This morning we had outreach. My group went to pray for people waiting outside a massage clinic. A few people were healed of back and neck pain. One man gave his life to Jesus and a woman experience partial healing in her hand through a word of knowledge. After preaching briefly and asking if anyone would like prayer a woman asked us to pray for her daughter who is deaf and mute. I felt the anointing and the power of God, but no breakthrough seemed to occur. I got a word of knowledge for her mother but it was a stomach issue that she would have to test out later. She was weeping. We prayed for the healing anointing to come on two paramedics who both felt the power of God come on their hands. A group of older Catholics told us we were crazy when I told them that Jesus was healing the knee of someone in their group. That is very common among the Catholics here who want nothing to do with Christians. We went to a gas station and began praying for the attendants. The first one got healed in his back and neck and gave his life to Jesus. Then when we were about to leave I got a word of knowledge for hearing loss and his ear got healed. Two female attendants saw this going on and both wanted prayer. I believe both got healed. Both also experienced the presence of God. I noticed a pack of cigarettes in the back pocket of the one I was praying for and so we asked her if she wanted to be free from the addiction. She did and when we prayed she felt dizzy but then better when we were done.
Tonight we had a healing campaign. During worship, Kris told me about an angel that was there that would release very specific words of knowledge. He said the anointing was as strong as he felt at Lakeland. Right when I got up to preach I felt an angel on my right hip so I called out problems in the right hip. Then I specifically said that someone broke their hip 4 years ago. Later a man would testify that God healed him tonight of the hip he broke 4 years ago and at the end of the meeting he gave his life to Jesus! There was a teenage girl in a wheel chair that tried to stand up when I called out the word of knowledge for the hip. I knew that she was why I felt the angel. Later she came up without her wheel chair and walked across the stage. A huge shout erupted from the crowd and everyone stood to their feet and pulled out their cameras and phones. They left her wheel chair on the stage the whole meeting. A boy came up saying that he could now read without his glasses, but we hadn’t called that out as a word of knowledge. So I called it out after his testimony and for the rest of the night, many people came up and testified about being able to read what they couldn’t before. Many deaf ears also opened.
It was slightly frustrating because people were not responding to the words of knowledge when we just called out a general word like “hearing loss”. Kris came and told me to be more specific and that I couldn’t be wrong. I called out that God was healing a woman with back pain wearing a green shirt. Kris then pointed the woman out and she got healed. A few minutes later I called out that God was healing a man in a red shirt of back pain and then I pointed out the man. He got healed almost immediately. A little bit later I handed the microphone to Kris and continued to give out words of knowledge. One that I gave him was God healing a woman named Margarita with a tailbone problem. A few dozen people cheered and we found out that there was a woman there in the front named Margarita. I went down and found out that her tailbone was healed. She got healed of many things. I called out a man named Roberto who didn’t come forward until after the meeting. I got a word of knowledge for an undiagnosed problem he has and prophesied over him. There was a very strong anointing still during this time. At the close of the meeting Kris gave the altar call and we had the biggest response of any of the meetings. It is fitting that when people see the power of Jesus they want to know Him. In the Bible, Jesus wouldn’t preach to a sick crowd, He would preach to the crowd after He healed them! I prayed for another couple and got a word of knowledge for the ears and the husband got healed. I prayed for the husband’s knee that had no cartilage and he got healed. No more pain. I got a word of knowledge for his wife and her shoulder got healed.
