Baptist Pastor Reports New Testament Miracles

Baptist Pastor Oneias Cezar Fulho reports New Testament miracles after attending Elijah Challenge Basic Training held at Juiz de Fora, Brazil in August 2010.

Here is the report that this pastor emailed to Pastor William Lau.

Juiz de Fora, Brazil

I am Pastor Oneias Cezar Filho, who met you at the airport in Rio on your way to Juiz de Fora in Brazil [in August 2010]. My son Pastor Daniel and I were with you at The Elijah Challenge Basic Training in Juiz de Fora.

On Wednesday night there I had my ears healed from a disability which had been getting worse. Returning to Rio de Janeiro, I felt that God would apply in our ministry the vision which was given to you regarding the “Jesus method of healing the sick.” I taught what I received in Juiz de Fora to our people, and miracles began to happen.

Rectal cancer miraculously disappears

One Sunday I went to one of our daughter churches to minister. There I met a dear brother who had cancer of the rectum. He was to undergo surgery on Tuesday for the removal of his rectum. He was forbidden to eat solid food by the doctors. I laid my hands on him and rebuked the disease. 

That same day he went home and asked his wife to prepare him some good solid food, and he ate everything. On Monday the day after, it would normally be time in the bathroom for him. But on Monday he ate normally and the next day, before going in for surgery at the hospital, he went to the bathroom and defecated normally. 

When the brother arrived at the hospital, the doctor was very embarrassed because he had forgotten to schedule the surgery. The brother smiled, knowing that God was at work. He asked to be examined again and the doctor found no more cancer. Thanks to God Almighty!

Blind woman sees at Sunday service

But at that same worship service on Sunday there was a woman blind in both eyes. She was not a member of the church, but the mother of one of the members. I confess that I trembled inside, under such pressure, having to begin by facing someone who was blind. But I laid my hands directly on the eyes of the woman and rebuked the disease. When I removed my hands, she said that she was seeing. I did three tests to prove the miracle before the people who had crowded the church. It went perfectly with the three tests. She even accurately described how I looked and how I was dressed. 

There was a Dutch girl at church who was going to the United States for a Ph.D. in Biomedical Sciences. She was a scientist along with her Brazilian husband. He translated into Dutch everything I said and she was delighted. After the service, she came to me wanting to talk to me. But I had already gone. I went away soon after the miracle, passing the word to the local pastor, our assistant pastor at that church who is my daughter. Before the women’s eyes were opened I was so perplexed. I could feel the tension in the church as they looked to me for the final element of the miracle.

Blind man screams he can see

But God would do more. In those days, a brother from my church who had heard what I forwarded to people about the power to heal the sick was making a business visit to a family in the neighborhood of Barra da Tijuca. Arriving in Rio, he found an elderly gentleman who was blind in one eye and who had experienced loss of vision in his other eye as well. He suffered from a degenerative disease and the doctors had done surgery on the second eye trying to save it. But they failed, and so he was also blind in this eye. Andrea then told him what he had learned in church with me and asked if he believed that the Lord Jesus could restore his vision and heal him. He said yes. Andrea then put his hands over his eyes and rebuked the blindness. When Andrea removed his hands, the man opened his eyes and started screaming that he was seeing. His family ran and started calling other family members on the phone, tell them about the miracle. That's when the man's sister turned to Andrea, and asked: "Son, in addition to selling health insurance, who are you?" And Andrea was then able to share the gospel to the whole family.

Spinal Columns Healed

God is healing many people in our church since then. There have been many cures for spinal columns. On Wednesday, when I prayed for people with problems in their spine, a sister who was from another church was present. She believed she would receive her healing right there sitting in the pew. She said the pain was totally gone in hours. She came home and felt nothing. The next day to prove the miracle was real she jumped rope one hundred times, and felt nothing. That same day, in the afternoon, she again took the rope and jumped more than 100 times, and felt nothing. She was healed!

Dying cancer victim gets up healed in hospital room after life support removed and takes shower

She received a urgent telephone call from her relatives in another state of Brazil, in Minas Gerais. There in the city of Juiz de Fora, her mother, a terminally ill cancer patient, was dying. The doctors had reported that they would pull the plug on her so that she would die.

The daughter traveled there and went to the hospital. The doctor had disconnected the life support which had kept her mother alive. But she laid hands on her mother and rebuked the spirit of death. She spent time rebuking the spirit of death forbidding it to touch her mother, and commanding her healing in Jesus' name. That was when her mother opened her eyes and started talking to her normally. She had been in a coma but now she was completely healed. She sat up in bed and said he wanted to take a bath. She went alone to the bathroom to take a shower. 

At this time the nurse came in and seeing the scene, she was amazed. She took away the bed sheets and replaced them. That was when the doctor came in and did not see the patient. He told the nurse, "She's dead? You already took the body to the morgue?" The nurse then told the doctor: "Doctor, go into the bathroom and look." When the doctor went to the bathroom, he saw the woman who had been dying now bathing alone. He hugged the daughter who had been ministering healing to her mother. Moved, he said something like, "Yeah ... You are a woman of faith!" They then did some tests to confirm the healing. The next day she was discharged and went home. 

When she was still in the hospital her daughter had bought roast chicken for her to eat. When the mother saw it, she ate almost the whole chicken. Sentenced to death, she ate almost the entire chicken. But now the old lady is a blessing, completely healed. 

There are many healings in our midst. Often people feel great heat at the site of the disease as they are healed.

Many healed as Pastor Oneias conducts Basic Training

We conducted a seminar here at our church based on your seminar on the Internet. It was a great blessing. We had about 600 people, and they are already asking for the second phase. Again we saw many people healed. A lady who suffered from pulmonary emphysema, a lung disease caused by having smoked a lot for many years, was fully healed. She said that she had been unable to lie on the left side of her back. But she is now completely cured. 

Brother, I am communicating these testimonies to you for joy, knowing that the vision that God gave you is [for] another large city in the world: Rio de Janeiro. I have a great desire that you come soon to Rio and to our church. We will welcome you warmly as we do with all the servants of God that come from Him to bless us. But know, dear brother, that something good is happening between us. May God bless you for it. 

There are many other healings---many---and they will be increasing. 

To God be all the glory, forever and ever!

A fraternal greeting in Christ Jesus,

Pastor Oneias Cezar Filho
Zion Baptist Church in Campo Grande, Rio de Janeiro
