Holy Spirit's Workshop

“Therefore wait for Me,” declares the LORD, “for the day I will stand up to testify. 
I have decided to assemble the nations, to gather the kingdoms and to pour out My wrath on them—all My fierce anger.  The whole world will be consumed by the fire of My jealous anger.” [Zephaniah 3.8]

This last Saturday workshop we had five new people come and all left healed.  Three kung fu students came in to witness the power of the Holy Spirit.  One man was healed in his left wrist, which was left weakened after an operation.  Another man had been unable to move some of his toes on his left foot for a few years, but after the laying on of hands he was able to move his toes, much to his delight.  His wife received healing of chronic pain and tingling in her feet that she said she had for as long as she could remember.  She had been brought up in an unbelieving household but gave her life to Jesus after witnessing the demonstration of power and some healings, was baptized with the Holy Spirit, herself demonstrated the power and began speaking in tongues.  The third man received healing in his right leg from his knee down to his ankle, which had been damaged from martial arts as well as experienced the power.  All three men demonstrated a significant increase in physical strength.

A Chinese lady was brought in off the street by another lady and she received healing in her feet, back and kidneys.

Another man who comes in to receive healing to take home to his wife who has cancer, received healing in his right shoulder, which had been put out due to having to lift her regularly and was in considerable pain.  He could no longer lift that arm above his chest region.  Whilst he wasn’t seeking healing for himself and though he has been testifying to much improvement in his wife, for she can now eat in one day what she was eating in five days previously, he was still amazed at the healing he received when the pain left and he was able to move his arm freely.

Another young woman who has been to the workshop once before was born with loss of macular vision in her right eye from toxoplasmosis at birth, with limited peripheral vision from the outer corner of that eye as well as being born deaf.  After the laying on of hands she was able to see and hear.  She also had a crooked pelvis, which made her left foot turn in, which was healed so that she could walk normally.

“Therefore go make disciples of all nations…” [Matthew 28.19]

Anyone who has ever attempted to make disciples will understand what a monumental task this is.  Those who have never even begin to understand what disciple making is, will see this as simply preaching the gospel and saving souls, as well as church growth.

Jesus made disciples.  He did not just preach the gospel so that people might repent and believe, nor did He just heal the sick and drive out demons, but throughout His ministry, He discipled a few individuals to show them the secret of His ministry.  Everyone knows the twelve disciples whom He called apostles, but He also had other disciples… that is, individuals whom He called to Himself to follow Him.

“Listen” is the first word of the command the Father gave to the three apostles on the top of the mountain.  The ability to hear is also the first ability that we are all given.  The first interaction we have with the world that we are born into is through sound.  It is the last of the senses to be shut down if a person undergoes anaesthesia, and the first to recover.  Listening is the use of our ability to hear in an attentive and productive manner.  Many hear, but few listen.  What is the difference ?

Those who hear are those who accept the word that is spoken, and receive it and persevere with it to produce a crop.  And if they put to practice what they have heard, they are like the wise man who built his house on the rock.  Jesus did not just hear what the Father was saying to Him, but He listened to how the Father was saying it.  Jesus said, “…but the Father who sent Me commanded Me what to say and HOW to say it.” [John 12.49]  (Capitalised for effect.)

You can hear the music, but to appreciate music, you have to listen to music.  In the same way, we can hear the word, but until we listen, we cannot appreciate the tone of the voice that speaks the words.  The tone of a person’s voice is as integral to conveying the message as the words that are spoken.

A middle aged man suffering from arthritis to his neck, shoulder, back and knees lost all stiffness and pain and joyfully demonstrated a full range of movements in all affected joints after two staff members ministered to him.

A martial arts sifu (teacher) who two years ago had surgery to his stomach for cancer recovered full strength in his abdominal muscle with some demonstration and testified that for the first time since his operation he was able to do his martial arts with pre-operation strength and power.

For those who watch (the news) and pray, we have been treated to two spectacles overnight – the mourning of the people of North Korea for their ‘messiah’ and the clergy of our messiah.

The people of North Korea are pouring out their grieve as one, and even if you cynically say that it is all orchestrated, at least they are doing what they have been told to do.  Compare that with the orthodox priests fighting each other with broom sticks in the church of nativity.  Is that what Jesus commanded us to do????

Shame, shame, shame… we have no right to point the finger at the ‘godless’ people of North Korea when the clergy who profess to be the servants of Jesus attack each other in the church of His birthplace.  Watch the two videos side by side and weep, no, wail for our Lord, for we who bear His Name bring such disgrace to Him.

Let us resolve to bring Jesus back so that the household can be judged and cleansed once for all.

Hyline Mwendo suffered from Lupus (a genetic auto-immune disease where the body’s immune system becomes hyperactive and attacks normal healthy tissues), which killed two of her family members two years ago.  Her body had inflammation, swellings, damaged joints and damaged skin.  After two months of laying of hands on her, last Sunday she witnessed how she is now strong and healthy.  Her doctor confirmed that there is no more inflammation, swelling, etc. which were present before.

Anne, 23 years old, developed post-traumatic stress disorder after seeing a gang of men kill her mother and father.  She had been having sleepless nights and disturbed moments as she recalled the events of her parents’ death.  My wife laid hands on her four weeks ago after doctors’ treatments and counselling failed.  Today she came in, and before she spoke of her healing, everyone confirmed it by the way she was socialising happily.  She said that she no longer needed any medication, for she feels strong, sleeps without recalling the bad events and has no more fear for four weeks since she received the prayers.

Enosh had a very severe earache.  The pain was head splitting and tormented him day and night without responding to any painkiller or medication.  Traditional and modern medicine failed to heal him.  He came to the workshop last Friday, and as I laid hands on his aching ear, it was instantly healed.  He confirmed today that he has no more earache.

I was with my landlord, Godfrey Amaliga and a large crowd on Christmas night when my attention was drawn to a call from the next compound.  A man living there was passing out, and his wife was crying because there was no vehicle to take him to the hospital.  In the confusion I remembered that this could be an opportunity to display God’s power.  As my landlord, Godfrey and I stood in the midst of the people who had gathered around the man, suddenly I spoke out and drove out everyone from the room.  I took the hand of the dying man and I did not say a word.  I commanded that he should go to sleep and wake up delivered from whatever was wrong with him, including alcoholism.  We left and returned home.  A few hours later, I went to check on him and found that he was still asleep.  This morning the man woke up restored and he ate.  Everyone around the place witnessed this scene – the sleep and then the restoration.

Just wanted to testify about healing.  I occasionally get migraine type headaches.  About five or six months ago when I had one, the Holy Spirit reminded of what Jesus said, “You are already clean because of the word I have spoken to you.” [John 15.3]  As I was then reading the Testimony, my migraine went.  It has happened this way one or two times since, including just now.  I’m thankful.

When the twelve advised Jesus that the crowd was large and that He should send them away, He told them that they did not have to go away.  He said, “You give them something to eat.” [Matthew 14.16; Mark 6.37; Luke 9.13]  After He said that, the disciples went through a period of logical thinking, “That would take eight months of a man’s wages!  Are we to go and spend that much on bread and give it to them to eat?”  ”Eight months wages would not buy enough bread for each one to have a bite!”  ”We have only five loaves of bread and two fish—unless we go and buy food for all this crowd.” [Matthew 14.16-17; Mark 6.37-38; Luke 9.13; John 6.5-7 The Testimony]

And so also it is the same with us.  We point out the problem to the Lord and give Him a solution that we think will make the problem go away.  He tells us to solve the problem and we go through the process of logic and reason.  All of which, as you can see from the words of the disciples, discount the availability of miraculous power.

Jesus, however, saw the problem and solved it as One who has the power… and told them to solve it as ones who also had the power.  For by the time of the feeding of the five thousand, the twelve had been sent out by Him a few times, and they had healed the sick, driven out demons and so on.  That is, they had been witnesses to the truth that they could do the things that Jesus had been doing.  It is just that, like us, when the problems arise, we forget to solve the problem based on the availability of miraculous power.

December 24 of the Gregorian calendar is not the date of Jesus Christ of Nazareth’s birth.  John the Baptist called Him, “…the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world.”  [John 1.29]  Lambs are not born in winter but in spring.  That alone tells us we are celebrating not only the wrong day but the wrong season for the birthday of Jesus Christ of Nazareth.

As we who now live in the 21^st century world know, the date, month and year of a person’s birth form as much as his name to identify the person.  Perhaps there is another Jesus who was born in Bethlehem on December 24 in winter as they are celebrating… but it is definitely not our Lord Jesus.

It is not my purpose here to go back through historical archives as to why the church tradition celebrates 24^th December as the birth of our Lord and Saviour.  As with all things, the question is:  What do we do with it until He returns and sets the times right again?

The answer is simple:  We use it.

The power and the word of God are inseparable.  This in itself is such a self-evident statement that to have to say it shows the state of decay the church is really in.  For in most of the churches, there is at best the word, but scarcely any miraculous power.

Miraculous power is a tool that most do not appreciate because most do not have it and cannot be trusted with it.  For most pastors who wish to start a church, it is a matter of gathering the people to garner the financial support, and for some, working a job with somebody to pay for the food and bills.  A few are successful and some even grow their churches to sizes that the captains of Mammon would be proud of, but most flounder away, struggling with a small congregation, like so many small businesses in mammon’s world.  The rate of small church failure is as high as the rate of failure of small start-up businesses.  Of course, this does not apply to the denominationals that have their entrenched parishes as much.  However, even they can experience church closure due to lack of interest.

How did Jesus start up His ‘church’?  Was it with support from believing Jews who gave Him their tithes and offerings?  Did He choose a place and held regular services, establishing a good praise and worship team, a children’s ministry, a women’s ministry and so on?  Oh, and a Sunday school?  No, He started His ministry with a few men who wanted to know more about Him, and began to do miracles and signs and wonders even as He started to preach.  In truth, since the changing of water to good wine was not accompanied by a preach or a teach, unless you consider what He said to His mother and the servants a preach and a teach, then really signs and wonders preceded the preaching of the word with Jesus.  That was the hallmark of His ministry, and if anyone can do that before they start to preach, they will do extremely well.
