Lady receives healing and joy in the Selma St. Neighborhood!



 On Saturday at Selma I saw the word "Cancer" in prayer before we hit the streets. When we went tout I met a woman and asked if she needed prayer for anything, she told me that her friend who was standing nearby needed prayer because her mother had cancer. Her friend came over and I explained to her what God showed me about cancer before we went out. I told her that God wanted her to know how much He cared about what her mom was going through. I prayed for her mom and then we prophesied over both of them. I got a word of knowledge for the first women about arthritis and problems with her knee. She said that both words were right. She had arthritis in her fingers and a plate in her knee. They were bothering her, but after prayer she said they weren't bothering her any more. She said that her knee "Wasn't bothering her right now". Her whole continuance changed. She was happy and didn't want to leave us!   

Man's back restored!

Last Saturday, Meredith and I went to a food outreach at the Children's Rescue Center. We got in line to get some food and one of the ladies behind the counter told me that the guy in front of me had back problems and that he had had surgery. She told the guy that I could pray for him. He sat down and ate his food. After he was done I came over to him and asked about his back and asked if I could pray for him. He told me that he had chronic back pain and that the pain level was at a 3 (0 - 10) at the moment. I laid hands on his back and commanded the pain to go and for restoration. His pain level went to 0 and he said that it felt way better. He said "I would't lie to you! I feel great!" ha ha come on Jesus!

Lady gets healed, saved and encounters Holy Spirit!

One Tuesday I was walking down liberty street to see what would happen. I began to declare God's heart for the neighborhood. As I was walking a lady and a man stepped out onto their porch and waved at me. They were on the other side of the street. I waved back and smiled. They then motioned for me to come up to them and sit with them on their porch. Right away the lady asked what I was doing walking on the street. I told her that I was releasing the love and the manifest presence of Jesus into my neighborhood. I then asked if either of them needed prayer. The man said "I don't need prayer or want your prayer."!The lady said she couldn't think of anything. I then got a word of knowledge about back pain due to a car accident. I said "Which one of you has back pain due to a car accident?" The guys eyes got bigger and he said, "that is her!" I then asked if I could pray for her and she said yes. I began to pray for her back and as I prayed I got more words of knowledge. Specifics on where the pain was and that she hadn't been able to sleep on her back for a long time. It was all true. I then prophesied over her and encouraged her. After I prayed for her I asked how she felt. She said it was hard to tell. I told her that I felt she would notice a difference because she would be able to sleep on her back "tonight". I told her I would stop by another day to check and see how her back was.

The following week on Monday I was sitting in my living room reading a Reinhard Bonnke. In the book Reinhard teaches that if you present Jesus as healer then He will heal and if you present Him as savior he will save! Right away I thought of the lady on Liberty St. So I got up and walked over to her house. She invited me in to sit with her in her living room. I asked her about her back and she said she was able to sleep on her back that night and that the pain was gone. She had a big smile on her face. I asked her if she had ever had someone share with her what it meant to be born again. She said no. So I asked if I could share with her. She said yes, so I shared with her about what it meant to be born again and she wanted to be. So right there in her living room she gave her heart to Jesus and was born again! I then had her hold out her hands like she was going to receive a gift (Holy Spirit) and I floated my hands above hers. I simply said come Holy Spirit and she felt fire and electricity go through her hands and her body! We were both getting rocked by the presence of God. I then stopped praying and she sat down in her chair. I said "How are you feeling?"and she looked at me and was all glazed over and said, "Man I feel weird! This feels good!" ha ha ha

So she was healed, saved and encountered Holy Spirit. Bam!

Man in park encounters the goodness of God and neck and back loosen!

Stephen and I were out in the Selma Neighborhood bringing the love and presence of Jesus to the community. We were walking along the sidewalk and we saw a man in the park sitting on a bench, drinking some beer. We were both drawn to him. Right away I got a word of knowledge about back pain on the right side of the back, in the center area. We walked up to him and introduced ourselves. I told him why we were there and I shared with him the word of knowledge I got. It ended up he had back pain on the right side in the center area. He was very taken back! He seemed to be a no non sense kind of guy. Very honest. He told us he was raised in the church, but he wasn't to open to being healed. He said his life got really hard when his father passed away. He told us he loved his father very much. After that he started drinking a lot and he ended becoming homeless. After talking with him for awhile, Stephen convinced him to let us pray for him, we laid hands on his back and as we were praying for his back Stephen got a word of knowledge about tightness in his neck that caused headaches. We prayed for that as well. After we were done praying he said, "You got me!" he was shocked at the accuracy of our words of knowledge. We asked him how he was feeling and he said, "I'm not gonna lie to you guys, I feel great, everything has loosened up and I feel like I could run a marathon!" After that we spent a good 20 minutes listening to his story and encouraging him with prophetic words. By the end he said, "I like you guys, you have really made my day. Thank you for stopping to talk with me."

Girl with scoliosis restored!

At one of the meetings, when we were in Virginia speaking in a discipleship training school; we saw a girl with scoliosis restored. Micah called out a word of knowledge for back and shoulder pain and three people came forward. While one man was dramatically encountering the power of Holy Spirit, the girl next to him fell to the floor and started crying and laughing at the same time! Micah walked over to her and started praying for her. Then she got up and ended up telling us that she had scoliosis and that it affected her sleep, she had consistent pain, she couldn't bend over very far and she couldn't sleep on her back. We saw that her shoulders were out of alignment and one leg was shorter than the other. We sat her down in a chair and prayed for her hip and leg. Her right leg grew out a little over an inch. As it was growing out she covered her face with her hands and was saying "Oh my gosh! I can feel it moving!" We had her stand up and instantly all the pain was gone. She was able to bend over and touch the floor. Her shoulders were aligned. Her back would crack before, but after we prayed the cracking stopped. At that point Stephen went over to her and felt to sing over her. As he was singing "You make all things!" a young man with a knee problem said to himself, "I will take that!" and the pain in his knee instantly left!! Micah prophesied over her that she would sleep on her back again and that she would have no pain in her sleep. The next day we saw her again and she was able to lay on her back pain free. That night she went home and fell asleep on her back and the next morning she "woke up on her back without pain." She told that that was the first time she was able to sleep on her back in a long time. She said that her right leg was sore because it had been stretched! ha ha ha Yay God!

Unexpected checks come in

One Sunday night in the Kingdom Culture School, Pastor Doug Roe from Dayton Vineyard was speaking on encountering the fathers love. At one point he declared over the whole congregation that people would receive unexpected checks in the mail. Shortly after that two men who were present that night said they had received unexpected checks! 

Man encounters God and goes from despair to hope

Last Saturday before we went out on the streets we were praying and asking God what was in His heart. One of the men on the team heard this phrase "What brought you to this conclusion about God?". He had a sense that we were going to run into some body who needed this question. As we were walking the streets looking for people to love on, we saw a man exiting a beer drive thru. We approached him and asked him if there was anything we could pray for in his life. He instantly began to push us away saying, "Have you heard what is going on in the world today!?" He specifically said he did not want to hear about the goodness of God and was about to get on his bike and leave. We tried to shake his hand and he even refused our handshake.The man who had heard the "phrase" prier to going out on the streets said to him, "You are the guy I have been looking for! What brought you to that conclusion about God?" This question caused him to stop from leaving and he got off of his bike to have a conversation with us. He explained to us how all of the evil in the world today caused him to question the goodness of God. At that point we began to give him encouraging prophetic words and called out the value in him. We could tell he his heart was beginning to soften up and he was willing to let us pray for him. He let us shake his hand and as we prayed for him he began to laugh and said, "I can feel that!" He encountered the presence of God and began to experience hope. We explained to him that he was experiencing the God of all hope. As he was leaving he told us that he was going to begin to open up his heart to God and that we had really surprised him. By the end we both gave him a hug and he was all smiles. He got rocked with the goodness of God!!

Young boy pushes his wheelchair home

In the spring of 2012 we were in Stockton California on a Kingdom Culture mission trip. One Saturday during our time there we were helping a local ministry pass out bags of groceries to the poor and needy.  After passing out all the bags we met a young boy who was in a wheelchair out in the parking lot. He was in the wheelchair due to a condition in his brain that caused his legs not to function properly. He said that he wanted to be able to walk, so some of our students and staff laid hands on his head and began to pray for his brain to be healed. After praying for a little while, me and the other staff member at the time pulled him up out of the wheelchair and began to walk with him. Before long he began to walk on his own without falling to the ground! I was so dumbfounded by the whole thing that I honestly thought that maybe he could walk the whole time and that it was just a joke that he was in a wheelchair! He was walking so well I almost didn't believe it. At that moment I looked over at his mother who was across the parking lot and she was dumping tears! Then I knew it was real. His mother explained to us (with tears running down her face) that her son could not do that before we all prayed for him. The young boy put their bag of groceries in his wheelchair and we watched him push it home without any help from others. Praise God!!

Two drunk men encounter the love of Jesus!

Name: Micah Level

Where: In the community

A few weeks back we were out in the Selma Neighborhood. We went into the park and I was drawn to two men sitting on the park bench. They were both drinking and were yelling at one another. I got an impression that one of them had neck pain. I walked up to them and just stated why I was there, simply bringing the love and manifest presence of Jesus into the neighborhood. I then boldly and frankly asked, "which one of you has neck pain?" instantly tears filled one of the man's eyes and he said, "That's me!" I told him that Jesus was going to heal him right then and there and I asked if we could pray for him. I began to pray for him and he started to cry even more and said that the pain was gone. I then began to prophecy Jeremiah 29:11 over his life, then the others that were with me began to prophecy over him as well. In his tears he said, "Man this is crazy, my friend over here said the same thing to me earlier when he sat down on the bench with me. He said God had a plan for me!" I then looked over at the other man (Older man) and proceeded to tell him that he had a prophetic anointing on his life and shared 1 Corinthians 12 with him. I asked him to pray with me for his buddy. He looked at me and said "You do that!" I then took his hand and began to declare more words over the other mans life. As I was speaking these things over him, I looked over at the older man who's hand I was holding and Holy Spirit was encountering him. He was dumping tears and crying like a little child. I then shifted over to him and began to pray for him and he said "Man, wooo, I feel him!" I told him that it was Holy Spirit. As they were both crying they were both saying, "I thought he had forgotten us! I thought he had left us!" I told them that Jesus loved them and that he never left them and that he was coming in His goodness. All the others with me gave strong encouraging words over their lives as well. We also prayed for them to be sobered and filled with the Holy Spirit. They were totally encouraged and were rocked by God's love.

Man encounters God on park bench

Name: Micah Level

Where: In the community 

A few Saturdays back we were out in the community at the Clark Gas Station on Selma Rd. and a thought went through my head about a man wearing a black hat. We left Clark's and walked over to the park and I noticed to men sitting on a bench, and one was wearing a black hat. I approached them and said, "Hey! We are out here bringing the love and manifest presence of Jesus Christ into your neighborhood. As we were walking by I was drawn to you both." As I was talking I got an impression that the man with the black hat had pain in his body and that he had arthritis. I proceeded to boldly tell him that he had pain and arthritis in his body and he said that he did. I prayed for him and he encountered the presence of God and said he felt better and that his back felt looser. I then began to prophecy over him and call out his destiny. I asked if he new the Lord and if he had invited him into his life. He said that he did know the Lord. He was deeply encouraged and touched by God.
