032 | The Miracle in the Waiting: Victoria Chapin's Rare Cancer Healing and the Faith That Won (Part II)

Hi there, friend! What if the miracle you were waiting for was happening inside you the whole time—and God was just waiting for the right moment to reveal it? If you haven't yet heard Part I of Victoria Chapin's story, go back and start there—because what unfolds in this episode is the kind of conclusion that makes you catch your breath and worship at the same time. When we left Victoria, she had just done the unthinkable: canceled a surgery for a rare, aggressive lung cancer called spindle cell neoplasm—a cancer that chemo and radiation couldn't touch and whose average survival post-diagnosis was just 11 months. She had done it face-down on her floor, guided by a vision of the woman who touched the hem of Jesus' cloak, and a word from the Holy Spirit: I want you to have that kind of faith. In this conclusion, I sit back in awe as Victoria walks us through nearly two years of active waiting—changing her diet, deepening her prayer life, fasting, clinging to Exodus 15:26, and going on a God-led forgiveness journey that required her to reach out to the most toxic people in her life. She shares how God weaved her daughter's numbers—the 15th and the 26th—into the very scripture that became her healing anchor. She talks about the moment she finally found peace about surgery, and the Cleveland Clinic surgeon who had actually treated this rare cancer before and could remove the tumor without cutting through her ribs. And then—the post-surgery biopsy results that left everyone speechless: no cancer. Was she healed before the surgery even took place? Victoria believes so. And so do I. 🔑 Key Takeaways Waiting Is Not Passive—It's Active Faith. Victoria prayed, fasted, changed her lifestyle, and stood on scripture for nearly two years. Isaiah 40:31 wasn't just a verse—it was her daily reality. Forgiveness Is Part of Healing. God led Victoria to identify unresolved bitterness and walk in obedience—even when the response from those she forgave wasn't what she hoped. Her obedience was between her and God alone. God Uses the Journey to Reach People We'd Never Otherwise Meet. The scans, the surgeries, the waiting rooms—they were all divine appointments in disguise. Scripture Must Move from Your Head to Your Heart. The turning point in Victoria's faith wasn't knowing what the Word said. It was believing that every healing promise was written for her. God Is Never, Ever Late. No matter what a doctor's timeline says, He will never miss a moment. Contentment in Christ is the holy ground where pain and His faithfulness meet. 🌿 Key Themes Miraculous Healing • Rare Cancer Testimony • Active Waiting in Faith • Forgiveness Journey • Spiritual Warfare • God's Perfect Timing • Healing Scriptures • Contentment in Christ • Philippians 4:13 • Exodus 15:26 • The Waymaker • Christian Cancer Story • Trusting God's Story • The Well Conference for Creatives • Do Life to the Full Ministries 🤍 Who Will Benefit From This Episode Anyone facing a frightening medical diagnosis and wondering whether to trust God or follow the doctors' timeline Believers who need permission to wait—actively—on God's answer Listeners who struggle with unforgiveness and its connection to physical and spiritual health Those who know scripture in their mind but are wrestling to believe it for themselves Anyone who needs a front-row seat to a modern-day miracle to reignite their own faith Victoria told me that her daughter once said, at just five years old, "I like that I have tumors—because we get to tell people about Jesus because of my tumors." And God whispered the same thing to Victoria during her own battle: You get to tell people about Jesus because of yours, too. Friend, you don't get to write the story. But you do get to trust the Author. Until next time… keep waiting actively, keep believing boldly, and never let go of the hem.</
