
ISA 53:4 ¶ Surely he hath borne our griefs (He has taken OUR sickness'), and carried our sorrows: (to the cross).... 53:5 But he [was] wounded for our transgressions, [he was] bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace [was] upon him; and with his stripes we are healed. 53:6 All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the LORD hath laid on him (on Jesus) the iniquity of us all.
So you see my precious friends, Jesus has already prayed your prayer - but a little different way.
He wants to take your pain. He wants to take your sorrow. He want to take the sickness that satan tries to kill you with. He wants to do it for everyone who will humble themselves and pray and say, "Jesus, I will follow you this time."
These are the promises, open to everyone who has an open line to heaven. The only problem is that you have to make the call. Father I am dialing right now, thank you for answering my call to heaven for this healing in Jesus Name.
