Today´s news is absolutely aston­ish­ing! A mar­ried cou­ple from Nor­way and an Amer­i­can girl who´s intern­ing with Gary Oates Min­istries went to Statesville yes­ter­day. The things they saw down there were beyond their wildest dreams and imag­i­na­tions! It was not pre­med­i­tated. Not planned in any way.

Statesville is a beau­ti­ful place to visit. The sun was shin­ing and the sky was clear. The rea­son why this small group went there yes­ter­day was to go and min­is­ter at a House of Hope and go horse­back rid­ing. When they got down there from Wilkes­boro they got out of the car and saw a dog that was limp­ing badly. His right front leg was obvi­ously hurt and the girls there told them that the dog had been limp­ing for a cou­ple of days already. The young Nor­we­gian man decided that this was the the appointed hour. This was the Lords moment! It was time for that dog to get healed! He got down on one knee beside the dog, laid his right hand on the hurt leg and com­manded pain to leave and heal­ing to flow through that leg, in the name of Jesus. Noth­ing hap­pened! At least noth­ing that could be seen with the nat­ural eye. But what was going on in the spir­i­tual?! The Nor­we­gian had faith, and in per­fect Smith Wig­glesworth style he told the dog to acti­vate it´s faith and walk! The dog obvi­ously had great faith because it started to walk. Still limp­ing though.

After a cou­ple of hours they went horse­back rid­ing. After 5 min­utes they were able to catch up with a dog that was run­ning in front of them. It was the dog that only hours before limped severely! Now it was run­ning in front of them with no sign at all of the limp­ing!! It was healed! Praise you Jesus!! The power of God touched that dog´s leg and took away all the pain. The pain had to bow to the name of Jesus Christ.

This con­cludes today´s news. God is good. All the time!
