"But Peter said, 'I have no
silver or gold, but what I have I give you, in the name of Jesus Christ of
Nazareth, stand up and walk.' And he took him by the right hand and raised him
up; and immediately his feet and ankles were made strong. Jumping up, he stood
and began to walk, and he entered the temple with them, walking and leaping and
praising God" (Acts 3:6-9).
Last night, the young man
we were praying for opened his eyes and slowly began to lift his right arm up
... then higher ... then higher ... then rotating it full circle, fully extended
... shouting and praising God! His pain level that had been at a 9 out of 10
from an immobilized shoulder from a bad fall down the stairs a few days ago was
completely gone! Joy erupted in the hallway where he had been on the way to the
bathroom, but instead had a miraculous healing encounter with Jesus the Healer
at the Kingdom Life Anglican Church in Naples.
I was just taking a little
break after praying for a couple who came in for their prayer time barely
speaking to each other, but left with arms around each other, embracing hope and
exuding forgiveness, with many tears turned to great joy. They had had an
encounter with Jesus the Healer!
So much of what we see in
this ministry You've entrusted to us of inner healing-"healing from the inside
out" takes time. I often have to remind myself that it's "through faith and
patience" that "we inherit the promises" (Hebrews 6:12). But last night in
Naples, You were moving in the miraculous realm of "immediately" and "suddenly."
How exciting! And how encouraging!
I thank You, Lord, for
every way You choose to move in our lives through the power of Your love and the
mercy of Your grace. Whether immediately and suddenly or step by step and layer
by layer, You love us and You are for us. You want us healed and whole, forgiven
and free. "Bless the Lord, O my soul, and do not forget all His benefits-who
forgives all your iniquity, who heals all your diseases, who redeems your life
from the Pit, who crowns you with steadfast love and mercy, who satisfies you
with good as long as you live so that your youth is renewed like the eagle's"
(Psalm 103:2-5). Praise Your holy and mighty name, O Lord. In Jesus' name I
pray, Amen.
Be encouraged today! In
the Love of Jesus, Tommy

Friends, please keep us in
prayer for several days of ministry in Naples, Florida this week at
Kingdom Life Anglican Church. Then I leave from here to go to the
nation of Estonia, a former Soviet Republic to teach and minister at the annual
Pastor's Conference with all the Methodist pastors from accross the country in a
very strategic opportunity. Please keep Sylvia in prayer for complete healing
from health issues that are hindering her travel. And as you can imagine, we
need constant prayer covering for our marriage, family, health,
finances, and ministry out here on the front lines of the spiritual battle every
day.
