During my prayer time, I felt led to call brother Grace in Uganda and have him get Rose (pictured left with her husband) on the phone, so I could pray for her to be healed from the blood clot in her leg that she has had for several weeks, which we have been praying for. She was readmitted to the hospital in serious condition a couple days ago. She is the hostess for the Awoja, Uganda fellowship that bro Grace planted a couple months ago, and this attack came in direct response to her hosting the new church. The doctors drew blood from that swollen, hard leg a couple days ago, and were shocked to find that it was thick, black blood like that of a dead person. So after my prayer time, I called and told him what I wanted to do. He said that he was going to ask me to do that very same thing, so we knew that this was the Lord leading us.
We as a family then called brother Grace and had him get sister Rose on the phone with us. So we prayed for her on the phone, as her 21-year-old daughter Brenda, who is a believer in Jesus Christ, laid hands on her swollen leg. As we prayed, the power of God fell upon both sister Rose and sister Brenda, so that Brenda’s hand and whole body began to shake, she saw fire as I prayed, and Rose’s leg grew hot. As we were praying, sister Rose felt the blood flowing up her leg into her hip, and it felt warm. As sister Brenda was laying hands on her mother’s leg, she also felt a pain in her own stomach, so we had her lay hands on her mother’s stomach and we prayed for that to be healed as well. We praised God for her healing, and encouraged sister Rose to continue declaring, “Jesus, by your stripes, I’m healed.” We told her not to accept any bad reports from the doctors, because she will not die but live and tell what the Lord has done. Both I and Jennifer felt the presence of the Lord as we prayed for her today on the phone.
After the call, I sent an email to bro Grace giving glory to God, and he replied with “Hallelujah!” He then wrote:
”Hi brother Len,
When you were praying, my wife and sister Vicky who were in another room felt the power of God moving powerfully in their lives! I too felt the power of God! We thank God, Blessings, br Grace.”
We give God all the praise and honor and glory for what He did in sister Rose's life.
Jesus said, "And these signs will accompany those who believe: In my name they will drive out demons; they will speak in new tongues; they will pick up snakes with their hands; and when they drink deadly poison, it will not hurt them at all; they will place their hands on sick people, and they will get well." (Mar 16:17-18).

Do You Want to Know Him?
If you want to know Jesus personally, you can. It all begins when you repent and believe in Jesus. Do you know what God's Word, the Bible says?
“Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of God, and saying, ‘The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand; repent and believe in the gospel.’” (Mar 1:14b-15). He preached that we must repent and believe.
Please see my explanation of this in my post called "Do You Want to Know Jesus?"
