Usually when I pray before a service, I have a good idea of what the Holy Spirit wants to do in the service. Pastor Cho has taught me to learn to see the service through the eyes of the Spirit before it actually takes place. But what happened at our 9am service took me completely by surprise.
After a powerful worship set, I got up to minister the Word, told everyone to turn to Ps. 5:12, and then noticed a lady on the front row with a leg brace. As I ministered to her and God healed her, it began to happen in everyone who had foot, ankle, and leg problems. Muscles, ligaments, tendons, bones, nerves, even vertebrae healed! Then headaches...one lady had been plagued for 15 years, and God healed her. God is Good! In all, about 14 people had healing manifestations that I saw, although others were saying that they got healed at the same moment that someone else did!
11am service didn't happen like that. Why? Don't know. I do know that the worst thing I could do is try to "manufacture" a move like that again. So...I decided to let the Holy Spirit lead the Church in every service, even if they're all different!
2 Bless the Lord, O my soul,
It was phenomenal to see the Spirit move in that service; and wonderful to see your humility and excitement to let Him have His way. =)
Bobby has had some issues with his left leg and foot ever since he had back surgery a few years ago, and noticed immediately that he was also doing better following that service.
You said you wondered who prayed that in - I have a sneaking suspicion of exactly who it probably was.....

Pastor Steve,
I'm so proud to be a part of LWFC and to have you as my Pastor. The service at 9:00 was awesome. Thanks for letting the Holy Spirit have HIS way in the service. You could have ignored the prompting of the Holy Spirit but you chose to obey and for that I'm grateful.
