Manifesting the Kingdom of God


Healing through Root Issue Repentance
A person who has a high position in one of the government sectors came to our center along with someone else.  They were told about a missionary, Angela, who is visiting our center.   Angela is a doctor by trade, but also is used by God to heal through getting at root issues.  For many months, this first individual had woken up every morning with pain across the shoulders.   The Lord revealed that the person needed to repent for bitterness and unforgiveness.  After repenting and receiving prayer, the pain left.

The second person was also suffering.   Angela told the individual that, medically, there was nothing wrong.  As she discussed things with the individual, the Lord revealed root issues.  The person had gone to see a witch doctor, and his problems started right after that visit.  Again, after repenting and then receiving prayer, he was completely healed.  Both of these people were Christians.  They left our center pain free, repentant and very happy.

Baby Nurses Again
Our friend, Mr. White’s wife just had a baby.  At the hospital, the baby had been nursing well, but then suddenly stopped drinking and would no longer nurse.  Many relatives were also at the hospital, and wanted to try traditional remedies (getting charms from the witch doctor) to get the baby to begin drinking milk again.  But, Mr. White told them no.  He prayed to the Lord in front of all of them.  He said, “In Jesus name, this baby will eat again.”  After praying, the baby suddenly began to nurse again.  Then, he told the rest of the family about the power of God.

Apprehended by Love
A man came up to me in the outside market (where produce is sold) acting unruly.  The man wouldn’t leave me alone; but instead of responding to him, I was drawn to only respond to the Lord.  As I spoke only what the Lord wanted me to speak the power of those words quieted the man.  For the first time, he listened to me as I told him how the Lord could make him free if he opened his heart to believe in Jesus.  He walked away in peace.

The Father’s Heart
A visiting missionary was sharing in the prison about the Father's heart.  Men of the prison who needed to, repented and forgave their earthly fathers for things they had done to them.  Then they were invited to open their hearts to receive the love that God the Father has for them.  At the end, we invited men to come and receive a hug representing the love Father God has for them.  Many men came, and Victo (who had come with me this time) and I prophesied over them as we hugged them.  The Holy Spirit moved deeply in their hearts as He broke things off of their iives.  It was a beautiful time.

Join with us in thanking God and praying that He would raise up disciples who will carry His heart throughout Mozambique.  Pray that as we preach the gospel, the Lord will give tangible and powerful demonstrations of His kingdom to heal, save, bring freedom and draw people into a life-changing relationship with our Saviour, Jesus Christ!
Love,
