Another Meeting ... Another Miracle (well, quite a few actually!)

Wow! What an amazing couple of days its been.

Last nights evening meeting was amazing, and Simon Rennie if your reading this ... another meeting ... Another miracle! Actually, that's not quite true ... there were many miracles!

It was simply amazing and very humbling to watch God perform creative miracles right in front of our eyes. Here's a very brief list of the things we've seen happen ...
* An ankle healed (not sure of the details)
* Sleepachnia healed (hope I spelt that right!)
* A shoulder broken some years ago healed and full movement restored
* Bad pain from a broken ankle completely gone
* A left arm reconstructed and straightened following an accident 6 years ago

This is just the start!
* We also saw God working creative miracles in restoring missing cartilage in knees
* We even had a report of a woman healed from M.S. while being prayed for during the meeting
ON A CELL PHONE!!!!

You may well be think "yeah ok, whatever" but when some one stands up in the meeting and gives testimony of how they were healed in last years meeting you have to start taking it a bit more seriously! (I was in the meetings last year as well and I remember these two women)

One lady was prayed for last year from a condition called distonia. It cased severe shaking and major balance problems. It also affected her swallowing to the point were it was extremely difficult to eat. In her own words, she looked like a cross the between the village drunk and the village idiot, constantly falling over because of her condition. Today she is completely healed!

Another woman arrived in a wheel chair last year. She had been in a bad car accident and suffered severe whiplash with many complications. She was paralyzed from the neck down, unable to speak and suffered foot drop. During her time in the wheel chair she also suffered two major heart attacks which doctors told her had left scarring and irreparable damage to her heart.

She was prayed for last year (at the first evening meeting ... on the second day she arrived on crutches. On the third day, she left both her wheelchair and crutches in the boot of her car and walked into the meeting!

She stood in front of 2000 people this morning totally healed. On top of that, she had a check up two days before the conference started and Doctors could find no scarring or damage to her heart AT ALL!!!

Still not convinced?!?!?!

During one of the teaching seminars on Tuesday, a lady called Fran was prayed for. She had one leg 1 and 1/2 inches shorter than the other. She had to wear an extra heal in one shoe but had constant back pain. She received prayer and her leg grew out to the size of the other. THE MIRACLE WAS FILMED and shown to us in the meeting Wednesday morning!

It is such a priviledge to witness God doing this stuff and even more humbling to realise that we get to be involved as we pray ... and its for every believer, not a chosen few.

This is normal Chrisitainity!!!

So, there is the challenge. What are you waiting for? Go find some legal targets and get praying!!!

Its Life Jim ...

Yesterday was such a great day! The testimonies have stated to come in including people healed over cell phones while conference delegates prayed for them during the meeting! How cool!

Can I tell you a quick story? If any of you have heard me preach in the last year, I might have mentioned a guy called Jim. I first met Jim at the New Wine conference last year when Bill Johnson encouraged us to pray for each other. At the time Jim was wearing two hearing aids. Myself and another guy (sorry don't know his name) began to pray for Jim's healing ... just real simple short prayers. After a while, the other guy, standing next to Jim asked him if he could hear us talking (by this time Jim had taken his hearing aids of) to which he answered "yes". taking a couple of steps back he repeated the question ... the same answer ... another couple of steps back and the same question ... the same answer! It was awesome and really the first time that I had been part of a miracle! 

Yesterday morning just before the conference was due to start, everyone fighting for seats (you know how it is at Christian conferences!) I remembered Jim from last year. As soon as I said "I wonder if Jim is here this year" ... there he was a couple of rows in front of me!

I managed to catch up with him at the end of the seminar ... no hearing aids! He told me that in the last year God has been doing a great deal in his life and really breaking his heart for the lost and to see healing. He has visited Spokane and is now involved with healing on the streets. It was so good to see him again. We hugged ... I cried. 

God is Awesome!

Bill Johnson ... part 1

Hey everyone,

Well, what an awesome day! (I'm at the New Wine conference in case you've lost track!) just a quick post ... because I need food!!! John Coles spoke this morning ... which was amazing. He got us all to stand towards the end of the meeting and I was met powerfully by the Spirit. I've read loads of stories about peoples encounters with the Spirit and it being similar to an electric shock on the top you head (i think it was Jack Dere's book) ... well it was kind of like that. Just wave after wave of the Spirit ... on the top of my head! what's all that about?!?!? 

Bill Johnson has just finished his first seminar. Similar in content to last year but still just as awesome! Again, his team brought some words of knowledge and loads of people have been prayed for. 

Well over 100 people have testified to physical healing in tonights meeting!!!!!!!!!!!

I'll try and update you again tomorrow as the testimonies come in 

... and watch out for the story of my friend Jim ... AMAZING!

Bless ya

Hey all,

Well, its just over a week before I fly out to the sunny States and things are getting kinda exciting! I'll be flying into Sanford Airport near Orlando and staying with a couple from the church. One of the Pastor's, Andy, has organized an itinerary for the time that I'm there (I'll try and keep you posted as things happen) with stuff in the church, looking at some of the para-church ministries, plenty of time for personal prayer and even leading worship at a wedding in Georgia! 

Spiritually, things are really good and exciting at the moment. As some of you know, I was made redundant at the end of March and haven't had any work through April. This has been fantastic for my spiritual life though not so good on the bank balance (... and the rent is due next week!) but God is big enough to deal with that! 

With the New Wine conference (with Bill Johnson) as well as the Company of Prophetic People training and a church away day all before I fly out ... I'm gonna be high!

I've also been hearing news of healing revival in Lakeland, Florida. This is about an hour south of where I'll be staying! I love it when God turns up and starts doing things in our midst ... bring it on! 

The big question is ... will I want to come back again?!?!?

I'll keep you posted   

Do'h

Well, this is my first foray into the world of blogging! Yeah, ok I admit I'm a little behind the times! My main reason for doing this is to keep ya'll in touch with events while I'm away in the sunny States. ... After that ... who knows!
