My name is Daniel Henning and here is a small part of my story or testimony that I pray is a great blessing for you and your family.
I was 24 in 1987 when I fell coming down off a roof while doing some roof work, painting, and siding. I was at the time a young man who was about to go on a unpleasant ride even further from the God I now know as my savior.
When I fell I did not know immediately, but the sudden pop told me something may not be rite. I fell only a short distance, however I landed in such a way, head first. I am or should have been thanking God then, that I did not die at that moment from a broken neck. I did a number on my rotator cuff, sternum, back and neck. I had chronic pain that was so painful no words did it justice now or then.
After many years in the range of 10 plus and after many years of physical therapy and 5 plus surgeries. I was taking even stronger and stronger medication to try to get relief from the pain. I was miserable and in extreme pain. My body was a twisted mess of a once healthy individual. To give you an accurate picture. When I walked straight my upper body was actually pointing slightly right. Guess I don’t have to tell you this was not good.
Anyhow one of the last procedures was to put a couple anchor’s in my shoulder to hold and keep joint in place. This to failed to help. I went back to see again a doctor in NYC . Who was going to do a shoulder replacement. However after I was asleep and under it was determined he would not to be able to help me. Even though it was coming out of joint on the slightest movement. You see the medication I had taken for years (doctor prescribed) made it spasm and my shoulder frooze. I was now addicted to at this point (unwillingly) to my pain medication. And was now a part of my problem. Causing me to be in constant spasm and massive pain. The doctors were saying my problems might be in my head. Even though at this point my shoulder could come out of joint very easy and pictures from then tell a different story. And I’m not saying doctors don’t have a great place for their God given talent and do awesome things at times. But looking back at my problem, it was a combination of spiritual and physical problems that was robbing me of my life. And for this reason I’m glad I did not have last surgery.
You see at this point I was at the end of a long, long extremely long rope and it seemed to be getting shorter rapidly. I was about to give up because I had lost my life with then girl friend and are beautiful little girl. Nothing seemed right and it wasn’t now looking back on things. I felt I was dieing in many ways.
I am however here to tell you that when I was about to give. My God or our Savior was just getting ready to do a mighty work in my life. After about killing myself and realizing that was no answer and a lot harder than one might think. I started talking to my mother saying some prayers with her and her friend (and mine now). I was led to Christ (the anointed one). My mom and her friend thank God they had been Christians for many years (and had prayed for years for me and my family unknowingly to me). Thanks for those prayers and that first bible mom. It saved my life.
I was led to Jesus Christ and Baptized in the Spirit, New Years Eve 2004 in a small town in upstate NY (thank God to Pastor Wayne) and his wife also a Pastor Barbra and people like my mom and Pastor Mike and Sue that teach the unfailing Word of God (the Holy Bible).
I can now tell you that I’m still not perfect, but I am much faster at asking for forgiveness. I can tell you the answer is not with anyone else, but one. The beginning and the end is truly ‘Jesus’ for dieing on the cross and rising three days later. And because of that all things are possible. (thank God)
You see I was not just filled with the Spirit that New Years. I was touched in such a way I know that it would actually be wrong to deny him as my savior. In fact it felt like a ten trillion ton weight was lifted from my chest when I did except him. I was healed of a very sinful life (one that I was unaware of at the time)and was healed of addictions and pain. I was healed of a then deformity. I was healed and made whole. I was, I was filled with the living God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. The One that gave Moses the ten commandments. The One that healed many 2000+ years ago truly does live and is as close as you want him to be.
He is simply and always only a prayer away. It is as simple for you to receive as it was me. Ask the Beginning and the End, the Alpha and Omega, Jesus in your life and watch what He can do. Don’t forget he gave Moses the strength and knowledge and wisdom to save the Jews from Pharroh. He gave Daniel strength to over come the lions. And David the power over Goliath. As He did with countless others from the beginning of time. Simply put, He will never give up on you.
I pray that as you enjoy this series God becomes ever more real in your life. That people pick the bible up, and some for the first time. That you discover what I found, a living God. A God of such compassion He gave his only son, that we might live though him for eternity.
You know David did a great thing in 1st Samuel. He knew the power of spoken words. He spoke his victory over Goliath. As I am speaking over you all now. I pray to that millions are not only saved, but made completely whole from head to toe. That the blind can see and the deaf can hear. Cancer and all diseases must bow down and millions are set free. That miracles come to life for you and your family for what ever you are believing and praying for. That hearts are healed. That you become a new creation as intended. That as you pick up your bibles, great revelation comes to you every time. That you see and hear things in the Spirit. That the Holy One of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob guide your every step forever more. And most important, if you do not have Jesus in your life you except him as your personal savior. That he died for each and everyone of us (meaning you to). That when you ask for his forgiveness of your sins and Jesus to move in your life he answers with a calm still voice. Praise The Lord…. Amen.
God Bless,
Daniel Henning
Ps. Just a good word to think about……..
When you except Jesus and the Holy Spirit sent by our father in heaven enters your life as in this next old testiment scriptural example. Only God knows what is really intended for your life. That if we harken to him as commanded, truly great miracles are possible and do happen.
Exodus 35:30-35
:30 Then Moses said to the Israelites, “See, the Lord has chosen Bezalel son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah, :31 and he has filled him with the Spirit of God, with skill, ability and knowledge in all kinds of crafts- :32 to make artistic designs for work in gold, silver and bronze, :33 to cut and set stones, to work in wood and to engage in all kinds of artistic craftsmanship. :34 And he has given both him and Oholiab son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan, the ability to teach others. :35 He has filled them with skill to do all kinds of work as craftsmen, designers, embroiderers in blue, purple and scarlet yarn and fine linen, and weavers-all of them master craftsmen and designers. 36:1 So Bezalel, Oholiab and every skilled person to whom the Lord has given skill and ability to know how to carry out all the work of constructing the sanctuary (or Tabernacle) are to do the work just as the Lord has commanded.
