Powerful God

I wrote this about 2 weeks ago, but just haven't posted it yet.

We serve such a powerful God! Mallory arrived yesterday, and we kept hearing from the girl she sponsors that she would be going to town for holiday break. We decided to go and find the auntie, who she stays with, to see if she could hang around the village for a few extra days to spend time with Mallory. 

When we arrived at her house the auntie was bathing. When she came to join us she could hardly walk because her leg was hurting so badly. We asked her about it and she said for the past year the pain has come and gone, some months more intensely than others. She has gone to the hospital and they gave her some pills to take, but the pain hadn't left. She said she now thinks the pain has something to do with the witches because of the way it hasn't left for months. At this point I knew we had to pray over her. 

We asked if it would be ok if we would pray over her. We explained that God is so much more powerful than any witch and that if we called upon Him, He could heal her. She agreed and we spent time laying hands on her and praying. When we finished we asked if she had felt the pain move or leave her body. She said she had felt the pain move up her leg. This made me feel like it was something demonic, so I asked if we could pray again. She agreed. We prayed healing over her body, and the Lord healed her leg! It was amazing! Henry, who was translating for us asked her if she could stand up and make sure it really was feeling better. She did, and it seemed as though the pain had left! The Lord is SO powerful! We prayed and sealed the healing over her body and encouraged her that if satan ever tried to bring the pain back, to pray and ask God to take it away. 

Hopefully we can go back and find her this week. The Lord tells us in Luke 10 to go out and pray for the sick so that they can experience who He is. That is what we want. We want people to be able to experience the Lord. We don't want to go and dump a bunch of churchy knowledge on them and tell them to believe, we want them to truly experience His goodness and might! 


Praise the Lord with us as this lady experienced the healing power of Jesus!

  2. Good morning, how are you?

    My name is Emilio, I am a Spanish boy and I live in a town near to Madrid. I am a very interested person in knowing things so different as the culture, the way of life of the inhabitants of our planet, the fauna, the flora, and the landscapes of all the countries of the world etc. in summary, I am a person that enjoys travelling, learning and respecting people's diversity from all over the world.

    I would love to travel and meet in person all the aspects above mentioned, but unfortunately as this is very expensive and my purchasing power is quite small, so I devised a way to travel with the imagination in every corner of our planet. A few years ago I started a collection of used stamps because trough them, you can see pictures about fauna, flora, monuments, landscapes etc. from all the countries. As every day is more and more difficult to get stamps, some years ago I started a new collection in order to get traditional letters addressed to me in which my goal was to get at least 1 letter from each country in the world. This modest goal is feasible to reach in the most part of countries, but unfortunately, it is impossible to achieve in other various territories for several reasons, either because they are very small countries with very few population, either because they are countries at war, either because they are countries with extreme poverty or because for whatever reason the postal system is not functioning properly.

    For all this, I would ask you one small favour:
    Would you be so kind as to send me a letter by traditional mail from Zambia? I understand perfectly that you think that your blog is not the appropriate place to ask this, and even, is very probably that you ignore my letter, but I would call your attention to the difficulty involved in getting a letter from that country, and also I don’t know anyone neither where to write in Zambia in order to increase my collection. a letter for me is like a little souvenir, like if I have had visited that territory with my imagination and at same time, the arrival of the letters from a country is a sign of peace and normality and an original way to promote a country in the world. My postal address is the following one:

    Emilio Fernandez Esteban
    Calle Valencia, 39
    28902 Getafe (Madrid)
    Spain

    If you wish, you can visit my blog www.cartasenmibuzon.blogspot.com where you can see the pictures of all the letters that I have received from whole World.

    Finally, I would like to thank the attention given to this letter, and whether you can help me or not, I send my best wishes for peace, health and happiness for you, your family and all your dear beings.

    Yours Sincerely

    Emilio Fernandez
