Deacon Yongsung Kim, age 71, Parish 16, Manmin Central Church


In June 2015, my face was swollen and my ears were ringing, and I almost lost ability to hear. My nose was swollen as well, causing much pain and difficulty in breathing. I was diagnosed with otitis media, nasal polyps, and sinus infection. What was worse, the vision in my right eye diminished and things looked so blurred through the eye. I was told that all these were all caused by high blood pressure and diabetes.



I had surgery for otitis media and removal of nasal polyps, but it turned worse and in April 2016 I was found to have class-two disability. My right eye sight became worse and I lost vision completely, so I couldn't even see light. I went to many hospitals but they just told me that the only thing I could do for my ears was to use hearing aids and there was no way to heal my blind eye.

'How could all these things happen to me?' I was caught up in despair. I avoided others because I had difficulty in talking to others in person as well as on the phone. I felt so sad and depressed. I thought the only way to survive this is to rely on God with faith.

I began to listen to Senior Pastor Dr. Jaerock Lee's sermons with hearing aids. As I listened carefully, I came to have faith that I would be healed of my eye and ear problems that couldn't be healed in a hospital. I ought to have relied on God from the beginning of my problem. I regretted and repented my foolishness that I had tried worldly medicine. I started to attend Daniel Prayer Meeting every night and attended all kinds of services including Wednesday Service and Friday All-night Service.

Dr. Lee said in particular that God would heal eye-related problems in Manmin Summer Retreat 2016. I thought it was an opportunity for me to receive answers.

On August 8 the first day of the retreat Divine Healing Meeting was held. When Senior Pastor prayed for the sick, I felt clearing in my eyes. Back at home, I realized a miracle had taken place.

Light came to my right eye! Hallelujah!

I also could hear better and better in both ears, and finally I came to hear what others said without hearing aids. My eye became better and better so I was able to distinguish things I saw. Now I can listen to sermons and talk on the phone without hearing aids, and I was also healed of diabetes. My blood sugar level is now normal.

I realized I can see and hear well by the grace of God. I give all thanks and glory to God who healed me, and give thanks to Senior Pastor who prayed for me.
