It is almost like "a space only to ourselves"
as if we are baptised into the Lord's blessings.
☆Bright blue sky, skyful of stars,
bubbling sound of the valley river, green of Kitayama cedars,
trees wave in a breeze, warble of the birds...
Hallelujah! Thank you, Lord!!
We cannot help but praising God.
☆Last year, on August 20, 2001, Pastor Yoshida and Brother B came to see
the lands around here in Keihoku in search of the land for the prayer house.
And you know what?
A year later, the prayer house was built on the land they were looking for
and on August 20, 2002, one year later, Summer camp of
the Church School was held.
It is exactly one year later.
Children who heard about Jesus for the first time made
the confession of faith, saying
"I want to believe Jesus."
"I want to know more about Jesus."
and "I want to read the Bible."
5 young souls: they are students of elementary school, junior high school,
high school, and vocational school.
The young souls made the confession of faith!!
Hallelujah! Thank you, Lord.
Who could have imagined such a wonderful thing?
This great grace is given to us one year later.
The Lord who is faithful told us repeatedly in prophecies,
"In August, I will give great blessings to the church."
"What will happen in August?"
We have been looking forward for the time to come,
with prayer and excitement for the Lord.
Look, what happened?
The Lord who is faithful has also done a work of great and wonderful
grace on the illness of Pastor Yoshida.
God restored the blood vessel that had become narrow.
At first, the doctor said,
"the blood vessel that has once become narrow cannot be restored!"
However, the church prayed.
Holding God's word tightly, all of us continued to pray.
At this Prayer House of the Water Brooks also,
we all prayed for the cerebral blood vessels of Pastor Yoshida one-heartedly.
The words of doctors are mere words of humans.
We have experienced the healing work of the Lord Jesus.
Truly, in this August, great blessings are given to our church.
Hellelujah! I praise the blood of Jesus.
With the 5 new souls, the blood vessels of Pastor Yoshida were also renewed.
Seeing the result of check-up, the doctor said that the blood is flowing
smoothly and nothing is wrong with the blood vessels.
No aneurysma nor hardened artery is found.
The Lord lives.
The Lord who was resurrected is the healer,
and the omnipotent Lord.
I praise the name of the Lord.
☆Let us always pray to the Lord who answers our prayers.
Let us not hinder the work of the Holy Spirit,
but trust in God's words and follow Him.
If you would believe, you would see the glory of God.
