“I was lame, but now I walk!”
Lambadi Nation of India
Korra Dhan singh Naik works in the labor fields cultivating sunflower, rice, and wheat. But, for almost two and a half years his legs have been swollen and in terrible pain inhibiting his ability to walk. Kora Dhanh singh Naik used to worship Hindu idols, offering sacrifices every three years to the deities Kallepalli and Maisamma hoping to be cured. Later he tried to be cured at a hospital in the town called Miryalaguda, spending five thousand rupees.
Then one day heard the Word of God in Lambadi from a public address system. He heard about two blind men in the book of Matthew who were healed. He then believed that the same God who healed the blind men could also heal him. Immediately he approached the Pastor seeking prayer. The Pastor anointed him with oil and prayed for him. After one week he slowly walked by faith that God has already healed him. But, when he heard the Word of God again from Matthew, the Almighty God healed his two legs and gave him complete health. He is now able to walk and also do his work better in the fields.
His life has been filled with joy and a desire to know more about the Living God, the one who healed his body. He said FCBH has given him hope and comfort to his family.
