Prophecy and Healing in Dimona, Israel

Sean Steckbeck, one of my online friends, recently posted this testimony at Faith and Fellowship Forums, a board I frequent. Sean lives in Beer Sheva, Israel, where he is heavily involved in house church ministry. He is also perfecting his skills as a tour guide. Here, with his permission, is what he recently experienced:

Well, today I was shopping at the local grocery store here in Beer Sheva and the Holy Spirit kept on speaking to me “Dimona!”

Dimona is a town of around 40,000 people and is around a 20 minute drive southeast from Beer Sheva. Most people know this town because of Israel’s nuclear plant. It is a highly religious/traditional town made up of Eastern Jews (Yemen, Morocco, etc.). Most importantly, it is unreached, with no congregations. TACF [Toronto Airport Christian Fellowship] and John Arnott once did a conference in Dimona, no one from Dimona showed up, of course, it was mainly from congregations all over the other cities in the Negev and some from Jerusalem, etc. Dimona just provided a cheap meeting hall fit for all congregations together. Anyways, it is an unreached city.

So the Holy Spirit spoke to me tonight, I jumped in the car and drove 20 minutes to Dimona to obey the Lord.

After I parked at an outdoor shopping center, the Holy Spirit spoke to me about someone with a neck problem in the sporting goods store. So I went in the store and there were only 3-4 people in that store. I asked who has a problem with their neck, and two people actually did out of 3-4. One of them , M, got prayed for and was healed and gladly received a NT [New Testament].

Next I went to the grocery store to buy some snacks and get a divine appointment. While in the check-out lane, the Holy Spirit speaks to me about a leg problem and shoulder problem, it happened to be the guy in front of me who then was in total shock. Then I looked at his wife and said, “you have chronic headaches.” They shouted, “Where in the world did you come from?”

So I followed them out to their car, prayed for them, and they were healed, receiving also a NT.

The Holy Spirit then spoke to me to go to the pub of the city. After arriving in the pub, they asked me what I came for. I told them that God sent me and he wants to heal the sick. One man asked me to pray for his back problem, shocked, he was healed. Afterwards, the manager of the pub had neck problems. I prayed for him, also in total shock, he was healed. Then I prayed and prophesied over the girl serving at the bar. Shocked, she was totally healed also of chronic headaches. They gave me their phone numbers and want to be in touch. They are all sabra native Israeli Jews. The manager of the bar gave me a free drink as a “thank you!” I preached the gospel about Yeshua and they all received my message and want to know more.

There was a Bedouin watching all the bar healings (what a Muslim Bedouin was doing in a bar, I have no idea) ... anyways, he was so interested, he also wanted to talk to me about this and took my phone number.

Remember the Negev Bedouins, numbering over 100,000 and living mostly in the Beer Sheva-Dimona-Arad area, have only one known believer right now meeting with us that got saved last month!

So anyways, praise God for a fruitful spontaneous trip!

Sean added this follow-up in an email to me:

I just got a phone call from the couple at the grocery store an hour ago. He got his brother on the phone and the Lord gave me some prophetic words. It was right on.

We will meet with their entire family next week to speak about the gospel. They invited us!

An unreached city could have its first congregation.

Praise the Lord!

God is reaching into Dimona with the good news of Yeshua the Messiah.

More, Lord. Thank You for Your marvelous grace!

Healed and Declared Cancer-Free

Georgian and Winnie Banov, of Global Celebration, share this testimony in their “Bliss Report” of a woman who was healed of a rare form of cancer. She had been diagnosed as terminal, but following the healing, her doctor declared her cancer-free.

Three months ago, we held a city-wide “Healing Explosion” in Seattle. Heidi Baker was our guest speaker for Thursday night, and before sharing her message Heidi invited everyone who had been diagnosed with a terminal disease to come forward and find a resting spot on the platform. The stage quickly filled up with people who were desperate for a healing touch from Jesus. Some sat and others laid down with pillows and blankets. Next, Heidi called all of the children forward to pray for the sick. The children began to sweetly minister, and Heidi began to preach her message. As the people on the platform soaked in the in the Glory, the Lord did His wonderful work.

The precious woman whose head was fully bandaged and covered in a black scarf (seen above) had been diagnosed with a very rare form of cancer in February. That night, she prayed with Heidi to receive Jesus, AND she was healed. Her daughter wrote to us after visiting the Doctor on Monday. Her physician used these exact words, “Go live your life, you are CANCER FREE!”— Praise you King Jesus!

Divine Intervention: True Stories of Heaven Invading Earth by Julia Loren

“There's a blaze of light in every word ... This riveting collection of stories lifts us into the awe of knowing that Biblical accounts of encounters with God are available to all of us today. Ordinary believers and current church leaders tell you about their Encounters on the Road Less Traveled, Angel Sightings and Life-Changing Spiritual Experiences. As you read, know this God is as near to you as your own heartbeat. It is the Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom, too. Stories from filmmakers, prophets, pastors, housewives, students, and businessmen give a glimpse of a God's kingdom manifest as they: entertain angels unaware that they are not humans; experience a vision that transforms their ministry; encounter God on the road less traveled; and enjoy the presence of Jesus while becoming saturated in His love.”

Healing Among the Boxcar Gypsies

Global Celebration, a ministry founded by Georgian Banov and his wife Winnie, reports these healing miracles as they have ministered in Bulgaria Gypsies in a little are known as the "Boxcars": A woman is healed of toothache by a word of knowledge. A young man is healed of back pain by a word of knowledge. His wife is healed of a cyst by prayer. (You might notice some of the gypsies shaking there heads from side to side. In the States, this means No, but in Bulgaria, this means Yes.)

Gypsy Woman Healed of Paralysis

A gypsy woman is healed in Jesus' name through the ministry of Georgian and Winnie Banov (Global Celebration):

This woman suffered a stroke 7 months ago and was completely paralyzed on one side of her body. The Lord healed her instantly when we prayed for her. Her husband, her daughter and people from the village were all rejoicing and thanking Jesus!

Stephanie Dunn Healed of Paralysis

Ben Dunn shares the story of how his wife Stephanie was healed of paralysis. The doctors had given her up to a wheelchair for the rest of her life, or at best, a walker or cane. Miraculously healed by supernatural glory of the Lord, in Jesus' name.

Spirit-Filled Southern Baptist Pastor on Miracles and Manifestations

Here is a review of Miracles and Manifestations of the Holy Spirit in the History of the Church by J. Lewis, a Spirit-filled pastor of a Southern Baptist Church:

I am thrilled to no end to have in my hands a wonderful book written by Jeff Doles, Miracles and Manifestations of the Holy Spirit in the History of the Church.

This book provides documentation of the operation of spiritual gifts and manifestations of the Holy Spirit throughout the history of Christianity, just what I have been seeking for a couple of years.

As a Spirit-filled pastor of a Southern Baptist Church, I often encounter people who have been misled by erroneous doctrines and misconceptions about the Holy Spirit and His present day ministry in and through Christians. While this book does not present an argument against Cessationism; it does present a concise record of healings, miracles, and manifestations of spiritual gifts throughout the centuries since the ascension of Christ. There is abundant testimony given to demonstrate that the Holy Spirit has operated through both ordinary believers and ministers of the gospel when they dared to believe the promises of Christ in the Word of God.

My heart soars like a hawk as I read of the mighty manifestations of the Spirit in the lives of His people through the ages. I just read through a section relating multiple incidents of the word of knowledge in the ministry of Charles Spurgeon and of miracles, healings, trances and visions, and people falling out under the power of God in the ministry of John Wesley.

This is an excellent resource for any minister who hungers for the power of God to be demonstrated in his life and ministry.

Without doubt, this book will stir your heart, enlarge your vision for the work of Christ, and encourage you to trust God for miracles and healings today.

Faith Like Potatoes

Faith Like Potatoes (DVD)

“The South African crowd stared in stunned silence as Angus Buchan proclaimed to them, ‘This year we are going to plant potatoes!’ Is he crazy? Despite the crowd's reluctance, Angus Buchan knew about something stronger than the impending El Nino drought — he believed the promises of God. Angus had a faith like potatoes — a ‘real, tangible faith that will sustain us every day.’ Through unlikely friendships and much needed divine intervention, he discovers his life's true purpose and it sustains his unwavering belief in the power of faith. A moving life journey of a man who, like his potatoes, grows his faith, unseen until the harvest.”

Inspiring true story. Angus Buchan did not have an easy life, but he learned to meet his challenges with faith in God, and that made all the difference — he experienced some pretty powerful miracles, including raising a woman back to life who had been struck by lightning. A farmer in Zululand in South Africa, he sowed potatoes in a drought season, which was a pretty insane thing to do. But believing he was led by God, he did it anyway — and received a remarkable harvest of big potatoes. He’s still doing some amazing things today, reaching his region in Africa with the gospel of Jesus Christ. The movie, along with a bonus feature about Frank Buchan and his continuing ministry, shows some remarkable miracles.
