My Spirit-filled Walk Through the Valley of Cancer

Book excerpt: Calvin W. McGee, JD is a pastor, husband, and father. He retraces his awesome spiritual odyssey from a diagnosis that he would die of cancer in six months to the medical determination, two years later, that cancer was cured. The author's clear vivid narrative allows the reader to viscerally experience the: signs and wonders, words of knowledge, and anointed dreams, miracles and more which bestowed healing upon this ordinary servant preacher. The author describes how he continually invited God's presence through: meditation, prayers of petition, and spirit helped prayers. He describes the favor he found through songs of adoration and praise in tongues. The author presents evidence worthy of a legal brief, demonstrating that that the favor he found is available to all who know Jesus as Lord, no matter what they may be going through. While giving due consideration to the seminal theological works of the ages, the pastor outlines his beliefs by referencing warmly remembered events in his life such as receiving the baptism of the Holy Spirit as a nine-year-old boy who had climbed up into a chinaberry tree to pray. His constant companion during this journey was his wife, Carol. The intimacy and love between the two serve as a testimony to the inspiring and healing effect that God intended to emanate from the holy institution of marriage.
