Anna's Experience with God
"As I lay in my bed on January 1, 1976, my mind began to wander and think about the wonderful and miraculous things that the Lord has done for me. The most wonderful miracle happened when I was 14 years old on a Saturday night, July 23, 1947 in Charlotte, NC.
Earlier in the evening my little cousin scratched me in my eye when we were playing. My eye was blood shot and tearing and very painful. When the alter call was made I went up to be prayed for. Bishop Hancock anointed my head with oil in the name of Jesus and laid his hand on my head and began to pray the prayer of faith, something wonderful and miraculous happened to me. The Lord healed my eye and saved my soul that very moment. With the evidence of speaking with tongues as the Spirit gave utterance, I began magnifying and praising the Lord.
I am happy and content within my soul because I know that all we have to do is ask and believe and the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ will deliver us from any condition. If it is His will. I feel closer to God and know that I can rely on Him."
