Unicorns are Awesome and So Is Jesus
We were early for the transport so I stopped at the nurse’s station to get a report on our patient. Annette was a 16-year-old girl who had spent the last three days in the hospital after trying to kill herself. We were transporting her to a mental health facility for evaluation and treatment. There was just one problem. Annette’s mother was addicted to drugs and at the present time, she was homeless. Before we could get her admitted to the receiving facility, her mother had to be there to sign her in. And with her being homeless, there was no guarantee she would be there. I’ve had to wait several hours for a parent or legal guardian to show up before a minor patient could be admitted, so when I hear that the parent’s whereabouts are unknown, it always makes me a little uneasy.
I walked to her room and peeked inside and was surprised to find my partner already joking around with her. I watched them for a few more minutes then introduced myself. Annette’s long hair was layered with a deep red and electric pink. The pink was the same color as the stuffed unicorn she clutched in her hands.
We talked for a while and as I got to know more about her, I took an instant liking to her. She reminded me of my daughter; happy, smiling often and full of life. She didn’t seem like the type of person who would be depressed or suicidal. It was time to leave, so I told her to get her personal belongings together. Holding up her cell phone and her unicorn she said, “This is all I have. I’m ready.”
I looked at the unicorn, then at her, and said, “Unicorns are awesome. And you’re awesome….therefore you are a unicorn.” She busted up laughing and I helped her to the gurney.
The trip would take about 30 minutes. I got a set of vitals and started asking about her medical history, prescription medications and allergies. She said she had scoliosis and was supposed to be taking a pain medication for it, but she didn’t have a way to get the prescription filled.
“Scoliosis?” I asked. “How bad is your pain on a scale of one to ten?”
“About a seven most of the time. My back bones pop and make this crunching sound whenever I turn to the left or right.”
I became silent for a few minutes, thinking about my next move. I wondered if she’d be open to prayer and of course, I wondered if she’d actually be healed if I prayed with her.
“I’m afraid you might be one of those people,” I said.
She turned to look at me. “One of what people?”
“One of those people I pray with who gets healed,” I replied.
“What do you mean healed?” She asked.
“Well….I pray with a lot of my patients and a lot of them are healed. And you have back pain and I’m pretty sure that if I prayed with you, it would be healed. Have you ever seen a healing miracle?” I asked.
“Yeah….once,” She replied. “When my gramma got sick and she lost the feeling in her left leg, the doctors said they would have to amputate it or else she would die. We all gathered around her and prayed and asked God to heal her. She got all the feeling back in her leg and they never did amputate it.”
“Wow. That’s pretty cool.” I said.
She looked at me. “I don’t just have scoliosis.’ She said with a serious look on her face. “I have a problem in my knee, too. Pointing to her fibula and her tibia, she said, “There’s nothing between these two bones in my leg. It’s bone on bone. My knee hurts all the time.”
“On a scale of one to ten how bad is the pain?” I asked.
“It’s about a nine.”
I sighed, looked at her, and said, “Well, do you want to be healed or not?”
“Yeah. That would be cool.” She said, smiling.
I moved to a different seat in the ambulance so I could be next to her and explained what I was going to do. Starting with her knee, I commanded spirits of pain to leave then commanded ligaments, tendons, bones, nerves, and muscle to be healed. Since the pad between the upper and lower bones of the leg is called the meniscus, and it seemed like her meniscus had deteriorated to where it was no longer doing its job, I commanded a new one to be created.
“What do you feel?” I asked.
“Wow! It feels great!” She exclaimed.
“Go ahead, move it around. Test it out. I guarantee you that thing is healed,” I said with a smile. She moved her leg and flexed her knee joint several times trying to make the pain return, but there was none. It was completely healed. So I asked about her back.
“Are you ready to have your back healed?”
“Yes!” She said excitedly.
I asked where the pain was located and when she said it was near the middle of her back, I placed my hand there and commanded the bones of her spine to come into alignment. I commanded scoliosis to leave and commanded ligaments and nerves to be healed.
“What do you feel?” I asked.
“Heat.” She said, grinning. It feels really warm and it doesn’t hurt anymore.”
“Well, that’s because God is healing you.”
I prayed again, but this time I spoke to her destiny. I declared God’s identity over her and asked the Holy Spirit to remove painful emotions and memories and to heal her soul. I declared God’s protection and provision. I figured a kid like her needed as much help as she could get. She became very relaxed and in a few minutes, she was sleeping on the gurney with her unicorn clutched tightly to her chest. I let her sleep the rest of the way and my fears about her mom never materialized. She was waiting for us when we got there
Unicorns are awesome… and so is Jesus.
Wow. Thanks for being instrumental in setting her free.
wow! awesome story with a beautiful ending! i pray she continues on the road of her destiny…you’re an amazing person PM…keep doing what you’re doing, it’s an encouragement to us all and you’re getting the job done for the kingdom!
This is awesome. But what about HIPAA?
The image is a stock photo from the internet, and I never use the real names of my patients. Thanks, Valerie!
Beautiful testimony, PM!! Thank you, Jesus!
Reminds me of the saying, ” to the world you might just be one person, but to one person you might just be the world”.
Beautiful…Brought tears to my heart and my eyes. God is so very good.
happytears! 🙂
Amazing. Father is really using you in this world. What a light you are!
Awesome testimony! I also work in healthcare and I pray for my patients when opportunity is presented. I prayed to The Lord to put people in my path that are hungry, thirsty and hurting. Sometimes I see immediate results. I am reading your book and is blessing me so much. You have put a voice to many of my thoughts! I have some health challenges myself, and I realize that there have been some deep rooted hurts that paint our perspectives in our needs and how we pray for others. Following up on your mentioning Charles Kraft in an interview, I am watching a teaching video on Vimeo on freedom and it is eye opening! I have been hurt many times by people in healing circles for not receiving healing and have accused and shame me and others of x and y. You warn people in your book about that as how they could be driven by deeds or works as oppossed to love and compassion. I am seeing more results praying for people as I go out of love … Filling gas tank, picking up pizza, etc. such a need ! God is awesome – thank you for your blog…! And emphasizing need to also heal the heart (broken hearts) Luke 4:17-18 – it is part of the Gospel being left out. Blessings to you!
How awesome is our God! Thank you so much for posting this and thanking God for you and how God is using you!
Love this! Thank you for bringing Jesus to everyone you meet!
Woah !!!
Thank you so much for love deposited!!!
awesome testimony..
Another testimony to HIS greatness!…Thanks for sharing!
Glory!!!! Thank you for making my day again PM!!! Praise you Jesus!!!
Not that it’s important, but I’m interested to know, where did you learn to pray with that faith? Did you go to a certain Bible or ministry school?
Thanks for the question David. I have no formal training in ministry. My approach is one I learned by trial and errror by praying with hundreds of patients over the last 5 years.
Wow…Amazing Story. Very Touching. Can’t wait for your new book to come out.
You inspire me young man.
aghhh, I’m in tears, feeling so much love in that story. Could you pray for my 14 y.o. daughter Victoria for scoliosis too please? She’s in constant pain from it. I believe she will be healed.
I appreciate having read this. It is nice when one receives Jesus’ healing touch through a human being. It brings relief, joy, encouragement and possibly a belief in Jesus and just maybe, a salvation. God is so very good! He sends people our way to help us and to help point the way to Him. Thank you for sharing.
PTL!!
I love it! Thanks for sharing!
This has been happening to me for over a week now. I have been reading a book that details healings and miracle testimonies and every time I read this woman’s accounts, I feel heat and healing in my own body and emotions.
I started reading this and when it got to the part where you were commanding healing of her meniscus, my knees… and I am trying to type this while my body is kind of… a jerking machine right now… my knees are full of heat and also my spine. I wasn’t asking, but I’ll receive it just the same.
Jesus is awesome… and efficient, it seems.
You are awesome. I wish I could bring my husband to you.
I love your heart of mercy PM. You remind me of Jesus. I would imagine that young girl is doing well.
When you have the heart of God, you can’t help but show his love and compassion to others. Thanks PM, for sharing your walk and showing us how to do the same.

Thanks Praying Medic.
Totally awesome! Could you pray for mu shoulder ,back and knees. … stiffness and burning pain
I used your prayers over my knee and ankle this morning. I hyperextended my knee, and had pain and swelling from my ankle, up my shins and both sides of my knee. After praying over it, I can walk on it with very little or if any pain.
Thanks for your ministry! You are helping me learn how to pray.
Awesome!
