August Update

Testimonies from Ministry in Brazil..

All glory to God! Great things have happened in the last couple weeks as both my friend, Colleen, and I ministered in different cities and states in Brazil! We had originally planned to travel and minister together, but the Lord adjusted our schedule! 

Some of you knew my Visa was delayed again. I stayed stateside to wait and hear from the Lord while Colleen went ahead of me to Brazil and ministered through dance, prayer, preaching, and discipleship. The Lord opened the door for her to return to a city she ministered in last year with a team from Springfield, MO. To hear more about the testimonies, check out her Facebook page- Colleen Klein.

I arrived in Brazil 5 days later than anticipated, and Colleen and I ministered on opposite sides of the country for a short time apart. While I was in Manaus (Amazon state), I was met with discipleship on the first night to a young girl hungry for more revelation and intimacy with Jesus. The Spirit of the Lord came powerfully as she let the Lord meet her. The Lord came with healing and His sweet presence, reminding her that she is accounted for by her Father in Heaven, not abandoned. What a precious time it was! 

On the last night in Manaus, I preached in a hungry church about stepping into the greater that Jesus offers us in friendship and in partnership. When the invitation was extended for prayer to step into the more, the entire body stepped out to answer the call of Jesus! We prayed over families, young people, and prophetically ministered to individuals.

Colleen and I finally met in Rio de Janiero a few days ago to minister in an English service in Barra Da Tijuca. On Saturday night, we spent hours in worship yelling, singing, whispering, and crying out in adoration. We had an altar call for anyone desiring healing, emotionally specifically. Many people were walked through forgiveness, some weeping on the floor. One girl specifically asked for physical healing in her lower back. She had continuous pain when she reached for something, turned or bent. We prayed and the Lord healed her in that moment! She jumped up and down and bent all around as we laughed and praised the Lord! Upon seeing her the next night, she approached me to tell me that her back still had no pain and no problems. It also turned out that my translator had back pain too and in faith, she had this healed girl pray over her. Afterward, she also was healed! Thank you, God!

The next evening while leaving the church, a few of us unexpectedly ministered to a homeless man and daughter. The daughter desired to have the Holy Spirit live inside her, so we led her through prayer to invite Jesus Christ into her life. Tears were streaming out of her eyes as she cried out looking heavenward inviting the Holy Spirit to come into her heart. Afterward we laughed and danced on the street so as to join the party in Heaven! 

What an awesome God we serve- He who mends the broken hearts, heals physical bodies, restores hope to the hopeless, forgives sin and makes new a man!

What is next?
Tomorrow afternoon I will fly to Recife to return to Shores of Grace. There I will spend the next 3 months. I look forward to again join what God is doing in Recife!
