SO
MANY STORIES, SO LITTLE TIME!
Dear
Friends,
Let's
Do It Now!
As
I settled into my seat on the airplane for my ride home
the flight attendant started her announcements and said
that if she seemed a bit touchy it was because she had
an impacted tooth and her jaw was swollen and she was
in a lot of pain. After we reached altitude she started
down the aisle handing out drinks and snacks. After
she asked me what I wanted to drink I said,"if
you will let me pray for you I believe Jesus can heal
that tooth." She said,"Ok", and leaned
down so I could lay my hand on her jaw. I prayed a short
prayer and she said the pain was decreasing. She continued
down the aisle serving the other customers and when
she came back she said the pain was almost completely
gone. After we arrived at our destination, I was exiting
the plane and she was standing at the door with a big
smile on her face and said,"the swelling has gone
down significantly."This is taking healing out
into the marketplace. It's really a lot easier than
you think. Most people are very willing to be prayed
for and expect something to happen! Just go "do
the stuff".
The
last two places I visited were The Lighthouse, in Santa
Rosa, CA, and First United Methodist Church and Heritage
United Methodist Church, both in Tulsa, OK.
The
Lighthouse- Santa Rosa, CA David Anderson who
was traveling with me writes, "This seminar had
a different focus than our usual ones. This seminar
was based on Mike's book, "Why Not Waste Time With
God". It was really fun to speak on this topic,
as it is one of our favorites. Mike spoke on intimacy,
the value of nurturing the soul, and hearing from God.
I gave my testimony of healing and talked about the
role intimacy with the Lord has played in my transformation.
I also spoke on inner healing.
'Saturday night we
had a healing service where the Lord again worked some
incredible miracles. The most dramatic was a woman with
aids. She was in such bad pain all over that she could
barely move and could hardly get out of bed. The pain
in her back was especially bad the night we prayed for
her. As we all bathed her in prayer, the pain left her
back. The lady that picks her up for church on Sunday
morning said that for the first time ever when she went
to pick her up, she was already out of bed, dressed,
and ready to go to church! We are hoping and expecting
to hear some incredible news when she gets her next
blood test.
"The Lord also
brought much inner healing to people throughout the
weekend. A woman who had suffered from some demonic
oppression for years said that during my testimony she
had felt spirits lift off of her and when she went home
that night she felt like a different woman and all she
wanted to do was dance. Our God is so good.
'The
most exciting thing was to see them really catch the
passion that we have of just being with God - without
having to 'do' or to 'talk' or to 'pray' or to 'read
the Bible' or to 'journal'.
'To just enjoy being
in His presence and letting Him be in ours. To show
Him how much we value Him by taking the time to sit
quietly with Him. To put aside all the business and
drivenness of our society to practice solitude and silence.
''Although
it is not a really ''exciting' topic in most of Christendom
and certainly in the eyes of the world, this congregation
really got turned on to it!"
First
United Methodist, Tulsa, OK . Here are some
excerpts from a report they sent me."There were
numerous testimonies of healing during the weekend.
Some are noted here in order to embrace the value of
the stories which are revelations of God in our midst.
Mike explains in his book, 'Every testimony contains
two things. Every testimony is an unveiling of the nature
of God and a revealing of His covenant with man.''"
'Friday evening Mike
gave an overview and taught the model for praying for
physical healing. Sandy Heiser, a long time member of
our church who has been involved in The Ministry of
Counseling Prayer came forward for prayer for chronic
pain as a result of hip surgery she underwent several
months ago. Sandy testified that the pain left her hip
and foot after Mike, and his co-leader, Derrick Steele,
were finished praying. On Saturday, Melissa Martin,
one of our members who had been injured earlier in the
year by trauma to her neck, was healed of pain and the
trauma associated with it.
'Several
other testimonies resulted from prayer at Heritage United
Methodist Church on Sunday, June 8 th . Mike led two
morning worship services as well as an evening healing
service as part of a collaborative initiative between
our church and other churches in Tulsa. Prayer teams
that have been trained during the collaborative training
sessions earlier this year using Mike's book, Learning
to do What Jesus Did , joined Mike and Derrick at
the altar and quite a few people came forward for prayer
at all three services.
'Bob
Althoff, a member of this congregation, prayed for a
man with severe arthritis in both knees. The man reported
significant improvement after prayer. His pain left.
Another woman who complained of arthritis in both knees
received prayer and the pain left. Reduction of pain
was reported in individuals with arthritis, a broken
rib, chest discomfort, and lower back pain. Another
gentleman reported significant reduction in pain after
prayer for shoulder pain.
'A
man emailed the following report: "The burn at
the base of my neck and the tightness was gone Monday.
It has not returned." A woman testified that her
ankle, which had been sprained and very painful since
February, is now able to function normally without the
pain and weakness she had experienced before prayer.
'Skip
Honeyman, one of our members who is involved in the
prayer team ministry testified to a miraculous healing
in his hip after Mike Evans prayed for him outside the
White River Fish Market where several had gone to eat
during the weekend. Skip decided to ask for prayer and
Mike just prayed for him there rather than wait for
the healing service. He has suffered from pain in this
hip for three years after an injury using a ditch witch.
His physical exercise habits have been curtailed all
of this time due to the pain. He experienced instant
healing."

bless,

of the believer to spend time with…no, ‘waste' time

drama of the Father's pursuit of His children.”

"I
strongly recommend reading Mike Evans' new book.
I, for one, found I needed to read it. He is very
honest about his own life and failings, but yet offers
a hopeful and practical solution to the problem so many
of us have: spending too much time working for God and
so little time just "wasted," listening in
His presence. Mike writes movingly about how we
can change our lives to grow in intimacy with our God."

MacNutt, Founder Christian Healing Ministries, Jacksonville,

"A
French acrobat once climbed to the top of a skyscraper
with his five year old son on his back. When they came
down, someone asked the child, 'were you scared up there?'
Surprised by the question, the boy replied, 'No, I wasn't.
My daddy was holding me.'"
If you want to have this lovely story become your personal
experience, read Mike Evans' powerful book on the irreplaceable
importance of 'holy loitering' with God." - Brennan
Manning, author of “The Ragamuffin Gospel."

I
heartily recommend Mike Evans' manual on prayer
ministry. I know Mike personally and he is eminently
practical, as well as being a sound, balanced teacher
in the areas of both healing and deliverance.
This book would be an excellent guide if you yourself
want to learn how to pray for healing or, better yet
to train a prayer team for your church." Francis
MacNutt, Ph.D., Founder, Christian Healing Ministries,
Author; Healing, Deliverance From Evil Spirits, Overcome
By The Sprit.
I
found Mike Evans' training manual very helpful indeed.
It contains many important teachings that are crucial
in helping believers come into emotional and personal
freedom. Today more than ever believers need to
be strong within, so there is strength and inner resources
to minister outward to others and do the works of God.
