| In February 2004, when Chong Hon Leong’s daughter told him that she saw ants around their toilet bowl at home, he suspected at once that one of his family members could have diabetes. Since both his parents were diabetic, he knew in his heart that that person would likely be him. A quick home test the next day indicated that indeed he was the one. For confirmation, his fasting blood glucose was taken at a nearby hospital and was found to be 264.6 mg/dl, more than double that of a non-diabetic (normal reading - 80 to 126).
Hon Leong has been a Gospelighter for more than 10 years, praying for the sick and needy at the Miracle Service. So when he read “there is no cure for diabetes yet” in a hospital booklet, “A Guide To Diabetic Diet”, he immediately rejected it. He knew that God can perform the impossible and there are already several cases of diabetes being healed at the Miracle Service. Instead of complaining or blaming God for allowing his condition, he just trusted the Lord to heal him as He had delivered him from backache and shoulder problem in the past.
Undeterred by his circumstance, Hon Leong continued to serve at the Miracle Service. Other than interceding together with his wife and family, he also obtained prayer support from his cell members, our children ministry members and other Gospelighters. He faithfully kept a healthy diet, a regular exercise routine and also took a very small dosage of medication daily. After attending just three Miracle Services, his fasting blood glucose reading returned to normal.
Subsequently, Hon Leong took another test on May 6, 2004, which clearly indicated that his fasting blood glucose reading was in the non-diabetic range. Encouraged, he took a step of faith by stopping his medication altogether three days later on Mother’s Day, with the peace in his heart that God had healed him. He has since been monitoring his fasting blood glucose reading daily and it has hovered around 80 mg/dl, the lower range of a non-diabetic, completely without any medication. Contrary to medical science, Hon Leong has been totally healed from diabetes by the grace of our loving Father in Heaven!
