Worship Nights

The past two Saturday's, we have held worship nights in the villages and God has been on the move! The first worship night was held in Sugar village. We spent the first portion of time singing and dancing with people from the village around a fire that was started in a central location. A mixture of Zambian and American songs were played as we worshipped with our whole bodies. We can't move quite like a Zambian but we tried! 

We then broke into a time of prayer African style. This means that everyone lifts their voices at the same time and we all cry out collectively to welcome God to move. We then offered people to come forward with specific prayer requests and we began to passionately pray for each need as the songs of praise continued. 

God worked in such a mighty way in Sugar village! One lady was completely healed of soreness in her back and shoulders. Another lady was healed from back pain and headaches. And another woman was partially healed of her foot pain. There was also a drunken lady who began to have demonic manifestations that threw her body around and tried to throw her into the fire. These demons were silenced and cast out and she returned to a right mind. 

We followed up with most of these people this week and we were able to hear some of the stories of healing. One lady shared how her night terrors have ceased since this worship night. But the devil is still at work trying to convince bystanders that what happened that night was actually satanic. So please pray for the kingdom of Jesus to continue to spread through Sugar village and that the seeds that were planting would grow and blossom.

This past Saturday we held a worship night at Stanley and Lumba's house in Singanga village. We had a much smaller group but the power of God was still present as we blessed this house and claimed it for Jesus. A few people from the surrounding houses joined us. One lady named Lizzy was present and she began to have demons manifest in her. She first became so weak almost to the point of passing out and then her body was thrown around violently. We prayed over her and were able to cast them out and she returned to a stable mind. And she was in church this morning testifying to the power of God over the evil attacks that have been bombarding her! 

Awesome things have been happening! Please pray for us as we continue to hold worship nights and call on God's authority to be present. Please also pray for this area that the devil would lose its grip and people would be set free as we take this area for Christ's kingdom. 

Thanks!
