A video that got posted to youtube is giving everybody a peek at the amazing miracle that occurred Friday Aug 27th 2010 in Mobile Alabama. (WATCH THE VIDEO)
Well known and loved singer and evangelist Delia Knox, wife of Bishop Levy Knox is walking again for the first time in 22 years as a result of prayer at a revival meeting being called the “Bay of the Holy Spirit” Revival held at the Mobile Convention Center.
It was on Christmas Day 1987 that Knox lost the use of her legs after a car she was a passenger in was struck by another vehicle driven by a drunken driver. But being confined to a wheel chair over 20+ years never dampened her zeal as a minister.
Her ministry has taken her to places throughout the United States, Africa, Honduras, Puerto Rico, Canada, the West Indies, Jamaica, Cayman Islands, Curacao, and the Bahamas. She has been seen via television and periodicals throughout the world. She has been featured on the 700 Club, CBN, TBN, CTS, BET, Cornerstone and other television networks, as well as heard on the radio throughout the country and abroad. Locally she serves as pastor of worship and the Fine Arts Department at the Living Word Christian Center founded by her husband Levy Knox.
As amazing as this event is, some are saying it is just one of many miracles that have taken place during the “Bay of the Holy Spirit” Revival – named such after the name originally given to the Mobile Bay, upon initial discovery by the Spanish, over two century’s ago.
Presiding over these meetings is Rev. John Kilpatrick, who gained notoriety as the pastor of what came to be known as the long-running Brownsville Revival at the Brownsville Assembly of God in Pensacola during the ‘90’s. Those meetings extended nightly for over five years, and attracted several million visitors from all over the world. He is now senior pastor of the Church of His Presence, which meets at the civic center in Daphne, Ala. The Bay of the Holy Spirit Revival on Friday was a larger-scale event held in Mobile.
Kilpatrick is reporting that the signs, wonders and miracles have more numerous at the Bay of the Holy Spirit meetings than at Brownsville, with the blind seeing, the deaf hearing and people being healed as they watched the services online.
"We have miracles taking place, we have souls being saved, the glory of God has moved back in like it did on Father's Day 1995," Kilpatrick told Charisma Magazine. (referring to the Brownsville Revival which started on Fathers Day ‘95)
So are miracles happening in Mobile? You can judge for yourself. Meetings are continuing and services at the “Bay of the Holy Spirit” Revival can be watched in streaming video available online during the meetings.

Nice of god to only wait 22 years to cure her.
He ( God) is an on time God and what I like about it He doesn't do things when we think He should BUT he is ALWAYS on time!! It's good to know that He is still working miracles...thank you Jesus!!!!
What makes you think this is a miracle?
To Galapagos Pete: you might have missed the fact that she had no feeling in her legs and was paralyzed from the waist-down since 1988, necessitating her to be wheelchair bound. She had never been able to walk assisted or not.
So, why would one think this is a miracle? Because Holy Scripture says to ask and it shall be given, it says that Jesus healed you, and that He is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow. In pure faith, they obeyed scripture and laid hands on Delia and prayed to God for her divine healing...and their prayers were answered. She got up and walked! That's a miracle.

Who says? Not her doctor(s); we haven't heard from them, and at this point I would want the opinion at someone at the Mayo clinic after they'd studied her medical history and examined her.

It hasn't been proved that anything was "given". How do *you* know it's true? How do *you* know she had no feeling in her legs?
"In pure faith, they obeyed scripture and laid hands on Delia and prayed to God for her divine healing...and their prayers were answered. She got up and walked! That's a miracle."
It is claimed to be a miracle, but I see no convincing evidence of anything miraculous.
And honestly, unless we have a sudden surge of people with severed spinal cords getting up out of their chairs - and at this point we don't even have *one*, despite what you may believe - I'm not seeing a miracle here; at best it is an isolated incident, but in all likelihood she simply had an injury that caused temporary, if prolonged, paralysis.
Why does god/jesus continue? to heal wheelchair bound people but totally ignores amputees?
What have ALL amputees done to deserve such displeasure. We truly still live in a delusion filled world.
Wow, Are peole blind and have lost their mind completely? She was paralized for 22 years and that is a fact that can't be denied, now she walks. There can't be more stupid people in the world to still ask for a doctor's report. It is the climex of stupidity in the world today.
I believe in healing, in the power of God, and in the Gifts of the Spirit, but I do NOT believe it is Christ-like to call people blind, insane and stupid. Statements like the one you just made are often the reason why people refuse to embrace Christ and his message.
