Sometimes Christians forget that the same Jesus who calmed the storm
is the same God with the power to change and direct the weather today.
In 2017 there was a ferocious storm bearing down on the province of
Supanburi, Thailand. “The new believers prayed that God would protect
their rice fields from being flattened by the hail,” according to a
report by John and Nok P., ministry leaders with World Outreach
International.
Something remarkable happened after their prayers.
“All their rice fields were protected while the neighboring fields
were destroyed,” they noted. “This opened an opportunity for the
believers to share about God’s power with their neighbors and 75 people
have begun to follow Jesus.”
The Word and the Spirit spread contagiously to another village in
close proximity, “where four people who had been deaf were made to hear.
One lady, who had been afflicted by a huge goiter for more than 50
years, was completely healed. Her son, who was a drug seller, was set
free from his addiction and has a new job.
“Some who had insomnia for many years are now able to sleep normally.
The assistant village chief has been saved, together with his whole
family. God is working and opening many doors for us to make disciples
in Supanburi.”
One Buddhist-background believer, Mr. Prasoot, was healed from fourth
stage terminal cancer in 2016. For the past several months, he and his
wife, Wassana, have been witnessing to their son, a Buddhist monk.
“He is very interested, and invited his friends from the temple to
his parents’ house to hear his father’s testimony of healing. This group
of monks heard the Good News, and Prasoot’s son is now considering
baptism.”
