Chris was the one to share the message that morning, but he felt the Lord wanted to heal. In faith, instead of sharing the message that Chris had to prepare, he asked if anyone in the room was in pain and wanted to receive healing. Almost half the people in the room stood up. Then those around them prayed for healing and God showed up! After the prayer time, several people came to the front to share what had happened. One girl on staff was actually going to make an appointment that morning because of this pain she had in her jaw and was totally healed! Others had cronic pain in their bodies that they just accepted as part of their life, but that pain and been removed! There were more that wanted to share, but the time had run out! How AWESOME is our God!
We know the Lord is reminding us to have faith that He can and wants to heal the Taiwanese people that are all around us. Although we were on Furlough after this happened we wondered how we could have this continue to be a part of our lifestlye, to see God moving in supernatural ways in our normal day to day. A friend mentioned a way to cultivate this kind of community, a community of faith for the impossible, she suggested to celebrate God, through the big and small miracles. To celebrate how awesome and wonderful our Lord is! To celebrate the healings, even if its a headache being lifted because its not a small thing that the Creator of the universe has touched us. In the past I do believe there have been times that God healed and I just thought, "wow", but did nothing more. Maybe doubted or wondered if it was really God or a coincidence. Now I realize that that's wrong and that celebrating God is not only necessary to give Him the Glory, but also a reminder to us to continue to have humble and grateful hearts.
I am hungry to see God move again, and more and more. That the Taiwanese people too can experience our God that loves and is not limited. A God that cares and is so involved with everything in our lives! Let's celebrate Him today! In the big and the small!
Yay God!!! You are awesome! We celebrate you today! and everyday! For the very breathe in our lungs, we celebrate and thank you!!!
