A GREAT TESTIMONY ON NIGHT
SEEDS
In response to my Wednesday
Preach letter on planting night seeds, I got this great testimony from my
friend,
Dan Van Allen. You’re
going to learn even more about what can go on while we sleep, both on the evil side,
and more importantly, on God’s side:
“Hi Carolyn: The
statement, ‘spirit does not sleep,’ reminded me of a meeting I had a few months
back. I was asked if I could come to a customer’s home and be
involved with ministering healing. About a year earlier I had done some
work at their home. We did a lot of talking on the topic of healing. So about a
year later I get a call telling me that Franco, the husband, has pancreatic
cancer and there is nothing more the doctors can do.
So along with me being
there, this married couple 80 years in age were to be there. They had spent 60 years
of their life ministering in the backcountry of Central America.
After being about 2 hours late, Franco gets ahold of them on the phone and asks
if they are still coming. Franco, understandably getting a bit concerned, since
it’s his life he is fighting for. I loved the answer they gave to Franco, ‘We
will be there when we get there.”
Once there, they told
many stories. Many of their dealings were with witch doctors—curses placed
on families had to be gotten rid of, and getting a witch doctor that a
performed over 40 human sacrifices to the gods, healed and born again.
This gets me to the point of the story.
Franco and his wife
Alicia then told of how while sleeping they would feel as though they were
being bitten on their legs while they thought they were dreaming. In the
morning when they awoke, teeth bite marks were on their legs.
That’s when the
missionary said spirit does not sleep. The battle continues while you
sleep. So I asked them a question about something I have experienced many
times since I have been a Christian. While sleeping, what I thought was a
nightmare. I would be casting out a devil in the name of Jesus Christ. It would
be a real fight. They said, ‘That’s not a nightmare. Your spirit is
fighting, and that you have the presence of mind to put your spirit into action
while sleeping is very good.’
So this sleep info
just continues to show the incredible spiritual realm in which we live. Franco
continues to be healthy 6 months after being told nothing more can be done
for him.
Love how you continue
to run the race!
Dan Van Allen”
Thank you, Dan, for
sharing such vital information! And yes, I continue to run the race. We all need to.
Let’s continue to grow in faith, knowledge,
and the amazing wisdom that only God can give.
And we’ll continue to spread the good news of physical
and mental healing and deliverance through the power and name of our Lord Jesus
Christ, “according as his divine power hath given
unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge
of him that hath called us to glory and virtue” (2 Peter 1:3).
“That at the name
of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth” (Phil. 2:10).
Love, Carolyn
