The Shift
At the age of 14, Dr. Rafael Yeshaya was not a christian and was dying with a rare disease in his left lung. He knew nothing about divine healing, the baptism of the Holy Spirit, or the power of prayer. As his body was burning with fever, his mother, who had just recently come back to God and the church, took him to a Tuesday night prayer meeting to receive the laying on of hands from a Baptist pastor baptized in the Holy Ghost.
While receiving prayer, Rafael felt a combination of sensations: heat, tingling, and an electrical shock running through his back, arms, stomach, and throat. He began to sweat, and at the end of the prayer he was astonished: “The thing lifted, and I feel no pain or fever.” His mother took him to the doctor, but the dark fog that had covered his entire left lung had completely vanished. The doctor assumed she had taken him to another specialist. That same day, at the age of 14, hidden and alone in the poor house where his grandmother lived, Rafael prayed and gave his life to Christ.
