We have been partners with AWM for over 10 years now. We have studied with Andrew, learned from Andrew and grown in our faith with Andrew. We even had the pleasure of meeting him once in Phoenix, AZ, and saw him again in California at one of the events.
Our daughter Katherine is wheelchair-bound since she suffered the effects of a seizure when she was 16 months old.
Saturday night I was giving our Daughter Katherine a little snack before bed. After her fourth bite, she just stopped breathing. I called for my husband and we unstrapped her to lay her on the floor. She was very rigid, still no breathing. We laid her on the floor. All of a sudden Katherine’s eyes rolled back, her heart stopped, she went totally limp. And I saw her spirit leave her body. I kept yelling NO NO NO! And my husband yelled COME BACK, COME BACK, when her spirit was about 3 feet away from her body, I yelled, “Katherine-you come back in your body in the name of Jesus!” There was nothing, she was gone, just a shell. I looked up at her spirit again and I said: Katherine, do you hear me? Get back in your body NOW, in the name of Jesus!” I watched her spirit come back down and into her body, as it filled her body, she took her first gasp of air, her color started to come back and her eyes came forward. Our sweet daughter was back!
It took the ambulance at least 12 minutes to get to our home. When they arrived we had Katherine up on the couch. Her color was better, she was breathing better. We told the four men that came to help exactly what happened. One man seemed to believe us, two men looked at us like we were nuts and I am guessing that the fourth man became a Christian by the end of his shift. They checked her vitals and they couldn’t believe it. They said you told us your daughter died at 11:57 pm and she was raised from the dead around 12:02 am. We got here at about 12:10 am. Her blood pressure is perfect, her pulse is perfect and her oxygen is between 98-99%. We put Katherine back in her chair and took her to the ER, we totally believe in divine appointments so we told everyone what had happened, what really happened. The doctors and nurses were amazing. Katherine still sounded junky in her breathing so they had the respiratory team come in, they did what is called a deep suctioning, they pulled out a mucus plug, which is what blocked off her airway. All I can say is, Saturday night our daughter Katherine died and Sunday morning she rose from the dead. Yes, she was dead and now she is alive. Thank you, Jesus, for saving our sweet daughter and thank you, Andrew, for teaching us A Better Way To Pray! <3 We will never forget what happened. And we will never stop praising the Lord for bringing our daughter back to us. God bless you all.
