One year, at a conference when a testimony was shared about praying for a dog, a couple paid close attention as a close friend of theirs had a 100-plus-pound Brazilian Mastiff. Before they came to the conference, the dog suddenly got paralysis in the hindquarters. The veterinarian sent her home to pass. Their friend loved the dog and chose not to put her to sleep, so it was on the couple's minds when they came to Bethel.
The speaker received a word in the middle of his message that someone had a large dog, and its back legs were paralyzed. The couple said, “We receive that." When they got home, they called their friend and told them how they had been praying for their dog. She said that she knew they were praying for her. The couple said that they had received a word for the dog. Their friend said that the dog was outside, walking in the back yard.
