In December 2004, it was the 24th day during my 26-day fasting. I became more earnest to know God on
that day. I cried and said in prayer, "Lord! I want to know You. Let me know You more and more, please!"
Around 7 p.m., I was about to leave home to preach the message in a meeting. Just right then, I heard
the Holy Spirit's voice. It was such a strong urging. He told me, "Turn on the TV!" In fact, I had not
watched TV at all around the time because I was fasting and preparing for the sermon. But I obeyed and
turned the TV on. On the screen appeared a pastor leading a crusade. It was Dr. Jaerock Lee who was
leading Peru Healing Crusade 2004. I was so amazed by a great number of people in attendance. Then, I
left home.
After I walked for a while, I heard the Spirit's voice again from my heart. He said, "The pastor you saw
on TV will let you know Me in detail. You said to Me you wanted to know Me. It is My answer to your
prayer."
Afterwards, I visited the website of Manmin Central Church (www.manmin.org) and started to listen to
Rev. Dr. Jaerock Lee's sermons in Spanish. I felt so grateful to realize that my prayer and fasting for 26
days were answered through him.
His spiritual messages deeply touch my heart. I cannot express the grace with mere words. He explains
and shows us what a true life as a believer is like, how we can lead a sanctified life, and how we
should devote ourselves to the Lord. His messages have authority strong enough to renew our lives and
lead us in better lives. They make us be more dedicated to the Lord's ministry and love God more.
In those days, I had often suffered from enteric infection and taken medical treatments. But after I listened
to Dr. Lee's messages, I realized that I had not believed healing works and miracles of God although I
had preached about them. I repented and made up my mind not to go to hospital and not to take
medicine. And I was completely healed of it and have been very healthy.
I thank Dr. Lee for teaching me how I should live as a pastor. I believe that he has been and will guide
not only Manmin members but also people in the world to sanctification and New Jerusalem, the most
beautiful place in heaven through his ministry transcending denominations. It is a true blessing to meet
Dr. Lee who is a true servant of God.
