Miracle at Wal-Mart

By Linda Bressler

As we were leaving the Super Wal-Mart-Store near us, a six month old baby girl had just fallen from her infant-seat in the grocery cart, onto the concrete floor. The seat had only moments before been unbuckled. Her daddy and two officers were attending her lifeless little body when we arrived.

Immediately, Gene (my husband) and I began to boldly pray openly right on the spot. No one stopped us. We were aware of His presence and protection. We were also aware of people continuing to check out their purchases. This seemingly without concern for the little lifeless body lying on the floor. It was so the gospel of "Acts" relived!

Within minutes the Lord had me go over to her very-upset-crying-mommy. After embracing her, I asked if she was Born-Again, she said, "yes". Then I asked her if we could pray together for her baby. Danielle (mom) said, "yes!" The babies name was Sarah.

We prayed boldly for quite some time to God that life be given back to Sarah. We prayed what would be considered "ridiculous prayers". These were prayers only the Lord could answer. All this time, while praying, the child remained flaccid and pale.... The E. M. S. team had yet to arrive.

I didn't see this, but Gene saw a red-spot form on top of baby Sarah's little head. The red-spot began flowing down into her cheeks and brought back color into her face. "It", the spot, appeared to move throughout her body. As it moved over her she began to breathe normally, cry, kick, and look around. She literally came back to life before our eyes and was very upset. All these sounds and actions made us extremely happy indeed!

When Sarah began to stir, Danielle (Sarah's mom) began to think more clearly, and reached down to comfort her baby. When the baby saw her mommy, for the first time since the fall, she responded immediately! It was wonderful seeing a miracle unfolding before our eyes.

The parents were young and very caring. The mom thanked me and another lady who came along side her bringing comfort. The other lady had great compassion in her heart, said, “I have “no children, but understand". She also had an unusual calming presence about her. I've heard angels are only men but wonder now if "the Hispanic looking lady" may have been an angel.

I also remember behind us stood a small man, who I could hear repeat often, while we were praying, "she will be fine." Again in calming, almost unemotional, assurance. He looked Hispanic, like the lady, only smaller in stature. I asked him if he was Born-Again. He looked at me as if he had never heard "the term", and with no expression or answer to my question said, "she will be fine." Two angels? Perhaps so. Is there anything too impossible for God?

Another witness to our hearts happened the following morning. Upon waking up early I was impressed to turn on Christian TV. The teaching was on Aaron's anointing with oil from Psalm 133. The teaching that was taught that morning was about oil which was poured on his head and ran down his face and beard. The teacher said "when the anointing comes it first comes upon the head"!

Immediately the Lord took my thoughts to what Gene saw regarding the red-spot on top of Sarah's head and life coming back into her little body.

Whatever God did that Thursday night we give all glory to him. We saw a miracle at the Super Wal-Mart in Tampa! Just in time for Christmas! An All-God-Event, indeed!

I called St. Joe's Children's Hospital many times. This is where the E. M. S. team took Sarah, and eventually got through to speak to her grandmother. She thanked me profusely and said, "Sarah is perfect! She doesn't even have a bruise or a bump!"

Each time she thanked me I thanked God for what He had done!

We are in great awe for what the Lord did for Sarah. Great awe! However, with this knowledge comes a "knowing" that more of these kinds of miracles, signs and wonders are multiplying in our times... Praise God! We are "seeing His hand and promises unfold before our eyes!"

All we must do is step out and allow Him His way.

God loves us with eternity through sweet Jesus. He has blessed us mega-fold in every way.

These blessings come to us when our life is hidden in Christ Jesus.
