A woman who suffered from the pain in her calf was healed completely. She is a member of Kita-Kyusyu Living God Church. She had a swollen calf, and she wasn’t able to walk because of the pain. When she got up in the morning, her calf was a swollen. She felt a cramp while putting muscle into her leg. However, in early morning prayer of the church, she was prayed for healing. A short time later, she said, “Oh, the pain has left me. I can walk as always!” And she rejoiced. We give thanks to the Lord with all our heart.
