With God all things are possible!

On Monday, we returned from the Dominican Republic. There is so much that I could share, but I want to focus on what God did there through healings and miracles. I have never experienced such spiritual warfare on a corporate level, but yet such breakthrough and as an open heaven of the presence of the Lord.
Before I get too far a head, I was among many leaders that took our youth to the Dominican Republic this past week on a mission trip. I had mentioned it in a previous post that we were praying and preparing to go. God showed up in amazing ways!
The mission trip was focused on getting the word out of a 4 night crusade that the ministry that we worked with would be hosting later in the week. We walked the streets of many villages, passing out fliers and letting people know, "Venga a la cruzada!" (Come to the crusade!) everywhere that we went. The teens also performed dramas that they had been working so hard at for months in each site that we visited.
Wednesday through Saturday was the crusade. Each evening started out with singing and celebration. It was so fun to dance! I loved the music! After worship, each group took turns performing their dramas on different nights. After the dramas, Dominic (the founder of Dominic Russo Ministries) would preach the Word and then it would be followed by us going up front and laying hands on people for healings and miracles.
I feel like I can't even express in words everything that went on. Not to isolate those who are reading and weren't there, but because it was such a powerful week.
Here are a few testimonies:

*There was a woman sitting in a chair that pointed to her legs. I don't know if she could move them or if they were just in pain. Macy (a girl from the team) and I layed hands on her and prayed. Shortly after, we both looked up and each other knew right away that she had been healed! I told her to stand up and then I thought, "What do I do now?" Then I thought, "Hey! Maybe if I start jumping, she will, too!" So I started jumping really high in the air and she followed me with the same (if not more) energy! This woman was not young, either! She came to life and was healed!!

*Many people in the area were mute and I don't know why. It seemed like we prayed for so many mute people. There was one girl in particular that we prayed for and by the end of the night, she gave a cough drop to one of the girls in my group and talked to her!! Praise the Lord!!

*Last but not least, we prayed for a baby who had hydro-cephalis and his head was huge. We began to pray and I was starting to get a little discouraged. But as I continued to pray, suddenly something broke in the spirit and I knew that he was healed!! Nothing was manifested in that moment, but I believe with all my heart that "these signs will follow those who believe."

GLORIA DIOS! (Glory to God!)
Now we are taking this back with us and we can lay hands on the sick of our nation and they will be healed as well! With God all things are possible!!
