8 "Miracles with the Homeless"

For a little over two weeks now we have been taking a team down into Downtown Atlanta to bring the Kingdom of Heaven. And the Kingdom of Heaven is making an impact....

"Hello, we are just here to tell you something... Jesus is King and the Kingdom of Heaven is on the Earth." Most of the responses after this are ones of shock or disbelief but still we continue. "We are here to prove it..." If you thought the first part brought weird looks saying that we will prove it really gets their attention. And the coolest part about it is we did, we proved it!

D (that is what I will call him) was sitting on a park bench at the far end of Big Head Park, as the locals call it. He and a friend seemed to be minding their own business when we approached. "Jesus is King and the Kingdom of Heaven is on the Earth." Before I could get much farther I asked him "so what is all this turmoil about your mom? It is really getting to you?" A look of total shock came over his face and I proceeded to tell him his own story of the broken relationships he has had. I then explained briefly to him about the Kingdom of Heaven and the Power of God that could set him free. Soon we were praying and D was born again.
Tonight the words of Knowledge were really flowing with the whole team. I had taken my 7 year old with me this time and he and I and a friend were talking to a lady when we noticed the rest of the group causing a commotion a few benches over. A man that they had started talking to was in an uproar because "they would dare approach him with this nonsense." It was starting to get the attention of the people in the park. I turned my attention back to the lady and asked if there was anything I could pray for. Her response was the normal "no, I am fine." That doesn't work well with people that can hear from the Lord.
"Okay, but let me share something with you I feel like the Lord is showing me. You have two children, am I right?"
"yes"
"Were you in an abusive relationship at the time that one of them was still in the womb?"
Here eyes lowered and a very faint "yes" came out.
I want to tell you that the Lord says that nothing that that man said about you is true, you are not worthless, you are very beautiful and you are not stupid. As a matter of fact you are a very out going person who loves being the social butterfly. You make everyone laugh and. . ."
I went on to give her some other details and her face began to shine.
One of the girls that was with me from our team took it a step further and told some things about here kids. "You really poured everything you had into your kids but as you look back you see something that you really would have changed. . ." The details were pretty astounding and the lady began to cry. The girl from our team finished with, "Jesus is going to give you the chance to help change some of those things."
While she was giving the word I kept hearing the Lord say "yes she will be married again and this time it will be awesome." When I told her I thought she was going to come out of her seat. By this time the tears were flowing freely.
"I told you the Lord knows exactly what is going on."
"And it seems so do you..." Was her reply to me.
"Only because the Lord tells me. He loves you. If you will surrender your life to Him His Kingdom will come and live in and with you."
IT WAS AWESOME!
After we had prayed with her we turned our attention back to the man behind us who seemed pretty agitated earlier. He now looked like a totally different man. Jesus had given one of the guys on our team a specific word that "read his mail". He was total quiet and listening intently. The Change that came over this man's face was indescribable. Before he was as high as a kite and looked as if he was ready to pounce on the next person that spoke but now hew was just as calm and content.
Soon he was born again...
Jesus is awesome!

This is just a few of the stories that happened that night. I will you keep you updated on others as I have time to write.
