“For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them” (Ephesians 2:10).
G
od has a purpose for your life; a destiny that He created you to fulill, and one of the greatest blessings you could ever experience in life is to discover God’s purpose for your life and fulill it. Some people aren’t aware of this and, as a result, they live empty lives. Some others don’t believe that God could have a plan for them, but why wouldn’t He? He created you!
Jesus was on earth for a speciic purpose and He was clear about it. He airmed it in John 10:10, “The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.” He knew He didn’t just come to the world to look around and die; His whole life was in pursuit of a purpose–to save and give life to all men. He lived and fulilled the will of the Father. In a prophetic reference to Jesus, Hebrews 10:7 states: “…Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me,) to do thy will, O God.” A lot of people live very dull and uninspiring lives. They drift along in life, living without any sense of purpose. You were born for a purpose, and it’s important to discover your purpose in life. Like Jesus, you were born for a purpose. Perhaps you’re wondering, “But how do I know the will of the Father? How do I know His purpose for my life?” To ind the answers to these questions, you’ll irst have to understand what the word ‘purpose’ means. Purpose is an idea or aim kept in the mind as the goal towards which one’s eforts are directed. It’s a deinite 02 | The Healing School Magazine
intention; the object or reason for which something exists or is done. If you’re born again, the will of the Father and His plan for your life shouldn’t be a mystery to you. In John 20:21, the Lord said, “Peace be unto you: as my Father hath sent me, even so send I you.” Thus, this is now your purpose; you’ve been sent to reach all men with the Gospel of life. The day you gave your heart to Christ, He gave you His kind of thinking and made you a savior, just like Him. Moreover, the will, nature, and purpose of God are revealed in His Word. Daily, He gives us the Word to guide our thinking, planning and actions. Also, you can boldly ask Him, and He’ll tell you, for He is the Master Communicator. He can talk to you about His purpose for your life in a language that you’ll understand, and lead you from your spirit into the life He’s planned for you to live. As you meditate on those words, do those things that please Him and stay in fellowship with the Holy Spirit, God’s plan for your life becomes clear to you. So, let your whole life be in pursuit of this purpose; be passionate about the enthronement of God’s Kingdom in the hearts of men, and its expansion to the ends of the earth. That way, your life will take on a whole new meaning. Yield yourself to Him today and let the divine vision to bring Him glory and express His righteousness be your passion, pursuit, and purpose every day, and you’ll experience true joy and in life.
If you want to make Jesus Christ the Lord of your life, then say this prayer, believing with all your heart: “O Lord God, I come to You in the Name of Jesus. I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of the Living God. I believe that God raised Him from the dead and I confess with my mouth that Jesus Christ is the Lord of my life from today. I receive by faith, remission of sins for my soul. Right now, in the Name of Jesus Christ, I receive eternal life into my spirit. I am born again!” If you’ve just said that prayer, please send an email to feedback@enterthehealingschool.org. God bless you.

an you imagine how bad things would have to get before you wish your child hadn’t been born? This was the state in which Precious Khumalo found herself. Her daughter, Lindo Chukwukere, was an unhappy child. By the time she was nine months old, she had been crying almost non-stop for ive months. Sufering from hydrocephalus, Lindo’s head was twice as big as it should have been because luids were building up in her head. This afected her growth and development, and Precious was told that her daughter would most likely never walk.
Having a child who needed constant attention and medical care afected Precious’ life in many ways. She tried all she could to help her child, but to no avail; she lived in self-pity and depression, blaming herself for her child’s condition. When Precious heard about the Healing School, it was hope and light in the dark, desperate place that she found herself. She brought Lindo to the Healing School with a deep desire that she would be healed by the power of God. Precious tells her story: “Lindo was born normal, but when she was four months old, she started crying nonstop. I noticed that her head was not normal, it looked like it was growing bigger. This went on for a while, so I took her to the clinic; after taking a look at her, the doctor came the following day to say that they found out that the problem was caused by water in her head. The water needed to be drained out, so we were referred to a bigger hospital for the operation. Before the crying started, and before the operation, Lindo had 06 | The Healing School Magazine
started learning to sit and she could respond to sound. She was nine months old by that time, which meant should have been able to sit and hold on to stuf. And when you give her noisy or squeaky toys, she’s supposed to give you attention. But because of this condition, she couldn’t turn her neck or do anything. All she did was cry. “After the operation, the doctor who did the operation told me that it went well, but that he couldn’t promise anything. He said I should expect that my daughter wasn’t going to walk because the water damaged her spinal cord. When I heard that, I started crying right there in the hospital. I asked God why He would do this to my daughter at this age. I was just so sad. “I was a single mother, and I had lost my job because I had to stay at home and take care of my daughter. What was I going to do with this child? I wondered why God gave me this child and I blamed myself for having her. I already had a son,
so I thought it would have been better not to have had this child than for her to be sufering like this. I cried a lot when I thought about the situation. I cried every time I looked at my daughter; she never moved from whatever position I put her, she couldn’t do anything on her own. When she was hungry, she couldn’t even take the bottle I would put next to her. She was like this for more than two years.” This was a dire situation indeed for Precious and little Lindo, but the time of misery and pain would soon come to an end. One day, Precious’s neighbor told her about the Healing School, and she believed that it would be the end to all her problems. She says, “When I got to the Healing School, I saw many people there with diferent cases that had been healed. Their testimonies gave me faith, I saw that my problem was littler than others’. I became very happy and excited because I was ready for the man of God, Pastor Chris, to come. “When he entered the auditorium, everybody was jumping and rejoicing as the man of God prayed for other people. I felt joy in my heart that my Lindo was going to walk, despite all the reports we had gotten. The man of God arrived in front of me, and I was already rejoicing so much that I didn’t know when I fell down. When I got up, someone handed my daughter to me and I could feel the anointing in her. I knew she was healed!” Now, Lindo is an epitome of the miraculous and her story bears testament to the great grace of God and His unfailing love. Now six years old, Lindo is alive and well, completely healed, walking on her own, super intelligent, and free to have a normal childhood. She is now a source of joy and wonder to all who know her. A very happy Precious describes life since that day: “After the Healing School, when we got back home, a big miracle happened to my daughter. One day, I was putting my washing outside when I heard her crying. I got inside and found her on the loor; I was bugged as to how she got there because she never moved. I put her back on the bed, on the far side of the wall, and she came to me on her own. She wasn’t crying anymore.
She started sitting on her own, then she started to stand. About three months after the Healing School, my daughter started walking! “When I went back with Lindo to the hospital for a checkup, they had expected to see me carrying her in as usual. But this time, I was holding her by the hand. The doctor didn’t look at her because he thought she was a diferent child. He asked after Lindo, and then I pointed to her. He looked closely then, but couldn’t believe his eyes still. He said, “Lindo can’t be walking! It’s going to take a long time for her to walk, if she will even walk at all.” I was just laughing, and then Lindo called out to the doctor by herself. The doctor was surprised, then he checked her and couldn’t ind water building up anywhere. He asked me where I was coming from, and I told him the story of how this miracle came into my life. “I could work again because my daughter had been healed, and I found a new job that was better than the one I had lost. Now, this is three years after my daughter came to the Healing School; no sickness whatsoever, she only goes to the clinic for scheduled checkups, not for treatments. My daughter never gets sick anymore. She can do everything children her age can do. She is very clever and has learnt to speak several South African languages. Lindo is a happy child now, she plays with other kids. She doesn’t even want to be carried anymore; she just loves to walk, even if it’s long distance. “To the partners of the Healing School, I thank you for all your work because you are the ones bearing all the responsibility for us to come to the Healing School free, without paying a cent. Thank you, man of God, for allowing God to use you; may you continue to do that, in Jesus name. “Most of all, I say ‘thank you, Jesus’ because my daughter is walking. This is a big miracle for me, and I’ve told myself that, for the rest of my life, I will serve God. With Him, nothing is impossible.” Visit www.enterthehealingschool.org to register for the upcoming 2019 Healing School Autumn Session. The Healing School Magazine | 07

mongst other functions, your back provides support, movement and lexibility for the body. The back is a large structure descending from the back of the neck to the top of the buttocks. It’s easy to strain your back because it does so much for you, and a little pain in the back can cause a lot of discomfort. That makes it imperative for you to always take care of your back. Here are a few tips to help.
A 1.
Lift Correctly: When lifting objects, (a) eyeweigh the object; get help if it is too heavy, (b) stand close to the object and bend from your knees–not the waist, (c) gently turn around with the load, rather than twist, as you lift, and (d) stand upright holding the object.
2.
Sleep Right: Reduce pressure on your back by sleeping on your side, not on your stomach or back. Invest in a supportive mattress and pillows, especially ones that promote correct neck and back alignment.
3.
Stretch Out: Stretch to keep back and neck muscles active and lexible, and also reduce the risk of back injuries.
4.
Exercise: Walking, biking, swimming, and several gym routines help to avert back pains, etc. The best back exercise routines should combine stretching, strengthening and aerobics.
5.
Work Smart: Keep a healthy, ergonomically sound work space. Set up work tools and equipment to meet your functionality. Invest in a work-chair that supports your lower back. Take short breaks often so that you can stand and stretch, as staying in one position for a
10 | The Healing School Magazine
protracted period stifens back muscles. 6.
Maintain a Healthy Weight: Being overweight or obese may cause strain on the back. So, this is one more health reason to consciously watch lifestyle choices that impact your weight.
7.
Stay Hydrated: Drinking a lot of water aids tissue elasticity and lexibility, while dehydration causes the spinal disc to shrink, and leads to backache and other conditions.
8.
Pay Attention: Never play down on back pain, it tends to worsen over time if ignored. Don’t exert too much pressure on your back and don’t self-medicate to relieve symptoms.
9.
Maintain the Correct Posture Always: While walking, maintain an upright stance. Use a good chair to support your back and lower spine when seated, and keep mobile devices at eye level to reduce neck and back stress.
10. Be Cautious: Avoid twisting your torso when mopping or vacuuming. Sit on a small stool or kneel while cleaning lower bathroom ittings. Take frequent breaks when bending for a task.
