We have met some pretty amazing people in Brazil. Some of them, the world may never hear about. They are not on Facebook overinflating "up dates" about their ministries, but for sure these world changers are making a real difference in the lives of people, with a fruit that is remaining.
Among the people we met, is a young couple who have worked in the Amazon Rain Forest.They have touched my heart by their willingness to do God's work. This couple goes into the Amazon for weeks at the time in search of unreached indian tribes to share the Gospel. God is doing amazing things in the Amazon.
Garo was invited to come along with him next year and do the very first worship Jesus experience that these tribes have ever had. We are so looking forward to that, and are humbled that the Lord would give us such an opportunity. Every tribe and every Nation will bound down and worship Him!
Last week I had a meeting with our landlord to talk about few things related to our rent. We have found out that none of the neighbors like Mrs.Jussara. Let's put this way. She is not an easy person to deal with.
During our meeting Mrs. Jussara said that she was having some family problems. She has a niece named Laina, who is 25yrs old and has two daughters (3 & 5 yrs old). Laina has left home because of drugs abondoning her two daughters with the gradmother. The family could not find Laina and wasn't sure what had happened to her.
I asked if we (Hailey, Beth and I) could pray for her. She said yes.
When we prayed, we asked the Holy Spirit to touch Laina wherever she was at that moment and caused her to come back home. We prayed for her deliverence from drugs, and that she would encounter Jesus.
Well, Mrs. Jussara is a newage person and at the end of our prayer, she wanted to know why she could feel so much power while we were praying. I explained to her, that was because of the name of Jesus.
Two days later, I got several emails from Mrs. Jussara. She said that after our meeting, her sister had called her to let her know, that her niece Laina, had just called home asking for her daughters. Her sister also said that she was very happy to hear her daughter's voice again and couldn't believe she was coming back home. I cried just picturing that mother's relief. Mrs. Jussara told her sister that we had just finished praying for Laina.
Well, Mrs. Jussara, was also puzzled about what had happened, and now she wanted to know how could she pray like that, and what power is that, that caused her niece to respond immediately to our prayers.
Now, I've been talking to her about Jesus and believe the Lord has a special plan for this family. Mrs. Jussara wants to start going to church with us. Halelluia!!!
We are so happy to be in Brazil, and can't wait for all that is going to unfold with time. To God be all the glory.
We are Humbled to serve Him.
