#60 God’s Not on Vacation

Highlights of Brandon trip:
The people in the Spanish Church there were very hungry for more of God! They were very grateful we were there and they were a real blessing to all of us!
We taught on Our identity in Jesus, Practical Guidelines for Street Ministry, and the 5 Love Languages to Communicate Love to Others, also preached on Ezekiel 37:1-14, “You are God’s Answer to the Dry Bones of Brandon!”.  Friday night:  Went for supper.  Later, out on the streets in downtown Brandon near a gas bar and hotel/bar/park.  A lady drove up in a small car.  Called her over; “Come over here and you’ll see a miracle.”  Turns out she was known by some in the church!  And she had level 8 pain in her right leg from the heel up.  After we prayed the pain went down to a 2.  Suddenly, she had to leave to take the car back to her friend. She was not completely healed, but spoke that it would be.
We also met an Aboriginal couple outside the bar.  A team member named Brian did his card tricks. They were blown away.  Ministered to the man and woman.  Woman began to cry and share her story of loss.  Hugged and loved on her.  Tried to lead her to the Lord.  She said no, she wasn’t ready, but understood God’s love.
Meanwhile Kevin and a group were in a park:  Blind eye/impaired vision healed as one of the Spanish church women put her hand on the eyes.  She was shocked as the woman was healed.  Saturday:  We broke into 5 teams with members of the church; some went to park, McDonald’s, the Mall, Downtown Brandon.
Healings:  Isabelle:  Young woman with her two friends in mall; pain in knees and could not touch toes/bend over; Level 6 at times.  Prayed.  Asked her to do something she couldn’t do before.  She bent over to touch toes and could put her hands on the floor with no pain.  All gone!  Led her to the Lord.  PTL!!  Her friend (Mia) was a Christian.  Asked for prayer for her mind because she was forgetful.  Met a family:  Dad, Mom, future daughter-in-law and her young daughter.  Man had condition that he had lost his middle toe.  Was healing, but no disability $’s coming in.  Very difficult situation financially.  Prayed for provision for them.  Loved on them.  Suddenly had a word of knowledge of a headache on right side temple.  Turns out the mom had a headache.  Prayed.  Pain went immediately.  Daughter-in-law (Briana) shared that she was a Christian years ago, but not following now.  Prophesied and encouraged her.  Gave the family some $’s and man was overwhelmed, tears, grateful.  Also gave him a Toonie and told him to find someone else in need and give it away to bless another and sow a seed of faith.  Said he would.
We also gave out food, flowers, and chocolates to women as we went.  Corinne:  Prophesied over her with words of knowledge Young man (Keith?):  Prayed for back pain; all gone!

Man with poor eyes:  Prayed, some improvement, but not completely healed (yet)
Four young people:  Prayed for and healed in McDonald’s
Francisco:  Pain in knee; he felt it heal; pain gone
Johnny:  Young man with metal in shoulder from surgery; in pain.  Prayed and pain gone!
The team praying for Johnny attracted a crowd around them.
Prayed for young people in the park again.  Young man with pain in back.
Prayed, and saw slow improvement in his pain; could move his back better and as God healed it his face began to change as Spirit of God came upon him. Felt better!
Some were on drugs; prayed for God to love on them and change their hearts, heal their lives.
Woman with knee pain:  Pain left!
Man in wheelchair:  Prayed for him.  Did not see him walk (yet!)
Woman at the mall:  She had knee pain; declared pain gone, loved on her and pain left her body.
Dallas(?):  Hip pain due to arthritis condition.  Pain gone!
Woman with cast on hand (Loretta):  Prayed and she felt deep love of Jesus–extremely deep love; peace came on her as she felt the love of God.
A man with a lump on his leg.  Prayed and the lump went away.
Gave food to a man sitting on the ground.
Kelly:  Wanted prayer for his family.  Prayed and blessed him.

One of the women in the Spanish church had a dream about the Mall in Brandon!  She said that she felt fire in her chest and God spoke to her!
God began to move on the people in the Spanish church and some cried and were deeply moved by seeing the love of God as the H2O team leaders prayed and ministered to those they met.  Many did things that they have never done before in their lives!  Lots of fear, but they went to learn and watch and saw the Spirit of God moving on people at times.  They were getting some words of knowledge for the first time and seeing the miraculous (they’ve
never seen these things before!)  One of the members met a man with back pain on his left side.  He got a word of knowledge and was led to pray by a
leader.  All pain left.  He teared up when thinking of the goodness of God! Many in the church were very surprised by the deep love and mercy of God,
and saw joy and the miraculous!  A few came from another church!  Many commented that they could literally feel the strong presence of the Spirit
of God!   God does confirm His Word through signs and wonders! 🙂
