Never tire of seeing miracles

Bucchi Reddy Palem, Andhra Pradesh was the location of our first week in India. We held a five-day gospel & healing festival and a three-day pastor's school.

At the festival, we experienced several miracles. During one of the sermons, I talked about the father's son who was continually thrown into the fire by a demon (Mark 9). At that moment, a demon-possessed lady, who was sitting in the crowd, interrupted the story. Then God took over and showed me what to do!

I said, "Demon, be quiet in Jesus' name." Then I invited the woman forward to the altar so that we could pray for her. Before I finished the sermon, she calmly walked back to her seat, completely set free!

Another miracle was that of a paralyzed 15-year-old girl who lifted her arm over her head for the very first time in her life! And another miracle was that of 12-year-old girl who had been born deaf. Her father wept when God restored her hearing! By God's grace, around 3,600 people will have come to know Jesus Christ during this first week!

God is giving us great favor. During the pastor's school the regional pastors were so grateful for the teaching and encouragement. While we were there, the Oasis team did village evangelism. We were told by the local people that we were the first white people to have ever presented the Gospel of Jesus Christ at their village.

Tomorrow we leave for our next festival and pastor's school. Please continue to stand in prayer; it means so much to India!
