Prophet Gondwe attacked after healing boy of diabetes: Atheists say ‘God does not heal, science does’
A verbal war has ensued between a horde of non-believers and Prophet Patson Gondwe of Good News Ministries after he announced that, through prayer, a 12-year old boy who had high degree diabetes is now free from the ailment.
Gondwe, through his Facebook page, Prophet P. Gondwe Ministries, said Evance Penyani from Blantyre was diagnosed with high level diabetes that was pegged by medical practitioners to be at 589MG/DL.
“As such he was supposed to be injecting himself with insulin every 12 hours. When tested, sugar would always be at 589mg/dl or above,” wrote Gondwe.
He added: “He was then restricted to [take] some meals he enjoyed as a child. He was no longer allowed to eat meat, anything with fats of drink anything with sugar.”
According to Prophet Gondwe, doctors told Evance’s parents that there was no way he was going to be healed.
Nyasa Times learnt that after Evance’s mother took him to Prophet P. Gondwe Ministries the boy was prayed for and is now normal.
“The sugar levels have now dropped from 589mg/dl to normal,” said Gondwe.
Evance’s mother also confirmed in a separate interview that his son is now fine.
“I can only thank the living God of Prophet Gondwe for healing my son,” she said.
But some non-believers, who are allegedly atheists that belong to the Association of Secular Humanism (ASH) in Malawi, rubbished the claim as false and wishful thinking.
Joram Nyirongo, who works as a medical doctor at Kamuzu Central Hospital, described the testimony as “nonsense.”
He wrote: “We must not teach lies. The greatest miracles are done in our hospitals using medical science. And it’s the best that the Lord has provided for His people as long as we inhabit these earthly bodies.”
And, another atheist, Richmond Mphande, said outright that “God doesn’t heal. Science and medicine does.”
He further argued: “If he can heal after prayer, he can as well just prevent the illness before it happens.”
But according to Nyasa Times’ investigation, there are a lot more of these testimonies that happen at Prophet Gondwe’s church in Dzenza of Area 25 in the capital Lilongwe.
Good News Ministries came into being after Prophet. P. Gondwe visited the SCOAN Nigeria following a battle with a terminal liver disease in 2014.
The sole purpose of his visit was to encounter the healing hand of Jesus Christ through Senior Prophet TB. Joshua.
However, upon his return from SCOAN the Lord spoke to him through a vision that he was destined to be in the ministry of Christ Jesus.
Prophet Gondwe was obedient to the voice of God Almighty to pursue his God-given mission and this gave rise to the birth of Good News Ministries in the year 2015.
The ministry begun in the district of Mchinji with three people.
The proliferation of Pentecostal Churches, especially of the prophecy-led ministries, has seen a series of bizarre rites commonly legitimated as ‘miracles’ some of which have elicited ridicule from both believers and non-believers.
Promising prosperity, miracle cures and life-changing experiences, Pentecostal religion is booming in Africa.

Fake Prophets who only pray on the poor. You heal somebody and want the whole world no about it? Why can’t you pray for rains in Malawi and everybody see it raining? That would be a miracle. #Christianityunderattack
If God or rather gods can do anything, why can’t an innocent newborn with downs syndrome be cured? Believing in any gods, including this manic, psychopathic , ignorant, sadist moronic yahwe / allah of the bible or the Quran respectively ( if u trully read these fantasy fiction with a sober mind and as a grown up person) is not only the worst form of self hypnosis mankind has ever known, but it makes you an imbecile. Seriously, if monkeys could read the bible / Quran, I am sure they would laugh at the garbage in there….please people wake up and smell the crap in front of you, stop pretending to be retards.Religions are an insult even to a monkey let alone a human being.
Poor Evance. Being betrayed by overzealous anti-science religionists.
(It has been suggested that one problem in the less educated societies, like ours, is that we take the teachings in the bible, literally rather than parables -which they are supposed to be.)
Some of these commentators seem to string an argument together, suggesting that they have been through post-secondary education. So, unless they never took a science course at all, it is hard to understand their beliefs of the “bible” over science. Do they believe in gravity, even though it is not visible, or ration of the earth, or that the earth is NOT the center of the “universe” contrary to the earlier belief of the Church?
How will they feel when Evance’s health deteriorates, because juvenile diabetes doesn’t simply go away (assuming the diagnosis was correct in the first place)? Many people die even from adult onset diabetes, all over the world, when medical practitioners” advice is ignored. And making light of juvenile diabetes? Crazy basi.
It is not an argument any more that life expectancy has improved over the last century because of advances in science: better nutrition, better sanitation (big one), improved medical knowledge and better health outcomes due to improved pharmaceutical sciences. Not due to God or some divine intervention. And really, any one arguing against this may as well invoke a “Reductio ad Hitlerum” stance: And that becomes the end of the discussion!
What i like most about our God is that HE is so democratic He doesn’t force pple to believe in what HE wants them to believe in. People are free to make choices like the choices that u Joram and ur many many friends have made. So pls don’t call us who believe in the healing power of God as fools becoz we too have made our choices. Our God heals and this boy Evans has been healed in Jesus name.
Those who say God can’t heal what

God is doing wonders in Malawi through his
servants including Prophet Gondwe. This is the
reason why Reinhard Bonke said he won’t come
back to Malawi chifukwa ndi dziko lopha
azitumiki a Mulungu.
Akulangani Mulungu masewera omanyoza atumiki a Mulungu mukuchitawo. Mudzimufunsa Chakulungwa adatsekula mmimba uja akunyoza choncho. Pano adasiya. Inenso mwatsala madzi amodzi Ngati kalingonda muone. Ndipo mulape chifukwa chigwa chothera anthu onyoza Mulungu ndi mfumu yoweruza ya chilungamo Yesu Khristu chayandikira. Musakazindikire muli ku Gehenna. There is no repentance in hell

God is still performing miracles in these days…never underestimate the power of the holy ghost. Never ever do that guys
Izi ndizimene akukuna ku Rwanda. So deceitful and people have no eyes to see the shrewdness that comes with such kind of prophesy. I wonder how people who are well learned can be deceived by this brain wash of the so called pastors. In Rwanda they want people to have a degree of theology before they can open churches and not just steal from people who are seeking for salvation which will never come their way with such deceitful prophets. Very soon in Malawi most of us will become pastors because it is an easy way of accumulating money without sweating for it. Go!! Go!! enrich them more when your children and relatives continue to languish in poverty and despair.
It is unbelievable, that Nyasatimes is publishing such rubbish. This Gondwe is the same story as with alle fake healers. Just remember “mchape” claiming healing AIDS. Such guys like Gondwe are a danger to the society being responsible for deaths of children with type I Diabetes in the future.. As long as Malawians believe in those healers, witchcraft etc. there will be no development in the country. Same with corruption. … Shame on Nyasatimes by reporting such nonsense it is promoting “no development”
Mr Joram Nyirongo please know that God is the only source of life. He still performs miracles. He has allowed man to enjoy the previlidge of knowing some of his ways through science. Mr Joram please do not worship science but God himself the almighty. If you accept Jesus today as Lord and savior of your life, you will just have made the greatest and most admirable decision of your life. Amen.
Scientist, they do try and error to find results but you can not compare your work with the hand of God.Chitsiru chimati kulibe mulungu so you can be a doctor but be a Chindire chakufikapo. Many people just because the are called doctors they think the are the best and above all, which is the spirit of pride only the humble can understand the hand of God.
If Science heals how come all the hospitals have morgues. Does Science know what actually happens after a person is dead. How come there’s no cure for terminal diseases like Cancer, HIV/AIDS etc.. and simple things like Malaria. Science has contributed a lot to the wellfare of the human race but should not be equated to the Power of God because Science uses what God uses to come up with what it can do including the very brain of the Scientist and his being. The Scientists are God’s creation. The product of His creative power. It is Him who imparts a small fraction of his wisdom to us to come up with what we claim to be our scientific throries. Otherwise without God there’s no knowledge.
But then the same can be asked about God – if he heals, how come we have people, who he loves so much, dying?
Don’ cheat us with your science. God was great,is great and will be great for ever.paja a science mumati kulibe Mulungu.inu anakulengani ndi ndani ?Mulungu amapanga zozizwitsa pa moyo was munthu.
Joram Nyirongo and Mphande, don’t tell the world that medicine or Science is 100% effective. We see lots of people dying amidst plenty of drugs and competent doctors. Every system has shortfalls. Just conduct a test on the kid and come back with feedback before you discredit our living God
I found out i had type 2. I had no idea what to do or how i was going to eat. i did know that i was very motivated not to take medication. Then I read a diabetes story (google ” How I freed myself from diabetes “) Eight weeks later i have lost 35 pounds and am not taking any medication and have a blood glucose reading that average 105
Went to that page – its all about selling a book. Nothing more!
And we claim that we are a God fearing nation?….. but refuse to accept His works (miracles)?😭😭😢..See us through Lord
Religion has failed Black people and its time to work up my brothers and sisters. Lets advance ourselves in science and technology otherwise will remain idiots forever.
best universities in the world were and are still religious institutions. American was founded on Biblical foundation and they proclaimed in God We Trust. Religion never made a white man poor. So don’t lie to us that the problem Africans are facing is because of religion. maybe that’s why you call yourself Msundu
The problem with you Msundu is because you look at religion instead of looking at GOD Almighty.. religion will not change anything rather Our GOD is the game changer , the problem solver, the healer .. so stop going for religion, go for GOD almighty my brother if you are a brother
What shall profit a man if he gains the whole world n loses his soul to hell?
Only when you go to Toyota Malawi thus where you will find spare parts for VX Prado and not CFAO.
Mr Joram Nyirongo, wait untill science makes a living man for you to heal. As for now the spare parts for a man like you, like Evance have not changed, Jesus Christ is still in possession of them. I tell you if you believe in Jesus Christ your creator you won’t luck anything
LET GOD BE GOD
Leave Toyota VX Prado for Toyota Malawi and Ford for CFAO.
A joram ndi anzanu a mphande si inu nomwe ma dotolo mmamulembera mwana ma insulin kufika pomadzibaya yekha? Mwana anasiya mpaka kupita ku school Ali pa training yozibaya yekha insulin. Bwanji osangomuitana mwanayu mumuyang’anenso ngati mupeze zija.mudalemba zija. That’s the only way to prove Gondwe wrong. Gondwe just prayed for him and told the mother of the boy to.go back to hospital where your fellow doctors who were treating him before confirmed his healing. Gondwe always advice patients to.confirm with their doctors first. You r next to receive your healing from PPG
how sad that a person who is able to write, in English, can be so ignorant to think that diabetes can be cured by a prayer. Where does one start
And so stupid for a person to think that English is a benchmark for Intelligence!!
I had a surgical operation recently, the medical doctor (surgeon) prayed through Jesus Christ before the operation and am here writing/ testifying in English so that all agents of satan should be ashamed.
Disclaimer!! much as I don’t clap hands for/ follow modern day ‘Prophets’ , I am already to glorify all works that are done in the mighty name of Jesus Christ!!!
How sad that a person who is able to write in English can be so ignorant to think that prayer has no power. … Where does one start
Mulungu akuyendereni mwapadela so u know ignorance / knowledge n Wisdom are different. N u only get Wisdom from God n Wisdom is much more greater than knowledge. U nid to encounter God to know the comment u just commented on is wiser than u reply. .
Once you know the truth the truth shall set you free… Jesus is the healer and he heals all manners of sicknesses.. Diabetes is not sparred.. we thank God of prophet P Gondwe for this boys Testimony..
in fact science doesn’t heal. there are so many incurable diseases out there which science can not cure so do not come here to boast about your half baked knowledge. People have lived on this plant well before your hospitals and the so called science existed. they used their own local knowledge and beliefs to live their lives. So do not attack people for what they believe. in
Mudzavomera mukadza chira inuyo. The only sad thing is that such critics are sick and yet they are against God’s work through His people.
“if He can heal after prayer,He can as well just prevent the illness before it happens’, this kind of argument is fallacious and unsound for it has wrongly denied the healing power of God by making an assumption that God is the very causer of the same which is not true.
DON’T MIND THESE SCOFFERS/NON BELIEVERS
PROVIDED THE BOY (OUR FUTURE LEADER IS HEALED !!)
I don’t know what type of expired weed these so called atheist smoked. Sorry for that.
There is no cure for diabetes and its one of the disease which is causing a lot of havoc than HIV. Now we have a real cure……..#PPG. Inu amene nthenda imeyi yakusawusani, tatiyeni tikumane Ku national healing and delivering crusade. Come pa 5 and 6 may, surprise the doctor who said you won’t cured or even walk again, matenda amene science yo yakanika come and meet the real doctor. Who is above all the doctors Master Jesus Christ
Even ma doctors a Lilongwe central hospital adaimika manja za Good News ministries and Prophet Gondwe.
Atheist don’t want you to be healed ndiye tikuti inu manvela vela adachitsa zolo pa ukwati.
Iwe devil nthawi yako yatha yoputsisa a Malawi.
“Pentecostal religion is booming in Africa.” Why? Too much poverty. People are looking for a quick solution to their problems, joblessness, childlessness, husbandlessness. There is no man praying for a woman, because women do not fall from the sky. You just have to follow the etiquette.
A fool says there is no God. Chitsilu chimati kulibe Mulungu.
Well said
Science is the answer; those of you advocating God and religion should read a little bit of History on your religion.
