Testimonies from Southern California

I just returned from our mission trip to Fontana, CA with 12 other team members. We were invited by a Guatemalan/Mexican church called Verbo to teach and minister to their congregation for three days. The people were hungry for the supernatural, although they did not have much experience with it. Without going into great detail, God moved powerfully and touched the church so deeply that it will never be the same. There were prophecies, divine encounters, angelic visitations, salvations, and healings. We haven't had a chance to record all of the testimonies yet but there were so many amazing healings. Here is a brief listing of some them:

A grandmother, diagnosed with a cancerous tumor in her leg, felt pain and fire as she was receiving prayer and the tumor disappeared!

The grandmother's son (who came the night after hearing about her mother's healing) recently had surgery to remove gall stones and was simply experiencing the normal pain from post-op. As he was being prayed for, he started to cry and said that all the pain left his body. He was also supposed to have hip replacement surgery but the pain from his hip disappeared during the first prayer. We didn't even pray for his hip!

A woman with psoriasis (skin condition) had some sort of oil miraculously form in her hands as she was being prayed for. The next day her skin was completely healed!

A father who was living with extreme pain in his hip for 35 years and was on strong medications was reluctant to come up for prayer. But because his wife was powerfully touched by God, he came forward and all the pain left his body! His son was also healed of a shoulder injury and he broke down in his father's arms sobbing at what they had just experienced together.

"He called his twelve disciples to him and gave them authority to drive out evil spirits and to heal every disease and sickness." Matthew 10:1
