Miracle....continued

Cont.........The village called Lajwatek is 4km from our centre. I agreed and asked both Maureens, Millie, Suzan, Frolence, Janet and Jenifer to go and we pray for the person (I did not know the person had died already). Reaching the village we found a group of 13 mourners who had spent two days at the home of the deceased woman who we later came to know as Esther Adong. At this point I introduced myself and the team to the mourners and asked the people to bring the sick person and we pray. The mourners told me that it was impossible for the person to come because she had passed away three days ago. I ordered the people to lift the person and bring her outside the hut because it too dark inside. Instead of leading a funeral service I read a scripture in James 5:6-13 and told the mourners that we were members of Gulu New Foundation Community Church and we love Jesus who gave us power to pray and heal the sick. I challenged everyone to have faith in God and we started praising God in songs and later prayed. At the end of a serious prayer I started calling the name of the woman in Jesus name and the woman started responding. There were mixed reactions at first from the villagers doubting wheather it was Esther responding or someone else. Later it was proved beyond doubt that Adong Esther was the one responding. I took another step of thanking God for the miracle and asked the woman to get up, I asked relatives to bring water and give the woman; the woman opened her mouth and drunk a full mag non stop. We grolified God as the woman begun to open her eyes for the first time after three days and she was able to talk with me. There was a spiritual drama as a would be funeral service turned into a deliverance and miracle service.
We left the home late around 9:00pm and I promised the people that the Lord was going completely heal the woman. Before we left the woman answered a salvation prayer and four other people responded to an altar call.
The following morning we recieved a report that the villagers did not go back to their homes all night trying to wait and prove whether the woman would died again or whether she was completely healed.
Thursday was our baptism class and after teachingg the class I briefly shared the testimony to the people around. Imediately two women who recieved Christ on that night of prayer stood up to confirm that the woman had died but she reserected after our prayers. One said, "I have never seen such a miracle because we were going for barial shortly before the pastor arrived and instead prayed for the woman" Another woman said, "Even the local leader of our village had confirmed that the woman was dead"
There is still alot to share about this testimony but I will share more with you next week; this Sunday the woman who was healed from death will be in our Church at Koro and we expect over 60 villagers and the local leader to come and share this testimony and miracle.
Some of the moving stories around this miracle is how the woman managed to stand up, pick a bansin, go and bath herself (this was shortly after we left), woke in the morning and do her domestic work while the people who had come for barial were monitoring her steps. The woman also shared her spiritual nightmare to the relatives and how she managed to escape from the devil..... (all this next week when I get first hand information from the woman on Sunday in our Church)another testimony is that one of Bosco. I will give a detailed report on this man very soon
Stay tuned and pray for me and the team in Gulu
God bless you,
Aloysius
