Sis. Tacing Roy, who is fondly called by those who are close to her “Nanay Tacing” or Mommy Tacing, is the beloved mother of Bro. Roden Roy. She had seen the great healing miracle of Dearest LORD in her life when she was dying, and her funeral was all prepared because of an illness in her inner ear that specialists couldn’t cure. She was raised by Loving LORD JESUS CHRIST when she was brought to the worship service of JESUS Miracle Crusade International Ministry. She had no hope, then, being tortured by the pain and discomfort her disease brought. The doctors here and in Canada had given up on her. She travelled there with her husband seeking healing. Her inner ear was rotting, and she was also a victim of witchcraft, which made her days and nights pure torment.
But she was miraculously healed Dearest LORD, and freed from the evil works of witchcraft. She gained a kind of faith so strong that nothing and no one could deter her, no matter the circumstance.
Another Test of Faith
That’s what happened in the late 90s when her beloved son Roden’s appendix ruptured. The doctor was shocked by her decision to bring home her very sick son and just pray for his miraculous healing at home. Bro. Roden needed an emergency surgery to close up his ruptured appendix, but his mother chose to fully trust in GOD’s miracle – without surgery. And so, at home, Nanay Tacing prayed agonizingly and fasted for the healing of her son. Bro. Roden miraculously recovered and was well for a year.
At The Operating Room for Hours
But in 1997, a year after his appendix was ruptured, his stomach bulged until it looked like he was 8 months pregnant. This time, he was brought to the hospital for a checkup. He was immediately brought to the Operating Room for an emergency surgery, to which Nanay Tacing was then powerless to stop. The doctors said it might take three hours. But three hours turned into five, and five into seven. Nanay Tacing resisted the urge to worry and lose faith. She was on her knees begging Dearest GOD to let her son live all the time he was in the operating room.
The Doctors as Witnesses
The procedure ended at 2:30 in the morning. The doctors, though very tired, were so thrilled to talk about the miracle they just witnessed. They said that it was just not possible that a person would live after an untreated ruptured appendix. They were so shocked to see Bro. Roden’s condition: a big clump of rotten flesh, pus, and blood had infected his stomach and intestines. They needed to bring out his intestines and clean them, that’s why it took them seven hours!
They considered it a great miracle that a person lived in that state for a year, calling Bro. Roden is a miracle boy. Doctors from other hospitals came to St. Luke’s Medical Center to interview him and have their pictures taken with him. They said it was the first time in the country’s medical history that such a thing had happened! Nanay Tacing proudly confessed her miracle-working GOD, and they praised Him for what He’s done.
GOD’s Provision
Their bills ballooned to around P200,000, but Nanay Tacing prayed and begged GOD to help them since they didn’t have that amount of money. No, not even near it. In the end, they only paid over a thousand pesos. Another miracle.
And through all this, the name of the Lord Jesus Christ was exalted and glorified.
But the doctors warned Bro. Roden said that it was possible that his intestines would clump up again in the future, but Nanay Tacing trusted Loving GOD that that wouldn’t happen.
But in mid-April 2013, Bro. Roden’s stomach swelled again, and he was brought to the same hospital. While he was recovering from this second surgery, he met the families of two patients: one was a stage 4 leukaemia patient, a mother; the other was a stage 4 breast cancer patient.
After the Friday overnight worship service, Nanay Tacing went straight to the hospital and found Bro. Roden was waiting for her. He told her about the two desperate patients he had spoken with. Without hesitation, and though Nanay Tacing was very sleepy from the overnight shift, she rushed to the patients’ rooms, accompanied by her son.
Share and Testify
There, she shared the Gospel and her testimonies. She made them receive Dearest LORD JESUS CHRIST and prayed over them and assured them that they could receive GOD’s miraculous healing, too, when they surrender their lives to Him. The families promised to attend JMCIM worship service once they were out of the hospital.
So, that was the divine purpose of the presence of Nanay Tacing and her beloved son Roden in St. Luke’s Medical Center this second time. And when it was time to pay their bills, which reached P80,000, Nanay Tacing prayed again. She only had P1000 in her wallet. And the Great GOD performed a miracle on her behalf once again. The hospital, St. Luke’s Medical Center, was forced to bill them for only P1000.
Hallelujah! To God be all the glory!
