________________ BROTHER MANDUS 87 covenant of prayer with me so we could behold the perfection of Christ shining in this young man in a continuous sequence. She agreed to do this and we proceeded accordingly. In the very first week there was no more blood in his sputum. Very shortly he put on several pounds in weight. In three months time he was completely healed of the disease. He still did not know that anyone was in prayer for him, and no one dared to mention it. I suggested to this lady that something very wonderful had certainly been happening and that we had better just keep up a continuance of our recognition that God's love was shining upon him, like sunshine, in a constant stream of blessing. Week by week she would write to me and tell me of keeping her covenant but reporting no more change whatsoever. Another three months went by. Then one day she wrote to say that she was going to marry John. I then thought that this should certainly quicken many things in their lives and indeed gave thanks to the father that wonderful things were certainly happening in those two people. After another three months she reported no change whatsoever in the spiritual outlook. Then, one day about nine and a half months after the beginning of our intercessions, she told me how John had suddenly started talking about the miracles of Jesus Christ. She was astonished. Then she told him what had happened, how she had asked the Sanctuary to join in prayer for him, and how he had gotten well. He turned to her and said with surprise, “Well, what else do you expect when you pray!” It seemed as though all the atheism, the uncertainty, had just automatically disappeared. It was as though after all those months the healing love of God just shone through in his consciousness.
