Hi Friends,
This morning, we started off with a brief talk with the Kids camp leaders to help them institute some discipline with the kids. They’re having a lot of fun, but needed to know that they need to sit still and listen during the Bible story times.
And it worked! The kids were more behaved but still lots of fun.
Today, we had a difficult BIble story to communicate. The Bible story emphasized the power of sin. It was the story of the 10 plagues during the Exodus. I did a pretty good job of narrating and making sure the kids got the point but knew they would not be punished in a similar way.
Then we played a game of Turtle Freeze tag. It was awesome fun and we didn’t break any church furniture (Pastor Dennis appreciates this). Then when all the crazies left… a nap.
That evening we had an Evening service. I talked a little about healing, answered some questions and then ministered. Fun Fun Fun!
One lady healed of back pain since 6 years. Today her pain was even more severe. That would have stopped some people from coming to the service. But why is that so? We need to be in the presence of God if we expect God to move. And guess what, we didn’t even pray. She was just healed in Gods presence. I told her it was done and she as surprised, but she was healed! Yeah God!
For the next person, I had Tetsuo, one of the youth, prayed for man and he was healed of hip pain.
Thelma will be healed of painful water spot. Pain left. Now the spot will disappear. When I first asked her if she had pain, she said yes because the spot was still there. But actually the Lord took the pain away although the spot remained. She looked for the pain again and found that it was gone. We have to believe first and then see. That’s how faith worked.
God healed a lady of shoulder pain after a quick prayer. She requested earlier that we meet with her so I assisted Pastor Dennis in an inner healing session with her. She said she felt so light after she canceled some of her ungodly decrees.
All in all, I just had a great time doing and teaching as Jesus did.
Blessings!
Pastor Arlen
