Oppression lifted

A few weeks ago I came to the Healing Rooms for prayer as I’d been struggling with feelings of opposition and oppression throughout my year long study of Revelation. 

Following my visit I experienced a discernible ‘lightness of being’ which I hadn’t felt all year and the feeling of oppression lifted completed.

I praise the Lord for His mercy and grace to me in this time of need.  

I’d also like to thank the team very much for their prayer, and the ‘word from the Lord’ shared with me at that time.  It was (and still remains) a very great encouragement.

Tumour gone.

Earlier in the year I had a CT scan of my brain.  This showed a benign tumour.  I was referred to a specialist who ordered an MRI.  Prior to having this test, the team at CHR prayed for me for healing.  The MRI showed NO EVIDENCE of a tumour and I was given the all clear!!

Great place to chill with God...

I’ve been going to the Healing Rooms for quite some time. Every time I experience a wonderful touch from God and always encouragement to soldier on in life. I suffer from mental illness and I’m taking medication for it. I’ve cut down the dosage.  Although I’m still on meds I believe I’m getting more stable and getting better. Healing Rooms is a great place to chill out with God whose love for me never ends and never fails.

Calming and relaxing atmosphere

I experienced a sense of peace with a calming and relaxing atmosphere.  

The staff are warm, caring and inviting. A great environment to initiate prayer and healing.

I encourage all to visit the healing rooms for a spiritual encounter with the God who heals by the power of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Feedback on my visit to the Healing Rooms

The team were very welcoming.  They had 2 scriptures for me that were spot on and God showed them an issue with forgiveness that still needs to be dealt with. 

I felt God’s presence very strongly and have some keys to help me move forward.  Praise God!

Relationship healing

I came for prayer with 3 things, the least out of the 3 to my surprise was answered. 

I’ve had a friendship with a wonderful woman who was always very reserved in her friendship and didn’t really open up.  I’ve known her for 10 years and after prayer on the Saturday, on the Sunday she, for the first time, opened her heart to me in such a deep and amazing way that has brought restoration and healing to a once challenging relationship to an open and whole beautiful friendship.  It’s the beginning of a beautiful open relationship.  Thank you Jesus!

Back healed

Three weeks ago on a Sunday I bent down to pick up something small from the floor at home. As I bent down I felt something shift in my lower back. There was no pain so I did not bother about it. Next day I started feeling pain and by evening my movements became restricted because of the internal pain. By Tuesday morning I had difficulty walking. I went to Healing Rooms as a team member because I have committed to do so and I was not totally immobile. On Wednesday morning, I could not get out of bed due to the lower back pain.

My wife and I decided to see a chiropractor. After the x-ray and physical tests, the chiropractor said I had an inflamed spinal cord in the lower back because it was being squeezed by the lower vertebrae. He thought it was the result of the hours of sitting at the computer and believed it would take at least six weeks to heal.

That Saturday, I went to Healing Rooms and all the team members laid hands on me and prayed for my healing. During the prayer I felt heat in my back from my neck down and sensed the pain decrease. I was able to move more freely.

The following Tuesday team members prayed for me again and all pain went. I went to see the chiropractor that Friday and told him the pain was gone. I could tell by his face that he did not believe a word I had said. He put me through physical tests and then exclaimed, “This is magic!” I could tell that he still did not except what had happened to me. He said the exercises he had told me to do and the limited walks around the neighbourhood must have helped a lot. I quit going to the chiropractor. The Lord is not only financially cheaper with his ‘treatment’ but he has also filled me with his joy.

I praise God for the mighty works He does through Capital Healing Rooms and the faithful team of believers He works through.

Knees healed

I came to the Healing Rooms today for a food hamper.  I’ve been told I have no cartilage in my knees and they are in so much pain.  I was asked if I wanted to receive healing prayer for this condition.

After prayer I could straighten my left knee for the first time in years.  All pain left from both knees!

Shooting pain in hip healed

I came into the Healing Rooms for a food hamper a couple of months ago.  I limped in with a very painful hip and shooting sciatic nerve pain down my left leg.  I have had this condition for a long time.  I asked if the people there could heal me.  Their reply was “we can’t, but Jesus can”. 

I received healing prayer in the reception area by a couple of ladies.  Immediately all pain left my hip area and I was able to walk freely.  I was amazed (and very happy) and my friend with me was stunned!!

Arm and shoulder healed.

I came to the Healing Rooms in December 2015 for a food hamper.  I happened to mention that I had a very sore shoulder – bursitis – and I couldn’t move my arm very much as I was in too much pain.  As I’m a full-time carer for my Mum, it was very difficult to do things for her.

Someone at Reception Desk asked if I would like healing prayer and she laid hands (gently) on my shoulder and immediately I felt release and could lift my arm above my head.  I felt so peaceful.  I came back today (7 months later) and was able to show her that it was still good and I have had no pain.

Liver and Haemoglobin levels

Thank you for your prayer for our son Daniel over the last weeks.

We just want to give testimony to God’s wonderful gift of healing that we are seeing happening for Dan!  His recent haemoglobin reading was 130 (a HUGE IMPROVEMENT) which is at the bottom of the normal range for a healthy young male and his liver function test was normal!!  For both these healings we give thanks and praise to our ever loving Father God.

Please continue to pray for total healing of his pancreas and spleen.

Thank you

Can you please pass on a big thank you to the people who were there tonight (Monday), who prayed for me……as I got so much healing tonight - as I always do.
I haven't been able to get there for 6 months, and going out at night can be a struggle for me, as I am a single Mum, and have to arrange a babysitter etc,
and have recently also started a part-time job, but I felt like I just HAD to get there tonight.   I received a lot of great words and ministry, and although we went a bit late, they allowed me time for things to happen as was needed.
I know everyone there are volunteers, and they give up their own time to be there, and just want to say that I really appreciate those who were there tonight (sorry I can’t remember any names), and the words and Bible verses they had for me, which are always so relevant and specific to my situation.

Employment breakthrough

We came (….to Healing Rooms…) without a steady job, after nearly a year of applications, and not enough money to pay the rent. Three weeks later, with help from family (a difficult process), we have avoided eviction and I am about to start a new job in my chosen field. There has been a definite shift and new spiritual impulse. Thank you! 

Financial breakthrough

Prayed with Healing Rooms for a situation needing financial change – from desperate to green pastures!

God answered!!  And now I am inundated with overtime shift work.  Now am believing God for no toil, no striving but THRIVING!!!  PRAYER WORKS!!

Serena's healing

I brought my 12 year old daughter Serena to the Healing Rooms for prayer a few times and also the Church I attend was intentionally in praying for her.   Serena had 2 parts of her hip that needed healing - her broken hip and the dead bone head to be alive again.  Serena's broken hip is now fully healed and the bone head is mostly all alive (70%) again and there was evidence of blood flowing to that which was medically 100% dead and now made alive by the healing power of God!!  At Easter this year, the Thursday before Good Friday,  when I was laying hands on and praying for Serena, I felt God saying that "this Easter just like Jesus was dead and then resurrected, Serena's bone head which was dead will also be resurrected to life again"  On the Friday morning in Church the Pastor  (in obedience to God's leading) felt to call Serena up to the front to get the elders of our church to come up and lay hands on her hip and pray for her hip.  The presence of the Holy Spirit was so strong that I really believe that day was a very significant day.  Alleluia!x1000000000000000000000000 

Thanks to our Lord almighty for this fantastic healing and the best thing is this timing is much earlier than what the Ortho surgeon was expecting. He was even saying just before looking at Serena's X-Ray (taken an hour before we saw him) that normally this treatment would take 12 maybe even 18 months (i think just to prepare Serena for any not so positive news?) Serena's only gone 6 months into this treatment and it seems to me like she's already (by God's miraculous healing power) already 70% there. The other 30% seems still needs lots of prayer and God's continuing miracle healing touch. What the doc was saying is that the dead bone may be 'eaten' away by our body's natural cells when it is dead.  

In summary, Doc's planning for Serena to start walking slowly by November and then weaning her off the wheelchair by putting her on crutches and more physio etc and she should be totally walking by herself without any aid by end of this year. Prayers answered!!!  Overall things are looking SO good and outlook is FANTASTIC!!! (Of course with God why wouldn’t it be good!!)

 All glory and Honour to Abba Father our Lord and Saviour!! THANK YOU Capital Healing Rooms for your faithful prayers and support to us at our time of need. We appreciate it very much!

Part 2 UPDATE ON SERENA – 28/8/08

GREAT NEWS!!! Praise the Lord! Serena's hip is almost totally healed! A big improvement from 2 months ago and NO OP required at this stage. Doc is happy with her progress and didn't say anything about the bone marrow transplant. When I asked him about it he said he’ll wait for another 2 months to see if it's  needed, at this stage he doesn't think it's needed. He wants to see Serena and Xray again on 3 Nov.

AND........he's expecting Serena will be able to walk out off the hospital (with crutches) after the next appt!!!! Alleluia! He still wants her to still be in the wheelchair till end of year to keep her safer at school. Crutches only with strict supervision and safer environment. Still need to keep her from falling over or being knocked over - no extreme weight bearing still.

He still wants Serena to continue going up to Sydney for the infusion for another 7 months to continue to protect the new bones structure and still not much active activity allowed for next few months. We'll be increasing her hydro/pool physio in these next few months to prepare and build up her leg muscle and re-train her legs to walk again after a year of being in wheelchair.

THANKS again for all your prayer support!!!                                   Doreen 28/8/08

Part 3 UPDATE ON SERENA – 30TH JANUARY 2009

We are so thankful to God for His amazing healing and His perfect timing. Thank you and the Healing Rooms for your faithful fervent prayer cover during Serena's healing journey. We have felt it all the time and God's strength kept us afloat. Her hip is almost completely healed and we give thanks to God for the bit to go but she's medically strong enough to put weight on it. She's limited to just gentle walking at this stage. 

You may recall there was that bit about 30% that didn't have any bone growth and how the surgeon did the operation to try and speed things up with bone marrow transfer but couldn't get to the bone head when he open her hip up.  He only removed the pin and decided not to proceed with the marrow transfer as it was too risky but to just leave it and hope for it to grow naturally. We felt at peace with that decision and I know in my heart that God is going to complete the healing in His time. I said to the surgeon at the hospital that we will continue to pray for a miracle and indeed God's done a miracle and almost 90% has now grown! We will continue to claim a 100% complete healing for Serena.

Serena is now walking and rejoicing and praising God! (yet to leap, but will soon).

Final testimony - Praise God.

We went up to Sydney Children's hospital for Serena’s 2nd year anniversary check-up mid Oct 09. Many tests and x-rays were taken - we were there the whole day. All showing very positive results and both specialists (orthopaedic and endocrine) were very happy with the results. All the levels were good and the bonehead (resurrected bone head) was very solid and ROUND. That was what they were hoping to see and they were very pleased with her healing. The Orthopaedic Specialist said to Serena that after 2 years of her bonehead being round, there should be no medical reason why it won't stay that way. That was the best news we were waiting for! Praise the Lord! The reason why I was so excited was that the Drs were concerned that the bonehead may collapse when she bears weight on it and started to walk and told us at that time of that risk. God is bigger than any risk!!! He's overcome them already!

The Dr. wants Serena to go back for a final MRI to double check the bonehead in January 2010. After that, she'll just go back and see them annually.

It's been a difficult but great journey for us all with God paving the way all along and to have the amazing prayer support from all our friends especially those at the Capital Healing Rooms.

So Serena is now not only walking and praising God but is able to walk AND LEAP and praise God! She's totally medically free to do anything she wants!!

I just want to express my gratitude to the lovely ladies who prayed for me several weeks ago.  I was experiencing some extreme and worrisome hair loss at the time, and it had been occurring for several months prior.  During prayer, the team discerned that the problem was linked to a generational curse in my family line.  They were spot on because baldness has effected the women on one side of my family for generations, some to the point of having no hair left at all.  This problem is so devastating to the feminine condition of women in particular, and has caused so much damage to the self-esteem of women in my family.

I felt after prayer something had shifted in the spirit and I went home expecting to see results.  While my hair continued to fall out as usual, there was slightly less hair being lost and a week later I noticed a few new feathery hairs growing.  I continued to claim God’s healing.  In the weeks to follow I went to see a specialist who examined my condition and though my existing hair had become quite sparse in comparison, they found no sign of hereditary hair loss.  I believe the generational curse was broken!  I can expect all of my lost hair to grow back over the next several months.

Praise God that he cares for every hair on our head!  And thanks again for the kind hearts of those who pray at the Healing Rooms.

I had been coming to the Healing Rooms for some time for prayer for a physical disability from a serious illness I had when I was two years old. At the time of the illness I spent eleven months in hospital and, in the wisdom of the 1950s, my parents were only allowed to see me for a couple of hours once a week.  For the two year old it meant rejection, and my mother bore the brunt of the damaged relationship that resulted.  By age twelve I had come to recognise that my mother hadn’t rejected me, but the fear of rejection and the damaged relationship remained. Since my early twenties, God has done much to heal this inner woundedness. There remained, however, a sense of apartness from my mother and a sense of loss for the healthier mother/daughter relationship that had been taken from me, from us.

In May 2006, during a prayer session for physical healing at the Healing Rooms, God gave one of the prayer team a scripture, part of which was: “I will restore the years the locusts have eaten (Joel 2:25). It spoke to me of my relationship with my mother. I believed God could do this, could somehow fully restore my relationship with my mother, but I wondered what it would ‘look like’ as my mother died when I was nineteen [thirty-five years before the prayer session]. It took a while to be able to put words what happened as a result of the prayer that day. Nearly four years later, I can say it has been neither a fleeting thing nor wishful thinking.

Where before there was a sense of apartness, in my heart my mother and I now stand together. Where the illness and hospitalisation had left me with a deep sense of “me versus the rest”, my mother and I are now on the same side, side by side.  While in my head I know the facts of our fractured relationship, in my heart, spirit and emotions it is as if it never was. What was taken from us has been restored. It feels like we always had a good and wholesome relationship in the years until her death. My mind is in awe of the new reality of our relationship, and there is peace in that part of my heart. This restoration is a marvel to me, and I thank God for the precious thing He has done.

Thank you to all those at the Healing Rooms who prayed for my grand niece Melissa.  She had experienced psychotic episodes which necessitated her withdrawal from her final semester of study.  I saw her on Christmas Day at our family gathering and she was bright and sparkly and back to her normal self.  For her 21st birthday in October I sent her a journal with Jeremiah 29 verse 11 on the cover – a reminder to her that God has plans to prosper her and give her hope for the future.

She will resume her final studies Semester One to graduate in her film making course.

I personally Praise the Lord for her wonderful recovery.

My husband’s heart’s desire was to return to Spain this year to complete the 550 km walk that we began in 2005 on the Camino De Santiago.

He wanted me to accompany him on this walk but I was concerned about my physical ability to do this. I decided to come to the Healing Rooms for prayer.  The physical conditions that I asked for healing included, my knees which had been giving me trouble and my heart for strengthening of it and for the Lord to improve my immunity to infections and keep me well so I wouldn’t be a burden!!!

I also asked for prayer for boldness that I would be able to witness and share my faith with others on the way. This is a walk that many thousands of people do each year to draw close to God! Yes I was able to share my faith and point people to Jesus.

On the flight to London from Hong Kong en route to Spain I became very ill, either from food poisoning or an allergic reaction to something I ate. I remembered the word I received at the Healing Rooms that the Lord would be with me and I was able to trust that He was there healing me so I wasn’t at all anxious.  The reaction passed and I was totally well by the time we landed at Heathrow.

For the remainder of the 10 weeks I was in wonderful health. Not only did I climb the Pyrenees carrying my 7kg pack but I climbed many other hills and descended steep and rocky slopes, in heatwave conditions (at the beginning).  I had a few minor complaints, i.e. heat rash, sore shins, however when I needed a rest after walking 12kms there appeared a taxi to take me the last 8kms of the day to reach the destination.  God certainly knew what I needed.  Thank you God.

Here is some fantastic news about the healing of both of my nephew’s (Will) hips - Praise God and Hallelujah!

Will had Perthes disease in both hips, which is unusual to start with, and he had lost 50% of the bonehead of both femurs. He had been banned from all physical activity for the most part of this year.

Will had scans in late October, to determine whether he would be having total hip replacements in both hips. The scans showed 100% healing of the bones in both hips and amazingly this is called the "healing phase" of the illness. But even the Dr was amazed that this had happened so quickly and so completely. That's because we know why. Praise God for his healing hand. The Dr stated that once the body goes into the "healing phase" of this disease, then it shouldn't affect Will as severely again and he doesn't want to see him for 1 year. He is now allowed to do whatever activity he cares to do!

The Dr congratulated the parents for their diligence in keeping him free from activity, and my brother and sister-in-law are ecstatic with the news, and accept it was part of the process of the illness.

I know this display of God's goodness and awesome healing hand, will not return empty, but will be used for His glory.

My left hip had been painful whenever I did any form of exercise (e.g. walking, jogging, playing tennis) and I’d had this pain for about 8 weeks.  I had been to a physiotherapist and a soft tissue therapist but the pain had continued, despite doing stretching exercises each day.  This prevented me from doing any exercise.

On Monday 25th May, the Lord spoke to me as soon as I woke, saying that I should go to the Healing Rooms for some prayer that night.  So I did, and ever since then I’ve had NO pain and been able to get back to walking, tennis and jogging.  The Lord healed me!  Praise Him!!

I came to the Healing Rooms with pain in my right breast and asked for prayer. (I had been to both my doctor and a naturopath who both suggested I needed an ultrasound). After prayer and much freedom and laughter in the room where I was prayed for, I went away with great confidence that my breast would be healed.

Praise God when I went for the ultrasound there was nothing abnormal there and when I went back to the naturopath her machine showed no abnormality which had shown on the previous results!  She said these words; “Your breast is healed!”

I praise God for His healing gift and His Presence in the Healing Rooms. I am so thankful!

I came along to help at one of the Capital Healing Rooms training sessions (approximately 8-10 months ago), but was having trouble with a prolapse.  I was having difficulty sitting during the sessions so found it more comfortable to lie down in the prayer room during the session times.

There was a word of knowledge to pray for anyone with a prolapse.  (I hadn’t told the person this was my difficulty.)

The Lord healed me during that day!  Praise His Name!

BACK PAIN | 4 Dec 2015

I visited the Capital Healing Rooms in April 2015 seeking healing for my lower back.  I have not had pain in my back other than when I first wake up in the morning and I ask God to get rid of the pain and stiffness.  In 5 minutes it is gone!  I am able to do strenuous work again without fear of damage to my back.   Thank you God!!!

LUNGS | 1 Dec 2015

My friend Sue said that she put me on your prayer list.  In May this year I was diagnosed with Hypersensitivity Pneumonitis which can be a life threatening lung condition.  I was put on high doses of Steroids which helped me breathe, but only covered the symptoms to allow my lungs some time to heal.  It still didn’t look promising even up to a couple of months ago.  I have had severe side effects from the steroids and have been told this could last six months (after stopping the steroids – early November) and my Adrenal Glands (damaged from the steroids – causing chronic fatigue) will take at least eighteen months to heal.  I am writing to thank you for your prayers and would appreciate further ongoing prayer…………….

I thought I would give an update of my progress.  My last CT scan was clear and my Breathing Tests much improved!  My Specialist in Hamilton was surprised at the change and progress.  When I went to the Specialist at the Alfred Hospital in Melbourne he said my lungs are ‘pristine’!   No signs of Ground Glass Changes or Fibrosis (I didn’t have Fibrosis but it would be the next development of the disease).   I feel this is a miracle!!  I am so thankful for this improvement and thank the Lord for it.  I am still struggling with extreme after effects of the medication and hoping God will heal these problems soon too.   Thank you for your wonderful ministry!
