Jacqueline Flowers Cancer Testimony Hello, My name is Jacqueline Flowers but my friends call me Jackie. I'm 21 years old living for the Lord Jesus Christ. I'm also a mother of a beautiful daughter named Nevaeh Christine Flowers and a wife to Shadain Lynn Flowers. Early April 2009 I started to experience severe chest pain and massive headaches. It was so painful that I then forced myself up to go to the emergency at General. It was then that the doctors thought I was experiencing a small Heart Attack. So before jumping into that conclusion they ran tests on me. The tests showed a big tumor in the middle of my chest and a smaller one in my neck. They then suggested to do a biopsy to find out EXACTLY what they were dealing with. Later in that week they concluded that I had Hodgkins Lymphoma Cancer. At that time I questioned a lot and I also began to question the Lord (why me?) If it weren't for my husband I would have blamed God. My husband sat and prayed with me and told me to keep my faith and continue to do the things of the Lord. So I prayed and prayed. Forsome reason I still felt weak as if I was dying. By this time I had started my chemotherapy. Then we heard that Prophet Russell Blackman was coming back to Rochester for a three day prayer service. I had met Russell Blackman prior to cancer but he wasn't aware of it at all during this time. It was then that God had given him a word to call me up and pray for me and then to place a white cloth around my neck where the smaller tumor was. God had instructed me to wear this for thirty (30) days then to remove it. Then came the end of the 30 days. So I removed it from my neck but still chose to wear it somewhere on my body. Later that month or so the cancer had left my neck. PRAISE GOD!! So I called Russell Blackman to share this news but I told him about it still being in my chest. Russell and I came to a conclusion that to continue on praying but this time place the cloth on my chest and wear it daily. I began to do so. My biggest worry was losing ALL my hair so I prayed and asked God if he would prevent that from happening. Come Friday, September 4th 2009…. My doctor calls me and says "YOUR CANCER IS GONE… I STILL NEED YOU TO DO RADIATION TO BE SURE IT DOESN'T RETURN." When this news came to me my spirit felt lifted and I thanked God for healing me of Hodgkins Lymphoma Cancer. I was told I could of died. I was told that I was going to lose ALL my hair. As I sit here I sit proudly on God's Word to me and I sit with a head full of hair and full of life. This is because I was obediant to the Lord and I was faithful in my prayers. I just thought that my testimony will encourage others and show God through me. I thank the good Lord for standing by me and for giving me the strength to go through my treatments. I thank him for setting me free. Those he sets free are free INDEED……. No more cancer for me…….. Sincerely, Jacqueline Flowers
Praise Report from Michigan
God is good to us daily. We had a great time in Michigan and the Lord showed up, then showed out, then showed back up again! If you ever received any CD's from our ministry you will want these in a good way, because the Lord spoke to our hearts in such a great way. We had a soul saved by the loving power of God and I was not the one that lead them to Jesus. We also had a lot of people come back to the Lord and repented of the tings that kept them from going forward in the things of God and I was one of them. There is a mighty woman of God that lives in Battle Creek, that God has given a great building and she called it "Mikes Place". She was having a hard time with the leaders of Battle Creek that die not want her to have this building, so they had been fighting her from the start. She only wanted to be obedient to the Lord and open a door for the youth to have a place where they could be blessed. Well, on Friday the Lord had me call her up for prayer and when she came to the front, the Holy Spirit gave me this word, that "It's already done!" Not to worry, because the Lord had gone before her to make her path straight. She called me yesterday to tell me that she received in the mail that it was her building and everything is all right! The Lord on Sunday night spoke a Now word to someone that was there had a bump on their chest and they thought it might be cancer. Well, I had two ladies come to me and said that they were the ones the Lord was speaking about. We prayed for the first lady and she told me that the lump was gone! The second lady we prayed for (I don't lay my hands on women, I have other women place their hands on the women we pray for) she also had a lump on her chest and she could not lift up her arm over her head. After prayer she was able to lift her arm over her head and she said she could not do that for years! My friends from CA and NY plus the rest of the team from Battle Creek and Albion did a great job. It was there prayers and obedience to the Word that made these things happen and not me!

My friend sent me a text message and told me that the Lord has blessed her. She was living in an expensive apartment and is believing God for her move out of state. She is hoping to move this summer. Her lease was up this past month and her landlord refused to let her go month-to-month with her rent. They wanted to push her into a six month lease but she didn't want to sign for that because of the expense of the apartment. She sowed a seed into your ministry while you were here in Michigan and God showed up when she got home. Her children's grandparents called her out of the blue and told her she could stay in a home they own rent-free until she moves out of state. God is good!!!! Amazing!
Mr and Mrs Andrew Guya, Nairobi Kenya
Thank you so much for your encouraging words in the devotion. We thank the Lord for you when our eyes are on Jesus, the afflictions we go through are light compared to the glory that awaits. Me and my family are doing well and we always thank the Lord for you and TVLC for the blessing you have been to us.
I want to let you know that in your last mailing you spoke through the spirit of the Lord and told me to prepare for the next ministry opening. That very day I read the mail, the Lord opened another door for me to go to Burundi in central Africa in October to minister. A friend who is a colleague at the bible college told me that he wanted me to be part of his mission team to Burundi and he chose me to join him. the word of the Lord given to you has been confirmed. Thank you Jesus. that is important because it will open a door to TVLC because I will now be able to meet my friend who has been working in the Burundian first lady's organization and he has started a church in central Burundi. Remember last year when we were talking about ministry in central Africa? The Lord is making it come to pass. Please keep this in your prayers.
I have been seriously thinking about our ministry next year to India. A lot has been going through my head and heart. The doors are so wide open that I do not know where to start. I need to set dates with the leaders in India and if possible we can work on the dates as early as now. I was suggesting between January and March. The January weather is not rainy, but is humid and not very hot, that would be good. There are so many churches in south india that we can be a blessing to and the leaders told me to let them know in advance so they may put things in place. I also have a friend in Delhi, he is a pastor of a big church. We met in Thailand and if the Lord provides, we can all fly into south India then finish our ministry in Delhi which is the capital and fly out from Delhi after our final ministry in this pastor's church.
What are your thoughts about this? I am writing the Indian pastors today and I will furnish them with more information after we have talked.
We love you "our spiritual father" and we are looking forward for an amazing time this year in the presence of the Lord. Guys are seriously waiting for you over here.
Please pray for the families in our church for the many are under the attack of the enemy.
Please pray for a pastor's daughter called Jemaria. She has a rare skin disease, the Lord used me to speak into the pastor and his wife's live before the baby was born. The Lord said that the baby would bring great joy to the family and the wife told me that is how it has been and the devil is messing up with the baby's health. Please pray for the baby.
The Lord bless you indeed and waiting to hear from you soon.
We love you man of God

It was awesome to see how quickly the Lord fulfilled His word in that town.
We ministered at a local church during Sunday service. Prior to Brother Russell preaching the Word, there was a very anointed young girl who danced a beautiful prophetic dance. As we prayed for the young girl, Brother Russell felt led to ask her if she would join us as we minister next weekend at a prophetic school. The parents consented and the young girl was very excited. Later, we found out the family is from the jungle and they were only in town for a short vacation. Their flights were already scheduled for them to return home on Wednesday, this meant she would not be able to join us on Saturday. The girl’s father came to Brother Russell and told him how excited their daughter was and wanted to find out what they could do to support her calling. The parents were able to arrange for the daughter to stay behind and return after her participation in the prophetic school. Brother Russell agreed to pay for her return flight so she could remain and participate.
As Brother Russell preached the word, the Holy Spirit led the service in a different direction. The Lord moved in a mighty way and healed several people of cancer. Then there was an altar call for people who were struggling with suicide. At first only three people came up, and then there were more and more who wanted to be set free from this. We were overwhelmed with praying for the people and the people were blessed, healed, and set free because that’s how the Spirit was leading us.
When we were finished, the pastors took us to their office headquarters and fed us lunch. There was a very young lady who appeared about 12 years old who was serving us and tending to us while we ate. She was very sweet and kind. Brother Russell asked if she was the daughter of the pastors. The pastors told us they did have her as a daughter a short time, however at the moment she was living on her own along with six children whom she was now a mother to. All of them, including the girl, are orphans who were being cared for by an elderly man who died about two months ago. At his death, this girl, who is only 19 years old, assumed the role of mother to these children.
After we finished with lunch, Brother Russell asked if we could pray for the young girl. The girl responded that she thought she wouldn’t get prayer and that she sat in the front row but saw as all the people went up for their healing and she figured the Lord forgot about her. As we prayed for her now, the Lord spoke to the young girl’s heart and said He had taken note of her diligence in assuming the duties of a mother to six children at such an early age. That He would meet her needs and also bless her as she had given up her own childhood in order to make sure these children were cared for.
Brother Russell asked her what were her immediate needs, and she asked for a stable job so she could care for the children and so she could also afford to pursue her own education. After praying for this job, Brother Russell asked once again, what were her immediate needs. The girl bowed her head and cried. Brother Russell asked, “do you have food in the refrigerator?” She responded, “We don’t have a refrigerator.”
Brother Russell felt led by means of his ministry to sow seed into the ministry of this young girl by providing her with the means to buy a refrigerator. In addition to providing the funds for the refrigerator, he provided her with money for food and for school supplies for some of the children. Seeing the look on the face of this young girl and her younger sister who was next to her, it was clear this was good sowing ground and they were really being blessed of God.
While this was being arranged, Brother Russell also felt led to give Pastor a watch someone gave him. This watch is worth about seven thousand dollars. The Pastor agreed to get the watch appraised and would give the money to the young girl so that her needs and those of the children would be met. The Pastor was also to take a thousand dollars to spend on himself and his wife. The Pastor and his wife were also overwhelmed as they did not expect to be blessed in such a way.
We look forward to hearing of the great things the Lord will continue to do with His people.
The power of God is the same today and forever, he does not change, the heavens and the earth shall come and go, but the Word of our God shall continue to have an effect on the people regardless of their condition.
Intellectual or not, when it comes to having an encounter with God, He uses opportunities, cirmcumstances, even when they may appear to be inconvenient. For God these are divine encounters that are written into His plan.
A a few years ago daughter of God was praying for her husband’s salvation who is a business man and an intellectual. He did not want to hear about the things of God or anything that had to do with the Gospel. He would’ve never allowed for a pastor or preacher to come to his home to share a meal and much less to talk about God. Prayer is neve in vain, the Word says, “If two or three are gathered together in my name, there I am in the midst.” God is doing something marvelous.
God blessed this family so they could buy a home and they asked the prophet to come and bless the home. In this reunion there were professionals and intellectuals with various humanist philosophies, but you could sense in them a hunger for something different. The prophet prayed for the entire family and for the friends that were there, always with much respect asking for permission and he would go only as far as they would allow. To our surprise, this woman’s husband allowed the prayer over the people and even allowed prayer over each of the rooms. How great is our God that makes turns a heart of stone into a heart of flesh. This is the start of something much greater for this family and especially for this businessman.
B.S.
About two years ago in September of 2008, Brother Russell gave a word to a successful business man that the Lord would be taking his business to a new level because he is a good man and has a good heart. This was a mining business and the Lord told him that when he goes to this mine he would find a substance there that would change the world’s economy. This mineral would catapult him into different nations and he would be well-known through this finding that God has given him.
The businessman is not a believer and very intellectual. Though his wife is a woman of faith in the Lord and a prayerful woman, he was always cold and rejected any ideas that had to do with God. Nevertheless, this day when the business was on his way to China, he received the call from his assistant who is also a believer. She told him Brother Russell had a word from the Lord for him and he accepted the phone call and listened to the word.
When the wife found out the business had received the word, she was walking on her way to the doctor when she stopped right there on the street and began to praise God. She was filled with love and joy for the Lord because her husband had opened his heart to hear what the Lord was saying. Her prayers were beginning to be answered. She even hid behind a car so she could drop to her knees and praise him. She realized she was in public and decided to praise quietly so people wouldn’t thing she was crazy. She could not hold in her excitement and gratitude as she cried and worshiped the Lord.
In the months to follow, before Christmas, the recession hit and the businessman was forced to lay off many of his employees. In the mine, they were processing copper and the price of copper had dropped from $3.80 an ounce to 80 cents. The business was on the verge of bankruptcy and the lenders for the processing plant came to the businessman and said they were concerned he would not be able to pay off the loan which was almost a million dollars so they were going to reposses the plant.
As the business was about to lose everything, his wife remembered the word from the lord. She called the assistant and her sisters to stand in prayer with her over the prophetic word that had been spoken. The wife knew the Lord would not take the business when He just told them he was about to prosper them and take them to a new level. At the same time, the businessman took to studying diligently in private. The businessman has a degree in mechanical and electrical engineering and he took to studying the mining field. As the women continued to pray and stand on the word of the Lord, the businessman continued to study.
Soon after this, the businessman came out of his studies and said he figured out a way to take the waste from the copper and process it for use. The businessman began to process this waste, called “slack”, and to date is the only businessman in the world that does this. The business prospered and they were able to not only pay off the money owed on the power plant, but they were also able to buy a second home that was actually two blocks away from work. This was a second answer to the wife’s prayer who was concerned about the long distance her husband had to travel to work.
Who else but God would turn waste into wealth?!
But that’s not all. The businessman also purchased an expensive laser machine that gives a reading on what minerals are contained in samples from the mine. When the businessman used this device to read some of the samples he began to discover there was more copper in the mine than what he thought. Rocks that he thought were not useful contained large amounts of copper. A rock with a reading of about 3% is good enough for processing. The business has found rocks of 7%, 12%, and even a few days ago as much as 48%! The businessman admitted to his wife this was truly a miracle from God.
At the moment, the businessman has taken the lead in fields for which he was not an expert. Fields where geologists and other experts should be evaluating the mines, he is now the leading expert in the world. His business receives samples from Africa, Croatia, and all over the world. God has glorified Himself once again and we are so happy to share His marvelous works.
