MIRACLE IN KENTUCKY
Miracle = "An event or effect in the physical world deviating from the known laws of nature, or transcending our knowledge of these laws. (Webster's Collegiate Dictionary 1947-when words were words)
In June 1997 Brother Cliff Dispennette of Newport Kentucky was told by the head surgeon at the Veterans Hospital in Cincinnati, Ohio that they would have to amputate his leg below the knee because his foot was ate up with gangrene all the way to the bone. I was present when this was told to him and his wife and the Doctor said he had never seen anyone be healed with their foot in this condition considering the fact Cliff was a diabetic and now it was revealed he had had several heart attacks recently which also restricted blood flow to the foot. I told Cliff there was no way I could ever look at his foot and believe God could heal that mess but we would pray and believe and look to what the Word of God says that they would lay hands on the sick and they would recover. The team of doctors had went in with an electric knife and scraped the bone on the bottom of the foot to remove the gangrene and told Cliff that there was no hope to save the leg.
Cliff told his family and the doctors he would like to talk to the Lord about this amputation and requested to leave the hospital for a few days to pray and so forth. Cliff was told that he should have the surgery immediately because he was in severe danger because of the gangrene spreading rapidly and could even pose a threat to his very life. The whole bottom of his foot looked like raw hamburger that sat in the sun for three days and even the nurses had trouble looking at his foot which stunk so bad they had to rinse it with a solution of bleach and water.
They all thought Cliff wanted
to leave the hospital to kill himself and reluctantly they gave in to his
request to leave the hospital to seek the Lord. Cliff felt led to come to my
church where we believe the Message of the Hour and at the close of the service
the pastor, Brian Kocourek, called Cliff up to the front and then asked me to
come up. I will never forget as long as I live the words this man of God spoke
"Satan, I command you to come out of this mans foot right now in the Name
of the Lord Jesus Christ." Brian told brother Cliff after the prayer that
he was healed and to go away believing and as he believed he would be healed
"according to your faith" it will be done. Brian knew by the authority
of Gods vindicated prophet William Marrion Branham that was a spirit in Cliffs
foot that would not let that foot heal and every time the doctors cut away dead
skin the devil would go deeper with his infectious spirit. I was at my wits end
and did not know what to do to help my friend but praise God as I had fasted and
prayed along with many others God worked the drama to his own glory as the
prophet said one fasts and another casts out devils amen! As we began to believe
the Lord for the miraculous and seemingly impossible healing God began day by
day to restore new skin on a foot that was nearly gone. Morning to evening we
could see new skin develop and fill in the hole where the devil had infected
Cliffs foot. After one year the foot was almost completely healed and according
to what the Man of God had spoke at the altar at Grace Fellowship Tabernacle in
Highland Heights Kentucky the foot was restored as the faith was appropriated. I
want to add something here that as it was spoken according to your faith so be
it. In other words as Cliff daily believed, God provided for He is Jehovah Rapha
meaning the Lord is present to heal. The prophet William Branham stated mustard
seen faith will bring you out and as you believe the mountain will be moved. It
may only be one piece of dirt or one piece of Gangrene at a time but it will
bring you out and cause the Miracle to happen. If you have any doubt as to what
is stated here you are welcome to email
brother Cliff or Brother Brian
as the Bible states in the mouth of two or three witnesses let every word be
established. I take the time now to Praise the Lord for the great Prophet
William Branham and the knowledge God brought through William Branham to bring
about the healing in Cliffs foot. It was Brother Branham who told us that
this was a spirit (a devil) causing this and I thank God for a man of God as
Brian Kocourek who by diligent study of Gods Word knew what to do in casting out
the devils in brother Cliffs foot as that was the beginning of the miracle. 
We ought to be a little more careful to thank God for all He has done and
to thank Him for God sent men who know the Lord and His Word. Thank you Brother
Branham wherever you are in Gods presence that you like Abel of old being
"dead yet speaketh." The Message lives on and we thank you God for
your great grace to us unworthy creatures and that you have made us worthy by
the blood of your Son the Lord Jesus Christ. Look at the picture of the
foot real good as it looks today and this should increase your faith for
your own healing if you have need of it! Keep in mind this foot was gone from an
inch an a half down from the bottom of the toes to the heal to the very bone.
