His parents came to a local believer named Dasarath urgently pleading for help for their son who had just poisoned himself and was about to die. They took him to hospital and as the doctor announced there was nothing he could do the parents began to cry openly. Dasarath told the story of Elijah from 1 Kings 17 where it tells how the prophet healed the widow's son, bringing him back to life. The parents were grieving; the police had come to file their report of the death. Even though the dead body was lying there Dasarath and those with him prayed that God would raise the man up too, like in the story. After 60 hours the man came back to life and was totally recovered. All the people saw this and knew he had been healed by God after we prayed. Many people came to the Lord and started to attend Dasarath's church thereafter.
