Tales From Japan, Okinawa - Healings Breakout and Spread to others in Japan

I was so excited to see God work in Okinawa in so many ways

Last Sunday night I arrived in Okinawa and on Monday I gathered together for a time of sharing about Dynamic Church Planting training.  That was a great time to seek the LORD, network, pray, and get to know one another before our training event coming up (April 24-26)

As we were having dinner at the church which opens its doors to feed neighborhood families, I encountered a woman in a lot of pain.  She couldn't stop talking about how much it hurt and how she could barely move without pain.  Pastor Naomi from the church said let's pray and after everyone had ate we took the woman aside and began to pray.  She sat calmly as I began to lay on hands and rebuke and cast out the sickness in every area she told me.  She had side, chest, neck, shoulder pain and a headache.  Within in less than a minute her whole body began to get very hot she said.  At this point I asked her to stand up and walk around and tell me how she felt.  She was completely shocked.  Everything was gone.  No pain anywhere.  You can see her reaction in the video below.




Also after that others began to line up for prayer.  We saw miracles from severe stomach pain being healed to blind eyes seeing and even family members were healed at the same time in other areas of Okinawa.  In the video below a generational condition of bad eye sight was healed in Jesus' name simultaneously.  The healings even continued into the next day as I went together with some others to pray in a local park.

The FB videos are in Japanese but I think most will understand what is going on.  I was so inspired about what God was doing I did a FB live to explain with the hopes of equipping and inspiring others to do the same.








I podcasted about the healings which also led to more people being healed because the faith for healing became contagious.  So often we do not have because we do not ask God, nor do we believe. This is a struggle for me even after seen such amazing miracles.  The walk of faith requires daily renewing our mind in the word and stepping out from what is comfortable into a real RISK.  Yes faith causes us to risk something.  But the sacrifice of humiliation or akwardness is nothing compared to the price JESUS paid, nor can it come close to the glory when GOD shows up and does a wonder in our midst.

Teaching English in Japan with His Word - Videos and Podcasts

For the last two years I have been teaching weekly English classes in Japan using the Bible.  The class is basically free and I do not charge students anything and all are welcome.  I would get a variety of students from high schoolers, salarymen and seniors.  With the new addition of FB live, I have been able to even share the classes to hundreds of viewers online as well.  Also I have begun podcasting with the same idea of sharing English through the Bible for Japanese listeners on GBC-radio.

I started podcasting His Word in mid-August last year and now have split my podcast into two levels. A beginner level on Monday and Thursday will be an podcast for more advanced students.





It is exciting to see this ministry grow and share God's Word with many who are hearing it for the first time.  I discuss not only the English meanings but the context of the passage as well to the students and listeners.

 God is now calling me from the classroom portion of the ministry for a time to reboot things.  This will be my last month teaching classes for free in Fukuoka at Daimyo Cross Garden.  Exactly two years ago His Word English started as an idea, a leading from the Holy Spirit and it has grown and I believe that even though I will be temporarily stopping the classroom portion (podcasts will continue) I am confident God will give me direction on how to expand it so that more Japanese can hear and learn English through His Word.

Thanks for those who have prayed and supported my ministry.  I look forward to the new direction God will provide for the ministry.

We had a great time in Okinawa! God was moving in many ways as we did the three day training. Some were able to attend a day or so and some others were able to receive training and also answer the call to partner in sponsoring and assist with more trainings in Okinawa in 2017. Listen to me and Chris Centeio from DCPI headquarters talk about what went on in the training. Also check out the photos and live videos below.
