Day Eight (Part Two), Monday, April 23, 2007
Tuesday, April 24, 2007 We have been having a most amazing time. Yesterday we went to pray for the people at church and when we arrived there there were so many. We all got to pray for people and it was such a blessing. One fellow was shaking so badly and wanted us to pray for his arm as he had lost much the use of it. Tam and I prayed for him and by the time we were done it wasn't shaking any more and he could lift it as high as his shoulder. Praise God! It is so cool because this isn't about what we can do at all. It is simply what Jesus wants to do.
One little boy was six years old and needed prayer to grow. He was tiny. I thought he looked about three. Any way, he was quite a fidgety boy and wiggly but when we started praying for him he just went over backwards and lay there not moving an eyelid. Tammy and I just looked at each other in amazement!
Today at prayer (I know I'm really just covering yesterday but needed to tell this) a lady wanted prayer and I prayed for her. Then she told me she wanted to have her daughter feel the power of God. I told her that God wanted to use her hands and that she should pray for her daughter. She left and a few moments later interrupted me while I was praying for someone else; her hands became so hot after I had prayed for them. She had tears in her eyes and it was great to see her believing and knowing that God can use her, because its not about us, it is about who God is.
On another note, we love everyone and we'll be so spoiled coming home and being to order what ever we want on a menu. Here, we go in to a restaurant and say,
"I'd like pizza."
The waiter looks at us and shakes his head. "No pizza."
So we say. "Pasta,"
"No pasta, " then he points out the limited amounts of choices on the menu.
For breakfast, on a menu that has about 20 choices, we usually get 'omelet'. They just don't have the food, I guess. They are so nice though. The people are just about as sweet as you can imagine.
Praying for everyone was so humbling. I doubt that I'll ever be the same again. At least I hope not. I know that I know that I know that I know that God wants to move in power and signs and wonders to confirm His word. And I know that God wants to empower everyone: young , old, weak, shy, as long as we submit to Him I know that He wants to move through us.
Well, take care and we miss you all.
Love in Christ,
Your team,
