In 2003 when Bro Stoneking fell dead of a heart attack at the airport in Australia, the rescue team cut his jacket off of him as they unsuccessfully attempted to resuscitate him. The book, ‘My Miracle and Living the Gospel’ tells this story of what happened to that jacket. He learned about it when he went to Australia the following year. Here is the story:
“I stepped into the pulpit and said, ‘Exactly one year ago on November 12, 2003 I dropped dead of a massive heart attack in your airport and was clinically dead for 45 minutes …”
“I picked up my Bible making my way to the exit from the sanctuary. A lovely Fijian couple walked toward me. The husband held up a navy sport jacket and said, ‘This belonged to a dead man.’
“I was struck with recognition and clarity of thought all at the same time. It was the jacket that I had worn when I fell dead on the floor of the airport! But the jacket I now viewed was just large pieces of jacket cloth pinned together with big safety pins. It had been cut from my dead body by the ambulance driver when he came upon my lifeless form lying on the airport restaurant floor. As I stood there looking at it I felt moved with the reality of my miracle of life all over again. He asked, ‘Do you want it?’
“With some kind of urgent force from within I heard myself reply, ‘Yes!’
“They explained that they had pinned my jacket together and taken it to the prayer room at the church where people came during all hours of the day and night to gather around it and pray with intercessory prayer for my recovery and total healing!
“That jacket now hangs in the library of my home, where from time to time I look upon it and reach out touching the pieces, the pins, and recognizing the reality of the Master’s Touch upon my otherwise hopeless state.”
Quoted from Rev. Lee Stoneking’s book, ‘My Miracle and Living the Gospel’ It tells the story of how Jesus brought him back from the dead. He has been strong and well traveling and preaching for the past ten years.
