It Begins

A few posts ago, I wrote about a cab driver that God healed after I prayed for him. The next day, on my way to work, the cab driver (a different one) said, "Sir, I have question I ask of you. My back has been in some pain for quite long time..."

He had heard from Baghat how Jesus healed his wrist, and he wanted to know if I would ask Jesus to heal his back. He was driving down a hill and crashed his car back in May. Since then, he had spent 25,000 rupees (about $500) - which is A LOT of money here - but still had no comfort. When we reached our destination, I had him get out of the car and I prayed for him. I had to pray about 5 times, but Jesus knocked it completely out.

I told him, "It was Jesus! It was Jesus! He loves you." It's difficult to say a whole lot more because of the language barrier sometimes.

He was blessed. Jesus is Lord!

Since then, I've also prayed for several of the hotel staff who had various back problems. Everyone's on their feet all the time here, so it's a common thing. Jesus has healed them all, because He loves them all. And I told them that.

In the future, I'm hoping to find a hotel manager to pray for. That would open some doors... God wants to take this place more than I do, so I've got my eyes peeled :)

Thank You Jesus for the privilege of co-laboring with You to bring the Kingdom. Let's take back the land for the Kingdom!

Bless you.

God grows house keeper's leg out!

Today, housekeeping came by the hotel room to clean. After the two guys were done, I asked if either of them had any pain or sickness in their bodies. One of them said they had back pain.

I asked one of them to sit down, I checked his legs, and one was short. Then, like a blast from the past, God grew it out. I told him that it was Jesus, and that Jesus loved him. There wasn't much time to talk, and they didn't speak very good english. But I kept saying, "Jesus, it was Jesus."

On the way out, one of the men told me that if anyone else had back pain they would send them to Ashley and I. I told them to send us anyone who has ANY pain or sickness. They walked away touched by the Master.

The devil's got nothing, and Jesus is supreme! Thank You Lord!

Great article a friend wrote:

"I felt sorry that they had to go through all this and I felt a bit embarrassed for myself, but I know that ultimately it’s about obedience. I didn’t see any result then and obviously I was terribly disappointed but I still hold on to God’s Word for His Word is above my experiences. If there’s a failure, it’s not with God, but with me. But when I say this, I am not condemning myself. I am secure in God’s love enough to know that His love never leaves me when I fail."

Cab Driver's Wrist Healed!

During my time in India, I will be staying at the Park Plaza hotel. Every day, I commute to work via hotel cab drivers. Since this is going on my fourth month in India this year, Ashley and I have been able to build relationships with various hotel staff.

Yesterday, on my way to work, Baghat (pronounced Bug-ot), my cab driver, said to me, "Sir, last time you here, you blessed me for better job. But you also ask me if I had pain. Sir, I did not have pain then, but I do now." Baghat showed me his wrist. It was all bandaged up.

Baghat didn't know why there was pain, but I think it may have been some form of tendonitis. He had it X-rayed, but the bones looked fine. He told me it had been hurting him off and on for about two years.

At any rate, I told him Jesus would knock that out no problem because Jesus loves him. When we got to the office, I prayed twice and the pain was totally gone. "This is incredible, sir!" Baghat said.

Immediately after Jesus healed his wrist, he asked me to come to his home and pray for his child. His baby has had a fever off and on for two months, and keeps waking up with congestion and some other things.

God is opening doors! Man, He's just so awesome! Thank You, Papa!

I am a Spirit… How to have “Great” Faith

"Jesus equated understanding the principle of authority, to having 'great faith.' "

Remember, you're already blessed! (Eph 1:3)

Cab Driver's Leg Grows Out

I called a cab to take Ashley and I to the airport today. During the ride, it came out in conversation that the driver had arthritis in his wrist, and back problems. At the airport, we prayed for his wrist, however, there was no way to check it -- he wasn't in any pain or anything. After that, he sat on top of his car and we checked his legs. One was short and God grew it out.

God will touch anybody, anytime, anywhere, because God is LOVE. Love doesn't stop!

Come on guys! Let's do this thing! Let's stop playing around and change the world.

How do you know who to pray for?

Touch as many as you can in the time that you have.

Healings at the Plaza

Last Sunday, I went up to the Country Club Plaza in KC with JD to sell some bracelets and pray for people. The bracelets were to raise money for Threads of Hope and JD's mission trip with the World Race.

We set up a table and hung a sign on the front. On one side, it said "Bracelets, $2," on the other side it said, "FREE SPIRITUAL CLEANSING."

Almost immediately, one couple saw the spiritual cleansing side and came over to ask about it. We got to pray for the man who dealt with self pity and low self-esteem issues, and he said he felt at peace and comforted. I shared the gospel with them, but they weren't ready for Jesus.

A group of 5-6 ladies approached us to buy bracelets. When they found out it was to support mission work, they started to tell us about all these other missions organizations they were connected to. One lady, Beth, said her foot her. We prayed for her and the pain got crushed by Jesus. Then they all prayed for us and we got totally rocked.

After that, we moved to a different location. On the way over, a homeless guy saw us carrying the sign. He asked about the spiritual cleansing stuff, and said he heard we had been up on the plaza. He wanted prayer for his neck and shoulder. We prayed for his neck, and Jesus took the pain away. His shoulder only had about 10% mobility, the skin was numb, and it hurt terribly when he tried to move it. We spent about 20 minutes praying for his shoulder, and he got about 90% of the mobility back, the pain went away, and his numbness was healed. Thank You Jesus! He's good ALL the time!

After that, we found out he had horrible back pain so we prayed and God grew his leg out. We told him that Jesus loved him and that he needed to turn away from his sins.

When we reached the other spot we were going to set up, a group of kids approached us because they saw my Thursday t-shirt (a band). As we were talking with them, a group of 5-6 other kids walked up because they saw our free spiritual cleansing sign. In all, we had about 8-9 kids around us. They were asking what spiritual cleansing was, and I kind of fumbled through an answer.

I found out that one of them had back pain, so I had him sit down, and sure enough, a leg was short. I had his friends hold the leg, and God grew it out. They were blown away. Laughing at what had just happened, one kid goes, "I want to be taller!" I said, "Okay, sit down."

I commanded his legs to grow in Jesus Name', and one at a time they came out. Now everyone was really going crazy. They were so amazed at the power of Jesus. One of the kids said his ribs hurt. I prayed real fast, and the pain went away. Then another came forward and said he had torn his ACL a while back, but it wasn't completely better yet. I prayed, and much of the cracking and popping in his knee went away (but not all of it). He said it felt really warm. When he stood, he said on a scale of 1 - 10 (10 being normal), he was at about a 6 -7 before and was now at a 8.5 or 9. As we stood talking, the warmth continued in his knee. I never got to follow up with him to see if it got 100% better.

After that, one of the other kids asked if I could pray for his alcoholism. I told him that Jesus could set him free from anything. I put my hands on his chest and told him he'd feel something lift off of him. I commanded the addiction to go in Jesus' Name, and asked him what was going on. He said that he felt lighter all of the sudden, and he could breath easier. He felt and peace and comforted. Jesus is so amazing! This is the real deal guys!

After that, 4 - 5 girls came up to us. JD started to prophecy over them. On the first girl, he hit a few words spot-on. The rest of the girls got in a line, "Me next, me next!" they said. JD tore it up, and God touched their hearts.

As JD was prophesying over the girls, another group came up. One of the women of that group said she "heard" we were ministering to people and she was joining her spirit with JD's as he prophesied.

After the girls JD was prophesying too left, we talked to the other group. After a few minutes, one of the girls that left came back, and asked JD if he heard anything else. When she did this, the woman from the other group jumped right in and started sharing the love of God and the good news of Jesus Christ. She lead the girl to Jesus right there on the spot. The girl said she felt really relieved. Praise God!

After that, we asked how the woman "heard" we were ministering. She said that she was in her car, and felt the Lord said, "Look at those guys over there. Watch them." After a few minutes, the Lord said to her, "They're ministering."

How baller is that?!

Later, there were a large group of girls we got to pray over,... they were in their first year of college.

Then a group of super-cool guys came by. I prayed for one for anxiety and depression, he said he felt at peace, lighter, and much better. Then I prayed for another guy, named Regg (super cool kid), that he would do well at his soccer tryouts. He said that he prayed that morning, but that he wasn't sure if God heard him. After I prayed, he said he felt something come over his entire body. Like he had goosebumps but he didn't. I asked the Lord to increase it, and when I did, he said all of the feeling went to his ears.

I thought that maybe this was prophetic, in a sense. Through talking with him, I found out that he was a really good listener, and that he understood people well. Then it dawned on me, he said he wasn't sure if God "heard" him. Perhaps Holy Spirit was manifesting on his ears to communicate to him that He always hears? I don't know. Whatever the case, Holy Spirit You're amazing and all the glory belongs to You!

Wow, it was an amazing day. I don't even remember everything that happened. I know that there were some more legs that we saw grow out and some other stuff.

This is the Kingdom of God, guys. Get in the game. We're meant to dish out God-encounters everywhere we go. Don't wait for revival, BE REVIVAL! Jesus Christ loves you. Stop sinning, stop being apathetic and lethargic, stop being disobedient, and start being obedient. Jesus lives inside of you. You're ready, you're equipped! Go smash hell and advance the Kingdom.

Jesus, I pray for all who read this. Put a fire in their hearts, I ask. Let their hearts burn and get hot, even now, and show them that You want to take them so much deeper. Thank You for your love, and Your amazing, amazing fellowship. I give you all the glory. Thank YOU JESUS! Amen.

This Week

Last Tuesday, we prayed for a lady and God grew her leg out. It was awesome!

I talked to the coworker I wrote about in a previous post again. I didn't know this, but he said that his shoulder had been hurting for a really long time. He had very limited mobility, and was really concerned it was going to give out while he working out or something. After praying for him, he said it was 90% better. I checked this week, and he said it was 98% better. I prayed again to finish it off.

Today, I went out for quite a few hours to pray for folks. I got turned down a bajillion times. I did, however, get to pray for a few people. One couple just wanted some good fortune. I prayed for him and definitely sensed he was facing a time of hardship after hardship, and shared this with him. He agreed. I prayed for God to give him a resilient heart, and he was blessed. I prayed for two other guys on a work break. They didn't need prayer for anything in particular, so I just asked God to bless them. They were blessed.

Later, I saw a lady with a medical boot on her leg. I asked what happened, and she explained her nerves got messed up. I prayed for her two or three times, but there was no change.

Ran into 4 - 5 girls and one of them said she had lower back pain. She even said that a doctor told her one was shorter than the other. I had another girl help me check her legs (the girl held the legs), and I had them tell me which was short. One was about an inch short. Then I put my finger on her shoulder and commanded the leg to grow. I waited for a few seconds, and checked, and the leg had grown out. God is good! The girls, however, didn't see it grow out! And the girl I prayed for didn't feel anything. I couldn't believe it! One second it was an inch short, the next the legs were even, and nobody saw it grow! Blah.

After that I loved on a homeless man for a while. He told me about his life story, how his hips got messed up, and some other things. I gave him some money and left. He didn't want prayer, but he was blessed.

Then I saw a man with a knee brace on. I asked what happened, and he said he broke his kneecap. I prayed for him, and asked him to check it. He was surprised and said it felt better. On a scale of 1 - 10, he said before it was a 6-7 and was down to a 3-4. I prayed again, and he said it got even better. However, he didn't let me go on. It was weird,... he said that he had been drinking and I think he just got confused when I asked him to pray again. It was cool though, God rocks the house and is always faithful!

Then I went and talked to another homeless man, Billie-Ray, from a previous post. He was doing a lot better since the last time I saw him. I talked to him for a while and it was a really cool time.

All of that took about 3-4 hours in the HEAT. I was worn out.

Never-the-less, God rocks. Guys, repent of your sins and accept Jesus as Lord. You need Him. He loves you, wants you, and thinks you're amazing. He can transfer you from a kingdom of darkness, to the kingdom of Light. Jesus can set you free and give you joy.

Bless you.

Never Give Up
