A popular Nigerian gospel singer Tim Godfrey has shared his experience on how he recovered from paralysis.

The 43-year-old renowned gospel singer shared this via his verified Instagram page @Timgodfreyworld.

In a lengthy message, accompanied with a picture that showed him on the hospital bed, he mentioned that he was diagnosed with aging bones and spines.

The post reads: “This picture right here was when I was admitted in the hospital. It started with me feeling some pain at my back, then a hellish pain in my arms. I went for an MRI and the scientists told me that my bones were 20 years older than my age—over 60 years old when I’m in my 40s,” he wrote.

They also told me that my spinal cord disc had shifted and all these other complicated things all happening to me at the same time. I was always in pain. Sometimes I would hold my hand to my face and cry so badly. They told me that I had overstretched my body and a lot of other evil reports.”

“But as the song says when there is a chance for evil, God turns it for good. I went home after some treatments and intensive prayers believing that I am healed and it is so. Right now I’m really grateful to God for the gift of healing. I imagine the plan of the enemy was that I’ll be paralyzed but God turned it around,” he added.

“To you reading this, God is turning that situation around for your good. No matter the report of the enemy concerning your life, the report of the lord says – he’s turning everything in your Favour! Rejoice!!!!”

He is best known for his song Nara in collaboration with Travis Greene. He is the founder and owner of the record label Rox Nation and also the Founder of Xtreme Crew.
