Near death – Linda’s testimony

Hi Everyone,
Thank you for your prayers!
Linda was released to go home from the Hospital Sunday at 5pm.
She is still disoriented, but getting better.

On Thursday morning I found her in her recliner, pushed back and unresponsive. All I could hear was a faint gurgling sound. I tried to revive her but there was no response. Once she opened her eyes and just looked lifeless.

I called 911 and they told me to get her to the floor and do CPR. When I did she gasped and started breathing. When the medics came the looked in her eyes but her eyes had rolled back out of view, they got her to the Emergency Van and had to do CPR again, this time they put breathing tubes down her throat and got her to the hospital. They did every test they could, checking her Brain, Heart, Blood, Spinal Fluid etc. They said they have no idea what happened. 2 different Neurologists said it was not a stroke and they did not think it was a seizure. One said it’s almost like she was in a deep, deep sleep. Saturday morning they decided to see if she could breathe on her own. After an hour long test of vitals, oxygenation of her blood etc. they removed the tubes. It wasn’t until Sunday that she really started to recover her faculties. She has a lot of Neck pain and terrible headaches still (perhaps from the spinal).

This was a definite attack, as she was waking up, she was whispering faintly that she heard “people” talking that said: “This serves you right” “ and also “Your Husband deserve this”.
She also said “I died, they tried to kill me, but I am back!”

This morning (Monday) she was in prayer when the Lord told her that there were two “devils” that have been attacking her since childhood, one looks like a spider and one like a serpent and that she had to break them off of her. She did so and feels like they left. I am not taking any chances, these ones are dangerous, we will continue to intercede – we cannot let our guard down when we enter into war against strongholds. We are indeed in a major spiritual battle.

The Lord also told Linda this morning during prayer to study the life of Samuel and that she needs to get low (pray hard and draw closer). Linda believes she was dying but that the intercession that went out on her behalf brought her back. God told her: “For I have regarded My people, because their cry has come to Me.” (1 Sam. 9:16b)

God told her THIS INTERCESSION is what turned the tide of the battle. Don’t ever doubt the power of Intercession!!!

God Bless You,
Bob Matthews
