If you have not read or do not remember message "Miracles: 100 at 1 Church" #553, please read it now using the first link below.Many of you readers have wondered if the miracles there were real. I also wondered. Here is how I know they are having true miracles there:
They have three Sonday services; two morning and one evening. I arrived at the church forty-five minutes before the first service so I could get a seat near the front. I was too late. There were already hundreds of people there. The best seat I could find was the end (side) seat in the fourth row.
The sanctuary there is unusual in that it is twice or more wide than deep. The platform (stage) is curved way outward into the sanctuary and the rows of seats follow the same curve. This made my seat at the end of row four directly sideways from the pastor when he came forward to teach.
The praise and worship was long and intense as it is in our church. The subject of miracles began when the pastor named a medical problem and pointed into the congregation. A person where he pointed did have this problem. This could be expected in a smaller church, but there were 600 people there (my estimate) and approximately 100 of them were visitors (he asked later for visitors to raise their hands).
He and nearly everyone else prayed for the person he pointed to for the medical problem he named and she was healed then during the praying. The pointing, naming the problem, praying, and healing continued with several other men and women. I stayed for second service and more medical problems were named and more people pointed to and every one of them claimed to be healed.
It was nearly impossible to move after each service. The aisles were immediately filled with people and I could not get to any of the people who were healed. I wanted to ask about their doctors and medical treatment so I could later confirm they did have miracle healings, but I had to wait until evening service when there would be fewer people.
I arrived one hour and fifteen minutes early that evening and there were already 150 - 200 people there. I deliberately sat in the same seat again although somewhat better seats were available. The service came to the time of healings and the pastor identified four or five people who were each healed.
He then did something he had not done during the first two services. He turned sideways to his right and pointed straight out toward the side of the front rows and was pointing at exactly me. People in the three rows in front of me were between me and the pastor due to the curvature of the rows which I mentioned earlier. He made it obvious that he meant me and not anyone between us when he arched his hand pointing up and over indicating the last person along that line, me.
I felt sudden movement in my left shoulder. The shoulder had been damaged during my operation in 1999 when they had me cut open like a beef carcass with my arms tied stretched out above my head and pulled backwards. The joint was very painful whenever I raised my elbow at all. I had never raised it over shoulder level for eight years and rarely that high due to the extreme pain. Now I thought it had been healed and raised both arms in Praise to the only God who heals, Heavenly Father YAHWEH. There was no more pain and has not been any since then.
Keep in your mind that this pastor did not know me. No person at that church knew me. They knew only that I was a visitor. Even subscribers to my messages of eight years did not know my shoulder was injured. Even most of my friends did not know. The only way this pastor could have known about me was for HOLY SPIRIT which JESUS left to be with us believers told the pastor.
God does still talk to us and act for us today. His name is YAHWEH, He sent His Son JESUS to help us, and they left HOLY SPIRIT with us permanently. It is all explained in The Bible.
BIBLE VERSES (Amplified unless noted):
Luke 11:13 "If you then, evil as you are, know how to give good gifts [gifts that are to their advantage] to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask and continue to ask Him!"
John 14:26 "But the Comforter (Counselor, Helper, Intercessor, Advocate, Strengthener, Standby), the Holy Spirit, Whom the Father will send in My name [in My place, to represent Me and act on My behalf], He will teach you all things. And He will cause you to recall (will remind you of, bring to your remembrance) everything I have told you."Please forward this to everyone.
