Recent Miracles

Deborah and I were sitting near the back of the church while Pastor Ricky Robert’s was having personal ministry. We were just quietly sitting and waiting.

All of a sudden I noticed a little white fluff floating down. I gave it a puff of my breathe, and it went floating away. Then another appeared, but it was about one half inch long, and I knew it was a feather—and angel feather!

I looked at Deborah and asked her if she felt the presence of an angel, too, and she said yes.

Pastor Ricky was at the opposite end of the room, laying hands on a person. He turned and looked back towards our way and said, “There are angels in this room.” (We knew it to be so!)

Susan and Ben Estanislao and family were in Jacksonville on furlough from Nicaragua, their mission field under LifeLink, International. Susan and her daughter went to a Thursday night meeting at True Light Ministries. At the end of the service she went up for prayer, and the prophecy was one sentence: “It is broken, and if you had not come it would not have been broken.” She wondered what that meant.

When they got back to Nicaragua, she found out exactly what the prophecy and the breaking of the curse was about.

For about seven months they had had a battle with the native-born former pastor of the church they had built and established. In the beginning they had been so thrilled with the pastor. He had been a Sandanista soldier years before and had been born again and was zealous for the Lord. The ministry was going so well. He had started an outreach to the children, had a weekly feeding program, and weekly services. He had a positive, people-pleasing personality. His wife joined him in ministry, and they had three children.
They were living in quarters built into the back of the church for them.

The poverty level in Nicaragua is pervasive; people live in shelters made of cardboard, plastic sheeting, tin, etc. So the pastor was well off comparatively. The enemy came in and he wanted to take the ministry for himself. He tried to take it from LifeLink and put it under a Nicaraguan title so he could transfer it to himself. LifeLink asked him to leave, but he refused to vacate the property. (During all this, his wife and children left him.)

Susan received the prophecy on a Thursday night. They arrived in Nicaragua on the following Tuesday. Through the lawyers they found that the pastor had left the property that very day.

I have five brothers, a son and a husband. I told my son and husband what Ricky saw and felt compelled to tell my brother Charlie. Charlie listened to what was said, he went to church with me two weeks later on Thursday night, went up for prayer because he has “feet problems”. The Holy Spirit kept Charlie up for prayers for a very long time, others sat down after prayer but Charlie just stood there, for maybe an hour!

Two weeks later Charlie called and said, “I beleive it was me who had the Spirit of Death”. Charlie was in an accident yesterday in a store while shopping for floor tile. He has a concussion and cut his knee so deep they could hardly stop the bleeding. Praise the Lord he did not die.

Now Charlie is asking me to send the article about the young man in Iraq who was miraculously healed after prayer from TLM this past month. The Lord gives wake-up calls, he may call several times, and he may call once. Answer when he calls, recognize it is HIM calling!

Dear True Light Ministries;

I am writing to report that twice within two weeks, (2/14/08-2/22/08), I personally received a miraculous Word and a healing at True Light Ministries in Jacksonville, FL. These gifts came from the Lord through Dr. Roberts and Sister Dot. The prophetuc words were by Dr. Ricky and said, " Islam, ..Islam.. I hear the word Islam. Is this a group? I believe this is a group. I beleive they are in danger. I don't think they know that they are all in danger. Can you get in touch with them?" What the Prophet did not know was this. My team leader was in Africa with a small group of women & children. I had only asked him to pray for a pastor in Africa. He then got the above words. As Intercessors, three of us had seen a danger for the pastor but we thought it was an african disease. We thought he needed to come home and see an American doctor. This was not true. The entire picture changed at the Words of the Prophet. I immediately called Africa and spoke to Pastor Louis. After telling him the Words of the Lord, he told me something that he had never told the Intercessors. He said, "We are renting an apartment within a compound where there is set up a "Muslim Altar". My team has converted one of the Muslim women who live here. She has a brother who is very angry with us." Well, I just screamed and we began to bind and loose and pray protection over them and this is what Dr. Roberts had done in his meeting. Presently, they are making plans to return home to the USA . They will return to different living quarters in Ghana in the future. We are all grateful to the Lord and his servant for His unexpected words to the team.

Next report...
The next Thursday night and Friday visits to True Light Ministries brought to me a much needed healing. I ,as well I suspect,as the entire body of Christ, have been under attack from the enemy and all enemies of Jesus. My personal attacks have been from various infirmnities. All are understood by me to be a lie but I have been unable to fight the battles on my own. I enlisted the help of Sister Dot and Dianne on that Friday. I had bronchitis, flu and a serious lung congestion on Feb. 22. After Sister Dot prayed for me she said that when I awoke on Saturday morning all the congestion would be gone. I thanked them, went home and went to bed. When I woke up on Saturday morning I was amazed to realize that all the congestion in my chest had indeed, all cleared up!! Praise the Lord for the true Believers and Servants at True Light Ministries in Jacksonville, FL.

Well Pastor, you have been asking me to do this for a while, so here it is!!!
I first attended True Light Ministries in July of 2005. I was very ill the night I came, so much so that I was seated on the floor waiting for prayer because I could not stay standing. Of course, all I could think about was getting prayer for my illness. However, when you came to pray over me, you did not address the illness. Instead, you gave me a word from God to "stop condemning myself". I had absolutely no idea what that meant and I was somewhat disappointed because I wanted prayer for my sickness.

The next day I was driving and praying about something for someone when I suddenly had a realization of what your word the night before meant. Without going into detail, I can say that that completely opened up my prayer life.
So, I decided that TLM was a place God was in and I wanted to be there. God knew that night what I really needed and Pastor Ricky was able to look past the illness that I obviously wanted prayer about and listen instead to what God was showing him about me. So, I continued to attend the prayer meetings each week.

The next week I asked for prayer about trying to conceive a child. My husband and I had been trying for about 6 months without success. My doctor was just saying to give it more time, but since my husband was already in his 40’s I was of course anxious for it to happen soon. That night you prophesied that I would have a baby. You even asked me if I wanted a boy or a girl. I said I wanted a girl, and you hesitated and said that I was having a boy, but that God would give me the desires of my heart. Later in that meeting you said there was an angel in the room and it was knitting baby booties. You also said that night that when the “male child is born, nations will tremble”.

I continued to come to the meetings month after month even though I had not been able to become pregnant. Every time God would continue to confirm that I was going to have a child, possibly more than one. At some point along the way I felt as though God was asking me to give up something in my life that I did not want to let go of. It was not a sin per se but something He wanted me to let go of. I kept holding on to it, which of course then made that a sin.

Finally in the summer of 2006 my husband and I sought medical intervention to become pregnant. We found that there were medical reasons for the infertility and that without the treatment we had a 1% chance of conceiving. After much prayer and believing that God was ok with us doing it, we had the treatment done. At that same time, I finally decided to let go of the thing that God had been asking me to let go of.

Well, we conceived with the first treatment, even though it was only supposed to give us a 10% chance. Praise God. At week 19 we found out that it was a boy, just as Pastor had prophesied more than a year and a half before. Well, as for God giving me the desire of my heart? This baby is exactly that. God knew what I wanted even though I thought I did. I LOVE being the mom to a beautiful boy. God continues to tell me that this child is great in His kingdom and I continue to come to this ministry where God is because now I have the job of raising this precious child of God to love Him and do His mighty will in his life. Thank you Pastor for your faithful prayers over this child and me. I tell him every night that you and Mama Dot love him!! Cherish

Arrived at Ft Sam Houston in San Antonio, TX on Tuesday morning
(22-Jan-2008) to receive treatment for the burns.

I want to thank you and everyone for their prayers for my nephew, Donnie. He is now at home with his wife and receiving outpatient treatment for the burns. He is doing well, still feels a bit “beat up” and still in pain from the burns and back, but spirits are good. I am going to speak to him and his mother to request their own testimony in regards to this miraculous blessing/healing from God. I know that she (his mother) has been praising God daily and spreading the news of her son’s miracle to everyone that will listen.
On another note, Donnie had no idea as to the request made by my son or the prayer on that Thursday night. When his mother told him the story last week she said it brought him to tears. He could not believe that his cousin loved him so much as to “keep his own sickness to save his cousin”. He couldn’t get over the fact that God would do this for him…heal him like he did. That there were people left in this world like you and your ministry out there still working for God in the ways you guys are. I think he gets it now.
His mother told him that once he is well enough to come back to Jacksonville, I wanted him to join us one Thursday night at True Light. She told him that I wanted everyone to see our family’s miracle. He, of course, agreed. So, as soon as he is here, I will let you guys know that we are coming.
Again, thank you. It is so seldom that we open our eyes and faith to see the miracles that God has for us, to accept them….to “take” them. I feel so blessed as to have been able to open my eyes, stand fast in my faith and take this miracle for my family. And I feel even more blessed that I have a nephew that is a walking and talking testament to what God can and will do for us and that I have been blessed with the opportunity to not only tell everyone, but show everyone that God is truly an awesome God!!!

~hey dot... this is Kimlin - you asked me to share testimony regarding my experience with the Angel of God (on the stage). If you need more than this, let me know, but I thought I'd get this to you while I remember that you asked this of me.
December 20th 2007, Ricky (Roberts) communicated to the congregation that an Angel of God had visited on several occasions, and after some people had encounters with the Angel - having walked across the stage at True Light Ministries - they received vehicles, the keys handed to them free of charge. My 1996 Ford Windstar minivan had for some time been "dieing", and so I decided that I wanted to walk the stage, and see what God may do for me. There are many other things that my heart asks God for, including complete restoration of my spine, having been diagnosed with several problems - which I refuse to give in to. Ricky also spoke of huge financial prosperity coming in the lives of some people, a few of whom already know who they are. When I visitited True Light about a year ago, God spoke through Ricky: "Son, this woman standing before you has been abused by the church... but I have given her many Promises. I will restore to her all that the locusts have eaten."... so I walk in Faith that He will Provide.
After climbing the few steps to the stage, I crossed over some cables on the floor. It was like crossing a threshold. I'm not a stranger to God's Presence, and I felt it after crossing this "threshold". I began walking toe-to-heel, and giggled because it was like what I've seen on tv of a drunken person walking a straight line in a sobriety test. A lady usher held me back with her hand, stating that I needed to wait for the person who was ahead of me to move further along. I literally felt a hand on my lower back - even though there was no human touching me. It gently pushed me forward, but because the woman held me back, my spine gently twisted to my left, little-by-little, toward her. She removed her hand, and my spine automatically straightened up as I took a step forward. My body felt like "jello", but I remained upright, and kept walking toe-to-heel, with my hands on my thighs. About halfway across the stage, I heard God say, "You're walking a tight-rope, and I AM the One keeping you balanced. You are My Bride... I will provide." The Hand remained on my back until I stepped off the first step at the other end of the stage, but I still felt a little like "jello" for a short while after sitting down.
I have had Favor in God's Eyes for years, and therefore in the eyes of many people as well, but there have been several back-to-back Blessings since the experience of God's Hand on my back:
~2 days later, I found a Jeep for sale at $54,000, with 16,500 original miles; I checked it out, and found the vehicle and engine in really good shape - and the man dropped the price another $500; so I'm waiting for God to provide the money to purchase the SUV...
~my mom gave me $260 for Christmas, which is a big thinig for her, as my step-father isn't always in agreement with her being that generous...
~I was REALLY surprised when a coworker, whose not known for his generosity or favors, gave me the $25 Winn Dixie gift card that he received from our employer...
~my van "died" a week ago, and I'd decided to sell it to a junk yard; my landlord asked if I'd donate it to the charity he works for, because his mechanic can use the parts; the man gave me the $50 I would have received for the van from a junk yard...
~the same man, who needs the title to the van (which I haven't been able to find, due to moving a few times since I bought the van), said he'd pay half of the cost for the replacement title...
~another Blessing was just a simple but heartfelt "thank you" from a young lady I was able to help after witnessing her car accident (she hit a highway guard-wall head-on, but was onlky stunned)...
~and another Blessing came from a homeless woman I minister to, when she gave me some sticky-notes she'd found - I use "stickies" all the time...
It seems that there a few other things as well, but I don't remember them at the moment.
I hope this is what you needed of me... let me know. I'll see you again soon - it depends on my transportation (I live in Historic Riverside).
Thank you for the opportunity to share!!!
Kimlin

On Thursday night, you asked if I would write something about what the ministry has meant to me.....Gladly! Since you indicated that you only have a small space for this in the newsletter, I will be brief....(and I can be a very wordy writer!) I could tell you a story about how I came to be a searcher for the truth, but let me just say, thats all that I will accept from a ministry. I am not any kind of scholar, but I do love the WORD, and have studied on my own quite a bit. I am very attuned to ignorance, lies, false teachings etc.... and, I do not want my "ears tickled". I need truth. At True Light Ministries, I hear the truth of God taught. Not only does Dr. Ricky teach the truth, but he is so gentle with the people. It is so obvious that he loves us all, every single one who walks in that door. It is God's love that dwells in him, and which was in him even as a retarded student before his healing. The teachers used him as a babysitter in class, and in high school after being healed, he was helping the other students. He is gentle when he teaches and when he prays for people. No one could ever be offended or feel threatened, and I think it is for that very reason, people who have big problems, like witches, or homosexuals are willing to come to him for prayer and deliverance.
I have certainly been blessed by the teachings, the love of the staff, and by personal "Words" from God during prayer time. I get the annointed prayer hankerchiefs, carry one on my person and sleep with one under my pillow. I have given several to people in need; this is very exciting to realize God can use me for something! I just get more hankies and wait for the next assignment! I love to buy the CD's of past teachings and listen to them over and over again. We do not get to come to the service as much as I would like, since we live in the Ocala area. It takes about 1-1/2 to 2 hours to get to the church in Jacksonville, so for the Thursday evening service, we have to leave Ocala by 4:30, then we get home after 1:00. If I had my choice, I would not walk out of the service until the last person had been prayed for; who knows what time I would finally get home! But there is a lot to learn as Ricky prays for other people, he is teaching even during that time, and sometimes will stop and give a word for the "church". The prayers and words from God have given me hope and encouragement. One time I was delivered from something that caused me a lot of pain in my upper back. A few days after prayer, I realized it was entirely gone! Praise God for his abundant love and mercy!
I am tired of churches that have no "meat". I do not have the patience to go to a service just to say I went to church, then go home feeling flat or empty or dissappointed. I'd better get something out of it, or I am waisting my time. There is "meat" at TLM, and God's almighty power and abundant love is demonstrated. Yes, I will make a 5 hour drive for this! This is not the Sunday morning "Social Club"!
I was going to write more, but its already too long......Miss Dot, you can edit this in any way you wish for the news letter (or anything else).

Within the last two weeks, between December 2007 and January 2008, my family received a great healing, which in itself must be a miracle. A member of my family, a child, was suffering from Leukemia. I had Dr. Ricky Roberts pray over a handkerchief, and we immediately sent it to where my family live. They placed it upon the child, and within days the leukemia disappeared. The doctors are dumpfounded to say the least. Praise God.

In 2007, I was diagnosed with prostate cancer. According to the Doctors, the only hope was surgery or radiation. I was prayed for by Dr. Ricky Roberts and his staff and I was instantensously healed. There is no more prostrate cancer.

On January 13th, 2008, I was greatly suffering from kidney stones. I knew that I would have to go to the doctor if God did not move. I knew also that I would probably go into surgery. I went to the service held in Douglas Ga. The power of God came upon me and I received total and complete recovery from my kindney stones. In other words, the stones disappeared and my pain also went away. Thank God.

I was unable to conceive and have a child. I went to the services again and again, crying to God to have a child. God moved and I was able to have the child, a boy, that the doctors said could not be.

At a Thursday night prayer services Pastor Ricky said he saw the faces of TLM church members whose family members had the Spirit of Death over them. When I went for prayer I asked Ricky if he saw my face and he said, yes. I have five brothers, a son and a husband. I told my son and husband what Ricky saw and felt compelled to tell my brother Charlie. Charlie listened to what was said, he went to church with me two weeks later on Thursday night, went up for prayer because he has “feet problems”. The Holy Spirit kept Charlie up for prayers for a very long time, others sat down after prayer but Charlie just stood there, for maybe an hour! Two weeks later Charlie called and said, “I beleive it was me who had the Spirit of Death”. Charlie was in an accident yesterday in a store while shopping for floor tile. He has a concussion and cut his knee so deep they could hardly stop the bleeding. Praise the Lord he did not die.
Now Charlie is asking me to send the article about the young man in Iraq who was miraculously healed after prayer from TLM this past month. The Lord gives wake-up calls, he may call several times, and he may call once. Answer when he calls, recognize it is HIM calling!
