Madam Jane This little girl can't talk

A little over a week ago one of our pastors came to me to ask for help for a little girl in his church. He said suddenly she could not talk. It was if she had no control over her mouth. She could not make a sound. I sent Amos to pick up this little girl and bring her to the clinic. Dr could not find anything physically wrong with her but was concerned enough to question her separately. What she wrote in a discription is very much like a ritual that is done in voodoo but she said it was while she was a sleep. This child was surrounded by prayer. A couple of days later in her sleep he ability returned to speak but the pastor noticed when she would try to sing praises the problem would return. During a play time during church the child began to cry and kept saying see the man in front of me is trying to make me eat what is in his hand. But the Pastor's wife said there was no one there. Emmanuel and I went to the home of the child but the grown ups in the household chose not to be there. Pastor told us that the father was not a Chrisitan and was afraid that they wanted to take the child to a witch doctor. We prayed over this child in her home. But she was not alone. Several children followed us into a small room not much bigger than a small bathroom which was there house. We prayed over all of the children. One young man was about 14 and asked to recieve Jesus in his heart. What an afternoon. I plan to return to this house again. I hope to take a book with me to read Bible Stories to these children. I want them to learn that Jesus loves them and can protect them from the evil that surrounds them. It has increased my desire to reach children outside of our schools as well as those inside. Everytime I visit a school I see eyes peering through the wall wishing they could come in and sit down. I want to begin preparing to reach these kids. I know the Lord wants us here and that our present financial problem is going to be solved. I know that there are others out there who have a love for these children as well and are waiting for the opportunity to partner with us to keep us here where God has called us to be. We serve an amazing God. I am reading a book called Limiting God and It has opened my eyes to how we limit God everyday through things like unbelief, fear, disobedience, and pride. I have sat in each camp many times in my life and I am striving to not visit it anymore and God is here to help me.

Our Father in Heaven, I agree with Jane that she and Bud are where you want them to be and that you will provide for their needs to serve You there. I also agree that "greater is the Holy Spirit that is in them than the evil spirits that are in the world". I ask you, Father, to continue to give them discernment of spirits, and to lead them to souls that want to be saved by the blood of Jesus. Please give Bud and Jane physical protection by the surrounding of your invisible angels. Please provide the food and shelter they need. The gas and diesel they need, the parts and repairs, the medical supplies, the Bibles and helps they need. Also give them the people they need, both Haitians and missionaries, to carry out your work for them there. Thank you Father for what You are doing in their midst right now in Jesus name, amen.
