Praise Report




Hi guys,

Just thought I'd send a praise report of a recent testimony that we've experienced here in Sabah

About a week ago we were in Kampung Narandang, Kudat on a 1 week Mid-Term Outreach. 20 of us traveled up north and stayed together in a wooden house next to a church after going through lots of gravel (bumpy) roads to serve and minister to the Rungus people of Narandang and around that area. We helped them to harvest rice and clean-up the church grounds. We also did children's ministry, minister in their cell groups and prayer meetings, and visited various houses and prayed for the sick.

One of the things that we did is called 'treasure hunting'; an activity where we ask God for clues to lead us to a specific person (our treasure, or rather, His treasure) and we then build a relationship with that person, offer prayer for that person and see where it leads to (prayer, salvation, healing). On our way back from of our 'treasure hunting' trips -

We met an old lady who was bent over. She held a tongkat on one hand and was being led by another person on the other hand. At that time we were just about to head back from visiting various houses and praying for their sick from our treasure hunt but we felt led to pray for her. As we gathered around her and laid our hands on her we began to pray. As we prayed together in one voice she began to straighten herself up. Some of our team members said that they could feel her straightening up as they laid their hands on her; as if strength was returning to her body. After we had finished she was so thankful and grateful and as she left, she could walk without being helped! she was healed!! It was a miracle that happened right before our eyes! Praise the Lord!!

Attached are some pictures, before - during - and after prayer! Our God is an awesome God! I've heard of many healings but have never seen one happen right in front of my eyes! We felt really encouraged and so happy that we were thanking God in our land cruiser on the way back. God is amazing! Praise the Lord!



More praise reports to come, I am sure! Hope this blesses you! Have a great day and remember, nothing is impossible for God!
