  • Prayer Heals! Recent story of an ear problem healed!

    When it comes to healing, God has provided an endless supply for those who ask. Sometimes healing comes instantaneously and other times we have to wait .

    As an as an evangelist traveling for over 25 years. There are endless stories that I could share where I saw God do incredible things. When it comes to healing, we have to trust God to do it his way, often in the waiting people get discouraged and give up, then wondering why God never healed them. We must trust the process and allow him to do what he does best.

    A recent story of healing and one that was so gratifying was a dear sister in my church. She had been suffering for a few months with one of her ears being stopped up the doctors tried everything drops procedures, antibiotics nothing seemed to help then she found herself getting worse as the other ear was beginning to close off as well. With her hearing fading, she become very discouraged and almost out of faith, but that Sunday morning The Lord impressed upon me to go over and lay my hands on her ears and command them to open in his name so I obeyed. I laid my hands on her ears, prayed that God would open them. I went back to my seat because I know that I’m not the healer. Later in the service she reached over excitedly and said, “my ears just popped open. I can hear better now than I did before this started.”That was probably a month ago and today her ears are still open!

    If you trust God and believe in him, the miracles that he can perform are endless never give up just keep holding on and you too will see Him move in your life.

  • My two youngest got Baptized Sunday

    My two youngest, of my four kids, got Baptized this past Sunday. It was a beautiful day with close family and friends being so supportive and loving. I’m so proud of them for making this decision on their own like I did as a kid.

    Leading up to the Baptisms was a tuff week. I felt like I was being attacked all week from a few people and issues that weren’t from me. The night before and early morning hours of the Baptisms I was having unsettling dreams that seemed to be from the guy downstairs so I prayed to The Man Upstairs, my God, for safety and protection of my kids, all of them, and all of my family because it was a dark attack I was feeling for days. I prayed for my two youngest to make it to their Baptisms and stay safe. Without going into detail these attacks were something I haven’t felt so intense before and it’s been happening for weeks. So many things that could go wrong did go wrong or at least tried too. So many people tried to take the wind out of my sails but it didn’t happen…with prayer and Faith I was able to overcome these attacks.

    I’m not an alarmist or some supernatural strange believer but I know what I was feeling and it was not good, it wasn’t light… it was darkness. Prayer was and is my go-to and this past week it gave me strength and peace in times of some very uncomfortable situations.

    I told my wife about this the morning of the Baptisms and she prayed for us all too. I didn’t want to say anything all week because I didn’t want to alarm her. I’m so very lucky to have such a wonderful wife who is equally yoked with me.
