TESTIMONY ONE – DELIVERED FROM THE HANDS OF DEATH
On the 19th of July 2007 my wife lost her father, so we went to the village. I left her in the village 26th July 2007, she later came back to Benin on Saturday 28th July 2007. On Monday 30th July 2007 I noticed a sudden change in her body. I also noticed that she was not feeding well, she only said she had headache on Thursday 26th July, of that same week as she was sweeping, she experienced a sharp pain on her head. She stopped sweeping and she held her head and managed to enter the room. When she got into the room, something strange happened. Her right eye was close and she could not open it again. From that moment my house was engulfed with sorrow, I rushed her to the hospital; the doctor said her blood pressure was high so it affected her eye. They carried out several test and she was discharged. When we got home in the evening, she collapsed and fainted. I rushed her to the hospital again and we were in the hospital for one week. An ophthalmologist came to check her eye and we were referred to UCH Ibadan, we were told she is in a critical condition that if we didn’t act fast, that we might loose her.
I took the reference letter to my General Overseer’s wife Rev (Mrs.) Florence Chigbundu, she prayed and I didn’t go to Ibadan.
I brought my wife home and invited some Pastors from Voice of Freedom Ministries, and we started praying for her healing. That same night something strange happened she collapsed and fainted again I rushed her to the hospital again, and she was admitted for another one week. We were later referred to go and do a particular test (CTS Scan) in UBTH, and the cost of that test was N43,000 I rushed her to UBTH, when we got there they said it was an emergency, they did the test that same night, and I was waiting for the result, during the process of waiting for the result, they said the Computer System in the hospital has collapse that I should go and look for someone that has a Laptop so they can give me the result of the test. On my way to look for someone that has a Laptop, my wife called me and said I should come and carry her away from that hospital and bring her home. When the result of the test finally came out, they said there was nothing wrong with her.
This time I discharged her and brought her to the Church and we went into Deliverance Ministration for her that lasted for about one week. I took her back home and she was okay. But two days later, she slumped and fainted I rushed her back to the church, when we got to the church her other eye got blind I went to see the doctor that said earlier on that the ailment had affected the second eye. For three months, my wife remains blind. People were coming to give me counsel that I should seek other sources of treatment for my wife but I refused.
However, because of intense pressures, my wife followed a neighbour to see a so-called prophet, but I disagreed with what the prophet said and I took her back to Voice of Freedom and continued in prayers and deliverance. Our Daddy, Rev Dr Abraham Chigbundu spoke a word into her life during one of the services. In the process her two eyes opened and she could see again and she went back to her normal duties. I want to use this medium to appeal to all readers of this testimony that they should put their total trust in God and that the Living God is here in Voice of Freedom Ministries.
PRAISE GOD!

TESTIMONY TWO – WHAT A MIGHTY GOD!
My husband and I were desirous of a baby girl, after having 2 boys and we consciously believed God for it. I got pregnant in the month of April, 2007 and lost the pregnancy on the 29th of May, 2007, which also is my birthday.
Inspite of my prayers, I was questioning and reminding God that this was not what He promised me. Despite what I was seeing I still had hope. I went to the Hospital where it was confirmed that I have truly lost the pregnancy. I bled for the next 3months. I became very sick and had high blood pressure. I was placed on medication which almost was leading to paralysis. Thanks to God when I went to our Daddy, Rev (Dr) Abraham Chigbundu, he ministered to me and I became well.
After this, I made up my mind to go back to God again, still believing Him for a baby girl, knowing fully well He is the God of second chance. At this point, friends and relations were asking me to put having another baby on hold, because of what I experienced before. But I have always believed in Mathew 11:12a “the violent taketh it by force”.
I got pregnant again in the month of September 2007; little did I know that the devil had a hidden agenda. Till the fourth month of the pregnancy, I was bleeding every day, every one around me thought I will lose the baby. During this period I was prayed for by Daddy and I also got plenty of encouragement from my husband.
At the 7th month I was experiencing a fluctuating B.P (Blood Pressure) and had to be placed on medication. A doctor advises that I should be induced at the 8th month, so as to deliver the baby. At this time, something funny happened, I went into labour without realizing it that I was in labour. Glory be to God, I had a successful delivery of a baby girl, that my husband and I had believed God for.
After delivery, something happened in the labour room, immediately I had my baby, bleeding started. I had my baby at 3:15pm, with no tear or complications. However, bleeding and vomiting started immediately till about 10.30pm. The doctors did all they could but all to no avail at this time I could hardly see, it was as if I was going to die.
I cried out to God to save me, I asked him to open the book of records and check my sacrificies and I equally remembered Daddy’s book “Altar vs Altars”, because I felt at that moment that an Altar was siphoning my blood. Immediately I finished the prayers, the bleeding stopped. That was when I was rolled out of the labour room with my baby.
Glory be to the Lord God Almighty, my baby and I are doing well today.
