The crusade in Nepal is now underway. It takes one hour by car to get there from my hotel in Kathmandu. An unusually large number of people were healed. One third of the people were Hindus and, as usual, everyone wanted to receive Jesus. The woman in this photo was physically assaulted by her husband 14 years ago. His abuse dislocated her arm. Left without medical attention, it healed itself, but became very crooked because of the way the bones reset. She told of how the power of Jesus came upon her, she heard a crack, and then her arm became straight. Amazing, isn't it?! Unbelievable. I can't even fathom how this happened, but it confirms the meaning behind Jesus' words: "In my name you will..."
On the second day of the crusade there were more people, and even more Hindus. I first saw the little boy in this photo when I arrived and opened with prayer. They were trying to stand him up, but he would just fall down immediately. He simply did not have the strength or the control to stand upright. His legs were like jello. After the sermon I continued to pray for the sick from the stage, and to cast out demons (there were many deliverances yesterday). And then this boy suddenly stood up! He took one step and fell down. But after ten minutes he could take 5-6 steps. And after fifteen minutes he was stumbling forward like a one year-old who has just learned to walk.
When the mother, who is extremely poor, came up on stage with the little boy, he could walk! She told us that he is 7 years old, and that he has never walked or spoken! Now he has said several words, including "Mamma" and "walk"!
I flew in my film team from India, and I hope that they captured all of this on film. It is such an amazingly powerful testimony.
