Bishop T.D. Jakes has shared an inspiring testimony following a life-threatening health crisis that landed him in the ICU and required emergency surgery. The beloved megachurch leader credits divine intervention for his recovery, calling it nothing short of miraculous.
Appearing via video call to his congregation at The Potter’s House on Sunday, Jakes received a thunderous standing ovation. Addressing the crowd, he expressed gratitude for God’s mercy and acknowledged the significance of his survival, calling it “a miracle you’re looking at.”
The bishop revealed that his health scare occurred last week during a medical emergency that unfolded on stage. He was rushed to intensive care, where he underwent urgent surgery. While he did not disclose specific details about the condition or procedure, he emphasized the seriousness of the situation.
Currently, Jakes is focused on his recovery, following his doctor’s advice to ease back into his regular routine. He shared that the road ahead requires caution and patience but assured his followers he is determined to return stronger than ever.
Before ending his heartfelt message, Jakes delivered an important reminder: caregivers and leaders must prioritize their own well-being. “You can’t pour into others if you don’t take care of yourself,” he said, using his experience as a powerful example of the need for self-care.
