INFLUENTIAL CHURCH–TV MINISTRY–CATCHES FIRE!
A team of 15, along with Carol and me, poured into this very influential church 3 nights and 1 morning of “miracle meetings.” Our hope is always that “they get what we’re trying to leave behind.” After we left to go on to the other churches, we learned the regular Sunday night service had been turned over to a young preacher they are grooming–the one I had been pouring into and who had been watching intently all I did. He told me later he had preached on healing and then went for it. He had them stand, prayed over them and many were healed. I asked him if he had ever done this before. “No, I just did what I saw you do.” Then the pastors prayed for the sick after the service, and 3 who came to him were all healed. And even better–he talked to his sister earlier in the day. She’s in the US, was at a hospital because of an abscessed tooth, lots of swelling and pain. He prayed over the phone, declared healing and she said “If I’m healed, I’m going home.” That night she called him back to say there was no swelling or pain!! The electronic airwaves are like the handkerchiefs of Paul’s days. And if that’s not enough, they told us they were streaming the meetings on the internet. One of our team members had her husband watching back in Illinois. As he watched, all his back pain left! C’mon!!
HEALING OF STROKE VICTIM CAPS OFF MISSIONS TRIP
The older man had a stroke three months before. He couldn’t communicate well and the right side of the body was partly paralyzed. But the “Glory” came down and his daughter and son-in-law both testified alongside him “Everything was different.” He was healed, with full mobility and communication skills back!! He even ran for us.
METAL DISAPPEARS IN BAPTIST PASTOR!
A Baptist Pastor with metal in his back came to the meetings, and you could tell this was all new to him. His mobility was so restricted he couldn’t even begin to bend backwards, and when he bent even the slightest forward, he was immediately in pain. I had told the story of the young man in our recent “Angels & Miracles” Conference in Casper, WY being healed with metal in his back, and he took hold of the testimony. After hearing the Lord say in my spirit “dip him 7 times,” I kept praying for him and each time he got back up, he had less pain and more mobility. He kept coming back to the meetings for the next several days, completely healed — and with more mobility!!
TEAM MEMBER “CATCHES IT”
To cap it all off, one of our team members heard how I was inspired and challenged when I heard Randy Clark tell about his conversation with Bill Johnson about people’s bodies being healed and mobility returning, even when they had metal in them. Just as he had decided to “go for it,” I did too. It worked for this team member too. He said “If Bill Johnson and Randy Clark and Bill Dew can see this happen, so can I.” Sure enough, a person walked up with pain, limited mobility, and metal. He believed for it, and the person walked away totally pain free and full mobility restored!! Now, that’s a great mission trip.
