Saturday, October 12 by Mike Clark:
We prayed for a lady who had bad pains in her left side. After prayer she said the pain was gone.
One lady at first did not want us to pray for her but after assuring her of how much Jesus loves her. she began to weep, confessing and sharing about some private health issues. After praying for her she said she felt the weight of her problem lift off and she was feeling much better. She wanted to get connected with the host church and restore her relationship with Jesus.

Towards the end of the event several volunteers who watched God move asked if we would pray for them for a multitude of requests. Everyone who asked got touched by Holy Spirit and multiple prayers were answered. Marriages were being strengthened, Gods calling was made very evident through many confirmations, relationships were restored, many wanted to restore their church attending and many on the church staff were encouraged in their service to our Fathers work.

I believe the Lord used me in a way that I didn’t feel qualified at first to be used. I have lately had a lot of emotional things go on in my life and just didn’t think I could do it.

LIE.
God qualifies the unqualified.
I was able to lead a young teen boy to Christ. I prayed and prophesied over many, many kids and women coming in.
One lady in particular I prayed for her to receive the baptism and gifts of speaking in tongues.
Some other kids, I saw come inside. Four young kids. The Lord said, “Go pray for my children.” So, I prayed and prophesied over each child.

Another young girl that stood out was a girl by the name of Angel. My 11-year-old sister Aaron-Sophia was able to play and talk with her about some difficulties going on in Angels life. She began opening up to Aaron Sophia and cried about her family struggles. Aaron Sophia brought her to me to pray for her because her mom was not in her life. Angel was already crying, so I prayed over her and prayed the love of Christ would flow through her. I just hugged her and let her cry on me. Afterwards a smile came on her face, and she was very joyful afterwards. I was able to really connect with her (ask her to teach me how to hit the woah A DANCE) she later called me her mama. Said I was like a mama to her.

I prayed for many families that came in. Prophesied, prayed for kidney/leg/healings. Also, a Christian-Based ULM group CHI ALPHA came and I was even able to demonstrate to them, and show them how to pray for folks to get healed or saved. One sweet girl named Asia; really stood out to me and began to put it in practice. She was hungry for what God was doing.

Prayer Tent Testimonies by Whit Bass

Some happenings in the prayer tent and connections area from the Monroe Convoy Outreach.
There were opportunities for our prayer team and connections team to grow in their praying for our guests. It was a beautiful sight to see young college age and 20 somethings ministering with boldness. There was some equipping that took place for a few occasions.
One man named Wilburt - African American man probably in his late 30's was very receptive to receiving prayer for his Kidney. As he walked through our area, I asked him I we could pray for him. He said he had a Kidney that had already been shown to have a mass on it. That his pain level in his kidney area was about an 8 out of 10. I asked him if we could pray for his kidney. He agreed. At this point I encouraged others to gather around Wilburt. We all began to pray for Wilburt. He said he could feel a tangible difference after we prayed. He said, "Its gone. It's ALL GONE. I have no more pain in my kidney." As Wilburt remained in the TENT area he then began to help us pray for others. We prayed for some who had no hearing that were deaf. It was visible that the Lord was touching those who could not hear in some way. One person in particular who we prayed for said that her hearing improved slightly. We actually had some there who could sign for us which was helpful. Back to Wilburt, he continued to say, God is doing something in my Kidney. I can feel something happening in my kidney. (This was probably 20 minutes after we prayed for him the first time). The moment was a special one for us.

Thursday, October 10, 2019: I was privileged to lead a former atheist to Christ on his death bed in Plantation Oaks Nursing Home. He had once turned me down. I went by and he was asleep. I couldn't budge him to wake. I spoke with the nurse station - I noticed he was to be turned in about an hour and 20 minutes. So I remained in the area. I came back at 2 pm. He was wide awake with two ladies that were there to visit that were excited to hear that I wanted to share Christ with the patient. He received Christ this day as Lord and Savior. It was an awesome sight to behold.

Saturday, January 2, 2016: Hello Brother Robert, I pray this email finds you in good health. Well I haven't heard anything about the Entergy opening that I put in for; yet but several people have told me that I have the job but nothing official. I have been praying that His will be done; not mine. Things have been going great out here as far as ministering to people. I know I have planted seeds in 4 different people, it may be more due to them over hearing me. You know it's usually the one you're not talking to but others that over hears the conversation that The Holy Spirit is dealing with. God is good. Tim text me one days and said, he prays that God would send people for me to minister too; he has. No one has accepted Jesus as their Savior but my hitch is not over. I have texted you with WATS APP but I don't know if you have gotten them. I want to thank you for always being there for me even when I didn't deserve it. You show me how a father’s love is supposed to be I had never experienced it. The world doesn't know this love because it's not of the world its of God. Amen. I pray this year will be a new beginnings and adventures in the Spirit; that the move of God be stronger than we have ever experienced. With you; my wife; my other Brothers and Sisters love, support, guidance it will help. I pray that the Spirit that God has sent worth in me will finally accomplish what he has destined for me before time began. Thanks again for all you have done for me.

One afternoon at the coffee shop, I was working on a paper and felt impressed to pray for a young lady. Not knowing what or how to pray for her, I sought the Lord for wisdom. In God’s word, it says that God gives wisdom freely to those who ask in faith so I thanked Him for this. As I continued to ponder how to pray for this young lady, the word “relationship” was imprinted on my mind. This was a word of knowledge given by the Holy Spirit (1 Cor. 12). This word, however, did not come with any further information. I went to this lady and shared with her that I felt impressed to pray for her. I told her that I did not know any details, but I sensed that I needed to pray for her regarding a relationship……either a past or present one. I asked if this resonated with her, and she was moved by this (see John 4, the woman at the well). She said that this was spot on and welcomed prayer without any further details. This young lady encountered God this afternoon, and God became real to her. As we prayed, she was moved and thanked me.

Friday, January 01, 2016: From Andy Magee

On my almost daily visit and stay at the local coffee shop, I have had the opportunity to meet with many people. One afternoon, a young lady came to talk with me. She began sharing how she believed that there was a guy wanting to go out with her for one reason only. I suggested that he may not be the guy for her. The conversation went from this to her recent breakup with a guy she has been living with for the past eight months to discussion of her previous marriage and divorce of three years. This lady is only 22 years old. I sensed that this lady is searching for love and fulfillment. I also began to sense that she was heartbroken over her recent live-in- boy- friend; I asked her if I could pray for her. She eagerly agreed, and I watched tears roll down her cheeks as I sensed the Holy Spirit’s love and presence.
As a born-again believer, I have found that accepting and loving people wherever they may be in life is what made Jesus so attractive to the lost, and this type of love tends to transcend the paradigms of a religious mindset. Remember that our Lord was not hated by the prostitutes, tax collectors, and wine bibbers, but rather, it was the very ones who claimed to be God’s chosen people who were angered by Him and wanted to see Him killed. This lady did not need me to tell her of her sin issues……she already knew what they were. The greater issues dealt with the need to encounter Christ and His love for her. This type of encounter and experience changes lives forever.

Michelle Bass Testimony

10/10/2019

Sunday, December 27, 2015: A testimony by Michelle Bass: The moment I decided to go to Brazil the stress began. I have to say that the Lord has a funny way of stretching us….Even when we really are not interested in being stretched. I mean, who wants to be stretched??? My friend, Mei Powers asked me back in August about possibly going to Brazil with Global Awakening…well, she didn’t really ASK…it was more like-- let’s go to Brazil, it will be fun and the food is soooo goooood. Two things about Mei that you may not know is… one, she loves JESUS and secondly, she really enjoys good food. I love Jesus, food and love to travel when given the opportunity! I excitedly said, “YES!” I quickly paid my deposit and then began to realize exactly what kind of trip this was going to be. It was if the Lord set me up! I began to realize that there was going to be A LOT OF PRAYING FOR PEOPLE. Well, first of all…praying for people that I didn’t know was uncomfortable. I then found out how taxing the schedule would be--I don’t like to go all the time…and on top of that, I don’t like hot weather. Period! For some reason I thought Brazil would be cool…I have no idea why I thought that, because Brazil is NOT cool in the sense of temperature. So, I found out that this trip was going to consist of hot, late nights praying for people. Honestly, I thought that doesn’t sound like much fun...but at this point I could not get out of the trip. It really was a situation I could not get out of, however, the Lord had other plans for me.
Now, I was thankful to be able to go, but the stress and anxiety of going for three months is what consumed my mind. I actually thought maybe things will be so serious that Global Awakening would be concerned for our lives due to ISIS and cancel the trip. Yes, I really thought that. I know it sounds silly, but that is what I thought. I am so thankful that the trip wasn’t cancelled and even more thankful to Christ for loving me enough to supernaturally heal, deliver and show me how much He really did love me. It is amazing to me how the Lord wants us out of our comfort zone…He just wants to use us. He wants to use desperate and hungry people for the Kingdom. I have to say…I was desperate. I didn’t want to come back home the same way and I knew I had to be 100% on board with the ministry Whit was starting…I was on board mentally, but not really on board emotionally and spiritually. If that even makes sense.
I am sure you are wondering what happened, what I saw, what did He do…that sort of thing. Well, I can tell you many stories of seeing the Lord heal physically and emotionally….I saw salvations, supernatural touches from the Lord and I could go on and on, but I want to share this one thing that will forever be part of my personal testimony. The Lord changed my life. Isn’t that what we really want? We really want to be changed and touched by the Lord? We want to be changed but without a price. We exchange something for radical change. If you want radical change, you have to be willing to let go of pride, fear, dignity, and anything else that may be a barrier between you and the Lord. Christ wants ALL of us. He wants our obedience and we have to be willing to “let go” of things for the change.

We were in a Presbyterian church every morning for worship, teaching and prayer; but as Randy Clark began to teach, I began to feel the Lord minister to me and it just intensified over the next hour and a half. As time goes on for me, I will go into more detail, but for two hours, I felt His presence like never before (well, I had abrief encounter with two ladies in the lobby—Jo and Katherine and it lasted about 15 minutes—this encounter would be just the beginning). This encounter in the church happened with no one praying or touching me and in church! During this time the Lord showed me how much HE loved me and how I would be totally set free of fear of man that had plagued me all my life and I will share two things I remember. ONE—I saw Hannah and I ministering together and TWO—the Lord gently and sweetly said to me that Aaron-Sophia would not be left behind and that she would be apart of what the Lord had for our family. I knew that Aaron-Sophia would be passionate about Him and serve Him along side of us…something I worried about. This encounter totally changed my life…we have to know our purpose and know He loves us as well…
If we don’t really believe….I mean, really believe that HE loves us then how can we minister HIS love to others? We can’t. I now know without a doubt that He loves me. HE loves me. The Creator of ALL things…Loves me. ME!!! I also have been freed of fear that has kept me from my destiny. I have missed many opportunities because I was worried about what people thought or was afraid at failing miserably trying something new. One more thing, I was raised in church all my life and loved the Lord since a young age, but something always has held me back. Now, being confident in the Lord and His love for me and his deliverance of fear, I can honestly say…I am just now stepping into the destiny He has for me and the ride has just begun—not just for me but our entire family. I pray that the Lord show you just how much HE loves you….

I pray that in the months to come that something that is written in this e-mail will encourage you even more to seek the Lord.

Love Yall!!!

Michelle

Sunday, December 20, 2015: A testimony by Tim Smith. Bill John and I were having our regular Sunday morning fellowship time at McDonald's. I noticed a young man coming across the parking lot, he looked like a crackhead but he had drawn my attention. A few minutes later he left with his food but when he got back to his car; he must have locked the keys on the inside. As I watched he was using a coat hanger to try and unlock the car door. I felt the leading of the Holy Spirit to go talk to the guy; I introduced myself to him and shared a brief testimony of how Christ delivered me from a lifetime of chemical addictions through Celebrate Recovery. He told me he worked for the Voith Company on Well Road in West Monroe. Tim asked him if he could pray for him and he agreed. As he finished praying and looked up there was a policeman standing beside them. The officer asked if this was his car and he assured the policeman that it was; it only took the policeman a short time and he had the door open. The guy turns to Tim and says, "The Lord has showed up." This was a spiritually energizing occasion for Tim, for which he is grateful. The joy of God’s Grace upon the simplest acts of obedience are exhilarating! The harvest is not in the barn, it's in McDonald's parking lot.

Testimony by Whit Bass

10/8/2019

Thursday, December 17, 2015: This is a testimony by Whit Bass.

He had a hospice patient in Rayville he visited recently. When he showed up at the patient's house; he had back pain that was so severe that it reflected on his face. Whit led him to his chair and asked if he could pray for his back while the patient was still standing. He laid his hand on his back, after praying he asked him if he could tell any difference in his pain level. He said that the pain level had gone from an eight to a six. Whit visited with him and then prayed again; he did these four different times. The pain level went from an eight to a six, then to a four then to a two and then zero. The man had cold chills going up and down his back as Whit prayed the third time. That day God touched him and healed his back physically.

Whit returned a few weeks later to see the patient and the man told him that his back was no longer hurting, this was a non-solicited comment. Whit could tell that something was still bothering the patient. The patient told Whit that December was always a difficult time for him.

The patient went on to share how 30 years ago on December 24 his 10-year-old son was shot in an accident with a shotgun by a first cousin before going rabbit hunting. For many years the father has blamed himself for this incident. Wondering if he should have allowed his son to go hunt. The son and the older brother never told their father that they were going to invite their cousin to join them.

Because of this incident there was a lot of hurt between him and the other members of the family. The family to this day has never apologized to the father. His son was rushed to the hospital in Rayville; there the doctor worked on him for hours and hours, giving him hope and then no hope. His 10-year-old son didn't make it; he and his wife went home that night and went to sleep only to be woken up by a gunshot sound from next door by the family's cousin that shot his son. The cousin and his father were rabbit hunting right near the Patient's home. The patient was deeply hurt and enraged by this lack of sensitivity. Many years went by and because of this accident bitterness and hurt affected their marriage and the marriage eventually failed. The wife cheated on the husband, the father of the 10-year-old boy. Because of this most Christmas' seasons have not been enjoyable. Whit felt compelled to pray for this man, he got on his knees and began to hug him and hold him. He began to pray; the man began to sob as he prayed for the glory of God and the light of God to begin to heal the emotional wounds from the trauma, emotional pain, etc. With tears in his eyes he said "In 30 years I have never had a pastor do for me what you have done today". Whit believes that God touched him and he will have a much better Christian and Christmas experience.
