Greetings again,

We just received the following letter from Heidi Baker:

HEIDI'S LETTER 10/27/05

Thank you for praying for me and believing God with me. The Lord has done marvelous things for me. I felt Jesus told me to go and preach in Toronto, and that He would heal me.

I saw a specialist in South Africa last Wednesday. He said the antibiotics were able to keep the infection from spreading as long as I was on the IV drip, but they were not able to kill the MRSA bacteria.
My only hope, according to the doctor, was to go to the States and check into a university medical center where they would operate to cut out and drain the infection. He told me that after a month in the hospital they might be able to make progress.

I believed Jesus had another plan. I booked a flight with Rolland and told the doctors that I was checking out to see a top specialist in Toronto, Canada. I think you all know Him! When I arrived late on Thursday afternoon, I was very weak and in a lot of pain. I had to go almost immediately to the conference to speak. I worshiped in my weakness and believed Jesus for a miracle. When I got up to preach from the book of Zechariah, I felt the supernatural power of God flowing through me. The infection was literally being healed as I was speaking.
At the end I felt Jesus call me to dance with Him. He poured His love and power through me!!!

The next morning I got up early and went for a jog!!! On Saturday I went to a famous hospital in California and showed the emergency doctors all my lab reports and the specialist's letter from South Africa. They got ready to admit me, but I asked them to please look at the "infection" first. The doctor said, "This is healing up well. You won't need an operation." Then I told him what Jesus did for me. He said, "Praise the Lord! This is amazing!"

I am still committed to changing my lifestyle and spending even more time to rest in His glory Presence. I am forever grateful for all your love and prayers. Jesus did a mighty miracle!

Love, Heidi
