Three weeks ago, I went out in the evening to pick up Mexican food from a restaurant close by. The waitress who was putting all the takeout orders together was limping.
I asked her, “What’s going on with your leg?” She said, “I twisted my ankle this morning while serving customers and since then, I have been in a lot of pain and can’t walk well at all. I plan to go to my doctor tomorrow.” Here I went again asking if I could pray over her ankle. She let me touch her ankle and pray over it with a smiling face. She felt better after the prayers but not to the point where she was completely set free from her pain and inflammation. Couple of days ago, I went back again to the same restaurant. There she was busy doing her stuff. As soon as she saw me, she came to tell me, “I met you 3 weeks ago. My ankle was set free from pain and inflammation the same night. I didn’t even have to go to doctor the following day.” Together, we thanked Jesus for His healing! The important lesson I learned from this experience is that God gives us opportunities if we look around, so we could bring His presence and Him on the scene for others' need. But are we willing to seize the moment or opportunity when we come across one? I believe God takes pleasure in backing us up when we are taking a RISK and stepping out in Jesus' name. Matthew 18:18-19, “Truly I tell you, whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven. Again, truly I tell you that if two of you on earth agree about anything they ask for, it will be done for them by my Father in heaven.”
