Evangelist Dana Morey with me
Please let me introduce my great friend Dana Morey. He is my friend. He is a successful businessman. Everybody likes Dana. You want to know why? Because he cares about everyone in his path. I can not tell you the many times he has blessed our family. He and his wife have supported each and every one of our ministry endeavors. He has believed in us 100%.
When I heard he and his awesome team were going to be in Uganda, at the same time we were, I had to be there to support him, and because I wanted to my family to see God's power and glory through his ministry. So we hopped in our vehicle and drove 9 hours to the town of Kabale to catch a glimpse of this awesome crusade.
Kampala to Kabale is about a 9 hour drive
We got to the crusade about an hour too late on Saturday, so we had dinner with his team, and heard so many stories...but did not get to see or feel them. The next day however was amazing. God is real my friends. He still heals and restores. I remember sitting in my Tuesday men's bible study discussing the book of Acts, and several questions were asked, "Does God still raise people from the dead? Does He still make the blind to see? The deaf to hear? The lame to walk? I too felt the doubt and wondered these things. Do I have to fly 10,000 miles, then drive 450 km to find this out? I guess so.
Are we in the front row?
On a side note, as a father, I long for my children to see God for themselves, to have Christ become real to them...not just their "parents Christianity" I mentioned this to Dana a few months ago. I know for a fact that he and Karman pray for our kids often. What shocked me was right before Dana went on stage in front of thousands and thousands of people, he asked his wife Karman to invite Hope and Michael up on stage...FRONT ROW! (there was very limited room) This was so they could have a great view of the testimonies...what a lifetime opportunity!
Note Mike and Hope in the back in shock.
Dana preached the best Gospel presentation I have ever seen. I was moved to tears as he described how intensely God loved me, and how Jesus bore the pain of all my sins on the cross. As the tears were rolling down my face, I saw a girl in the crowd, so moved as Dana was describing God's love for us, she was so moved with grief over her own sin.
She raised her hand to believe in Jesus, but kept one hand in sincere grief.
Thousands upon thousands of people gave their hearts to Christ. It was an unbelievable experience to see the crowds response. Looking out on the sea of faces, I saw hope and excitement and relief.
The spirit of God fell on this place
There were many healings, blind people who were blind for all their life, were seeing! Deaf people heard for the first time, several lame people walked! My favorite healing story is this woman and her twins...
Here is a part of Dana's blog..."The last night of the Festival, one woman who had two daughters with Epilepsy testified. She was demon possessed and delivered at our event. She brought with her two daughters who would fall into epileptic fits three times a day - everyday. Morning, noon and night, it was the same. To my amazement, the mother and her two children were at that same moment healed! It was the third day without the fits when she gave her testimony. Those dear children had those fits three times every day without fail until she was set free."
So amazing. So incredible. Praise the Almighty One.
