DEDICATION

This book is dedicated to my grandchildren, whom I love very much. While my pilgrimage through this land of the enemy is coming to a close, theirs is just beginning. My concern for their well-being in this present life, and through the eternal ages, weighs heavily upon my heart. Therefore, I have recorded in this volume some of the many outworkings of God's Holy Spirit in my behalf during the past sixty-plus years of my life, in the hope that here they will find encouragement in the Lord and the inspiration that will help them develop a living faitha faith that will increase their spiritual strength and develop an unfaltering trust in our heavenly Father, and in the power of His Holy Spirit.

Most of the names in this book have been changed to protect the privacy of those involved in the events depicted.

CHAPTER

This Is the House of Death

On December 1 , 1984, I was on the verge of dying in the intensive care unit of the Greater Niagara General Hospital in Niagara Falls, Ontario. I had congestive heart failure and atrial fibrillation that the physicians could not reverse. As the cardiologist stated a few days later, if my wife had taken 20 minutes longer in getting me to the hospital, I would have been dead before arrival.

It came upon me unexpectedly. My wife, Hilda, and I were visiting her mother for the weekend. Our trip from central New York had been pleasant, and we had had an enjoyable evening with Mother. Retiring at 10:00 p.m., I felt unusually tired and slept comfortably till about 3:00 a.m., when I awoke with sweat pouring down my face. Although I realized that I was having some discomfort in breathing, I attributed it to the bedroom being overheated.

When I opened the window about two inches, the cool winter air immediately improved my condition. However, I could not get back to sleep. I kept tossing in bed, and my breathing problem returned after a while.

I kept opening the window wider as breathing became more difficult, till by 7:00 a.m. I had it completely up.

After taking a shower, I became extremely tired and realized that something was definitely wrong with me. It took all the strength I could muster just to shave. Walking to the car required as much effort as if I were climbing a hill.

In the emergency room the staff quickly rigged me up with an oxygen mask, intravenous tubing dripping medication into my system, and a diagnostic monitor to check the activities of my heart. A cardiologist with the assistance of several nurses did everything that they could to keep me alive.

A short while later they placed me in the intensive care unit which was already filled to capacity. Because all the glassed-in chambers were occupied, they assigned me a bed in the open area close to the nurses' station.

I had, so to speak, a foot already in the grave, as my breathing had grown so shallow that I could hardly get any oxygen into my lungs. I now believed that I was going to die, and my conviction deepened when someone asked if I would like to have a minister come and see me. In my feeble condition I stated that I felt too sick to have anyone visit, except my wife, who was allowed to see me for I0 minutes every two hours. Besides, for almost 40 years I had made it a daily practice to seek out God and prepare myself to die.

Nearly four decades before, I had had the unique experience of having demonic spirits declare that I would go to an early grave because I had decided to accept Christ jesus as my Lord and Saviour and to observe the biblical Sabbath. (See my previous book, A Trip Into the Supernatural |Review and Herald, I982|, where I recount my unusual story.)

While I realized that my condition was critical, I was also aware that a number of other people in the ward were struggling to hold on to life. "This is the house of death," I told myself.

The Presence of God

Thirty-six hours passed, and I was still alive and now able to breathe without having the oxygen mask on all the time. My thoughts ascended to God in a melody of praise.

That Sunday evening the intensive care unit was in a state of great urgency, and the head nurse called for additional help to meet the situation. To my immediate right an elderly man appeared on the point of death as two nurses struggled to keep him alive. To my left, a man in his 30s, already having had three heart attacks, stated that he was probably living his last days.

Lights flashed at the nurses' station with increasing frequency as the condition of a great number of patients worsened. Because of my close proximity to the station, I could hear comments that indicated that the condition of some patients was deteriorating and becoming desperate. Considering the situation, I recalled something that a leading spiritist had said in I946. He stated that demonic spirits delight in seeing people die, and in times of war they celebrate. Clearly they would be planning such a celebration that very evening with so many patients in the ICU so near death.

Not for myself, but for others, my thoughts ascended to God in prayer. For 39 years I had seen the power of intercessory prayer bring great blessings into the lives of many. One practice that I had formed early in my Christian life was to bring the spiritually sick, those who have had head-on collisions with sin and become spiritual and at times physical wrecks, to what I like to refer to as Christ's intensive care unit. The results had been rewarding, as many times I had seen my prayers answered before my eyes.

As I considered my Lord and Saviour in the Holy of Holies of the heavenly sanctuary ministrating in behalf of fallen humanity (Hebrews 8:I, 2), I found my heart soaring in thanksgiving for all the many blessings He had so compassionately bestowed others in answer to my prayers. And my joy in the Lord was great as I reflected upon God's never failing compassion toward me a most undeserving human being.

Now I asked for the mighty power of the Holy Spirit of God to surround everyone with a spiritual atmosphere of light and peace and to restore them to health if it was His will. As you will see in later chapters, I had learned through personal experience that intercessory prayers are most effective when I have made sure that sin is not separating the subjects of my prayers from God. I began my prayers in that intensive care unit by thanking God for the privilege of asking for His divine help for my fellow patients. Pointing to the infinite price He had paid at Calvary, I asked Him to forgive everyone's sins.

For a long time it has been my conviction that as Christians we ought to do for others what they cannot or are unwilling to do for themselvesto deal with the sin in their lives. Jesus set the example for us. As He died on the cross, He asked the Father to forgive the sins of those who crucified Him (Luke 23:34). I cannot explain what happens when we ask God to forgive the sins of another, but I have seen the transformations that begin taking place in his or her life. God never violates the free will of anyone, but when we pray for someone else, it permits Him to work in lives with a special power. He unshackles the individual from the chains of sin so that he can use his freedom of choice to choose good.

And to encourage my own Christian experience as I lay at the point of death, I asked God to allow me to see His healing touch at work in that ICU. Then I thanked the Great Physician, the Author of our being, for answering my prayers.
