A couple of days after this dream, I was admitted to the British Hospital in the military base of Acrotiri, after a predetermined arrangement, for some further examinations for a possible remedy by distinguished British doctors. Bear in mind that the admittance to that specific hospital is not an easy matter. Only if the other hospitals and the doctors in Cyprus could not do anything concerning your case, were you given the opportunity to be admitted. This was therefore the last effort...from the human point of view. Also keep in mind what preceded my admittance to the hospital: collective fasting and prayer as well as the vivid dream I had had.

Quite soon, doctors of various specializations began to examine me carrying out different tests on me. I had about 15 blood tests (half of them had been sent to England to be examined ). The doctors made a puncture in my vertebra to get liquid and they also took filings from the skin of my toes. When they had the results in their hands, they came to explain to me. All of them had the same opinion as far as the diagnosis is concerned. They all said that I was suffering from “Erythema Multiformae” and the course of treatment with cortisone was the only advisable treatment which could only “delay the reappearance of the symptoms.” In other words the message was: “There is no remedy!”

Disappointed with the doctors’ comments, I asked them very simply: “Do you mean there is no remedy?” They answered with these “comforting” words: “When you are about 50-60 years old this disease will gradually start to appear more rarely.” From the human point of view I was totally disappointed· however, with the Lord, I was not disappointed at all.

After a few months, specifically on the 4th of July 1988, I would marry Andry and, soon after the wedding we would go to America for studies. Normally, this allergic sickness would have appeared twice till that time and, what is even more alarming was the possibility that it could appear during the days of our wedding preparations. If this had happened, then everything would have had to be postponed.

Thank God, the wedding was held as we had planned, then we went to America and everything was normal. It was then that the Lord vividly reminded me of the dream I had had and which had sealed the answer to the prayer for my total healing. I was healed! I then started to confess my healing with joy and boldness and my pastor brother Dimitris Cospetas, who with much love and care taught me the Word of God as regards healing and how to keep this healing. I thank the Lord for healing my body from the oppression of this sickness. Finally, I was totally healed… and I still am healed and whole today!

“But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon Him; and with His stripes we are healed.” ( Isaiah 53:5 )

“That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Isaiah the prophet, saying, Himself took our infirmities, and bare our sicknesses.” ( Matthew 8:17 )

“Who His own self bare our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.” ( A' Peter 2:24 )

“Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written. Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree.” ( Galatians 3:13 )

The devil had attempted to destroy my mouth but the Lord set me free to confess Him and He made me preacher of the Gospel. Our Living God is Wonderful indeed. Hallelujah!

Today I can shout it out with boldness and it can be heard, I am free: Spirit

( B' Corinthians 5:17 ), Soul ( James 1:21 ) and Body ( Isaiah 53:5 )

“But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon Him; and with His stripes we are healed.” ( Isaiah 53:5 )

Jesus is Lord. Amen!
