JOEL 2 GENERATION

Last Monday night, we went out, as our custom, and we saw some neat things happen, but I didn't get a chance to blog until now. Therefore, because accuracy is something we really value on this blog, I won't go into too many details (I can't remember them.) But here's the outline: Before heading out, we ask the Lord where He wants us to go and I saw a picture of a fish. Someone else in our group suggested it was a certain restaurant, so we headed that way after making another stop. At the restaurant, we found a man who needed some healing and he allowed Tenacious B and I to pray for him. Guess what? Absolutely NOTHING happened. He didn't feel anything, he didn't feel better-- even after we both prayed a few times. Oh well. So, we went back to the place where Texas Ranger and DJ were. We found Texas Ranger and DJ engaged in a conversation with five guys. As we joined them, I just started asking the Lord for some words for these guys-- all of them. I fee...

So, I get this call from my Syrian friend (who bears a resemblance to Sacha Baron Cohen). He tells me that he needs to see me today. This was about 5 PM and I was pretty booked up that evening, but he was serious about getting together soon. I told him the soonest I could see him would be about the 9 o'clock hour and he was agreeable to that. I was running late and it was close to 10 when I finally met him at a Starbuck's. Anyhow, he told me that yesterday morning he woke up with a severe headache and was highly irritable. The slightest thing set him off. He wasn't getting on well with his roommates. Moreover, he was plagued with disturbing dreams the following night. He awoke in the middle of the night from a troubling dream and felt like something was strangling him... Yikes. Now, things seemed to be adding up. Demonic? Ya think? The clincher was when he told me he tried to seek some relief by reading the Qur'an. Talk about the cure being worse the sick...

While in a hotel, Texas Ranger and I approached a couple Nepali men after I asked them if one of them had a shoulder problem. I got that word wrong but they were curious as to why I was asking that. We got to pray for both of these men. The first one had a back problem but since it wasn't hurting at the time we prayed, he couldn't really test it out to confirm if the condition was healed or not. I know I felt a strong sense of God's healing power flowing into his back while I was praying. The other man then explained a problem he was having in his chest (the sternum area) and we prayed for that. He began to do push ups on the ground - which he couldn't do without pain normally. He jumped up and said there was no pain. He tested it out as thoroughly as he could and didn't find any of his "tests" produced any pain. The first man we prayed for had a strange reaction when we offered prayer - he said, "I've never seen anything like this in my e...

tonight we had a bit of a "prophecy party" with a group of Egyptian muslims we met in a coffee shop. I had a pretty clear word of knowledge for a problem on the lower right arm - I thought it might be accompanied by a sensation of burning. I approached a group of Egyptian men to ask and none of them said they had the problem I described. As we were getting up to leave, I asked again and they asked us to sit down wanting to know more about the way I "know" that people have certain health conditions. It opened up a massive discussion about the Kingdom of God and they wanted us to prophesy over them. Texas Ranger and myself began to give them some prophetic words. Texas Ranger saw that one was experiencing profound sadness and heaviness. One of them, Muhammad, said he was the one. The Lord then showed me that it was related to being apart from the girl he loved. It turns out that he had just been married 3 days earlier but she was in Egypt. At this point, Isa...
