morning "spill" session - part 2

after leaving the donut shop we walked past a couple of Muslim guys and a Filipino woman and overheard them say to her, "you need to take medication for your back".  we stopped and inquired.  Isaac of Ninevah prayed for her - both her back and her stomach were hurting.  God began to touch her - we prayed again for her and then Isaac gave her his wife's number to follow up.  I don't know if she was completely healed because she needed to check it out over a period of day. then while praying for her, I got a word of knowledge for one of the Arab muslim guys' left shoulder.  he was from Lebanon.  he let me pray for him.  it wasn't hurting at the time, but only when he worked out.  he said he would test it out later that day.  I told him it wouldn't be a problem anymore because what "God reveals, God heals". finally we followed a Sudanese muslim guy into a shop as I thought I had a word of knowledge for a problem in his bicep.  he didn't

drive-by healing late last night

after spending time talking with a Coptic friend about some of the things God has been doing amongst muslims in and through his Church, Isaac of Ninevah and I were heading back to the car.  we'd had a great time "talking" about what God was doing, but we hadn't been "doing" anything.  As I walked past a group of Filipinos who had just gotten off of work, I "tuned in" and asked the Lord to highlight something He wanted to do.  A word of knowledge came for a back problem in a the center, upper back.  I stopped and turn to the group of 5 or 6 and asked who had this problem.  The man in the middle replies, "I do, are you a pastor"?  At least Filipinos recognize the Kingdom's presence!  I sat down next to him, we prayed quickly and he was healed.  He was a believer and we were all encouraged. Interestingly, before this yet again we heard about a muslim friend of this Coptic man coming to faith after Jesus visited him.  There was a proce
