I unceasingly pray in Daniel Prayer Meeting. My wife once told me that I pray even if I would have to skip a meal. In 2009, I even received the Grand Award given through Senior Pastor's drawing lots during the Special Daniel Prayer Meeting Award Ceremony.

In October 2017, I felt a hard lump on the left side of my neck and became fatigued easily. No matter what it was, I was sure that I could be healed. I received Senior Pastor's prayer for the sick in every worship service and drank Muan Sweet Water every day (Exodus 15:25). Without knowing exactly when, the pain was gone, and no lump was felt.

But in November, a month later, a lump was felt again on the right side of my neck. It felt a little stiff and caused pain when I swallowed. I had a check-up and the doctor told me that I had Hashimoto thyroiditis, which is an autoimmune disease in which the thyroid gland is gradually destroyed.

Hearing this, I repented that I had not relied more on the Holy Spirit while praying, and I had not tried to feel God's heart and love in my prayer. After I gained the spiritual realization and repented, I felt better. From that time on I tried more to gain spiritual realization in the Holy Spirit's inspiration when I read the Bible. I tried more for my soul to prosper and to lead a more fruitful believing life. I received Senior Pastor's prayer during every worship service and drank Muan Sweet Water every day. My parish pastor also prayed for me with the handkerchief of power (Acts 19:11-12). Then, the lump was completely gone and again I felt much better. Hallelujah! I give all thanks and glory to God who is always with us.

In the summer of 2016, I felt a lump in my neck. I didn't take it seriously but several months later people around me said that something was sticking out on my neck. An egg-sized lump could be seen on my neck.

The lump got bigger and bigger over time. I went to hospital and heard that there was 3cm cyst in my thyroid. The doctor said that it looked bad and would press my esophagus if it kept growing. I had the fluid in the cyst sac removed through injection, but it became filled again within just a few days.

I had the fluid removed several times, but it was useless. Not until then did I realize it was a spiritual problem. I was reminded that I had complained when something went against what I wanted and prayed in meaningless repetitions for a long time. I began to attend Daniel Prayer Meeting held at 9 P.M. every night and tried hard to pray and repented with heart even when I was tired.

On May 15, 2017, there was a special church event, and I wrote the words 'thyroid cyst' on palm of my hand and in faith I shook hands with Senior Pastor Dr. Jaerock Lee. From then on, the cyst did not grow. I started to pray more earnestly to receive complete healing.

In the prayer, God helped me feel the Lord's love from my heart, and I shed unceasing tears. I was given strength from above to pray with heart. I started to find happiness in prayer and prayed more fervently in Special Daniel Prayer Meeting. I was even given an award in the Award Ceremony. As praying as I did, the cyst became smaller and smaller. Now there is no lump. Hallelujah!
