Dear Family and
Friends:
As usual, Jesus was
amazing in Zambia! Tens of thousands of
people committed to turn from sin, trust in Jesus, and follow Him. Thousands were healed by Jesus. (The last
night, evangelist Christopher Alam asked everybody to take their hands down to
make sure they understood they were indicating they were healed and then the same
large number of people raised their hands again!) It’s exciting being where Jesus is doing
incredible things. (See below a photo of
a large evening crowd.) Because of the four weeks of training for participating
churches done by Dynamis World Ministries before these meetings, we are optimistic
as we pray that the people whose lives were changed will continue to seek and serve
the Lord.
Noteworthy healings
included a man who got out of his wheelbarrow and walked and people who threw
down their crutches and walked. Our team
of four witnessed a good number of people who were healed by Jesus in response
to prayer. I personally saw the Lord heal some people right in front of my own
eyes including some deaf or partially deaf people and a woman who said she had
cataracts but her vision was no longer cloudy after praying.
Our team shared the
awesome news of Jesus in an orphanage, a school during two separate assemblies, and on the
streets in two locations. In church on
Sunday, we shared regarding there being so much more of Jesus available to all
of us and how God wants to heal people.
When the people in the church specifically prayed for those who were
sick, God healed 7 people. This
represented about 1/7 of the new congregation.
Jesus is so good!
One night our team prayed for Ignatius,
a hotel worker, and the Lord healed his feet, ankles, and hips so he
could walk without pain. The next night
he wanted to talk with us and we helped him to turn from sin, rely on Jesus,
and become a child of God. As was done
at the other meetings, we encouraged Ignatius to read the Bible every day, talk
with the Lord every day, tell others about what God has done for him, and go to
a good, Bible believing church that prays for the sick in Jesus’ name and sees them healed. Please pray for Ignatius and all whose lives
where touched.
Thanks so much to
everyone who prayed for the people involved in the various outreaches. Like it says above, Jesus was (and is)
absolutely fantastic!!!
in His infinite awesomeness
and awesome
infiniteness,
John
