Prayer & Praise
September 01, 2010
"The tumors were so large I could feel them with my hand," said 35 year old Nelly in Peru. "A friend invited to me to see the JESUS Film. After seeing the film, I was at home when my stomach began to cause me terrible pain. I learned I had two tumors in my stomach. The pain was so great I could not breathe. I thought I was going to die so, I asked my husband to call the pastor and JESUS Film team members. They prayed with me as I asked God for forgiveness. I accepted Jesus as my Lord. The pastor also prayed over the two big tumors. As the pastor was praying, the tumors disappeared. God did it! God used the pastor to help me. I'm very happy because of the miracle He did in my life. This is something I cannot forget. When my husband saw the miracle of God in my life, He accepted Jesus in his heart too. Thanks to God. I will serve Him."
Praise God for His healing love!
"Jesus is the center of my life," said Oleko in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. "I was a prostitute until I met Jesus. I am grateful to Christ for taking my sins on the cross. I left my heart in the hands of Jesus. He is my protector. God saved me."
Pray for Oleko as she lives a new life centered in Christ.
"Pray for the souls," said the team member in the Dominican Republic. "We showed the JESUS Film to people who were open to the message. It was a blessing as we saw the people impacted by God's love. Join with us in praying for those who came to know Christ."
Pray for the new believers in the Dominican Republic.
