Healing Testimonies

Vince Baker shares ten personal accounts of prayer, healing, and recovery, including the story of his wife Eunice’s eyesight.

Why I share these stories

I share these stories to give glory to the Lord and to tell you what I learned about prayer and faith through each experience. Two Scriptures that guide me are 1 Peter 2:24 and Revelation 12:11. These accounts are adapted from my book Be Healed Now.

These are personal experiences. Prayer can accompany appropriate medical care.

Eyesight

God Healed My Eyes

There was a season when my eyesight began to fail, and it quickly became a serious challenge. I could no longer read my phone, my computer screen was blurry, and most troubling of all, I struggled to read my Bible. At work, it was especially difficult. I remember presenting a proposal to a potential client and realizing in the middle of the meeting that I couldn’t even read my own notes. I had to rely entirely on memory to get through, and although I managed to secure the client, it was a constant battle to function without clear vision.

At that point, I tried glasses. They helped while I wore them, and I continued to pray for clear vision. Deep in my heart, I knew I didn’t want to depend on glasses for the rest of my life. I went before the Lord and said, “Father, I need to see clearly so I can read and study Your Word.” From that moment, I began speaking life and healing into my eyes. I declared the Word of God, commanded my eyes to be made whole, and stood on Jesus’ teaching to speak to the mountain. Day after day, I proclaimed healing, and God supernaturally restored my vision. Today, I see with perfect 20/20 eyesight, I can read fine print, I can read in the dark, and I can read my Bible with joy. Glory to God for healing my eyes!

During that time, the Lord also gave me wisdom about my diet and showed me the importance of adding lutein for eye health. Yet I know it wasn’t simply a dietary change that brought my healing; it was the supernatural power of God at work. I not only received a miracle, but I also claimed the promise of God’s Word. The Bible says of Moses that when he was 120 years old, “his eye was not dim, nor his natural force abated.” I stand on that same promise and declare by faith that my eyes will never grow dim all the days of my life. What the enemy tried to steal, God has restored, and I give Him all the praise and glory.

God Healed My Wife’s Eyes

When I married my wife Eunice, she had worn glasses for most of her life. In fact, her family was often referred to as “the glasses family” because nearly all of them needed to wear them, including her children. Glasses had become such a normal part of her life that it seemed as though she would never be without them.

However, after I shared with her how God had healed my own eyesight, I also taught her the power of speaking God’s Word over her body, declaring life, health, and wholeness in faith. She began to boldly speak over her eyes, proclaiming healing and perfect vision. As she stood on the promises of God, the Lord wonderfully healed her eyes.

Today, Eunice no longer needs glasses. Her vision is completely restored, and she enjoys perfect eyesight—all to the glory of God. What once was thought to be permanent in her life has been completely overturned by the healing power of Jesus Christ.

Illness and recovery

God Healed Me of COVID-19

During the time when COVID was spreading, I became very sick. If I talked or moved, I would start coughing uncontrollably. At times the coughing lasted for an hour, and I struggled to breathe. I remember lying in bed afraid that moving would bring on another attack. A hot bath gave me temporary relief, and the symptoms returned afterward.

In the midst of this battle, I prayed in the Name of Jesus and asked God to restore me fully. While symptoms lingered, I held fast to what I believed about the Word of God.

A short time later, while driving my car, I felt the Holy Spirit prompt me to shout. I hesitated because even talking had brought on violent coughing. When I finally raised my voice, I felt the power of God come upon me. From then on, the symptoms I had been experiencing were gone. I thank God for His healing power.

God Healed My Sinus Infection

There was a time when I was struggling with a severe sinus infection that became very annoying. It affected my hearing and even made it uncomfortable to talk. I tried different remedies, but nothing helped. Eventually, I turned to telemedicine, and a doctor prescribed me amoxicillin. I went through two full rounds of it, but it did absolutely nothing for me. The problem remained, and I grew concerned because it seemed like there was no natural solution.

I brought my concern to the Lord and sought Him with all my heart. I believe God touched me, and I give Him thanks that my hearing returned and the condition cleared.

God Healed Me of Swine Flu

Several years ago, when the swine flu was spreading across America and many people were being hospitalized or even dying from it, I was attacked with a severe case myself. The sickness went deep into my lungs, and every time I tried to cough, I couldn’t bring the mucus up because it was filling my lungs. The condition grew so serious.

In the middle of that trial, I sought the Lord. A close friend prayed with me, and we stood on God’s Word together. That night, I felt the illness turn, and I believe God touched my body.

I came through completely healed, with no lasting effects. This became yet another powerful reminder that God is still the Great Healer. When you call upon Him and put your trust in His promises, He shows His power. By the stripes of Jesus, I was healed, and I give all glory and thanks to Him for delivering me.

Pain and physical symptoms

When My Hand Stopped Shaking

There was a time when my hand began to shake uncontrollably, and it continued for weeks. My father had suffered and died from Parkinson’s, so the shaking brought his experience to mind. I turned to what I believe about Jesus and the blessing of Abraham.

With that assurance, I prayed in the Name of Jesus and told my hand to stop shaking. The shaking stopped, and I give God the glory that it has not returned.

God Healed My Feet

I was attacked with terrible shooting pain in my feet. Every time I lay down, my feet burned as though they were on fire, and it felt like knives were stabbing them. Within ten to twenty minutes of lying down, the pain would jolt me awake. Night after night, exhaustion set in.

In that desperate place, I cried out to the Lord and made up my mind that I would fight this curse. I began speaking the Word of God against the pain. I told the devil, “Every time you wake me up, I am going to speak God’s Word and fight you. Even if I have to sit at my table all night, I will not quit.” One night, when the pain was very bad and I was delirious from lack of sleep, God gave me a supernatural encounter. As I stood in my kitchen, suddenly my spirit came out of my body, and I was hovering above myself. The Lord spoke to me and said, “You have a body, but you are not a body; you are a spirit.” God was revealing that I live in a body, but I am a new man created in Christ Jesus, and I returned into my body, strengthened by the revelation.

That very night, God gave me a dream. In the dream, I saw a tree covered with thousands of butterflies. Then all those butterflies flew toward me and landed on my body, covering me completely. God revealed to me that these butterflies represented angels sent to minister healing to every nerve in my body. For the first time, I slept through the entire night. Though the battle was not instantly over, I now had relief, and the Lord continued to teach me how to walk in the victory of my spirit over my flesh. My wife, who had been deeply concerned and even prayed, “Lord, don’t let my husband die,” saw God’s hand of deliverance on me. Through this battle, I came to know in a deeper way that I am a newly created spirit, which is the New man, and I live in a body. I wrote more about what I learned in my book Open Your Eyes.

God Healed My Knees

When I have had pain in my knees, I have prayed and spoken God’s Word over them. I often return to Proverbs 18:21, “Death and life are in the power of the tongue.” I have experienced relief from the pain and give God thanks for it.

In those moments, I also return to James 4:7, “Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he shall flee from you.” It reminds me to put my trust in Jesus and what He did for me.

Injury and recovery

God Healed My Thumb

I went out to Folsom Lake to go jet skiing. I was standing between a boat and a jet ski when a wave slammed them together and caught my thumb. The crushing pain was instant.

In that moment, I felt the Lord tell me, “Ignore it.” I remember going out on the lake that day and being surprised that the pain did not keep me from enjoying it.

Over the next few days, the pain left completely. I give God thanks for healing my thumb.

God Healed My Hip

The very first healing I received was when I was dealing with varicose veins in my leg. I went to the doctor for advice, hoping they could be removed, since the veins were running down my calf. The doctor told me the problem was actually deeper. He said the best solution would be surgery in my hip area to cut off the blood flow that was feeding the issue, and only afterward could the varicose veins in my leg be removed. Trusting the doctor’s advice, I went through with the surgery.

They cut me open near my hip and assured me that I would be healed in three days. At that time, I was a P.E. teacher, and my job required me to walk a lot. I expected a quick recovery, but the opposite happened. Every time I tried to walk, the incision would swell and was painful. I had to keep taking sick leave, and my boss warned me that if I didn’t return soon, they would have to replace me. I was down to my very last day of sick leave.

During that time, my neighbor, who was Catholic, told me about healing meetings where the gifts of the Spirit were in operation, with words of knowledge and miracles happening. I decided to go, and I limped into that meeting in pain and sat down. As the service went on, someone gave a word of knowledge and said, “God is healing someone in the pelvic area.” I didn’t think it applied to me because my mind was focused on the incision near my hip, not the pelvic region. I almost dismissed it. But at the end of the meeting, when I stood to my feet, I realized I was completely healed. The pain was gone. I walked into that meeting limping, but I walked out strong and whole.

That was the very last day of my sick leave. If I hadn’t been healed, I would have lost my job. Instead, God restored me, gave me my strength back, and I was able to continue working. That healing was one of the first times I ever experienced the miracle power of God, and I will never forget it. To this day, I thank Him for stepping in and healing me. Truly, He is the Great Physician.
