Yesterday, Bishop T.D. Jakes had a testimony for his church family… on the Potter’s House livestream, he shared what happened after he suffered a medical emergency during a sermon the week before.
In his message to members of his megachurch in Dallas, Jakes asked the congregation to “praise God that we’re not planning a funeral” and revealed that he underwent emergency surgery after the incident on November 24th. In the video of that sermon, you can see him lower his microphone and shake in his seat before people rushed to his aid.
Bishop Jakes is resting and recovering, following doctor’s orders and is good spirits. He didn’t share details of his diagnosis but said that he’s “thankful he did not have a stroke,” and that we are looking at a miracle and an “event (that) could’ve been fatal if it weren’t for God’s intervention.”
