Filled with Righteous Indignation today

This prayer was from January 20, 2024.

I had just resigned from my cush Engineering job and 20+ year Petrochemical & Refinery industry career months prior. I didn't know much about the future, but I had asked God that if it aligned with His will, to please allow me to travel around the world to see as many people as I could to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ. I wanted to be the hands, feet, and mouth of God. I didn't know what that would look like or the details of what would unfold to be the best year of my adult life, but found myself on the first of 19-international flights 3 days after this prayer popped in my Bible app feed. I witnessed modern-day miracles EVERYDAY; things I could NEVER imagine happening that solidified my faith that a higher power existed. So many stories told in Spanish, Twi, Thai, Swahili, Creole, Portuguese, Luganda, Makhuwa, English, and more ALL pointing to Jesus. No amount of coincidences could deny His existence. No matter the country, He was there.

I prayed for a young pregnant lady in Uganda after telling her about "a man named Jesus." She accepted Him as her Savior and immediately, the darkness and heaviness that followed her into the room were gone. The pain she had complained about having was no more. Even though I was talking to her for ~40 minutes prior to the prayer, she never looked at me, never made eye contact with me, never talked to me directly, never even changed her bland facial expression. But after that prayer, I immediately felt the heaviness gone, I felt lighter and quickly asked the interpreter to ask the young lady how she felt...if she felt lighter...if she felt different. I knew she did, because I did. I knew the young lady had encountered the power of the Holy Spirit and it changed something. Before the interpreter could finishing asking her my questions, the young mother-to-be turned her whole face to me and smiled. She even chuckled and felt around were her previous back pain was and said it is gone. Wow...wow God...Just wow. I was so broken by God showing up like that.



Chains were broken daily in the name of Jesus like that and in so many other ways! It was just amazing to see, to hear, to bear witness to it occurring. It changes you after having these types of experiences. This is why I stress the importance of supporting Missionaries with prayers, donations, words of encouragement, but even going and seeing for yourself! Go & GROW on a mission trip! Get the exposure! See the things you learn about, read about, hear about FOR YOURSELF! Stop making excuses. Your children are not too young. You have enough PTO. Do it. DO IT! The time is NOW. The state of our world is in desperate need. Put action on your faith. Put your ego aside. You don't know what to say? God will give you the words. You don't know scripture? Start by exchanging 10 minutes of your scroll time to reading Bible verses to learn and understand it and increase the time spent with Him. Where are you in The Story?
