Traveling further into the forest, we drove through a shallow river and wound through the hills until we reached a small village. Upon arrival, an eager crowd greeted us with Indian worship songs. Our entire team greeted our new friends and shared short words of encouragement. Led by the Spirit, Pastor Mary Pat explained God’s plan for salvation and 15 people prayed to receive Jesus as their Lord. Pastor Bill then preached a powerful message regarding the many names of Jesus and the promises associated with each name. As the healing prayer went out, many testified of immediate freedom from back pains, stomach pains, and head pains. Others testified to healed lungs and necks! One older lady requested prayer for her hips, knees, and legs as she was struggling with a lot of arthritic pain. After our team prayed for her, her pain disappeared and she was able to move up and down without pain!
A young Hindu couple brought their 7 year-old child to the front for prayer. The child had been suffering from what appeared to be cerebral palsy since birth, with stunted growth he was the size of a toddler. His parents had taken him to their Hindu temple with hopes that their goddess’s charms and fetishes would bring healing, but to no avail. The couple received Jesus, renounced their Hindu faith, and removed the charms and fetishes from the child. The child, who had been very distressed, became peaceful in the arms of Pastor Mary Pat and we are trusting the Lord for complete healing of this precious little one. Later on, Michelle and Theresa prayed with the couple to receive the Baptism in the Holy Spirit. What a powerful time in the Lord’s presence!
