The Story
Ken Chen, a finance worker from East Texas married for 32 years, faced a near-death experience from severe COVID-19 pneumonia in December 2021. He refused a ventilator and was left in a hospital room on a BiPAP machine, struggling to breathe. During intense prayer, recalling Bible verses, he felt electricity surge through his body like the Spirit quickening him. White light then covered and danced around his body for 30 minutes, filling him with God's peace and love. He sensed his spirit trying to leave but pleaded to live for his daughter. He heard God's voice three times say, 'You shall live and declare the glory of God.' In the morning, a nurse entered, and he saw a vision of Israelites crossing the Red Sea, marking his survival. After the NDE, his prayer life deepened greatly. His spiritual awareness sharpened, allowing him to perceive spiritual issues in others. He now urges people to fight death through faith and seek God fully.
“God just the presence of God the peace I mean I was just sit there just looking”
