"Prayer Testimony by Dwayne Anderson"
(Used with Permission)


Dear People of God,

I know your time is precious so I won’t take much of it, but please allow me to tell you my testimony. It is how I am able to stand today.


Eight years ago I was diagnosed with CML - Chronic Malignant Leukemia. A few years prior to being diagnosed I had started feeling different. I thought it was due to getting old, even though I was only approaching 35. December 4,1999 I went to the doctors for a general check up. The doctor order blood work; a couple days later he called and order a retest of blood work. I found out my test results January 4, 2000. When I was told that I had cancer , I was told that it was fatal and I was living in the last year of my sickness. My white blood cells counts were 7,500 when normally they are suppose to be under 500. My spleen was so enlarged with white blood cells that it was extended below my ribs.


I was giving 3 options for treatment. One was to have a bone marrow transplant, two was to take injections of interferon twice a day and three was to go on a study and try out this new drug which was liquid chemo and was still undergoing FDA approval.


That night my wife and I went to a bible study at some friends house. The house belong to 3 sister, Sister Mary and Sister Martha who were twins, and sister Thelma. At the bible study I met a man by the name of Prophet Bill. He laid hands on me and I went out in the spirit. For the first time, When I got up I felt different; I knew that I was healed because I hadn’t felt like I did in a long time. I felt my stomach and I could no longer feel my spleen, it had went back behind my ribs and I did not feel any more pain.

The next week when I went back to the doctors to find out about my treatment, the doctor confirm that my spleen was no longer enlarged. My blood count had went down to 6,000. He was amazed that my symptoms were changed for the better in one week. I told him that Jesus had healed me. He didn’t believed it because he believed in Evolution. He put me on the study for the liquid Chemo. I started the pills even though I knew that God had healed me. My blood count continued to drop until it went all the way down to 600 and then it stabilized. Eventually I stopped taking the medicine daily because I truly believe that the Lord has healed me. I should had been dead 8 years ago, according to my doctor, but the Lord said “Not So”.
