Evangelist Dea Warford

Healed of lumps: ""The doctor's first discovered lumps in my breasts a year ago. There was one lump under my right arm and one on top of the right breast. When Dea prayed for me, I felt a burning sensation under my arm and up across my right breast and it lasted for four days. When I went back to the Dr., when I got the results, it was totally clear. There were no lumps or anything. The Doctor was surprised that there were no lumps at all now. It told him it was because I was healed by my God." Mary Wallace, Azusa, California

Delivered from drugs: "I had not been in church for two years. I had a nervous breakdown. In desperation, I started to drink again. I lost my marriage. I smoked crack. I wanted to die almost all the time. I know God did something very special when you and Kathy prayed for me. It was almost 2 weeks later as I walked by my drug dealer's house that I realized I'd been delivered. I hadn't thought of drinking or using drugs. I no longer want to die. The self-hatred is gone.   I was also obsessed with men and sex. It was a very big problem in my life. It's gone! No obsession! It's clean! I'm free! My mind is clean. I can control my thoughts. God set me free."
Tawney Glad, Soldatna, Alaska

Now a new person: "I wasn't raised in church. I came to the revival. When we had to go up there and got on our knees and after we had said that prayer, I felt like I was lighter, and something had been lifted off from me. I felt refreshed.   It felt good. I was a new person.
Cassie Authement, Houma, Louisiana

Eats stew for the first time in three years: "I was diagnosed three years ago with Crohn's disease. I had severe pain in my whole body. There hasn't been a day go by without pain. When I was prayed for, the pain went away for the first time in three years. I hadn't been allowed to eat red meat, because I'd get sick within 5 minutes of eating it. I ate stew for the first time in 3 years. I didn't get sick." Pat McDowell, Hillsboro, Missouri

Delivered from compulsive eating: "I have been a compulsive eater for over 40 years. It was nothing for me to eat an entire package of cookies or a pan of brownies at one sitting. I tried every diet I heard of, diet pill, diet clubs. My doctor suggested I have bypass surgery. As nurse, I knew the damage I was doing to my body. As a Christian, I knew I was sinning. But nothing helped. I was depressed, hopeless and deeply in bondage. When you prayed for me, I felt a physical and a spiritual release. Then I felt the Holy Spirit rush in like a strong wind. It was so powerful, it nearly knocked me over. Since then I have been completely free of the compulsion and filled with the joy of the Lord. I am exercising regularly and feel wonderful. I no longer crave little Debbie snack cakes. Instead, I yearn for a closer walk with the Lord." Anonymous, from Illinois

Delivered from addictions: "I had a real ad addiction problem to speed and alcohol. I had the addiction 20 years. I was prayed for. I felt real warm. For the last two days I have felt that same feeling and my cravings are gone. This is the first time in 20 years I have gone two days without craving. The Lord has delivered me." Daniel, Chino Hills, Calif

She's like another child: "My granddaughter, Katrina, that you laid hands on, has been changing for the better. Last year she was acting out so much that they made her leave school. Now she is doing so well that she's down to 2 pills a day. They were giving her 8 a day. She would curse and scream and just really get out of hand. She is really calm. It's like having another child around. Thank you for being an instrument of God." The Aboussie family, St. Louis, MO

Healed of fibro-myalgia:   "When you were in our church, I was healed of fibro-myalgia and have been victorious ever since! You prayed for my husband to be free of sexual sin and he is doing great!"   Anonymous, for privacy purposes

Asthma healed: "I had asthma for 10 years. Sunday night, I could tell I was about to have an attack. You called us forward. Before you prayed, I could feel God healing me. I am now breathing as though I had a breathing treatment, but butter. I usually use an inhaler twice a day. It's been three days, and I haven't used it once. I slept all night long for the first time in 10 years. I usually wake up coughing three or four times." Marie Middaugh, San Diego, California

Can eat French fries now: "I would wake up with incredible pains across my back and around my right side and under my ribcage. I thought it was bad heartburn. Several members of my family have gall bladder problems. I was getting where I couldn't eat. Once I ate, I'd be miserable the rest of the day. We tend to look to blue cross more than we look to the cross of Christ. When Dea came to town, I came up for prayer. Dea told me to try to eat something and I went and had French fries at Burger King. That's been about 3 months ago and I haven't had a problem since!"
Karen McIver, Muncie, Indiana

Born again:   "Christ worked through Dea Warford. I was born again."
Julie Franco, Buena Park, California

Doesn't need cane anymore: "In 1997, a load of pipe fell on me at work. It crushed my hip and got into my back. I lay in a hospital for a year. I haven't worked since. Everywhere I walked with a cane. I came into church tonight with a cane. They prayed for me and 50% of the pain left. Dea asked me if there was any unforgiveness in my heart toward anyone. There was, but I forgave them. They prayed for me again. I became filled with the Spirit. I thought I was going to pass out. I was lifted up and my pain was completely gone. This is the first time in 6 years I have been pain free. It was the first time I could walk up stairs without pain. I don't need this cane anymore."
Ed Barnes, Gillette, Wyoming

Healed of arthritis: "I had arthritis in my back and in my pelvis. Dea prayed for me. Afterwards, next day, I slept for two hours on my side. Since 1974, I have been unable to lie on either side for more than 30 seconds. After that, I'd be in excruciating pain. As I got out of bed, I noticed a warm patch covering my back, going down my leg. It was in all the places that pain had been before. That was Saturday, and today is Thursday. It's been raining, cold and the exact weather that would drive me crazy with pain and discomfort, yet I don't feel a thing wrong with my back. Now, the only way I've been able to fall asleep the past 4 nights is by lying on my side. In fact, last night I slept the entire night on my right side! God heals everyone, not just the "other guy". I know. It happened to me."    Diane Hammons, Enumclaw, WA

Delivered from nicotine: "Due to your ministry, the Lord delivered me from nicotine, fear and unforgiveness. Our Lord Jesus has set me free and healed me from many emotional problems. I now have a peace I have never known before.   Your ministry was an answer to so many of my prayers." Cathy Langwell, Hemet, California

Intimacy with her husband restored: "When I was a child, I was molested by a family member When I married my husband, when we would become intimate, I would feel as thought I was engaging in something evil. I then would clam up. Then I received prayer Monday night of our revival. I began to feel a heaviness be taken off of me. That night I truly for the first time could hold my husband and kiss him with all that I am and could look at him and tell him that I loved him and knew that I meant it for the first time in five years." Dana Barnes, Burney, California

Delivered from fear and nightmares:   "I've known for many years that I had "issues" in my life. Things that kept me ineffective as a Christian. One of the biggest things was fear. Sometimes I felt literally paralyzed by fear. I began having nightmares as a child. I was overcome by an intense fear of death. I was always afraid that either I or someone I loved was going to die. These thoughts and dreams have plagued me for 27 years. That night Dea prayed with me I was completely set free. The only way to describe what I felt is to say that it was refreshing, like drinking an ice cold glass of water on a really hot day. Since then, I have not had any nightmares, the thought of death doesn't seem to have any effect on me."   Janie Edinger, Mt. Jewett, Pennsylvania

Healed of sleep apnea: "My husband Bruce used to have a problem with sleep apnea. He would stop breathing while he was sleeping and his body would struggle take a breath, and he couldn't. After maybe 15 seconds, he would take a huge breath or like a big snore, but it would almost wake him up! So, he couldn't get a deep sleep. He was tired all the time. During the revival, he asked for prayer for that and since then (6 months ago) it hasn't happened again! He is much more rested and cheerful! God gave him a miracle."   Elaina Griffeth, South Royalton, Vermont

Doctors are wrong again:   "My wife Laura had been told for 12 years that she could not have children. When Dea came to our church in Nov. 20, he prophesied that my wife would have a child.
Nov. 18 (almost exactly one year later), our son was born, healthy, happy and perfect."
Mike Lear, Grant Pass, Oregon

Didn't need oxygen: "I had a heart attack 3 years ago and never fully recovered. I couldn't walk any distance without losing my breath. I had to stay at home even on oxygen. Dea prayed for me and, bang, I was on the floor. When I got up, I was fully healed. Today I ran! I walked to the mail box as fast as I could, never short of breath. NO pain! I haven't used oxygen for the first time in weeks and weeks. Before prayer, I had to walk backwards upstairs to the church, stopping to rest. Tonight, I came up all the way with stopping or resting." Elizabeth Kam, Waikoloa, Hawaii

She feels like a brand new person: "I have been a Christian for a long time, but still was suffering with panic disorder, anxiety, obsessive compulsive disorder.   I was on medication for obsessive compulsive disorder. I would have rapid heartbeat. I always counted to number seven so nothing bad would happen to me. I would click lights off and on seven times. I am a nurse, so in my field, I dealt with personalities with a disorder like me. I was afraid a lot. I was afraid at tonight. I was afraid of death. If I had pain, I thought it was cancer. The night you prayed for me, I felt like things were coming out of me. I don't recount anymore. I also was delivered from a strange pain in my side. I am not worried about the medication anymore. The Lord has given me a sense of honesty and cleanliness inside. It is freedom. I feel like a brand new person. "
Chris Williamson, Butte, Montana

She has her laughter back: "With this revival, I have had a lot of changes taken place within the
last 4 days. I had suffered with migraine headaches 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and physical disabilities, where my body shut down below 40%.   When I was prayed for, I felt hot from head to
toe, a tremendous heat and warmth that surround me. My temperature had been subnormal and sometimes wouldn't even reach 95 degrees. I felt cold all the time and had no energy. For three days in a row, my temperature has been normal for the first time in over 2 ½ years. My headaches have been minimal. My energy level is so much higher. Because of sexual abuse, I shied away even in my marriage from sexual involvement. I feel that this is no longer a problem in my life, I want to be with my husband physically and sexually." (Her husband Dave added: "She and been hurting and in so much pain, she couldn't laugh. It was nothing but tears and crying, taking one breath at a time. She has her laughter and joy back.") Debbie Smith, Willington, NC

Both healed of asthma: "My son and I came forward for prayer for asthma a year ago. Devon had had asthma since he was an infant and he had been on all sorts of medications all his life. He is almost eleven now. We came forward for prayer, both of us, for our coughing, allergies and shortness of breath-all symptoms asthma and, we both were delivered! Neither of us has been on
medications since that time." Candy and Devon, Collings Lake, New Jersey

No pain since: "I have osteoporosis and brittle bones. I had to have two surgeries. I had been in constant pain for about two years. I couldn't walk upstairs without a cane. My knees were bad, and I had to have a new hip. The night I was prayed for, I felt like something was inside pushing it out. I got warm all over. I haven't had any pain since, and I could walk up the stairs without my cane without pain." Paul Auvin, Bishop, California

Healed of osteoporosis:   "I had osteoporosis on the back of my neck and my shoulders and was in severe pain for about five years. The night that I was prayed for, the pain left instantly. And, I have no pain. Three months later I am still healed." Nichole Plautz, Lakewood Colorado

She can run: "My problem in my knees started about 8 months ago and it was getting worse all the time. The doctor said it was ruptured and arthritis and fluid on my knees. It hurt all the time. I have had to walk with a cane for 6 months. When Dea called people forward for prayer, I didn't want to come because I had been prayed for a lot of times. But, something nudged me to go. I could feel the Sprit! The pain left in my left leg and then in the right one. Now, it is all gone. I can run without pain for the first time in eight months. I am healed."    Nedra Hardy, West Virginia
