We went back to the new neighborhood Saturday to follow up on some people. At one of our first stops some women were out on there porch they didn't want prayer but said there was a sick man in the house. They took us to a back bedroom to pray for a man named Tippy his left hand and arm were swelled very badly because of gout he was in extreme pain. We began to pray and minister the swelling went down a little, we'll be back tomorrow or next week to check on him. On the way out his neighbor Edith pulled me aside and said "pray for me." She was blind in one eye because of cataracts we prayed for a while and didn't see to much changed. She did begin to see a little bit of light in her bad eye so we know God touched her.
As we were leaving Genesis said "Daddy there's a lady upstairs let's go up there." We knocked on the door and a woman named Sharon answer we told here " Jesus is king and His kingdom is on the earth" and asked if she needed prayer. She invited us in and we prophesied and shared the love of God with her. She had been struggling with depression but as we ministered she began to light up. She went on to share about her heart for helping the older people in the project and actually they were a few of the people we had been ministering to. She wants us to come back.
Next we prayed for another woman named Edith whose right side is paralysed from a stroke, she showed us the progress she's made since last week being able to lift her arm higher at the shoulder. We prayed for the full function of her hand and arm to come back 100% didn't see it open but believe it will soon you could tell her faith had been activated from what God's already done.
Next we encouraged a man in His twenties with three kids. He was wide open so we felt like we were sowing on good ground.
A few doors down we met Ricky. Ricky is a Muslim very active with the Nation of Islam. George and I stirred it up with him for about thirty minutes. He had grown up with some form of Christianity but had really been disappointed by it (obviously not the real thing) He was very angry with the American Churches and how they are so feminine. It was sad to see his hunger for God being filled with a hateful religious spirit. This is one reason why Islam attracted him, the discipline and militancy. I believe it's true to some extent most churches today are passive and feminine and this is why many men are turned off by them. I believe we got him questioning the false truth that he found in Islam. We kept bringing it back to how are you going to pay for your sins? See he believes God is a God of justice, so we got him to explain how he atones for his own sins. He believes fasting for ramadan is the way they atone now. We asked him if that seemed kind of weak going from blood sacrifice for sins to fasting. I think it got him thinking.
His finger tip had been cut off years ago and I challenged him that if Jesus healed it would he believe Jesus is God. This freaked him out but I believe God would have if he had let us pray.
CARPEL TUNNEL SYNDROME HEALED
Anyway we were a bit discouraged at this point in the outreach because we hadn't seen any profound miracles yet. We decided to follow up on one last family before leaving.
Al and Shawn had been greatly encouraged the week before. We had stirred them up with prayer prophetic words and the Gospel. They didn't need physical healing or any thing but were very encouraged. As Shawn opened the door they were so excited to see us Al had been reading his bible that week and hoping we came back. His wife Shawn held up her left hand in a brace and said look what happened. She had woken up that morning with extreme pain and much swelling in her fingers wrist and forearm. They went to the emergency room. The diagnosis was carpel tunnel syndrome. They sent her home and said if it doesn't get better she may need surgery. She said they hadn't given her anything for the pain except ibuprofen.
I Said "Jesus has something for the pain" We asked her the pain level she said 10 and she couldn't close her hand at all. We began to pray and then asked her to take off the brace. She said the pain was an 7 and she could move her fingers a little bit. We prayed at least four times and checked the pain level each time. It got down to level 3 and then no pain whatsoever. The swelling completely went down. She was able to make a fist, open and closed write with a pen and tears began to flow. They were amazed at what God did, visibly shaken.
Were going back today, Sunday to have a house church meeting they are very excited.
Praise God!!!!!
THE BLIND SEE (This could be your only chance)
All I can say is WOW and thank you Jesus. We had a team of five go on outreach today and we had a blast. We ventured out into some uncharted waters in a new neighborhood and saw multiple healing's and God's glory show up in a powerful way.
Renee and Shelley Knocked on a mans door, he responded to them with a typical "I'm not interested" type of response so they went next door. A few minutes later he calls out "did you leave yet? I do want prayer." ( later he shared God spoke to him and said "THIS COULD BE YOUR ONLY CHANCE" that's why he changed his mind) So they went in to pray for him he had been blind since about 1972, he could see some shapes and shadows but that's about it. They ministered for a bit then came and got me and George. We all began pray and loose God's kingdom after a while he began to say "I feel something we said that's the glory of God on you what's happening?"He said "water" As we looked up water was running out of his eyes but he wasn't crying. God was definitely doing something. We did the finger test and he past, than an across the room finger test he passed. Then we found something for him to read he began to slowly read the first line . It was very small print but he began to read each word.
(It was very dark in his apartment so I reached to turn on a light there was no light bulb. I said "hey you need a light bulb he said why would I need a light bulb I was blind I said oh yea that makes sense")
Anyway We continued to test it I wrote my cell number down for him, he read it no problem he said he hadn't read anything for thirty years!! He asked if he could keep the scrap paper we tested him with he wanted to keep reading it. Come on Jesus!!!
He knew the Lord and we encouraged him to dig his bible out and begin reading it for himself we can't wait to go back next week and see how he's doing.
He also had numbness and swelling in his fingers and arms Shelley put her hands on his and began to pray he said it felt like he had two big gloves on because of the swelling. After prayer he said it felt like the gloves came off. We had some words for him and continued to minister for a while he was visibly shaken by God's touch and so were we!!! Praise God!!
George and I had an opportunity to pray for a woman who had had a stroke in 99. We felt much much compassion for her as we prayed and while testing her paralysed right side was able to lift her arm about 5 inches higher than before prayer thank you Jesus We believe God's gonna continue to heal can't wait to report on it being complete.
Also we ministered to a family moving some people in. The husband needed a job so we prayed for him and we got some prophetic words for him and his wife the words were right on and got there attention. He began to share with us some of his past and how he had been on fire for God for many years, he began to really light up. George asked if he'd been baptized in the Holy Spirit he said "oh yes" and began to share story after story of many prophetic experiences he had in the past. He was very thankful we came over he said he saw us going door to door and was waiting for us to come over. He felt like a quality guy with a huge destiny awaiting him. The presence of the Lord got stronger and stronger as we stirred each other up sharing about the things of God..

Is the Gospel inappropriate?
I remember waiting for the Christmas parade to start in downtown Winston Salem this past December. Just before the parade a few thousand people lined both sides of fourth street eagerly awaiting the parade. I couldn't help but think about preaching the Gospel at full volume in the middle of the street. I also couldn't help but think how inappropriate that would be. Well that's the million dollar question isn't it. When is it appropriate to share the gospel? Are people really going to hell? Did God really commission the Church to bring the good news miracles signs and wonders? Is God really expecting us to penetrate this world with the Gospel? I guess I would have to say it is absolutely appropriate. We tend to er on the side of caution more worried about how we come across or if this is the right time. We listen to that voice of sophistication that says " oh that would be inappropriate."Jesus said "today is the day of salvation" I know we really don't have much persecution in this country maybe it's because were so passive and cautious about bringing the truth. Are we more worried about offending people then offending God? Is there actually a godly tangible boldness, a cheerful courage available for us to walk in ? I believe there is!! Join us this week for outreach and we'll find out together.
The church has left the building!!
We headed out today and as we went down Liberty street and onto New Hope Rd we saw a woman hobbling along. Paul commented on her so we turned around. I hopped out and started talking to her she God saved right on the spot and I prayed for her to get healed No instant healing but Freida was touched and happy to receive Jesus. i just asked her if she was a Christian and she said honestly no. I asked her what was keeping her from becoming one and she said nothing. She willingly received.
As I turned to go back to the car I saw another woman approaching so I talked to her. I told Celeste my testimony and tears are streaming down her face. I was reading her mail. I asked her what was keeping her from surrendering to Jesus right then. She was tired of living her life and not sure if she wanted to. She wasn't sure she wanted to change. We talked for at least 20 more minutes and I just gave her hope and truth and she and I both cried some more. She "on the streets". I think a prostitute. I told her how Jesus hung around the prostitutes and thieves and the untouchables. He LOVED her and sent me to tell her.
She came over to the car to get my number and I told her just go home today. Not to go back out on the street. Paul and George ministered and encouraged her to get with some Christians and we offered to meet back with her again, but she lived in Lexington.
We prayed with her and she surrendered to the Lord. She was filled with the Spirit of God instantly and began crying and smiling.
We went down to check on some folks down at the project and she how they were doing. Sherry and Timothy were first. They were both encouraged and seeking jobs. Sherry said we could come back and visit on Sunday. We call it mobile church. On the way out we talked to another woman and prayed with her. She said she was a believer.
We saw Theresa and she was healed one time before of knee pain instantly. She recently had hip surgery and wanted prayer for that because it was acting up and her leg was longer. I prayed for her. It wasn't instantly healed, but I prayed for her back. I felt like her hips and back were out to compensate for the injury.
Then we talked with about 6 or 7 other people and prayed for them. The next doorstep would call for prayer next. George was getting words of knowledge and authority.

Neighborhood outreach
We went out yesterday to a neighborhood in downtown in Winston Salem and we saw God's glory being poured out in a new way. Everywhere we went someone would start crying. We prayed for a stroke victim and no visable healing. Paul began to minister to a woman in the room and she began to cry. We prayed for her brother in law who was in the hospital with cancer.
We then prayed for a man with diabetes and a prothstetic leg. We were invited to pray for someone sick in the house. She had an infection in her leg from a surgery and then I received a word of knowledge about something else in her body needing to be healed and she let us know that she had cancer. We prayed and I was crying and she was too.
The other woman in the room began to cry and Paul was ministering to her and we prayed for her Brother in law who is in the hospital dying of cancer. A man outside was healed 70% of arthritis and he was surprised that he was feeling better. Then yesterday Paul had a friend call and he received Jesus as his Lord and saviour!!

Advancing the Kingdom
Advancing the Kingdom
When Jesus sent out the 70 they came back rejoicing!! That is a bit of what we felt like today. There were 7 adults total and we invaded 2 neighborhoods with the Kingdom of God. Paul asked this man if he could pray for him and he came running towards us. He had pain in his side like ribs from over 1 year ago and he got totally healed and he started jumping up and down screaming and shouting and praising God and speaking in tongues. He lit up when God healed him!
We went and checked up on a woman from last week with cancer and infection in her leg. We prayed again over her and she stood up out of her wheelchair and felt better. She has felt like the skin is healing over her leg wound and it was tight feeling as the skin is being restored!!
We all came together and shared what good things God had done. On one team God continued a further healing of paralysis in a woman's arm from a stroke.
And still others received encouragement while the glory was falling on others.

Jesus always raised the standard
Many times in life we tend to lower our expectations. This is sometimes considered wisdom especially in relation to dealing with people. However we need to be careful this doesn't become the norm in our life. Yes people will disappoint us yes Gods timing many times is not ours but as believers were called to be like Jesus. What was He like? He lived a lifestyle of expectation a life of true living faith. He had the ability to believe His Father and also to believe in people. He would'nt have died for humanity if He did'nt.
In one account He told a woman to "go and sin no more" this wasn't just a catchy Jesus saying, it was living faith. When He said "he who believes in me, the works that I do he will do also" Again He's always challenging always raising expectation. Always believing. This is how we're called to live. Always believing God always raising our expectation always trusting the God that is able to do exeecingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us.Always preaching Jesus is the way Always bringing the reality of the Kingdom of God in our midst!!!

BLIND EYE opened!!!
We went to piedmont park with a team of six. About half way through the outreach we met a woman named Martha. We asked her how she was doing she looked a little down. She said "I guess o.k." we began to share about the Kingdom of God and asked if she needed any healing in her body. She said I've been blind in my right eye for two years. We began to pray God's kingdom would come and His will would be done. After we prayed we asked her to cover her good eye to check the bad one. She said there was no changed so we began to pray again. This time as she covered her good eye I held up one finger in front of her bad eye. I said how many fingers do you see she said "one" I said but that's your bad eye she started freaking out saying I can see. I held up two fingers and then three she could see them everytime. She went running into the house yelling telling every one.
When she came out we shared how much God loved her and she re dedicated her life to the Lord!!! Come on Jesus!!

Everyone stopped laughing!!!!!!
Went into a neighborhood felt a lot of intimidation but decided to just jump in anyway. We went up to a group of 6-7 people on a porch told them Jesus is king and His kingdoms on the earth. Asked if anyone needed prayer a man came out using a cane had a bad knee 10 pain level.
As we began to pray they started laughing we kept praying for a bit then ask him to look for the pain and what was the level now. He looked up and said there's no pain zero. He kept trying to find the pain everyone stopped laughing and looked a little bit shocked!! come on Jesus!!!
We began to minister to others on the porch one woman kept saying thank you Jesus!
I said to them I don't know about you but this makes me a little nervous if God healed him that means that He really is right here!! Needless to say they weren't laughing at us when we left.

Word of knowledge
On a wednesday night outreach we saw a guy waiting on a bench outside a barber shop. We began talk with him and tell him about the kingdom of God. I started getting the name Tony so I asked him if he knew somebody named Tony. He said no, so I just began to share how God loved him and was concerned with every detail of his life. I shared about God having a specific plan for him and us talking to him was a divine appointment. Then he said I Think your right my name is Tony. He was visibly touched and encouraged that God knew his name and really believed he sent us to speak to him.
Back injury healed
On our Wednesday night outreach we went to parkway plaza strip mall. We stopped a women walking by and told her the "kingdom of Heavens at hand' and asked if she needed healing in her body. She said she had a lot of pain in her back we began to pray "God your kingdom come your will be done on earth as it is in Heaven." We commanded all pain to go in Jesus name. We asked her to look for the pain she got a surprised look on her face and said it's gone. She said I feel like a little girl again pain free...Come on Jesus!!!!
Drug dealers wide open
One Saturday we went to Piedmont park to follow up on a guy named Timothy. A women came to the door and said he wasn't home. She pointed down the street to a bunch of people hanging out and said he's down there. We walked down the street looking for Timothy well we found a guy name Timothy but it was a different one. They seemed like a pretty rough crowd and we felt a little intimidated but we boldly said hey the" kingdom of heaven's at hand" and just explained it's right in our midst and actually they were wide open to listen to the Gospel.
Two of them had just been talking about going back to church. We got a few prophetic words about there giftings and callings and said we would come back on Sunday and we could have "church" right here. A girl name Tasha said "I can round up a bunch of people if you want".
The next day we went back and the atmosphere was a little crazy they were selling pot but two of the guys Chris and Timothy were there and even more open then the day before. Timothy began to consider turning himself in to the police, conviction was all over him.

I got two jobs!!!!
On a wednesday night we were on outreach at parkway plaza a strip mall on peters creek parkway. Many times we will pray for whatever people need. A guy comes running up and says hey I got two jobs!!! We didn't know what he was talking about at first then he began to say" you prayed for me to get a job remember." We had prayed for him a few weeks earlier. He had been out of work for a while.
He said people he knew were saying to him what's going on you look different, happy, your smiling he would testify "God got me two jobs !!!!" He said he's been telling everyone what God's done for him now he's getting caught up on his rent and bills. He even went back to church!!!

miracles and salvation
Here's a great testimony of some things that happened at Cleveland homes . It was Saturday and a lot of people were out. We were ministering to a group at a mini yard sale preaching and praying for a women in a wheelchair. A teenager came running up to us and said are you the people from the church I need you to pray for my best friend she wants to kill herself. We said yes and followed her she led us around the back of some apartments and her friend was there with a guy she seemed very disturbed and upset we began to minister to her and tell her about the kingdom of God. She began to manifest screaming and yelling we began to bind the enemy suicide etc....she ran away but we were able to pray and explain some things to her friend. As we went around the other side of the apartments. we got to pray for a women with much pain in her arm from an injury after we prayed she was shocked to have no pain...
there were other people all around us manifesting yelling and just a crazy kind of feel.
We saw a women on a porch and asked if she needed prayer. She had a walker and she had just gotten a hip replacement. We began to tell her about the Kingdom and Prayed that it would manifest. She began moving around and George asked what are you doing she was trying to make her hip and her knee( which we didn't even pray for) hurt and they were healed. she was visibly shaken to tears. We asked if she was walking with the Lord she said no but her father was a minister. We led her in a rededication prayer and she said she was going to call her parents and tell them the news of her rededication and healing.
A women across the street wave to us to come over she saw what happened and said she was hoping we would come over. She was very convicted and felt very condemned and ashamed of some things she had done. We prophesied and prayed over her for a while and watched her countenance change to a joyful spirit right before our eyes. Wow Jesus!!!!!

DEAF EAR NO EARDRUM. HEALED!
On Saturday we prayed for a guy named Ray 100% deaf in right ear. He actually didn't even have an ear drum.
At first he started to feel pressure in his ear we figured if God put a new eardrum in there would be some pressure. As we continued to pray he began to react in amazement saying I can totally hear. We shared that God healed him because he loved him so much. He was tearing up and felt so unworthy.
Also His girlfriend said her five month old baby in her womb started moving a lot and she was also under a lot of conviction. We were able to follow up with them for a few days.

As you go preach
Jesus spoke confidence and courage into His disciples. He released a forward momentum into His disciples 2,000 years ago and it continues even now.
Instead of confusion or insecurity He wants us to minister out of confidence and a fresh understanding of the reality of His present advancing kingdom.
"do not think that I came to bring peace on the earth" Jesus continually confronts
wrong mindsets. We need to let go of old mindsets..carnal selfish mindsets..
goofy man made religeous mindsets. The perception that being a Christian is a passive soft lifestyle is a wrong mindset.
We are not supposed to live life in a defensive posture. We're called to advance and step in to the momentum of the Gospel.
We've been hitting some local neighborhoods pretty hard for the past 4 months seeing many miracles. One thing we've encountered is many "believers" but very few followers.
Almost everyone we meet says they are a believer but the real challenge is finding those that want to go on and follow the Lord into all He has for them....
