Restoration Of A Broken Marriage
Initially, everything seemed to go well in the marriage of Leslie Khoo and Lee Nah. Blessed with a successful business, Leslie became prosperous which allowed them to afford a luxurious lifestyle. However, as he started having more entertainment, his heart for God also shifted. In short, he backslided and stopped attending church altogether. In his relentless search of pleasure and wealth, Leslie got into deeper trouble when he was involved in an extramarital affair.
Before long, with the economic downturn in 2001, tougher market competition and his lack of focus in business, Leslie plunged into financial difficulties. Yet, he continued to put up a false front and indulged in a lifestyle he could ill afford. His debt amounted to $300,000. His relationship with Lee Nah soured up. Soon, even his parents, siblings, relatives and friends began to keep a distance from him. Everything seemed to cave in and Leslie just lazed around at home, stripped of any motivation to work.
When Lee Nah eventually found evidence of his affair, Leslie, who was full of frustration and blinded by the devil, denied. He threatened to harm her and in one of the fights, he even tried to strangle her. Lee Nah was left with no choice but to take legal actions against him. She was granted a Personal Protection Order and an Exclusion Order which kept him out of their condominium she no longer resided in.
Depressed and heartbroken, Lee Nah sought help from her church pastors and professional counselors. Divorce seemed certain. She also attended the Miracle Service. Witnessing numerous miraculous healing of sicknesses, she began to believe that Jesus could heal her marriage too. The fifth time at the service, Lee Nah said a bargaining prayer that she would testify for Him together with Leslie if their marriage were restored. At her tenth Miracle Service, she asked God for forgiveness and received inner healing. She felt a total release and found herself willing to forgive her husband.
Subsequently, their predicament still looked miserable, as there was no improvement in their relationship at all. Even her friends and spiritual leaders in her church urged her to give up. Undaunted, she kept up in prayer. With their problems still unresolved, Leslie returned to the condominium in September 2002 because he was totally broke and desperately needed a place to stay.
In January 2003, one last fight with Lee Nah took Leslie to a police lockup. In the cell all alone, he tried to sleep initially but could not. After five hours, he eventually came to his senses and began to reflect on all his actions that finally landed him in jail. Full of remorse and repentance, he cried out to God to forgive him of all his sins. Shortly after that, he was released from police detention.
Leslie went straight to their house and cleaned up the mess he had made in it. Later that day, when Lee Nah met him at the condominium, Leslie pleaded for forgiveness from her. She forgave him. They prayed together and for the first time in months, they had a long talk.
From then onwards, Leslie's relationship with his parents, siblings, relatives and friends took a positive turn. With prayer, even his ailing business started to pick up. Instead of taking him to court, his major creditor of $200,000 had agreed to pump in another $150,000 in his company. This allowed him to launch out in business again. He also received from another business associate, an investment of $60,000 which he did not even solicit.
In late January 2003, someone stabbed Leslie at his back and left him with a two-inch-deep wound on a Friday. He prayed at the Miracle Service the following day and his wound closed up almost instantly that night. He also received complete healing over his weak gums which had frequently bled over a year.
Through their testimony, two friends received Christ and another two salvaged their troubled marriages. All glory and praise be unto God!
