house church meeting - healings and prophecy

I was asked to come and minister in a friend's house Church. It was a group of radical God seekers who long for His presence more than anything. In fact, with all the different ways people describe churches (i.e. 'purpose driven', 'seeker sensitive', 'Word-based', etc. etc.) there is truly one description that seems to me to be the one every Church should give themselves to - being 'PRESENCE Driven'. I mean His presence! This was truly one of those kinds of churches. The Lord began to speak to me prophetically about the church and also for some individual members. After an extended time of worship, I shared, prophesied and prayed for the sick. What was remarkable in terms of the healings that God did, most of them seemed to be without the laying on of hands. God would give me a word of knowledge and then we would just ask God to do it sovereignly. As one who is passionate about training and equipping others, much of the emphasis in the mini

man encounters God's presence and healing in restaurant

Three of us were out to lunch and I felt like I had a word of knowledge for the restaurant host. I called him over and asked if he had a certain problem (pain in wrist) but he did not. Note: I got the word WRONG He asked why I had asked, I explained who I was and about God's Kingdom. He had some other conditions - a head injury and also back problems. I prayed for him twice. The Holy Spirit came upon him and he had an encounter with God. You could see it in his face!! After the 2nd time, I encouraged him to go and do something he couldn't do without pain. As we were walking out, he was sitting down and getting up showing us what he couldn't do without pain before prayer. He was healed and you could tell he was happy! Yet another example of going in on an incorrect word and yet God turns it into a Kingdom moment!

God shows up, give a word of knowledge and heals a neck and shoulder

Last night as I was settling into the where I was staying for the night, I walked past a young man and I got a word of knowledge for a right shoulder problem. I wasn't able to follow it up at that time, but this morning at breakfast I asked him, "do you have a problem with your shoulder"? (I further asked if it was the right shoulder). Yes, he did. I explained what it was that God had shown me and what He wanted to do. I prayed for him and the shoulder was healed. He also had a neck problem (related to the shoulder) that was still painful. I then prayed for that and guess what? God healed that too. What a start to the day!!!!

indian man healed of chronic pain

tonight an Indian Catholic couple came to me for prayer. we had prayed before for a problem he had in his neck which caused pain all the way down to his fingers, but the problem returned. he wasn't going to leave tonight with his pain - not on my shift (as Wigglesworth so boldly used to declare). I prayed for him maybe 5 or 6 times and each time we saw improvement. we got to 85-90% pain-free and then I prayed again. finally, we hit the target - NO MORE PAIN! He told me at the beginning that it was about 50%. Jesus got yet another A+ tonight because he left at 100%!
