 Diane
Bergt
For over six months, Diane Bergt had a migraine
headache. Sometimes she could function, but at
other times it was debilitating. She struggled
to work and care for her family, attend church
and help lead a ladies small group. It was
stealing her joy and her life.
On Sunday, May 11, Diane Bergt was in Sunday
morning service, still enduring the headache,
but faithful to attend church anyway.
During prayer time, God told Pastor Dan about a
woman who was in the service suffering with a
headache. Pastor Dan shared God’s revelation,
rebuked the headache, telling it to ‘go away
right now,’ and asked God to heal the woman.
When Diane heard Pastor Dan pray, she thought,
surely this isn’t for me; I’m sure someone else
in the service has a headache. She also
thought, someone must’ve told him about my
headache and that’s why he prayed that way.
But for some reason, she couldn’t just let it go
– maybe the prayer was for her. Another thought
assailed her, this headache is not going to
just go away after six months. But the
thought persisted that she could be healed by
God. Her small group had been praying for her,
too. Faith grew in her heart and mind. She
realized that even if someone else did have a
headache or even if someone had told Pastor Dan
about her headache, she still wanted to be free
from it. She said to herself, “No! I want
that healing just the same as anybody else.”
Within five minutes, the headache was gone.
James 4:7 says “Submit yourselves, then, to God.
Resist the devil and he will flee from you. Come
near to God and He will come near to you.” Diane
submitted to God when she refused to believe the
doubts that came into her mind. She chose to
believe God could and wanted to heal her. She is
healed! Jesus still does miracles today!
At Faith Assembly of Lacey, we celebrate the
work that God is doing in the lives of the
people of our church.
