Yesterday, I had the great privilege of hearing more encouraging news straight from Tommy's mouth! After weeks of not being able to take even one bite, Tommy is now able to eat real food with few restrictions! Tommy reported that this advancement has given him much more energy and made him feel considerably better. There also seems to be hopeful signs in regard to Tommy's breathing. Tommy feels encouraged by his progress with the breathing exercises and is scheduled for diaphragm testing soon. And, Tommy's doctor has said he will be able to start more intense therapy next week, beginning with being placed upright in a wheelchair. Up until now, Tommy has been strictly in bed so this is an amazing progression. It will be somewhat difficult as the body and its functions have to adjust to being upright. There has been significant improvement on the wound on Tommy's back allowing for the move to an upright position. In our conversation, Tommy and Robyn again wished to wholeheartedly thank everyone for their prayers, cards and support! Praise God because He is simply good, loving and The Great Physician! Please pray for continued healing of Tommy's wound and for healing and strength of Tommy's diaphragm. Also pray for God's hand to guide the upcoming therapy. Lastly, please keep the staff at Craig in your prayers. -- "But I am trusting you, O Lord, saying, you are my God! My future is in your hands." Psalm 31:14-15

  1. PRAISE GOD,TOMMY! THIS IS GREAT NEWS!! My name is Jan, and I'm Brian's, aunt. I think for sure that we've met. Anyway, I've been lifting you, up since the accident, speaking words of faith out for you, Tommy. Jesus is your Healer, your Deliverer and your Redeemer, and He paid the price for your deliverance from all bondage, and by His stripes,you were, healed, in Jesus Name! I lift you, up now, Tommy & I want you or your wife, someone, to read my prayer outloud over and over,and to speak to your body, what you're wanting it, to do, in Jesus Name & when I've finished, I want you to activate your faith, in agreement with me, and confess outloud, that you believe you receive your healing,in Jesus Name. Ok, man~I've prayed for folks all over the world & seen the miracle working power of God manifest in people's lives. I've seen cancer healed, time & again, the blind see, the lame walk, the deaf hear, paralysis healed, people wake from coma, and on and on, and I know in whom I have believed, Tommy. Last week, I prayed for a friends, daughter in California. She'd just been taken to emergency with spinal miningitis. The next day, the power of God had manifest, and she had been healed, completely! Here goes, now~ And I praise Your Name, forever and a day, and I live for You, into eternity....and I praise Your Name forever and a day; and I live what I sing, what I say, what I'm learning everyday. I praise You, Lord, and I thank You, Father, that there is no time nor distance in the Spirit of God, that nothing is serious in light of the Spirit of God, that when two or more agree as touching any one thing, as I'm doing with Tommy and his family, You said Father, that You'd be in our midst, that You'd be faithful to perform that which we ask. And in the Name of Jesus, I command the healing virtue of God, to flow in throughout and all about your body, Tommy, from the crown of your head to the souls of your feet. I rebuke all manner of sickness and disease that would come against you, and bind it, and I bind all paralysis within your body from the crown of your head to the souls of your feet, because whatever we bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and what ever we loose on earth, shall be loosed in heaven, in Jesus Name. I thank You, Father, for the aids You've given Tommy, but You're his healer, his deliverer and his redeemer, his peace, the 4th man in the fiery furnances of his life, you're his waymaker, Jesus, his Rose of Sharon, the Lily of the Valley, and Jesus, I give You all the glory and all the honour and all the praise, for Your faithfulness to Your Word, in his life, that You're showing Yourself strong in his, behalf; restoring to him all thats been taken, away, restoring to him, the Joy of Your Salvation,in Jesus Name. Ministering Angels, Holy Spirit, I command You to go to Tommy and to minister to him continually, all that he needs, spirit, soul and body, physically, financially and emotionally; restore to him, the joy of Your Salvation, renew within him, a right spirit, in Jesus Name. Minister to him throughout the day and throughout the night watches; healing, health, wholeness and complete restoration; restoration and strength to his lungs, in Jesus Name. And I thank You, Father, for Tommy's speedy quick recovery, and I rebuke all doubt and unbelief spoken to him, spoken over him, by anyone, and I speak life, not death; abundance not lack; peace, not confusion; and I plead the Blood of Jesus and the 91st Psalm over you to protect you from all harm, and I thank You, Father, that Tommy will live long, he will live strong, and he will live, until he's satisfied, in Jesus Name. I release The Fullness of the Blessing Without Measure, into your life, Tommy; in Abundance, to the Full, until it Overflows, in the year of God's Glory, In Jesus Name!

  2. Tommy & Robin,

    My wonderful prayer circle has been praying for you and your family since the day I heard of your accident. We are all going to attend the Dallas event. God is so wonderful. Who knows what this lesson or lessons we all will learn because of this horrible accident. BUT I KNOW that I lessons have been learned. My lesson has been that when someone like you gives love unconditionally, love comes back to you 100X. I love and miss you both! We will not stop praying!
