A street called "healer"
A small group of us have been going to this main street in our city for the past five months, loving on people and offering healing to those who are afflicted. During this time we have seen numerous healings and built some very strong relationships with shopkeepers and restaurant staff. Many we have prayed for have had dreams from the Lord and gone through some deliverance with us where they have been set free from addictions.
Recently we got a word confirmed over our nation by a visiting itinerate minister that many expatriate folk have come to plow the land in order to lead people to Jesus in our country, but it would be the local believers in the region that would be used to witness and disciple their nation. So this evening when we went out to our street we had an Arabic speaking believer from a neighboring country come out with us to pray for the sick. It was his first time. We started out in a Hypermarket, where we prayed for people with back, chest and shoulder pain and they were healed. We even had people try and track us down to pray for them in the stairwell. We then moved onto a juice stall where we had built relationship with the staff. While we sat drinking juice, our Arabic speaking friend was having a good conversation with the manager (who we have been sowing into for ages). As we are paying, the manager asks our Arabic friend if he can accept Jesus into his life!! (We have no clue this is happening and move on to the next shop). Praise God!
In the next shop we talked with a man who had been set free from his violent video game addiction and from night terrors. He talked with our Arabic friend and asked if he two could accept Jesus into his heart. We are blown away!!!! Two salvations!! We had been encouraging this guy for months and now that we have a local from the region with us, he is now ready to accept Jesus! When we left this shop, our Arabic friend then told us that the manager in the juice place had given his life to Jesus. We are ecstatic!!!
Getting to witness an Arabic speaking person from the region lead others in his region to Christ was a huge confirmation to the word that was just spoken as well as what we had been contending for in the secret place for years. God is raising up people from this region to take it for his Kingdom!!! How awesome is that!!!
Oh, and we also found out from our Arabic friend that the name of the street we adopted is literally translated into English as “Healer”. The street has been prophesying the breakthrough all along and confirming the word we got that it would be the healthiest street in our city! Thank you Jesus!
