and one great story there was I worked
18:46
in a company that's predominantly Muslim
18:48
and I remember one of the managers I met
18:51
him in a corridor and he told me he was
18:53
suffering from back pain and he was up
18:56
for surgery in my spirit because you
18:58
know a sense within me said Joe you need
19:01
to pray for him I thought well really
19:04
really do I have to like
19:06
so I I said to him would you mind if I
19:09
prayed for you and he said no let's pray
19:12
and I said well can we go into your
19:13
office so it's a bit more private we
19:15
went into his office and I laid my hands
19:18
on his back with his approval and
19:21
started to pray in the name of Jesus for
19:23
healing it was a simple prayer
19:25
and I did it because I felt I was led to
19:28
do it
19:29
to be honest I wasn't 100 convinced
19:32
anything was going to happen he
19:33
graciously accepted it we had a cup of
19:35
tea and I went on my way and I didn't
19:37
hear from him for maybe four or five
19:40
weeks week weeks went by maybe six and
19:42
then I met him in the corridor again I
19:44
actually said to him so how was your
19:47
operation how's your back feeling he
19:49
goes Joe I never had the operation my
19:52
back was completely healed thank you for
19:55
your prayer and I thought whoa I said
19:58
well let's thank Jesus for what he did
20:00
because you know I was just amazed that
20:03
that could happen and that was really
20:06
one of my first experiences into their
20:08
healing power of Jesus and the Holy
20:10
Spirit and so if people tell me it's not
20:12
real well I've have experienced it
20:14
firsthand and I myself didn't believe at
20:17
the time it would happen
20:19
it happened and I've had other
20:21
experiences like
