“…it was special for me when Gordon said that because it was so specific…..”

After losing both her mother and brother within a year, Margarita Salah found herself overwhelmed with grief, isolation, and a loss of purpose. Hoping to rebuild her life, she joined a local senior center and discovered pickleball—a new activity that briefly brought her joy. But on her very first day, she fell and injured her left elbow, leaving her in pain and discouraged.

Instead of seeking medical treatment, Margarita prayed for healing as her condition persisted. Days later, while watching The 700 Club, she heard a specific word of knowledge: someone with a left elbow injury from pickleball or tennis was being healed. Believing the message was meant for her, she immediately claimed it in faith.

Within days, Margarita noticed a dramatic change—her bruising disappeared, the pain was gone, and her mobility was fully restored. Today, she continues to play pickleball, has built meaningful friendships, and says the experience deepened her faith and reminded her that God sees, knows, and heals.
