This is Big John… his body was all jacked up! now its not!
John came up to me for prayer yesterday because he had flat feet and needed some arches. While praying he told me that he was in a car accident 10 years ago and had been living with incredible pain for the past 10 years!!! His neck, his back, his knees and his feet were all crap! He had even had surgery before but nothing really helped. So i called a couple of kiwi friends over and this is what happened…
-John had flat feet. Now he has arches!
-John had one leg shorter than the other. It grew out!
-John had constant pain in his knees. Now he doesn’t!
-John had constant pain in his back… Not anymore!
-John couldn’t move his neck without pain and popping. Now he has full, pain free and popping free mobility!!
Jesus loves you and your body!
my passion is unarmed.
I try to practice my warlike tactics
but in your clutch, in your touch
my armor, just collapses
this is andrew
he had kidney stones all his life… now he doesn’t.
- the other night me and andrew were closing up the restaurant and finishing side work, when i felt like God was telling me that andrew had pain in his wrist. turns out he did. I asked if i could pray for him and he eagerly said yes and told me to pray for his kidney stones too. He said he has had kidney stones nearly his entire life and that they never pass through causing him to have surgery once or twice a year!…(the dude has to have surgery twice a year because of kidney stones! what!!?) he has even lost multiple jobs because of these things! i forget the words he used but basically his body doesn’t breakdown stuff the way it should and the doctors don’t know how to fix it.
so we prayed really quick and didnt feel anything happen…. the next morning i received the text above (make sure you read it… its a good one!) and a voicemail explaining how freaked out he was because he passed a kidney stone and that never happens to him… NEVER!
not only did he pass a kidney stone but he passed it with NO PAIN!!??! ive personally never heard anything like it….passing a kidney stone is usually compared to giving birth! anyway… his life is a lot better now!
This is Kody… the juggernaut!
every time i see him Holy Spirit jumps inside of me and starts giggling like a silly school girl! There is so much excitement going on in Heaven about him right now! we cant really pin-point when or even how we met ….but we think it was at a house party? maybe? come to think of it… i cant remember how i met any of the 4 guys in his house… God just kinda pulled us together.
anyway ive been hanging out with kody at least once a week for the past 4 or 5 months and about 3 months ago he decided to give his life… like truly give his life to God, not just say a prayer but a lifestyle of, “GOD! THIS WORLD HAS NOTHING FOR ME. ALL I WANT IS YOU! MAKE ME BURN FOR YOU!”
its been incredible to watch him grow. he’s the JUGGERNAUT! he started moving and nothing can stop him! ive watched him run through some straight CRAZY stuff and never slow down. bottom line is… he knows nothing satisfies but God.
and… and! and! aaannnnnndddd…. he got baptized by Holy Spirit last night and received the gift of tongues!
hmmm… its crazy… the people you meet at house parties
This is John.
-he didn’t know God… now he does.
My good friend luke and i went to a soccer game the other day. On the way there we decided that a girls soccer game at a junior college would be incredibly boring without Holy Spirit. So when we arrived at the game we did what any normal christian would do… we walked over to a group of random strangers and started getting words of knowledge. We ended up getting words for everyone in the group, 5 of which needed healing in their bodies… so we prayed… and they all got healed! Ankles, backs, asthma, knees, arms… God healed it all! pretty snazzy stuff eh?
i struck up a conversation with one of the guys who had just been healed. As we talked i found out that he was in his early 20’s and had never, in his entire life, experienced God in a personal way! So we laid our hands on him… because thats the sort of thing me and luke like to do. When we did Holy Spirit showed up and this 20 something year old was immediately overcome with the reality that God was very real, very near and very VERY good!
I casually asked: “do you want to give your life to Jesus and be changed forever?”
his reply: “yeah!.. i like this stuff.”
Of course he liked “this stuff!” who doesn’t like Gods goodness?!
Romans 2:4 …”Gods goodness leads men to repentance.”
and thats the story of how John met Jesus. (:
This is Greg.
-he had suffered from scoliosis for over 20 years…. and now he doesn’t.
Last friday me and my friend Luke were hanging out in class when he got a word of knowledge that Greg had something going on in his back. We prayed for him and God straightened his back out! He lived in pain for over 20 years and was healed in just over 20 seconds. Gregs life will never be the same because he was touched by the simplicity of Gods goodness… aka the gospel. This healing led to about 4 or 5 other people getting healed of other stuff that i cant seem to remember right now. But God obviously didn’t like that they were in pain. (:
psalm 35:9-10
And my soul shall rejoice in the LORD; It shall exult in His salvation.
All my “BONES” will say, “LORD, who is like You, Who delivers the afflicted from him who is too strong for him, And the afflicted and the needy from him who robs him?”
NEW ZEALAND! I LOVE YOU!
its looking like im going to be moving here around august of 2011!! i’ll be teaming up with some friends who are already there and starting a church. God is doing BIG things… BIG things I tell ya! The team has been having crazy dreams and visions from God, as well as seeing many miracles and healings in churches and on the streets!
i cannot wait to meet this lovely country!
soon… very soon!
HODGY & MONDO!
i had the great pleasure of meeting these two last night. they’ve been hitch hiking, hopping trains, and sleeping under the stars for the past 5 years or so. they’ve made the choice to leave behind materialism and the comforts we know as necessities. traveling the world with a backpack, guitar, and an unquenchable flame. These men are giants in the faith and they barely realize it. famous in heaven yet easily unnoticed on earth. radically following Jesus to the “T” …foxes have holes and birds have nest but even the son of man has no place to rest.
some would say that this radical lifestyle is unnecessary and taking the bible to literal. that opinion could possibly be true but i know that this kind of radicalism will open heaven in ways ive only dreamt!
these 2 homeless men manifest honor and humility in the purest form. they dont claim to be theologians, evangelist, prophets or miracle workers. they only claim to be lovers of God aspiring to know Him and “eternal life is to know God” john 17:3. they ”experience eternal life” (know God) in a way most will never allow themselves to venture.
