(Part I) Syrian Muslim hungry to be healed

Walked up to the counter at an Arab food restaurant, and the Lord gives me a word of knowledge for a right ear problem. I ask the man who is taking my order, but it wasn't for him. When I asked the group of men working there, they brought forward one of the employees who had the problem in his right ear. I told them that God had given me a word that He wanted to heal the man's ear. I didn't feel it was right to pray for him there. I knew it was a bit conspicuous and he may have felt a bit uncomfortable - as they were all Muslims and it was a public setting. The men were all interested to know, how I knew about the problem. I quickly explained to them that God had indicated to me what He wanted to do for this man. I gave the man my business card to call me to set a time where I could "treat" his ear. I also made it clear that this "treatment" would be free-of-charge. This is an important point to make with Muslims because their Islamic 'heale...

Getting it wrong, then God gets it right!

This afternoon, I approached a group of Indian waiters in a restaurant because I had earlier gotten a word of knowledge for a right leg problem below the knee. None of them said they had any problems. I then asked one of them to give me his hand - for some reason he agreed. I just took a moment to turn my thoughts towards heaven and tune into what the Lord would be saying - after a few moments, a word of knowledge came to me that this man had pain in his stomach. When I asked him, somewhat surprised, he said, "Yes I do" and pointed right to the spot where I received the word of knowledge. I then was able to pray for this Hindu man for healing in Jesus' Name. I went in with a wrong word, but in the end, God got it right! What a God we serve!!

Dreams and Visions are Alive and Well!

Queen Esther will soon be giving her testimony of how the Lord has used visitors, mysterious gifts, dreams, and knock-off shampoo to win for Himself the heart of a woman.

Following the Ghost

You never know where you'll end up when you're following the Ghost. Last night, we first headed out, according to a prophetic vision, out to an embassy. We didn't really know why we were going out there other than we had received a picture of this country's flag. As it turns out, it took awhile to find, but when we finally did, the security guard was really nervous and didn't have any of the words of knowledge that we had written down. So, we thanked him and headed out. Imagine briefly three guys pulling in front of an embassy at 10PM and asking if anyone there had a problem with their right knee. On the way back to town, we were able to pray for an Asian man and a problem of his. After the embassy, we went to a gas station/restaurant/bakery/car store/car wash/juice stall where another one of us had received a vision to go-- it just happened to be on the same street as the embassy (though about 3 miles away). Moreover, in the prayer time before going out, we ...

"Reading the mail" of a Lebanese Druze man

Last night three of us headed out after the Lord had given Isaac of Ninevah and Tenacious B, some prophetic pictures about who we would meet, the problems they would have and where exactly in the city we should go. Our first stop was a bakery and the restaurant next door - we got to pray for the woman who was working the counter. In the restaurant, we got to pray for several Muslim men, including two Arab men who were quite "interested" in what we were doing - they were watching us lay hands on the restaurant workers. To be honest, I'd "wonder" myself what was going on if I didn't know. Many Christians would "wonder" too for that matter. I just explained to them that God had led us to come here by giving us a vision and showing us things He wanted to heal. I got to pray for one guy who had an elbow and shoulder problem. I felt like the Lord was going to come on him at some time during the night - I told him it would be intense heat. I said he...
