God’s Presence at Boardmans

I was shopping at Pavilion during my lunch break and my back had been feeling really sore for a couple of days, I was saying to Jesus how cool it would be to pray for someone and if out of that my back got healed. a little while after that the Holy Spirit told me to go to Boardmans, so I went.

I found what I was looking for there (for a much cheaper price too!) and went to pay for it. While I was at the teller the Holy Spirit reminded me of the conversation I had had earlier, so I asked the teller if she had pain in her back and she said 'no' while looking at me strangely. I explained to her that Jesus sometimes shows me that people have pain, by word of knowledge, and then he heals the person. She then said that one of her colleagues was really struggling with her back  and that I could talk to her.

Once I had met the lady with the bad back I explained everything to her and her colleagues. I asked if she knew Jesus and whether she had felt the presence of God. She said ‘no’. So I prayed for the healing in her back for about 10 seconds and boom! She was healed right then! She was absolutely amazed, shocked and happy. She and her colleagues asked if I could do the same for some others, I said absolutely!

The ladies phoned one of the employees working in the store room and he came around, I explained everything to him, prayed for him three times seeing massive improvement until there was complete healing after the third time I prayed. He was also shocked and kept asking me how I did this. I kept telling him it was Jesus – He healed him because he loves him.

While this was going on, the ladies called another employee, also with hectic back pain, over to get healed. So this Muslim or Hindu lady arrived and once again I started explaining, then, sceptically, she let me pray for her and she was instantly healed! She was so shocked that she couldn’t believe it and just started walking away from me in a state of unbelief of what just happened while testing her back out and completely pain free!

After this, I was just about to leave when the original girl I had talked to brought another employee over and asked me to pray for them. I did, I released God’s presence over them and prophesied over them. God gave me a word for the first girl I spoke to and He really ministered to her a lot. It was amazing to see God working in her.

After I had finished praying for the ladies I walked out with such a sense of God’s presence in the shop around me and feeling fantastic. What a way to spend my lunch break!

 So, three people healed, two people ministered to, and to top it off my back was healed too! Thank you Jesus!
