Man Healed at the Bus Stop
“The first man we approached today was waiting to board his bus at the bus stop. We asked if he had any pain in his body, and he said he had pain in his wrist and neck from a car accident. We explained that Jesus wanted to heal him and asked if we could pray. It turns out he believed in Jesus, and he shared with us how he had been homeless for two months and, from that experience had a passion to help the homeless. He was eager and thankful for us to pray for him. The first time we prayed for his wrist, the pain actually got worse. He looked at me, surprised, and I told him it was a demon and that we were going to pray again. After we prayed the second time, the peace of God dropped on him, and he felt something go into his wrist. When he tested it out, he could move it around with no pain! He looked at us, stunned, and asked, “Who are you guys?” I simply said, “That’s Jesus! We love Jesus.” We then prayed for his neck, and all the pain left, the cracking reduced, and range of motion was restored. As we were praying, the Holy Spirit showed me that he went through a divorce and that he was having a hard time with his ex-wife and his daughter. When I asked him this, he said it was all true, and we were able to speak truth into the situation about how the Father wanted to bring peace and restoration into the relationships. He was so encouraged and thanked us for the work we were doing. He had to catch his bus, so we said goodbye, knowing that he encountered Jesus afresh that day.”
