God's healing powers and hand of protection.
One Wednesday night, Datuk Chua gave his testimony during a Jesus Heals Rally held at a church. Having been missing from the political scene since he was
not re-elected into the cabinet due to political reshuffling in the last election, we hardly heard or read of news about Datuk Chua on television or in
the newspaper. This testimony would be one of how he had met God. Datuk Chua's mouth was full of praises to God for his life, his family, his career etc.
There was no anger or bitterness for his downfall in politics. Instead, he praised the Lord for taking him out of politics so that he could do the Lord's
work. Beginning his testimony from December 2003, Datuk Chua shared so intensely about the time when an evil spirit had taken over him one afternoon when
he was reading his cabinet papers. He shared how he struggled with the demon inside him and was finally delivered from it with much prayer by Pastor Jean
Lim and her team. Praise the Lord!
He then went on to share about his friend who was involved in a very serious accident and how his friend was miraculously healed. According to Datuk Chua,
his friend was so seriously injured that doctors told him, even if his friend was to wake up, he would be brain dead. However, Datuk Chua did not give
up hope and continuously prayed for his friend. One day when he was in the hospital praying for his friend again, his friend suddenly half opened his eyes,
and muttered his first words - Jesus! From then on, God continued his healing powers on Datuk Chua's friend. But the most amazing testimony was about the
recent kidnap of his son, Damien, which was recently reported in the newspaper on :

According Datuk Chua, Damien told him that his kidnapping ordeal was only for a mere 12 minutes from 4.18pm to 4.20pm, and not 30 minutes which was reported
in the newspapers. "My son at the Projet petrol station to pump petrol - true. Two man approached Damien with parang (Malay word for a big knife used
for chopping plants) also true and the parang was those like they used in kung fu fighting with sharp jagged edge. The kidnappers driving off the car from
Projet and heading toward Jalan Duta was also true." Then he said something surprising, "But it was not a policeman who asked the kidnapper to pull over.
The newspaper reported that Projet workers had called the police, but I later checked with the manager of the Projet station, and he said upon investigation,
they had no records of their staff calling the police. So, the Projet station staff was not even aware of what was going on and no one actually knew what
had happened.”

Datuk Chua went on to say that Damien had told him when the car was along Jalan Duta, a hand opened the car door and a booming voice demanded that the robbers,
"Keluar sekarang!" (Come out immediately). Freaked out and trembling with fear, the kidnapper then drove as fast as he could, checking the rear mirror
the whole time, as if someone was pursuing him. That was when he lost control of the car and deliberately crashed it on Damien's side (left side of the
car). The car was badly smashed up but Damien miraculously walked out of it without a scratch (besides the slash wound he got from the kidnappers). What
an awesome testimony of God's protection and care! But whose hand was it that opened the door?
"During the police interrogation, the kidnappers said it was a man all dressed in white," said Datuk Chua. He went on to say that the police also told
him there was no police on duty along or near Jalan Duta at that time. "Damien had told me all the while the kidnappers were in his car, he kept praying
in tongues. The kidnappers did not stop him and allowed him to continue praying. He said he prayed, 'Jesus, You are the only One who knows what I'm going
through and can help. Please help me.' Indeed only Jesus knows and only He could help Damien," said Datuk Chua as he ended his testimony.
Here is a man who had what everyone wanted - power. Yet, when God took it away, he still testified of God's goodness and continue to praise God.
I can't see it. Doesn't look remotely real. Plus, God doesn't listen to tongues, but believe what you want.
What do you mean God doesn't listen to tongues? Only people that don't speak or pray in tongues say that. But I don't discount tongue I jsut don't do it myself. I've never felt led to do so. But my uncle does and it's for real and God does listen. Just wonder where you get what you say from. I'll come back and givey ou scriptures of where the bible says to pray in tongues.
Well, prove me wrong then, or try... What bible do you read, New King James or king James?
