Miracle Testimony Of Annie Littlepage
I was oppressed, nervous and worried all the time. I did not have any joy or
peace. It
 seemed like the world was closing in on me. I decided to go to the
doctor and he told me that I was suffering from nerves. He put me on
tranquilizers and told me I could take them for a long time if I did not abuse
them. For a few months, I took 2 or 3 pills per week. Afterward, I had to take
pills everyday. Like the woman with the issue of blood, instead of getting
better, I was getting worse. I started to feel heavy and tight in my chest. I
was miserable. I hated to see the sun go down. I was afraid that I would not
live through the night. There was something after me all the time. It told me
that I was not going to live. It would tell me that I was going to die. I was so
depressed and bad that I wanted to move away from Tuscaloosa. I felt like I
wanted to go somewhere nobody would know me. I did not want to go and visit
anyone or do anything. Even when my own daughter would come by to take me home
with her, I would always find some excuse not to go. I tried many things looking
for peace and help, but nothing seemed to work for me. I would watch all the
soap operas everyday from 10 a.m. until 3 p.m. I realized this was not doing me
any good. I stopped watching them because they were driving me crazier. I tried
working puzzles thinking this might help. It did not. I tried several outlets
but I was still in bondage to fear, torment, nervous anxiety. I was vexed. I was
a prisoner in my own home. The devil had a hold on me that I could not seem too
break out of. I sat by a window hours at a time staring out the window. Days
were too short, and nights were too long. I could not sleep. I wanted the day to
be night and the night to be day. I was depressed and discouraged. Tranquilizers
and sleeping pills did not produce what I needed. I felt sick, helpless, useless
and empty.
A few months later I heard about the Healing, Blessing, Miracle Service being
held at the Double Portion Church. I did not know anything about this kind of
service, but I was ready to try something else because nothing was working for
me. I went to the service one Friday morning and listened to Sarah Banks preach
and pray. I was encouraged to go back again, so I did. I had not yet received
prayer myself but I made up my mind to go again the next week. I was not
discouraged, I was encouraged. The devil even tried to tell me that Sister Sarah
did not want to pray for me because she could see wrong things about me. But I
did not give up, I went again. This time I received prayer. I was a mixed up
human being. Something told me that I was going to die and not live. But thank
God I heard Sister Sarah preach on a Friday morning from Isaiah 53. she told how
Jesus Christ hung on that cross and took nails in his own hands and feet. She
told how he wore thorns on his head, took a spear in his side and was striped on
his back. She told about the shedding of his precious blood that would deliver
whosoever would believe him. I felt something I had never felt. I heard
something I had never heard. I will always remember it. After she preached a
good Jesus, a powerful Jesus; a Jesus that not only cared for me but also would
deliver me and heal me, she prayed for me. Whatever had tried to destroy me was
turned away from me that day. I was delivered from death, torment, fear,
oppression, nerves, pills and sleepless nights. I was baptized in the Holy
Ghost. I went home shouting and praising God. I do not need pills,
tranquilizers, the doctor anymore. I am healed, delivered and set free!
If it had not been for the good news I heard and prayer I received from
Evangelist Sarah Banks, I would have been put in an institution and would probably still be there
today. I love Jesus and He loves me. I believe anyone who is searching for the
truth can find help in these services the same as I did.
