Roberto

We spent our last week in Mexico City.
It was monday and we were in the upper room of the house we were staying, worshiping and praying. God's presence was so thick. Sometimes when God is moving you just have to go, or you miss out. So we went. We took the guitar and some signs and we went down to the metro station. As we continued to worship there, people began to come up and ask for prayer.
We began to see people get healed and set free. A woman, whose name I don't remember, had been in a car accident. Cat and I prayed for her, and all the pain in her body disappeared. Don't we serve a good God?
A few minutes later we were praying for a couple of ladies and I was startled by the sudden image of hurdling off the bridge we were standing on. Setting that aside we continued to pray.
A man shuffled up and grabbed Cat's arm. His mouth was barely moving and we couldn't understand him so we asked Reuben, one of the local guys with us, to help us out. This man, Roberto, led us to the ledge of the bridge and as he looked over the road below he, managed to whisper out a little of his story. Reuben shared it with me and I shared it with Cat. Roberto hadn't been able to speak properly in nine years.
So we began to pray. Reuben shared the gospel with Roberto. Yes, he wanted Jesus to come into his life! Whispering prayers of repentance and acceptance-right there Roberto came to the Lord. Then Reuben told me (in spanish) lets pray now for healing.
So we prayed and as we did, a few things happened. We encouraged Roberto to begin to say the name of Jesus. he did, and as He did His tongue began to loosen, his mouth began to open wider. This man began to speak out in more than a whisper "Jesus, Salvador-Jesus, Jesus, Salvador" Over and over. Then  he began to spit stuff out of his mouth onto the road below. Globs of multiple colors went hurling to the road below- one big red chunk was so large I saw it hit the ground.
God brought salvation and healing that day to the life of Roberto!
The next day we held a service at the place were we were staying- Roberto came, in the front row as we were worshiping he was raising his hands with the biggest smile and proclaiming "Amen-Amen"
Don't we serve an amazing God?!
