My name is Merick, and I'm located in Knoxville, Tennessee, USA.
-
I'm originally from East Africa, Tanzania,
and I came over here back in 2007.
-
Since that time, after about five years passed, I then started to notice some changes.
-
I was experiencing pain in
my stomach, a lot of pain,
-
especially when I ate beans,
tomato or lemon juice.
-
I was experiencing a lot of pain,
so I lived with it for a while.
-
And then I decided to go and see a doctor for it and they made an appointment.
-
On the day of the procedure,
where they put a camera in me,
-
the result came that I had gas -
there was too much gas in me.
-
They called it gastritis,
which caused a lot of pain.
-
Even sometimes I felt heart pain.
-
Before, I was thinking it was a heart issue - as if I was about to have a heart attack.
-
Then, I was experiencing a lot of headaches.
-
So they put me on medicine
and I was taking medicine
-
to reduce gas because there is no medicine to heal that kind of situation.
-
I continued to take medicine.
-
At the end of the day, I thought, ‘I'm going to keep taking medicine always.’
-
Then I said, ‘No, I can trust in God because I know God is able to bring change in me.’
-
And I kept on praying - but I was still experiencing the pain in me.
-
I quit taking the medicine, so whenever
I ate those kinds of food...
-
Because I couldn’t stop eating the food they told me to stop,
-
which I was eating since I was in Africa.
-
I experienced that pain
for almost eight years.
-
One day I was on social media - and I knew Brother Chris since he was at The SCOAN.
-
I discovered he came back to UK,
and I continued to follow him.
-
I know he’s a good, humble man of God.
-
And I saw how people connected with him and how he was encouraging them.
-
So I was very blessed with
his encouragement.
-
I continued to encourage myself with whatever he encouraged me.
-
I continued to connect and
encourage myself with it.
-
And then I saw a link about
how to connect for prayer.
-
I know the Spirit of God was directing me to follow that link and submit my prayer request.
-
When I sent my request, I was invited to join the Interactive Prayer on May 4, 2024.
-
I connected to the service,
waiting for Brother Chris to come.
-
So while I was connected,
it was the time of testimonies.
-
I was connected, listening as people testified to what God had done in their lives.
-
The last person, a lady from South Africa,
-
was testifying about the same problem
I was going through at that moment.
-
That is what she was testifying.
-
I knew that it was a divine appointment, and I knew I was receiving my healing
-
right there after I believed that if God healed her, He would heal me too.
-
So I continued in prayer, believing ‘today is my day’ and I would receive my healing.
-
As Brother Chris came, we joined in prayer. We prayed and prayed.
-
And from that moment,
I started feeling change in me.
-
I started to feel peace.
I didn’t feel any kind of pain.
-
And after prayer, I went and ate that kind of food that would usually cause me pain,
-
and I never felt pain anymore - until today!
-
God is able and He did it for me.
-
When I eat beans or any kind of food that contains lemon, tomato or stuff like that,
-
I don't feel pain anymore.
-
Or if I drink passionfruit or orange juice,
I don’t have pain anymore.
-
So there is no pain anymore.
-
And actually, I used to have
a hard time sleeping.
-
When I ate, I would have
to sleep on one side.
-
Because sometimes I would
experience reflux when I slept.
-
I would have to use a pillow to
elevate my head when I slept.
-
But God did it for me.
-
I want to tell people - our God is wonderful
and He’s a loving Father.
-
He knows what we’re feeling.
He knows our pain. He knows our cry.
-
And He always sets up divine appointments for us.
-
He always feels what we feel.
-
Nobody can feel the way we feel - as God.
-
No one can see our tears - as God.
-
So God always has compassion on us.
-
As a child of God, you also have to believe.
-
If God did it for me, He will do it for you too. He is a good God!
