JOEL 2 GENERATION

the other night, Ravished and I were walking together when a man walked by us and sort of turned back towards us, as if he noticed something about us (what that was, we will never know). Both of us thought that the Lord was in some way 'highlighting' him to us, and then I got a word of knowledge for a problem in the throat. We worked hard to catch up to him and were able to stop him. I asked him if he had a problem in his throat, and he said he had a throat infection. I quickly explained that God had revealed it to us and that He wanted to heal him. He seemed a bit confused and so I explained a bit more that we were Christians and that God wanted to heal him. We learned that he was a Muslim from India. He outright refused our offer and walked away. God is far more grieved in a situation like that than we were - and we were sad. God longed to touch this man with His healing touch, to demonstrate His unconditional love and concern and one of His creatures refused His offer.

It is very rare that we're able to post about a healing AND a follow-up--especially months later. The past few days, I've been a little bummed and I just whispered to the Lord that I needed some encouragement this morning. He is always faithful to provide it one way or another and this time it was through my friend, Sojourner. Sojo called me this afternoon and told me that he had run into a friend who we had visited about six or seven months ago. During that visit, we had prayed for his uncle and some things the Lord had shown us about him. One of the words we had received had to do with his knee. He confirmed that it had been bothering him when he ran, but wasn't hurting at the time. We prayed for it nonetheless. He told us that he would check it out the next day. So, later that week (6-7 months ago now), he confirmed that his knee was no longer a problem when he ran. Now Sojo called me this afternoon (9/14) and told me that yesterday he ran into this same guy an

A few nights ago I was out with a couple of the Joel 2 Generation ministry team in a restaurant. While sitting there, I look over at a group of men and as I focus on one of them, the Lord gives me a word of knowledge that the man has a problem/condition in his lower left back. I got up enough nerve to go for it and broke into his group with the revelation. At first he denied he had the condition, but then he suddenly remembered that he had a growth in that are that had only appeared within the past 4 months. I explained what God wanted to do, gave him my business card and told him to call me if he wanted prayer for healing. I knew he would call - his curiosity and interest in how I knew about his condition got the best of him and he called me first thing the following morning. Sojourner and I met with him the that night and as we prayed, the Lord's presence began to touch the affected area. While praying, the Lord gave me 3 other words of knowledge for conditions he had - one
