Son Delivered From Allergy To Peanuts

Two years ago, my son who was 3 years old suffered a serious allergic reaction after consuming a peanut butter sandwich. After that episode, he was given doses of emergency medicine and an EpiPen to carry along whenever he went. We were also advised to not consume peanuts in the household and to minimize eating out to reduce the risk of my son being exposed to the allergen, and having a life-threatening allergic reaction.  

Last year, during a routine annual test, we were elated to know that his allergy score had dropped drastically. We were even hopeful that he would outgrow his condition. However, in December 2020, we were informed that our son’s allergy score had gone up. Seeing the result, the doctor shared it was highly unlikely that our son would outgrow his allergy and therefore, recommended that he go for an immunotherapy treatment.  

I was reluctant for our son to undergo the treatment as it would require him to eat increasing amount of peanuts to build up his immunity. By doing so, he would be at risk of having an allergic reaction.  

Our church (New Creation Church) has a custom in which every individual is invited to write down 3 prayer requests at the end of the year. During that period, the church came together virtually to pray for their 3 prayer requests. So, we also asked our son to prepare his prayer requests and he told us that he would like to be able to eat peanuts again. We encouraged him to “see” himself eating peanuts as a faith picture.

On the day our son was due to go for his first immunotherapy treatment session, we partook of the holy Communion and declared that he would be able to eat all things that the Lord has created.

At the session, he underwent a test to determine his threshold for peanuts, starting with a tiny amount of peanut powder. We were told that as long as he was able to consume one full peanut, he would have passed the test.

At the end of the test, he ate a total of 17 peanuts and did not show any signs of allergic reaction! The doctor then cleared him of his allergy and even called it a miracle! Praise the Lord for His faithfulness!

Early in our marriage, our entire world crumbled when my husband left me for another woman. The pain was deep, leading to a two-year separation that brought us to the very brink of divorce.

But the Lord stepped in and turned things around. During that painful season, He did a deep work in my heart, bringing me complete healing and giving me the grace to forgive. Against all odds, He rekindled our love, and we fell in love all over again. My husband gave his life to Jesus and was water baptised right here in this church.

We started our lives afresh with no savings, no financial safety net and no master plan. Yet, the Lord faithfully provided for our needs, enabling my husband to complete his diploma, continue working and eventually earn his degree.

When we felt ready to trust God for a child, I was diagnosed with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), which affected my fertility. As we continued taking our prescribed medication, we declared God’s promises over our bodies: The Lord fights for us. By His stripes, I am healed, and we shall not lack.

I vividly remember attending a service when Pastor Prince called for couples who were trusting God for a child to stand. We stood up, anchoring our faith in the Lord.

Some time later, we rejoiced over a positive pregnancy test, only to be heartbroken by a miscarriage four weeks later. It was a severe test of our faith. A couple of months later, as my husband walked across the stage at his graduation, we still felt a profound emptiness as we grieved our loss. Little did we know that God was already writing the next chapter. I was pregnant again!

Throughout this journey, we held fast to the truth of the divine exchange at the cross. Because Jesus gave His life for us, we knew we could trust Him for healing, restoration and the gift of a family.

The pregnancy wasn't easy. Just one week before delivery, a scan revealed that the umbilical cord was wrapped tightly around our baby's neck. But God had the final word! I went through an induced labour without an epidural and delivered our son naturally, with the cord completely clear of his neck!

God's timing was perfect, down to the smallest detail. Before our son was born, the Lord graciously blessed us with a new home and enabled my husband to complete his degree. And after eight long years of waiting, He blessed us with a healthy, adorable baby boy, whom we named Gabriel, meaning "God is my strength". Praise the Lord!

I am in my 60s, but I am still quite active and fit. Last November, I was admitted to hospital for the first time in my life after becoming very dizzy and breathless. It was discovered that my heart had been stopping intermittently and the doctor immediately inserted a temporary pacemaker.

During my hospitalisation, my family members, ministry pastor, leaders, friends, and the church’s prayer team all prayed for me. I am also so thankful to have sat under Pastor Prince’s ministry for more than 20 years. Despite the bad reports, I had peace, knowing that I am God’s beloved. Throughout the entire time, I continuously played Pastor Prince’s Healing Scriptures on the television in my room.

As the days passed, the doctors could not find the root cause of my condition and told me that the likelihood of needing a permanent pacemaker was high. One night, I came down with an infection and was immediately treated for it. The doctor then suspected that I might have contracted an infection while overseas months earlier, which had affected my heart.

After this episode, my heart started beating independently again, and I was discharged shortly afterwards. However, when I returned for my first 24-hour Holter monitor review, the results were very concerning. They found more than 2,000 heart pauses lasting longer than 2.5 seconds, with the longest pause lasting 4.9 seconds.

My doctor said that, based on those results, the probability of recovery was very low and that I would need a permanent pacemaker.

I decided, together with my doctor, to arrange a second 24-hour Holter monitor test about a month later and postpone the pacemaker surgery. I trusted that God would heal me completely and would not do an incomplete work. I continued to listen to Pastor Prince’s sermons, pray, meditate on healing scriptures, and partake of the holy Communion daily. I also submitted my prayer request for my heart to be completely restored.

On the day of the second Holter monitor review, by God’s grace, the report was good. The doctor said that no atrial fibrillation had been detected and that there was no heart blockage. Therefore, there was no need for a permanent pacemaker.

More recently, in April, I attended another follow-up review and received yet another good report from my doctor. God has healed my heart.

Praise the Lord! Thank You, Jesus! All glory to God.
