Allergies

Testimony from West Nottingham Healing Rooms In Encounter Magazine January 2025

Last week, whilst on a shopping trip, we decided to go to a coffee shop. It was a cold, wet day and I really fancied a hot chocolate. For some years now, I’ve had an intolerance to milk products and so I can only drink either coconut milk or almond milk, neither of which was available at the café we were in. My initial response was to stick with something like tea but I really wanted a hot chocolate and I felt the Holy Spirit say to me that I was allowing fear to come upon me. I had a real sense that I was to live above the circumstances and not beneath them and I really felt a peace that if I had a hot chocolate with normal milk, the spirit of God within me was far greater than anything that the milk could do to upset my stomach. Having gained a peace on this, I ordered a hot chocolate with normal semi skimmed milk and suffered no consequences whatsoever. Page 7 of 12 I’m not advocating that we all throw away our medicines or ignore medical diagnosis, but I think there is a very real danger that any physical symptoms are exacerbated by a spirit of fear. If the enemy can get us to live fearful and anxious, we are living under his control and that is not God’s best for us. Too many people today are living with food allergies and restricted diets, and living a compromised life because of it. The Bible is very clear, Jesus came to heal. As Christ’s disciples, we need to start to live with the revelation knowledge that we are created to live in Divine Health. Amen.

“A few weeks ago, I thought I would try a different drink and ordered a fruit smoothie whilst at Costa Coffee – It was a new fruit smoothie on the menu. However, as soon as I drank it, I immediately began to feel unwell, and realised it must have had pineapple in it. I always become terribly ill and nauseous, after eating pineapple. A member of the Healing Rooms at Costa Coffee prayed for me, specifically declaring that I would be able to drive home without being sick. Although, I did not feel completely better I didn’t have the violent reaction I usually have to pineapple and I was able to drive home safely.”

“I brought my son to the healing rooms because he had a bad rash on his body, and he would scratch it until it bled. During prayer, my son said he felt something, and that it made his body shiver. The rash went and he was completely healed! I thank God foremost, and I also thank everyone at the Healing Rooms.”
