August
2008 in the village of Pastipada
Before the incident and persecution broke
out in Orissa we had a program in one Hindu village. This village,
Pastipada (“field”),
is 20 km from Bhawanipatna. Some miracles took place but right
after that the persecution broke out in Orissa and we could not
send this report to you.
Above:
This sister is from a Hindu background. Just a year ago she came
to
know Christ through one of our missionary brothers. But at
that time the problem that she had was not yet solved. Of course
she had strong faith in God that one day she would be healed.
For one long year she had an eye problem and she could not see
properly. After we prayed, I gave the command in Jesus’ name
and she was able to see properly.
Above: This
sister is named Sara. She was suffering from a severe headache
for long days. She had undergone experiments
involving medical
treatments but still she was not cured. But God the Healer touched
her when I commanded her to be healed in Jesus’ name. Immediately
afterwards she testified that God had touched and healed her.
Above: This
mother has endured tragedies in her life. She was always tortured
by her family members---her son and her sister-in-law.
Moreover she suffered a great deal from body pain. Often she would
fall ill but she had faith that prayer to God could do everything
for her. She asked me to pray over her. When I ministered to her
she said that she always depended on prayer and at that moment
she felt better than before. Praise God He is good.
Above: This
elderly mother is all alone in this world. No one cared for her,
no one helped her and no one was concerned for her because
the village is a Hindu village and she had accepted Christ as
her Savior. Many years ago her husband had passed away and her
children had left her as well. She eats only when someone brings
food to her. In this pathetic condition she survived by herself
by hearing God’s word. She was also blind for a year after
suffering from an eye problem. When we ministered to her she
was healed. Now she can see.
Many
other miracles have taken place as well, but I have just sent
a few photos with the corresponding testimonies. There was one
person who was attacked by a devil spirit. After I rebuked it
in Jesus’ name, it left him and he was healed. One old
man had back pain. He was also healed by the power of the Holy
Spirit.
Thank
you for praying for us. Please continue to uphold us in prayer
in order that we may able to continue our ministry here in Orissa
and do greater things for the Lord God our Father.
Reported on December 21, 2008: The healing of baby boy Mehul
There is
a baby boy named Mehul who is just 9 months old. Unfortunately
he suffered from a severe fever for one week. It was
on
Monday, December 15th at six o’clock in the morning his parents
brought him to us. They have been coming to our church for one
year are from
a Hindu background. That morning I was not at home and they waited
for one and half hour until I returned home.
Then I ministered to the boy. Afterwards I told them that it
would be better to consult a doctor. They left for their home which
is 3 km distant from us. When
they reached home Mehul had no more temperature in his body. On
Sunday they were testifying how God healed their
son
within
a moment. We praise God that He is doing His work
in His time.
