Global Awakening Brazil Mission Trip, March 2019 …..
This was my first mission trip, an experience that would profoundly shape my life.
During the trip, I encountered a young boy, approximately ten years old, who lamented about his swiftly deteriorating eyesight. Despite fervent prayers and covering his eyes with my hands, there was no immediate improvement. Repeated prayers yielded no change, prompting me to summon my wife, Peggy, to help discern why the boy remained unresponsive to my prayers.
During Peggy’s interview with the mother, she inquired about any familial history of eye problems, to which the response was affirmative. It became evident that such issues were generational, prompting us to guide them in prayer to break free from any generational curses. Further probing uncovered that the mother had battled a tumor behind her ear three years prior, which had impacted both her eyesight and hormonal balance. Through treatment, she experienced healing. This revelation led her to speculate that her son’s eye ailment and complaints of hearing loss might also be linked to this medical history.
The boy suffered from deafness in his left ear. Placing my hands on both ears, I earnestly prayed for the restoration of his hearing. Despite our efforts, initially, there was no noticeable change even after gently speaking and snapping fingers near his left ear. Undeterred, Peggy and I persisted in prayer, commanding healing for his left ear. Gradually, there was a glimmer of improvement, prompting us to intensify our prayers. Finally, a smile broke across the boy’s face as he announced that he could hear clearly, with both ears now functioning at 100 percent.
When I snapped my fingers by John’s left ear and asked him something, there was no response initially.
While there was still the issue with the boy’s deteriorating eyesight, Peggy engaged in a conversation with the mother, discovering that her pastor had shared a prophetic message a year earlier about her ability to pray for her son’s healing. Sensing that the Holy Spirit intended to bolster her faith through this prophetic revelation, Peggy encouraged her to lay hands on her son’s eyes. Initially overwhelmed and uncertain, she expressed her doubts, shaking and crying saying “I don’t know how or what to do.” However, Peggy reassured her to allow God to guide her actions. Witnessing this moment of surrender, we observed as God worked through the mother, pouring out His love and healing power onto her son.
Hallelujah, Gloria Deus! Witnessing the boy leaving with his family, no longer wearing his glasses, served as a tangible testament to the transformative power of faith and prayer. It was a moment filled with awe and gratitude, reaffirming the boundless capabilities of God’s love and healing.
