Friday, May 02 2008 was an awesome day for us in XE! First I want to back up to the beginning of the ten day of anointing sent out of the Great Florida Out Pouring, lead by Todd Bentley and Fresh Fire Ministries. Todd was quoted as saying there will be ten days of anointing and each day would be different. Towards the beginning of these he announced that Friday would be a day for Harvesters/Evangelists, but there would be a special anointing for children and those who are called to children. This led to the great adventure of getting Rahab to Florida to receive what is being given out.
But what was also amazing was that Todd was also saying bring your children. If you can’t get them here, then set them in front of the television, because God is going to have a special anointing for them. My son has been placed in front of the television every night God TV has broadcasted. Some nights he fell asleep to it, or was made to lay still and try to sleep (he does need to go to school). Because I understand a seven year old boy’s need for constant stimulation, I allowed a Game Boy to come with him some nights. Because I understand the need for love, we played board games and watched some nights. Most nights, though, he was asked to watch and be quiet.
Side note, for the last 5+ years I have had a constant surgical hernia. Each surgery has only lead to new opening that spreads until I look the same as I did before hand. This has affected my ability to wrestle and ruff house with my son, which at times makes him sad. Fortunately my family is usually near young men who fill that need for him. Now back to my regular scheduled blog!
Friday it was felt that it was time to release healing into my body. It was felt that there was glory anointing and faith for me to be healed. Let me stop the wondering now, I was not fully healed. However, I saw more progress last night in prayer than ever before. My sight is smaller, and has shifted into a more natural position (this is better results than any prayer group has achieved and I now believe I am in a season for progressive healing). This is not was exciting, it was my 7 year old son who amazed me.
Todd Bentley had not yet prayed for the children, when our home group had joined to pray for me. I had “assumed the position to receive” (hands out, eyes closed) and felt small hands on me. I looked down and my son was praying his heart out. Under the glory I laid down on the floor and saw my some go radical. He called out demons and I felt them leave. He called on God to heal his dad in Jesus name. Some memorable phrases where “Jesus I saw you heal blind people, deaf people, people in wheel chairs. If you can do that, you can heal my dad.” “My dad doesn’t have to go there for you to heal him. You are God and you can heal him right here!” “Dad I need to ask you a question. I have faith for you to be healed. Do you have faith Jesus can heal you?” My 7 year old son GETS IT!!
Todd said for a week that God was going to pour out an anointing on the children Friday. Friday night my son showed signs he had received, even before Todd had prayed. He not only prayed for me for an elder lady in our group and for his mother’s foot. Both of these also seem to be progressive, but there was notable improvement in these ailments as well. I asked him if he was okay with not seeing completed healing and he said, “Yes. Even Todd has been praying for the same person for a couple days. The guy with cancer.” My 7 year old son GETS IT!!! The biggest thing about this he, as well as I, is giving all credit to Jesus. “Jesus heal my dad.” “Thank you Jesus” and I just repeat that as well, thank you Jesus.
