Praise Reports

A pair of Jehovah's Witnesses came to Bonnie's door this week who had really practiced their speech. They opened their book to the middle saying that everyone these days are really afraid and asked if she was. Bonnie said emphatically that no she was not afraid but she was looking forward to what was coming. They were speechless. She gave them her testimony of healing and said she would pray for them. They left but asking her first what church did she attend?

George testified that he has experienced divine intervention and an extraction of time. Again he is still doing renovations and one wall was giving him a hard time. He could not get the paint right. One coat, two coats, two more, and another coat of paint. Have you ever planned something that you think will turn out right and it turns out to be wrong? Plans are of the Lord. He knew it wasn't right and he couldn't convince himself it was good. George prayed to the Lord admitting his mistakes and that he needed help and that he really did not want to do it all over again having to remove eight layers of paint. He kept thinking of the time the effort the paint and the mess and shame of it. He heard the Lord say to take it off. So he reached towards the paint and it as like a cartoon, like time travel, the painted peeled right off like a sticker to the drywall. The paint was blood red. It took off his mistakes and gave him a fresh start.

Six months ago when he was working on the renovations at Suzanne's house where the basement looked like a horror movie it was in such disrepair but there was not enough finances to do anything about it.The water overflowed downstairs to shin high level. Everything was trashed. You should be careful what you pray for. The insurance has paid for everything to be repaired. Now the downstairs is like a palace. Charge the atmosphere for what you want.

Last Sunday there was an altar call for new beginnings and Tony responded and came to the front for prayer. He had a cigarette addiction that has hindered his spiritual life. But today he is free from it.
From twenty two years of smoking cigarettes. It as hard to intensify with the guilt. He wanted to have control but now satan is still coming at him making it the hardest thing he has ever had to do in his life.

Bonnie has testified a few months ago that she was healed of some growths. She has been giving her testimony of healing to everyone she meets. She has been suffering financial difficulties since she was abandoned by her husband. Her mortgage payments have been lowered by the favour of God. Bonnie said she has been 'chased down the street with blessings'. Since the Lord healed her she feels the anointing in her body like a tingling all over and it happens multiple times a day as she is believing to be further healed from fibromyalgia. She has been on strong pain medication when one morning the pain did not seem so bad so she did not take the medication and she has had no withdrawal symptoms and is no longer taking the pain medication. She is being blessed time and time again. Because she was unable to drive a car, she needed a ride to church and Kevin called her to ask if she needed a ride which was an answer to her prayer. She has been to the doctor who has told her she no longer needs the medication so she is able to drive again after six years and he will not need to make house calls to her any longer. Bonnie had been stuck in her bedroom for three months at a time and now she sees the glory of God in the trees, the birds, the snow, the squirrels and all the life He has created that she was unable to appreciate for so long. She has been able to attend a movie with her daughter again. She had a cracked tooth and had to see the dentist who waived the fee of $75 for her.She said she cannot express her gratitude to the Lord. She had thought she was born again but now she feels that she has grown exponentially and is on fire for Him. The church is agreeing with Bonnie for a car.

George is still visiting with his Canadian family and is doing some renovations. One of the neighbours is not a friendly man but George always spoke to him. He learned that the man had gone through much in life and in George's words 'life can give you a sucker punch sometimes'. George witnessed to the man about the goodness of God in a mild sort of way with out too much religious talk but just being men in conversation. While George was doing the renovations he was listening to some teaching tapes on the wealth transfer. The neighbour soon learned he had to move and George was able to help the neighbour who was not close to anyone. The neighbour then gave thousands of dollars worth of clothes, vanities, entertainment systems, patio furniture to George - this was suddenly a wealth transfer.

Suzanne testified that she was encouraging us to have hope for the small things in life as well as the more important issues. Her fridge had a shelf break and so because she prays about everything, she prayed for a fridge. She was searching the ads on kijiji and found on page twelve a black fridge but since it has been posted November 17th she didnt think it would still be available since it was now January. She called and the gentleman said no one had called but her and it was the perfect match to her other kitchen appliances. The fridge was three hundred and fifty dollars. She was given that exact amount of money as a gift by the son of a woman she was caring for recently who passed away.

Kevin testified that for approximately two years at work he has been harassed and bullied by a superintendent making his work environment affect his home life. Kevin met with Apostle Victor after church one Wednesday evening and he prayed for the superintendent that it was his last chance to get right or he would be fired. The man was on vacation that week of the prayer. The next Monday the superintendent came back to work and asked how things were doing. Kevin was on light duty due to a sprained ankle. The superintendent took Kevin to the office to see check how he was which was surprising. For the past two to three months the superintendent has left him alone. This past Tuesday in a meeting that morning, the superintendent announced that he was demoted to another location in the company. Pray for that man to know the Lord.

Carol traveled to India in 1986 and has a heart for the people. In the past several years she has been searching for a particular sofa when recently she located one for sale privately. She was greeted by an elderly Indian woman who was very friendly and liked the dove pin Carol was wearing so she pinned it on the woman praying for her salvation. She purchased the sofa from the family who invited her to stay with them for dinner. She noticed that the mother limped and it was from a injury twenty years before and was very painful. Carol invited the family to church and they called her this morning and the mom and grandmother have come to the service.
