Stephan Was Protected From Heart failure

My wife Zsuzsa came to the Lord in March 2001 in Adelaide while visiting her sister there. She came back to Switzerland and preached to me. After having all of my questions answered directly from the scriptures, I received the Holy Spirit, speaking in tongues and I was baptised my full immerision on 2nd June 2001. Our marriage was instantly restored after 7 bad years. I was instantly healed of alcohol addicition, smoking, migraines and bad language. Later on, both our children also came to know God which has been a huge blessing. I have experienced many more miracles and provision since then:

In March 2011 I had to go for heart surgery and received 6 bypasses. Weeks before this I had to go for a ‘cardiac catheter examination’ and they found the arteries on one side of the coronary vessel were nearly all closed. The cardiologist later said to me ‘it’s not possible that you are still walking around, your heart found another way to work’. I knew that the Lord had been protecting me for a long time as the problems with my heart and breathing had existed for a number of years. The heart surgery went really well and the recovery time was very short, I only missed one meeting, praise the Lord!

In August 2012 after laying a cable in the church hall, I stood up and instantly felt a big pain in my back. I could barely walk, let alone stand straight. The pain got worse over the coming weeks and I was unable to drive. Lying in bed was painful & sitting in a chair to work was also a big problem. I had doubts and imagined myself needing to be operated on. As time went on my left thigh started to become numb, so I decided to see a doctor. After he checked me he said that I had a herniated, slipped vertebral disc and that the spinal disc was pressing on the spinal nerve. They would have to operate if there was no change over the coming days. On this diagnosis, I began praying harder and more earnestly. One morning, 2-3 days later, I woke up and I felt like a young man again. There was no more pain in my back, my thigh was no longer numb - the Lord had completely healed me!

In the summer of 2013 I broke my small toe, an x-ray showed a clear cut through the bone. It was painful and my toe was swollen and blue.I prayed and after 3 days the swelling went down and the colour went back to normal, I could bend my toe again and it was comepletely healed!

food which was devastating. My doctor was on holidays so he was unable to see me. In a way I was glad as doctors never provide good news, yet God is a mighty doctor who can fix any problem for free! Along with my loss of taste, I began having trouble writing, my hands were too shaky and couldn’t read what I was writing. I became very forgetful, once I was even went to the wrong building trying to find my work office. I stood in the elevator unable to recall where to go, after 12 years years of working in the same place. Many other strange moments like this happened which made me realise this was serious. On Sunday 9th November, we went to a restaurant for dinner after the meeting. By this stage I’d completely lost all sense of taste, I couldn’t even tell if the food was savoury or sweet. We went home later and had prayerfor myself and for many others we knew who were in need of healing.
I remebered all the situations in my life where the Lord had healed and I felt completely calm. The next morning I woke up and could taste my breakfast, read and write normally and my memory is now working as well as it should for someone my age! I am completely healed.

Praise the Lord for this great life!
