God doesn't disappoint when we want to "spill" (part 1)
A few days ago a group of us headed out together wanting to "spill" His Kingdom on people. It was a bit of a slow start - however, a Gulf Arab muslim with MS let us lay hands on him and pray. He wanted to debate a bit about islam vs. Christianity at one point, but I deflected that and said, "let's see what happens with your condition in the wake of this prayer and THEN we'll talk". Jesus said that if He didn't do the Father's works, people were free not to believe His words. (Jn 10:37 - see for yourselves)
A while later I got a word of knowledge for a knee problem - asked the only 2 people in one shop who had the problem. One woman did - my son laid hands on her and God healed her knee (she wanted to know where we went to Church, so she could attend). That's the kind of response we always want to see in the wake of a healing!
In the next shop we went into, the Lord gave me a word of knowledge for this muslim man's back. He let us pray. He said it felt better after prayer.
All in all, we felt things were going really slow (which was even more the case for the other two groups). As we regathered in a food court, I explained that we don't go home discouraged because God always breaks in - even at the last minute. I had gotten one final word of knowledge for a couple sitting near us and what happened next....? (see next blog post)
