South Asia - Field Update: HEALING Before, During, and After!
We just returned from the service minutes ago and what a night it was! When we showed up, there was a service taking place from another religion on the property next to our field. People had gathered, but the noise coming from their meeting was blaring over the loudspeaker. Joshua and I decided to just walk into the crowd and start praying for people as our team was clearly waiting for this to finish.
Within seconds dozens of people gathered around each of us and miracles started breaking out to the glory of God. At least 3 people were healed of blind eyes or blurred vision, 2 people of deaf ears, 4 people with leg issues, multiple people with shoulder injuries received mobility, and someone with a tumor in their side had it dissolve. This all took place prior to the service even starting! As the crowd started to form, the service kicked off and we went into a time of worship prior to the preaching.
We started the preaching full of faith after we had already witnessed! My heart was burdened by the deception that so many were in from the religious practices they followed. I felt demonic forces at work as the spirit of religion was doing its best to keep the truth from hitting their ears. I hammered away with the truth in love at God’s plan for their lives through Jesus Christ!
When I gave the call for salvation there was an enormous response. Many rushed forward and some were even running to the front! I led them into a prayer for salvation and then we began to pray for healing and deliverance. We heard even more wonderful miracles including:
A man who was paralyzed began to move his left arm for the first time in 8 years! He demonstrated the healing to the delight of the crowd.
A woman with blurry vision began to see clearly and confirmed it on the platform.
A woman with gall bladder issues for 30 years testified of her healing.
A man with a shoulder issue received his healing and was pretty happy to be able to move for the first time in years.
A woman who was unable to lift her arm for a year demonstrated a shoulder healing and began doing a windmill on the platform.
And so much more!
This outbreak of healing was special indeed. As I felt the religious spirit throughout the night trying to blind the eyes of people from seeing the truth of the Gospel from the lens of their Hindu and Muslim backgrounds, this demonstration of power was exactly what scripture says will happen when the Gospel is preached! Hallelujah! God is so good! He is faithful!
We still have a final crusade night to come, and we’d like to ask for your continued prayers. Your prayers matter! We’ve been able to provide discipleship books and t-shirts to new converts, and to bless the participating churches. In addition, your donations have allowed us to bless the lead pastor who is directing our crusade with a brand-new keyboard for his church that is being used for the crusade as well! Your giving matters!
