Deaconess Ok-kyung Kim | 60, Changwon City, Gyeongnam Province

I grew up in a poor family environment and it caused me to suffer from anxiety disorder and depression for over 30 years. The symptoms have gotten worse over the past a few years.
As soon as I woke up in the morning, I was afraid that something offensive might happen to me and I get sick. I felt anxious and uneasy while riding in a car or in whatever I did. I thought, ‘Am I really a believer in Jesus?’ and it was so painful that I even wanted to die.
In July of 2024, my suffering was at the utmost degree. In reliance on God, I began praying to receive healing with a determination and faith. I stayed tuned on GCN TV to watch sermons, praises, and healing testimonies, and read the Bible attentively. I worshiped God and sang hymns in spirit and truth and prayed earnestly.
I thought over how to please God, and cleaned the restrooms in the church before the Friday all-night service, helped prepare Sunday lunch, and did dishwashing after lunch. I also attended a 21-day Vowed Daniel Prayer Meeting in preparation of a Divine Healing Meeting that would be held in September, and realized how evil it was to hate others, and tearfully repented of it.
On Sunday, September 15, Senior Pastor Soojin Lee preached a sermon entitled ‘Reconciliation’ celebrating Chuseok, a Korean traditional holiday. I was greatly moved at her message, and I was able to be at peace with family members and enjoy a happy holiday.
The next morning, my anxiety symptom improved. As time went by, my mind came to be at peace and indescribable joy, gratitude, and happiness flooded into my heart. When I attended the Divine Healing Meeting on September 27, the anxiety disorder and depression that had inflicted me for over 30 years were completely gone. Hallelujah!
I give all thanks and glory to the loving God who led me out of darkness into the path of light and the warmth of the Lord.
