ENTERING INTO THE FAITH REST

My name is Kathleen in 1994 I was diagnosed with Hotchkins Lymphoma. It was an incredible time in my life, before I was ever diagnosed a person in my church told me that I was to read a book on how to enter into a faith rest, so when the news of the cancer came I had absolutely no fear. I had just started to enter into the faith rest. I prayed about the situation and told all of our church family and friends to thank Jesus (in advance) for healing me. The incredible thing about it was I had no fear.

When I was healed I can't remember the day, but I do remember that I was sleeping about 18 hours a day. One day while praying with my prayer partner Lee I told her "Lee you have got to command the spirit of cancer and the spirit of death to loose me" and when she prayed the sleepy fog that I was in lifted and I knew that I had been healed. Since this time I haven't had this problem. The tiredness was gone, but I still had the big lump on the side of my neck, so I went to the doctors to have it removed. After surgery the doctors told me that they thought they had gotten all the cancer. They sent what they had removed to some pathology labs in two different states to be tested. It took about 6 weeks for the results. (They ran the tissue through 3 times in each pathology lab in each state, I guess they just couldn't believe there was no cancer.) The doctors had spent a whole year trying to prove that I had cancer, but could not find any, because Jesus had healed me.

HEB 4:1-3 "Therefore, since a promise remains of entering His rest, let us fear lest any of you seem to have come short of it. For indeed the gospel was preached to us as well as to them; but the word which they heard did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in those who heard it. For we who have believed do enter that rest..."
