Brazil Mission Trip - Day 3

Filed Under God is Good! | Leave a Comment

Thank you Jesus! It has been a great time here so far. It´s now morning the fourth day (sounds like something that has been said before by somebody famous…) and I want to shortly tell a few testimonies from last night.

Sanna didn´t come last night because she needed to rest, so I was going without her for the first time. It was strange, but she got the rest that she needed and is back on the team this morning! I was going with our faithful team member, Jim, and then two women, Dawn and Clarietha, chose to come along and we had a great time.

It wasn´t room for much preaching in that church, because my interpreter had a hard time understanding me so everything took more time than usual. But that was not a problem for God. He made it very simple for us all. He had me talk a little bit about Jesus and what He did while He walked the earth. I said like Jesus, that if you don´t believe me, at least believe the works that I do so that you will know that the Father is in me and I in the Father. So by that I called out to everybody with shoulder problems that they could stand up if they wanted to be healed. God told me that there were people there with shoulder problems so I knew that they would be healed. 14 people got up around in the church! I prayed over them from the stage and asked those who had received healing to come up front to. ALL 14 CAME FORWARD!!! WOW! I just had to ask them again if everyone of them had been healed, and yes. They were crying and smiling and thanking Jesus for His healing power. One lady in her fifties were crying a lot, waving both her arms over her had and praising Jesus loudly! She told us that her shoulders had been inflamed and painful for a long time. The last 8 months it had become much worse and she was in constant pain! She still had to work to bring home money to support her family. She worked with much pain… Now God had healed her and she was so happy!! Clappy happy :-) Later she came up with a child in her arms and her smile was huge! Thank you for being there to heal Holy Spirit. You are awesome! We honor you God. Thank you!

I also called those who had pain in their feet to stand up. A man that was healed came up front to tell us that he had broken a bone in one of his feet. I had just been healed from shoulder pain too and had been limping when I came up last time. This time he didn´t limp! He was stomping his feet on the ground and grinned. He was getting better and better during the night.

This was an awesome evening. Other people got healed too. God told me to do impartation too. The four of us in the team lined up front and people walked by us and we prayed that they would get the anointing and the gifts that we so freely received from God ourself. After that I had everybody who was in need of a healing to stand up. The others in the church was instructed to lay hands on them and heal them in Jesus´name. 10 more got healed!!

After the meeting we went home to a family from church to eat pizza and snacks. They really honored us and God blessed them for it. Thank you so much, Jesus. I believe that this church is going to walk much more in the supernatural from this day on.

Thank you so much for your prayers. You all have a part in everything that happen down here since you partner with us in prayer. Thank you and bless you mightily!

Brazil Mission Trip - Day 2

Filed Under God is Good!, Itinerary, Testimonies | Leave a Comment

Hi again!

It´s a little past 5 pm now and we´ve been to a meeting this morning. It was for pastors and ministers, and we´re going to have a meeting like that every morning this week. In a couple of hours we´re going to have meetings in three different churches. Gary Oates, Chase Turner and I are preaching and inviting the presence of our Holy God to come be with us to save the lost, heal the sick and free those bound by the devil. It´s going to be very good! Jesus is always good! Please pray for us. I´ll update this note later to let you know some of the things that is going to happen. Thank you all for partnering with your prayers. We love you all very much!

Hugs from Krister and Sanna

Update:
It´s been a fantastic evening! The meeting was very good. God showed up, the worship was glorious, people were hungry. I didn´t know what to preach on as I came there this evening, but Holy Spirit didn´t leave me speechless. He really came and thanks to Him there were many people healed tonight! Our team, consisting of Sanna, Jim (our faithful team member from the Colombia trip in January!) and myself did impartation with everybody in the church. It was great! It took some time because there was over 200 people in the church, but it was perfect. We want people to be able to step into the things that we preach. Since they believe they also can lay hands on the sick and see them recover. So that was my focus. To help them see who they are in Christ, and what authority and power they carry as sons of God.

I had a few words of knowledge and had people stand up for me to pray over them. God sovereignly healed 39 people of various conditions!!! Jesus you are the saviour of the world! It was so great! One lady used a walker and had done that for a couple of months because of a knee surgery that left her off worse than before. She couldn´t bend her knee… after I prayed over her and some other people that stood up she was able to bend her knee again and she came up using her walker. I asked her why she still had the walker and so she tried to walk without it; and she did! Glory to God! She walked back and forth, better for every step. In the end when she was going back to her seat, she just folded together the walker and lifted it up! It was so glorious!

One woman gave her life to Jesus for the first time, and two men that had been walking away from Jesus, rededicated their life to the Lord. Tears were streaming down their faces as they had seen the power of the only living God manifest in their midst. They wanted to come back and walk with Jesus again. Hallelujah, there´s a party in Heaven right now!

After the meeting we were invited out to eat pizza. The translators didn´t come so we ended up with 50 people from church, with nobody to translate! It was both fun and interesting. The pizza was very good, even though we couldn´t communicate very well with the people there. We left 12:30 am and went back to the hotel; tired, but full of joy. Thank you for everything you did tonight, Holy Spirit!

Brazil Mission Trip - Day 1

Filed Under Itinerary | 2 Comments

Dear friends,

Sanna and I are now in Bauru, Brazil. It´s a city in Sao Paulo and it´s one of the smaller cities around here. From our hotel room balcony on 14th floor, we can see houses as far as the eyes reach..! It looks like a big city to me… The reason why we are here is to do a mission trip with Gary Oates Ministries. It´s 23 of us here with the group and we all look forward to see what God is going to do this week. We arrived this morning and drove 4-5 hours by bus to get to the hotel in Bauru.

Tomorrow we´re going to have a morning meeting in a church and then we will go to 3 churches in the evening. Gary will be preaching in one church and then two of the interns will take one intern each and a part of the team and go to the other two churches and preach. It´ll be great fun! There is always a lot of people saved, healed and delivered on these trips, and God shows up bigtime! Thank you Jesus for being with us!

Please pray for all of us. Sanna and I will probably preach once or twice each so please keep us in your prayers. Please pray that God will use us and that we will not be in the way of what He wants to do for His children here.

Thank you so much and God bless you!
Love, Krister and Sanna
