Learning on the job

The open sewer running through our prayer spot had been freshly cleared this morning which made the smell particularly pungent, we had to re-order our stools a little so nobody had their feet in sewage but otherwise it was a good morning of prayer. We prayed with around nine people altogether although extras came to find us in the project after we had packed away asking for prayer.

We prayed for those with chest pain, skin disease, hip and joint pain, stomach aches, unemployment and family problems. One single mother came for healing for ulcers, she has no husband and no job or business with which to support her kids, the stress she felt was visible so we prayed for healing and peace and for some way to provide for her kids. Two people returned this week, one lady had less pain in her side after we prayed last week and so asked us to pray again. One man had not seen any change since we prayed and did not want us to pray again.

After praying this week, Eunice was telling us how she often feels tired after doing the HotS ministry because sometimes its like the Holy Spirit in her is fighting with other spirits and she is caught in the middle of the battle. She says she has learnt a lot through doing this prayer, particularly in discerning between spirits and learning to listen to God's voice and guidance. So we continue to learn as we go.

  1. Sorry that the man you prayed with before had seen no change, but interesting he came back to tell you nonetheless. Why did he bother???!! Thinking of you all as you continue this ministry, Sue x
