Thank You Jesus in Half Moon Bay

Wow!

We just can't stop thanking the Lord for what he did for us by taking away our pains according to Isaiah 53. (Quoted here actually from Luke 4 in the Amplified Bible)

16When evening came, they brought to Him many who were [g]under the power of demons, and He drove out the spirits with a word and restored to health all who were sick.

17And thus He fulfilled what was spoken by the prophet Isaiah, He Himself took [[h]in order to carry away] our weaknesses and infirmities and bore [i]away our diseases.(C)


We visited with long time friends in Half Moon Bay and updated them on our Brazil trip and what God has been doing since our return. They are an incredibly anointed group of people who flourish in dream interpretation (they do workshops) and the prophetic. They sparkle in the Holy Spirit and just last week prayed for one of their group with one leg shorter than the other, and it grew out- Glory to God! Really, considering the God we serve shouldn't that be a normal activity in our lives? A God through his example with Jesus showed he invaded pain and disease with his desire and love to heal. After it says in the Psalms...."I am the God of miracles!"

We had a great time in the Lord and the Lord again confirmed his word twice. First by healing the back of our friend Mark after we commanded healing in Jesus name over him.



This is a picture of the handsome lad here.....He improved each time we spoke in Jesus name commanding that pain to "Go!". He was able to touch the ground and was without pain. TYJ!!!!!




Then as he was rejoicing about being healed another dear friend Kyoko who had not been prayed for had her left knee healed by the Holy Spirit sovereignly where she was standing.

Thank you Joanne, Mark, Kyoko, Michele, Betty and Tim for your commitment to the Lord and your strong desire to move into everything the Bible says we can have, for today.

We are so grateful to the Lord for what he has done and continues to do.

Glory to Jesus !

BTW- Please keep us in prayer as we are going to minister at the "Circle Church" in Santa Cruz on Saturday, December 18th. Time is from 6:30 PM to end by 10 PM. It is supposed to be a joint English and Spanish speaking group with an interpreter. We want to touch people for salvation and God's portion in healing. Amen !

The Holy Spirit Glowed at AGLOW !

We are so thankful to the Holy Spirit for these new ministry opportunities and that he continues to confirm his presence and demonstrate his love.

Margaret and I spoke at the San Mateo Aglow Light House Meeting on November 15th.

Margaret led worship which blessed us all and, a new song we brought back from Brazil called Majesty-Holy just filled the place.

This was followed by a prophetic word for the group and individual words for several people,
then there was a second strong prophetic exhortation calling for higher places and more of the Lord in the lives of those there.

We then presented what we called “Brazil Part 2” and went into more detail about the healings, scriptural basis for them, and talked about authority and impartation. We showed some new videos of people in Brazil with deaf ears being healed and of a woman who had broken her arm and it affected her use of her shoulders and she was healed. We then had Connie (see a prior post-the lady who loves Jesus who was healed of blurred vision) and Twila (the on-fire for Jesus mom of a young lady who’s foot was healed after prayer) come up and give their testimonies. We finished the presentation and then went into prayer for healing which was followed by prayer for impartation. Lots of people remained after dismissal for these two reasons.

We had decided that we would start with those who had definite pain in their bodies so we could, by use of the five step model, measure improvement. We prayed for:

1. A man who had fallen off a ladder while working on his mom’s house in Chicago. His back, knees, hips and hands (he had also cut his hands). WE commanded the pain to leave and he reported he was at 50% less pain. GTG! So we continued to command the pain to go and healing to come and he went from 80% and finally to “I’m waving my hands." People applauded the Lord….


Expectation levels popped way up after this and we have found that if there is not instant manifestation that the measuring process of the 5-step method really helps change the atmosphere from either complacency or unbelief to faith.


2. A dear German lady, she had pain, headaches behind her eyes, something that had happening for three years. After we assessed how bad the pain was we spoke to it, she fell in the Spirit and was on the floor for some time. She later got up to say her right eye no longer had pain so we prayed for the left eye again. She sat down and in a few minutes told us she was healed. Praise God!


3. A good friend who had a headache.
Margaret laid a hand on his head and both she and he felt a very strong tingling from her hand into him. Then he began laughing uncontrollably. It took a while for him to finally stop and sit down. The headache left.


IMPARTATION
So after the prayer time the people listed here stayed for impartation. We had told them what had happened to us in Brazil and the prayer for impartation we had gotten from the Global Team.

Thank you Lord for your kindnesses, more and more exalt your name and your holy son, Jesus.

Also our thanks to Margaret Schillig and Amy Kurakowa for inviting us to speak. You guys are wonderful examples of those hungry for the deeper things of God.

VICTORY INTERNATIONAL CHURCH - SAN MATEO, CA
We met at Victory International Church, pastored by Brad and Gigi Allen, who are pictured here.

If you need a church home, if you're hungry to go past "just church" to the deeper things God really has for you, come to Victory. Pastor Brad's teaching is strong, caring, Biblical and geared for application in our lives today. I would also recommend the Victory Bible School, Pastor Gigi is the administrator of the school. The course content she and Brad have developed is designed to making "Disciples" out of "Believers" so you can powerfully live your life with confidence and faith. You can view many of the teachings from the school on the Victory web site.

Go for it!

Testimony of Restored Eyesight and the Gift of English

CONNIE'S TESTIMONY

We are thrilled with what the Lord has been doing in our midst since our return from Brazil.
I mentioned in an earlier blog-post that a woman in our church was sovereignly healed of blurred vision from a stroke in both eyes.

The video attached here is the testimony of that woman, Connie.
She has been telling everyone she can about how God healed her, she is so thrilled about it. As you can see from what she says here she really believes that "God answered my prayer."

So let this encourage you.
You were meant to get answered prayer.
You are told to expect answers to prayer, Jesus promised and 2Corinthians 1:20 tells us that "as many as are the promises of God they find their 'Yes' in Christ."

Say "Amen" and receive your promises fulfilled.


THE GIFT OF ENGLISH

A couple of days ago we were delighted to get this email from a young lady, perhaps a junior in high school who was an interpreter for us while at one church in Brazil. We had prayed for several people who asked for us to pray that they would be able to learn English quickly. Apparently in this case the Holy Spirit decided to give the entire gift of English at one time.

Hi Joe,

Thanks for sending me the photos.
unfortunately did not take pictures with your wife, but I really liked her. I´ll save the photo as a memory.

Joe, there is one thing I want to tell you.
On the day that you came here in our church and prayed for one girl, she received a gift. This week she start speek in english!

She still can not control the English language and confuses the two, so feels (unsure about how) to speak. I´m not sure how to help her.


Thaks again,

blessings and kisses.


Isabela, SP - Brazil.

God is so much fun and SO generous.

We found in Brazil that if you live in an atmosphere of expectation, you receive.
If you choose to believe the word of God and expect that its truth will come to pass you will receive. We saw this time after time in Brazil and God has allowed us to bring that home to where we live as can be seen by Connie's miraculous healing.

Glory to God!

This is what the "normal" Christian life is meant to be.

Living in the super-nature of God, a God who loves to give to his children everything that is good and perfect.

Thank you Lord.

More of you Lord Jesus, more of you....

Redemption and Triumph !
