In many of our gospel meetings it is necessary to have security guards hired. Tonight, these four security guards started to escort us on motorcycles from the main road through the streets of the large village. We were about to have our revival meeting in a nicely decorated local church. These armed men escorted us into the meeting. Walking in through the back door, my host family and I entered into the meeting with Pastor Shurram. All of the young people greeted us by throwing flower petals over our heads. Before I started to preach, I was honored with the garland that was placed around my neck. I was also given a beautiful bouquet of flowers.
Almost daily people have been giving their lives to Christ. This happened again tonight. These meetings are very full so when it was time to pray for the people, we had to set up four lines so that myself, two of the pastors and a local evangelist could pray for all of the people personally. As we started to pray, God started doing many miracles among the people. Five people were delivered from demonic power.
An 11-year-old boy came to church with a fractured hand. But as we prayed for his hand, he was healed immediately. I prayed for a man who had tuberculosis. He was instantly healed. Praise the Lord! A woman came up for prayer. Her whole side was paralyzed. She could not raise her arm up or walk properly. But after prayer, she freely raised up her arm and walked about with no restrictions at all!
Another man was brought to us for prayer. This elderly man was a mute who had mind problems and also, half of his body was paralyzed. But after prayer, within seconds he said Hallelujah! Everyone around us started praising the Lord. He then took his cane and raised it up high in the air with the arm that had been paralyzed just minutes before! After that he started to march in place with little effort. Everyone in the church shouted in praise to the Lord as this testimony was shared with everyone!
I am the first American to ever visit these villages and preach God’s word. After the church meeting, we had dinner with the pastor and his staff in one of the member’s homes. After we ate, we learned that several ladies were serving and making our dinner so they were not able to receive prayer. These five ladies lined up. After we prayed for them in the name of Jesus, each one was healed very quickly.
Everybody was so full of joy tonight giving glory to God for the amazing things that he did among the people. The report came back that they have never seen God do so many miracles for so many people. Please continue to pray for our upcoming meetings.

“…the Lord working with them, confirming the Word with signs following . Amen”
Praise God!
