The following are 19 genuine testimonies about the healing of the physical body from people who have been blessed through Richard's book,'The Awesome Power of Blessing' and Richard Brunton Ministries.
31 August 2021- Message from Richard:
I was reflecting on the fact that thousands of people have received healing simply by blessing their body or body-part in the name of Jesus.
Why does it work? How does it work?
Some healings come by blessing and people releasing the ones who have hurt them (this is a significant extra step over and above merely forgiving them). Other healings by receiving a parent’s blessing (especially the father’s blessing). The resultant healing of the wounds of the heart can often lead to physical healing; sickness on the inside often manifests on the outside.
What about straight out physical healing.
I think I can identify a number of elements:
• Thankfulness for our bodies, declaring that they are wonderfully and fearfully made. Expressed verbally, out loud. We need to listen to what we say; faith comes from hearing. Love starts to come too.
• Repent for complaining about our health problems, if that is the case. Complaining locks the condition in, whereas thanksgiving attracts God’s power.
• Let His love flow through you. Love is the carrier wave of God’s power. Remember that the same power that raised Jesus from the dead is within you if you are a Spirit-filled Christian.
• Bless the body part, in the name of Jesus, in love and the quiet assurance of your authority to do so. Speaking blessing in love and faith activates the power of God.
• Speak and release healing, strength, restoration, normal function
• Thank God.
The results might be immediate, overnight, or may take days, weeks or even months, but keep blessing until the healing comes.
There is still mystery around healing. I’m not pretending to have all the answers. But the above summarises what I have learned so far regarding the power of blessing. I hope it helps someone.

Prostate gland
Richard, I’ve been waiting for my medical check up today so I can reply you.
My doctor is very happy (and I too) for the results of my prostate gland which was a source of worry for him. Results have revealed that it’s size is normal for my age and there shouldn’t be any cause for alarm. I will be honest with you Richard I can’t remember when I last had a backache ever since you pronounced the blessing of health over my back and prostate on 13th April 2021.
You first blessed me and pronounced healing on my back in February and the backache began to slow down but when you spoke a blessing the second time in April I have been totally healed. The doctor has confirmed that I am well and I give praise, honour and thankfulness to our Lord.
Thank you for the blessing once again Richard.

A doctor who speaks a blessing for his patients
Your message on blessing has taken my prayers for other people to another level.
My name is D..., and I am a GP in the South Island ....Your teaching on blessing has equipped me further when I pray for others and I have found that people are more open to blessings than prayers and I have found quicker results with blessings also.
One of my patients was an atheist and suffered from chronic pain and fatigue. He has been to various specialists and tried many different things without improvement. One day he was very frustrated and said, “I have tried everything and nothing has worked.”
I replied, “You haven’t tried blessing yet. Can I give you a blessing at the end of consultation?"
He agreed and I blessed him. After seeing him a few more times and a few blessings, I didn’t see any visible change. I was a little bit discouraged and that day was very busy and I was running behind, with few patients waiting, so I didn’t bless him. On his next appointment, towards the end of the consultation I was having a spiritual battle in my mind about whether I should offer him the blessing or not, fearing he might say no and say the blessing didn’t work. While I was struggling on the inside, he said to me, “D...., do you have time to give me a blessing today because you forgot last time and I felt the difference.”
Immediately I repented to God of my little faith and replied “Of course, always time for a blessing.”
After that, I asked God, "How can I bring him closer to You?" God spoke to me by a strong impression to my heart, “Pray for him in the Spirit.”
So I explained to him, “Can I bless you slightly differently today? I will bless you first then ask the Holy Spirit to bless you after that.” He agreed and I blessed him. After the blessing, he was flushed in his face and body, mildly trembling with his eyes closed. I knew He was experiencing the Holy Spirit so I let the Holy Spirit work on him.
About two minutes later I asked him “What happened?”
He replied “When you blessed me in English, everything was okay but when you started to speak in that language, it’s like my inside was wide open and the light just came in.”
I immediately gave the glory to God and said to him that it’s not from me but from God. God loves him just as He loves me and God wants him to know Him just as I did.
The next time I blessed him in the same way and he was touched by the Holy Spirit again and couldn’t speak for a few minutes. He later told me. “I think I saw an image. I think I saw Jesus.”
I was like “Wow!” (but you were an atheist)!
Over time I noticed the change, every conversation we had, little obstacles like doubts, lies, misconceptions, slowly got tossed away and he has a new desire to know more about Christianity. He is no longer an atheist – he believes in God but still not sure who Jesus is.
Another amazing thing is that he often walked into my consultation stiff and in pain but after the blessing, he was able to move much more freely, touching the ground with his fingers and often without pain. He told me, “This feels so good and I wish it could stay longer.”
I encouraged him, “It could, just draw close of God and pray to Him and ask to experience Him.”
Initially I wanted God to heal him straight away and see radical conversion but now I know that God knows everyone’s heart and where they are at. God allows me to see him every month to share love and truth and deal with his questions and misconceptions and draw him near to Him.
All glory and praise to God our Father and Christ our Saviour and Holy Spirit our Counsellor and Helper.
A few of us regularly bless our workplace and work colleagues and the results are quick and beyond my imagination – more harmony, more unity, people asking faith questions in the lunch room ... Blessings (March 2021)

Dale Garrett speaking to Richard Brunton about the healing she's recently received for Restless Legs Syndrome.
Spoke with Dale Garrett this morning who suffered with Restless Leg Syndrome. She had spent a fortune on various pills and rubs but nothing worked. She had to get up in the middle of the night in the cold and walk around. "Hideous," she said. Then she read the Awesome Power of Blessing again and decided to put it into practice. She gave thanks for her legs and their service over 70 plus years, then she blessed them and continued to do so. That was about a month ago and only once in that time has the problem recurred. Praise God.

Recovery of sight for the blind
Ps John Israel in Tanzania thought to turn The Awesome Power of Blessing into an audio book in Swahili and made 2,600 SD cards, the idea being to reach people in remote villages who couldn’t read. There was a man nearly blind for twenty years - he’s the big man in the jacket in the photo below. After listening to the audio book (the green gadget in the second pic) he can now see clearly. Hugs, great excitement. The village shocked. You can imagine.
2000 years later the same risen Christ is still doing mighty miracles. Blessing, in the name of the Lord, is one very practical way of releasing His love and power, which is open to every believer. Praise the Lord.

Blessing conference in Tanzania.
Not enough room for everybody. People watching through windows. Many knees healed, diabetes too - diabetics would drink sugary tea the next day to test! Many marriages healed. Incredible weeping. Pastors and leaders hugely encouraged. Many enrolled in a new Blessing School.
Organising Pastor - “Never in my life I see anything like this."

Encouragement
Psalm 91 is talked about a lot at the moment as the Christian’s protection.
There are 2 conditions as I see it:
1. The first is that we live very close to the Lord - verse 1.
2. The second is the word of our testimony - verse 2.
Quoting from Derek Prince re. verse 2 (capital letters added):
“This is the antechamber, the entranceway, into the complete protection of the remaining verses of that psalm. It is your testimony: I will say. IF YOU DO NOT SAY IT YOU WILL NOT HAVE IT. And it takes some courage to say what follows in Psalm 91. But only those who say it have the scriptural right to live in it. It is the word of our testimony that makes it effective.”

From Zambia, December 2019 ... we had very blessed and powerful blessing seminars in villages and we've got a lot of testimonies I want to share with you.
For a long time many peoples have bone pains but after the blessing prayer they received healing. One man in particular had knee pain for 8 years, after just 10 minutes it was very hard for him to walk. After blessing prayer he received complete healing and every day he is running 5 KM - now he is very strong man. Praise the Lord God completely healed him.
Few days ago we organized blessing seminar in Catholic churches and during the blessing seminars a lot of peoples received the Holy Spirit and they speaking in tongues in Catholic churches! Hallelujah Praise the Lord.
The Awesome Power of Blessing book is so much working in Muslim peoples’ lives.
Through The Awesome Power of Blessing book the Lord released many Muslims and Catholic peoples from many curses and after reading the blessing book many Muslims coming to Jesus Christ ...
We are very grateful to you that you gave us blessing books.
Much greetings from Zambia

She said, "All the scans and reports have come back, and they simply cannot find it!”
Last year I went for a ultra-sound scan for a pain in my groin/testicle. The specialist could find nothing wrong and had a thought to check my kidneys. On doing this she saw a large mass on my adrenal gland. I was then called in by my doctor and sent to a specialist at North Shore Hospital. The specialist said there was a chance it could be cancer - in all situations with any mass over 4cm the doctors want to operate and remove it regardless if it is cancer or not. In my case the mass measured 6cm. As an itinerant pastor and a man of faith I have had the privilege of seeing incredible signs and wonders of the Lord's power in amazing ways but it is somehow different when it is me in that place facing a personal giant.
It was then that I came across a little book called, "The Awesome Power of Blessing" by Richard Brunton. As I remember, I opened it and read just a small section about the power of blessing. My first thought was, "This will do." I started blessing my adrenal gland and researched its function. I continued to bless my adrenal gland every morning as well as the hormones it released and what it was meant to be doing in my body.
Month by month, test by test, the journey continued. Believe you me when I say I had some ups and downs on this road. We finally had the follow-up appointment to meet the specialist at North Shore hospital again. I remember the morning well because we had to wait for ages as the doctor was running very late. In fact, we allowed a man to go in front of us as he had another appointment he was about to miss. Then it was my turn, the doctor invited us into her room and said, " Well, I only have good news for you”! She sat down, read her notes and continued, “I am so sorry for wasting your time, all the scans and reports have come back, and they simply cannot find it!”
We shared with the doctor our faith and belief in a God who can do miracles like this.

Stomach ulcer and skin allergy healed - Kenya
Praise Jesus, I bless you in Jesus name. It was on 27-29/11/2019 when I attended the Gathering of Generals pastors’ conference in Turbo, Kenya that I met Bishop Edward Baleke from Uganda, and Sammy Nduwayo from DRC Congo who were speaking about the awesome power of blessing. I was seriously suffering from a stomach ulcer and skin allergy.
After the session I went back to the hotel and blessed my body. Next morning I discovered I had been miraculously healed. On the last day I approached Mrs Baleke for a copy of the book, and they only had one copy which they gave me. I have already read the book twice and prepared a sermon to preach on church service this Sunday.

Blessed and Healed - Ovarian Cysts
A few weeks ago my friend had a scan which confirmed that she had ovarian cysts. In excruciating pain one morning she remembered what she'd read from your book and then began to bless her ovaries. The pain went and a subsequent scan shortly after showed that the cysts had disappeared. She then understood the power of blessing and rang me to testify.

Healing Often Goes with Blessing
Last night I had the privilege and joy of speaking a father’s blessing over a young woman.
During the blessing she suddenly proclaimed, startled, "I can hear!"
I wasn’t aware of it but she was deaf in one ear and it had suddenly opened. God is so good and He wanted to show this woman that He loved her and knew her intimately.
It reminds me of a time earlier this year when I blessed a woman in a market in Nandi. After I blessed her I asked her if she had pain in her body. She replied that she did have when I started the blessing but that it was all gone.
And then there was the father in Kenya who blessed his daughter and from that time on she had no more migraines.
A young businessman whom I blessed with father’s blessing in a cafe had continual stomach problems that disappeared from that moment on.
When we bless in Jesus name we release the Kingdom of God in that person's life and circumstances - and there is healing in the Kingdom.
God waits to lunge out in love and power if we will only release His love and power with our mouths.

This Book Gets Around - Woman Healed
I have an epic story to share with you: I posted one of your books to my sister who lives in Upper Hutt. She read it and gave it to her neighbour.
Her neighbour asked where she could get more so she could distribute them. So, I ordered a box of books through you in March.
The neighbour's name is Karen and I have never met her.
In the first week of September 2018, my sister phoned me to tell me this story.
After Karen received your books she started distributing them. She first went to a local church morning-tea meeting where members of the community are invited along. She gave the leader of the morning-tea group 5 copies.
This lady then gave one of her 5 copies to an elderly man who had just lost his wife. He read it, was impacted by your little book and sent it to his son and daughter-in-law who live in Palmerston North.
They read it, were impacted by it and gave it to a Christian lady at their church who had a terminal illness.
She read it and applied it to every area of her life. She went back to the doctor and is totally healed!!! Jesus!!!

Confidence Growing: Learning to Bless and Pray for Healing
Hi Richard,
It was wonderful and unexpected to be able to talk to you along with my daughter about a month ago.
After reading your book my daughter and myself were really galvanised into action. We have prayed for people, blessed them to health and encouraged them by giving them a copy of your book to bless their prayer life as well. Each time my daughter managed to pick up the book and read a chapter, someone came into her life who she would have to give the book to. We gave out the first 20 copies to bless others within a month. I had to carry them in my handbag as she was approached by her friends with issues and she would pray for them and give out the book. She encouraged them to bless every situation they were going into. Her friends are reporting back great success.
16th December 2018 The first healing I was involved in after reading your book was at church where a person had a herniated disk. You could actually feel the jelly out of alignment in the spine. The person was bent over and in great pain. The anti-inflammatory that had been taken in the morning had worn off and the person was desperate for healing or more pills. I noticed they were being prayed for and moved to assist . I used what I had learnt in the book about praying for healing and I asked the Holy Spirit for guidance in how to pray. This was the first time I had stepped out in church for a long time to pray for healing, hands on. The Holy Spirit encouraged me to pray for the spine to come into alignment and for every sinew, atom of their being, blood vessel and ligament to be blessed in the name of the Father, Jesus Christ His Son and the Holy Spirit. I blessed all the work of their hands, their going out and their coming in, their ministry for the Lord and every other blessing that came to mind during the prayer. During the time I prayed, I felt the really strong heat in my right hand over the spine. The person could not feel the heat when I told them what I was sensing. But I felt reassured that the blessing was working.
Two weeks later the person came and told me they had been healed that Sunday and that they were really grateful for the healing. They had felt no immediate improvement or the heat I had felt during the prayer. But in just 4 hours they realised they had been completely healed and were pain free, and have not taken any medication since. I was praising God that I had stepped out in faith and blessed them back to health. I constantly use the phrase “in the name of Father, Jesus Christ His Son the the Holy Spirit” to reinforce to the person I am praying for that it is not me. I am only stepping out in faith for them.
The second healing I have had is for myself. I blessed my own skin as I have had for at least 4 years three lesions on my back that were ugly but not cancerous and the doctor would not remove them. I blessed my skin back to health for several nights and checked the following night to see if they were gone. I was expecting them to disappear. I could not reach them myself to scratch them off to see if they would come off and my husband refused to do anything to them either. They appeared to be growing in size height-wise, and looked worse to me. My daughter was putting sunscreen on my back and she said to me, "I feel like I want to scratch at these growths on your back is that okay?" I told her to go ahead and although she has very short fingernails the first one just popped off in her hand. She went ahead and removed the other two as well. The wonderful thing for me is there is no scarring from them and I no longer have to see them in a place I cannot reach.
My daughter and son-in-law prayed the blessing of the Father over their children the other night and one of the boys just sobbed the whole way through, I believe the prayer will be a turning point for his life.
Richard I want to bless you in everything you put your hand to, thank you for your little book, I think the best thing about your book is it is condensed and easy to understand and apply; anyone can read it and be encouraged.
Thank you so much for your faithfulness to God and all the sharing you do, as well at Promise Keepers.

She encouraged them to bless every situation they were going into. Her friends are reporting back great success.
16th December 2018 The first healing I was involved in after reading your book was at church where a person had a herniated disk. You could actually feel the jelly out of alignment in the spine. The person was bent over and in great pain. The anti-inflammatory that had been taken in the morning had worn off and the person was desperate for healing or more pills. I noticed they were being prayed for and moved to assist . I used what I had learnt in the book about praying for healing and I asked the Holy Spirit for guidance in how to pray. This was the first time I had stepped out in church for a long time to pray for healing, hands on. The Holy Spirit encouraged me to pray for the spine to come into alignment and for every sinew, atom of their being, blood vessel and ligament to be blessed in the name of the Father, Jesus Christ His Son and the Holy Spirit. I blessed all the work of their hands, their going out and their coming in, their ministry for the Lord and every other blessing that came to mind during the prayer. During the time I prayed, I felt the really strong heat in my right hand over the spine. The person could not feel the heat when I told them what I was sensing. But I felt reassured that the blessing was working.
Two weeks later the person came and told me they had been healed that Sunday and that they were really grateful for the healing. They had felt no immediate improvement or the heat I had felt during the prayer. But in just 4 hours they realised they had been completely healed and were pain free, and have not taken any medication since. I was praising God that I had stepped out in faith and blessed them back to health. I constantly use the phrase “in the name of Father, Jesus Christ His Son the the Holy Spirit” to reinforce to the person I am praying for that it is not me. I am only stepping out in faith for them.
The second healing I have had is for myself. I blessed my own skin as I have had for at least 4 years three lesions on my back that were ugly but not cancerous and the doctor would not remove them. I blessed my skin back to health for several nights and checked the following night to see if they were gone. I was expecting them to disappear. I could not reach them myself to scratch them off to see if they would come off and my husband refused to do anything to them either. They appeared to be growing in size height-wise, and looked worse to me. My daughter was putting sunscreen on my back and she said to me, "I feel like I want to scratch at these growths on your back is that okay?" I told her to go ahead and although she has very short fingernails the first one just popped off in her hand. She went ahead and removed the other two as well. The wonderful thing for me is there is no scarring from them and I no longer have to see them in a place I cannot reach.
My daughter and son-in-law prayed the blessing of the Father over their children the other night and one of the boys just sobbed the whole way through, I believe the prayer will be a turning point for his life.
Richard I want to bless you in everything you put your hand to, thank you for your little book, I think the best thing about your book is it is condensed and easy to understand and apply; anyone can read it and be encouraged.
Thank you so much for your faithfulness to God and all the sharing you do, as well at Promise Keepers.

Wound Healed Over Three Days
I am going to share a snapshot of what happened after I read Richard Brunton’s book "The Awesome Power of Blessing"
I have now been under specialist care for 20 years, so I was really drawn to the part about blessing our bodies. I immediately launched into praying a blessing on various parts of my body, and felt a marked improvement. I have a specialist visit every six months and he has been amazed at my progress. In his career as an endocrinologist he has seen only 2 people make it to the level of healing I have achieved.
At the height of my feel-good mode, I decided to do some much needed gardening, and it was there I became slightly "undone”. I snagged my thumb and a huge part of my nail came away. I quickly exited the garden and showered. By now my thumb was raw and angry. I placed it into my other hand and thanked it for functioning so well up until now. God reminded me of what this small unassuming part of my body had done – it had cared for people, baked for charities, planted trees, played instruments and sports. Then like a wellspring, I uttered “Thumb may you be blessed in your God-given capability to heal; may this pain dull and infection leave. May my good hand become that of Christ. I then felt an intense heat from my good hand flood the wounded one, and even a slight pulse, which frightened me and I let go and thought "Whoa, what was that???" Then I felt God say, “Would you just trust me?”
I did, I prayed on the next day, then the third day I took a look at it and it was healed, so thank you Richard for the true gift in your book. It has been such a privilege to meet you in person, I have carried your book through many hospital visits and it continues to be a source of great encouragement.

Prayed for Freedom from Nicotene Addiction
I would like to give you a personal family testimony that took place last November 2016, on the power of blessing from your book.
Our son ( a pre-Christian) has been smoking for 10+years, a huge cost to the family and he keeps saying he wants to quit. After reading your book I started blessing him with freedom from nicotene addiction. After a few weeks he was going through a bit of financial stress and he phoned me to say he really wanted to stop smoking, especially as now his two children were 'at him' to quit. I prayed with him over the phone that God would give him the strength and willpower to stop, then blessed him with the freedom from nicotine addiction!!
Anyway, a few days later he phoned again to say he had stopped smoking that night and hadn’t wanted a cigarette since. Amen, thank you Lord.

Situations Changed Simply by Blessing
Could I possibly order a further 40 of your books? They have been so popular and there are still many people I would like to give them to.
I have had so many great testimonies from the people I have given the books to! Some of the people I know well have shared with me how they have been released from bitterness towards others, as they have started to bless them and the situations.
Also I thought you may like to know, that several home groups in ….. are now studying your book and working through it each week, which they are really enjoying. I have already had two meetings where I was invited to speak, and where I was able to share about the Power of Blessing and after gave each person a copy of your book.
It has been so amazing and I so appreciate your wonderful teaching in the book, it is very powerful. When I received the first copy of your book and read it, I began speaking blessing over my daughter who had a terrible skin condition, and since that time, her skin has been amazing!
I hope all of this really encourages and blesses you.

Blessing My Immune System
After blessing my immune system and [receiving] prayer, (including yours), my blood factors are considerably improved.
In fact, during a trip to hospital this week, I had a full blood count, and both the neutrophils [type of white blood cell that helps heal damaged tissue] and WBC [white blood cell count] were 3 times the previous levels.
According to my sister, this not only puts them well into the normal range, but most importantly it shows that my blood is doing exactly what it was designed to do – fight infection - P T L

Large Mass on Adrenal Gland Gone
Richard attached is my personal testimony for you to read and share as you feel led. May it release even more encouragement, favour and understanding to this amazing gift the Lord has put in our hands 'the power of blessing'. May it be a launching place for a stream of miracles even more incredible than mine. Thank you Richard for being a forward runner and being obedient to write this simple book which has changed my life forever.
Last year I went for a ultra-sound scan for a pain in my groan/testicle. The specialist could not find anything wrong but had a thought to check my kidneys. On doing this she saw a large mass on my adrenal gland. I was then called in by my doctor and sent to a specialist at North Shore Hospital. The specialist said there was a chance it could be cancer. In situations with any mass over 4cm it is compulsory to operate and remove it, regardless if it is cancer or not. In my case the mass measured 6cm. My wife said thank you but we do not accept that and I agreed.
As a man devoted to prayer, an itinerant pastor and a man of faith. I have had the wonderful privilege of seeing incredible signs and wonders of the Lord's power in amazing ways. But it is somehow different when it is me in that place or valley of despair, facing a personal giant.
It was then that I found a little book called, "The Awesome Power of Blessing" by Richard Brunton. As I remember, I opened and read just a small section about the power of blessing, my first thought was,"This will do." I started blessing my adrenal gland and researched its function. I continued to bless my adrenal gland every morning as well as the hormones it released and what it was meant to be doing in my body.
Month by month, test by test the journey continued. Believe you me when I say I had some ups and downs on this road. We finally got a follow-up appointment to meet the specialist at North Shore Hospital again. I remember the morning well as we had to wait for ages, the doctor was running very late. In fact, we allowed a man to go in front of us as he had another appointment that he was about to miss.
Then it was my turn, the doctor invited us into her little room and said, "Well, I only have good news for you”! She sat down read her notes and continued, “ I am so sorry for wasting your time. All the scans and reports have come back and they simply can not find it! " We shared with the the doctor our belief in a God who can do miracle like this. Praise the Lord for all he has done! For this incredible miracle!
Since then we have had many opportunities to share this testimony and see the Lord move even more! For example, a lady getting full movement as well as pain completely leaving her body after a few simple prayers. The fascinating thing about this healing /miracle was that her ankle, prior to this point, was in continuous pain because she had very little movement due to the metal rod and 4 pins in her joint. The Lord restored the movement and took the pain completely away. Wow, the God we serve is amazing!
In conclusion, the power of blessing works! Thank you Lord for my miracle and my healing. Big thank you to Richard for writing a prophetic word that has the power to heal and set people free. Thank you for your obedience to write it and release it in the way you have done! I pray for more revelation and wisdom to come from the Father through you to see even more of our brothers and sister set free in Jesus Name, Amen!

Blessing Before Surgery
Last Saturday we anointed and blessed a non-Christian friend who was due to go into hospital for an operation on Tuesday. The doctor and nurses said the operation went better than they had ever seen for that surgery, it finished half an hour sooner than normal and the wounds are healing extremely fast.
Praise the Lord. The power of blessing works!
