They recently baptized a young man named Nizar who told them a story that demonstrates the power of Jesus name.

“My uncle’s wife, she couldn’t walk,” Nizar recounted to them. Due to a serious back problem, she was confined to her bed for a year and her weight swelled to 220 pounds.

“My uncle was really lost, he didn’t know what to do,” Nizar said. His uncle had little work and was facing the possibility of relocation to another city. Nizar says his uncle is one of the toughest people he knows. “He even has a tattoo on his body that says, ‘Don’t mess with me; I’ll kick your ass.’

“He didn’t have much money. He had to sell the things he had. It was a very hard time for him,” Nizar said.

A few months went by and his uncle decided to study the Quran and become more Islamic. But after spending several weeks in the Islamic scripture, he became disillusioned and said, “OK, let’s see another thing.” (Photo Credit: God Reports)

At the same time, his wife was in the other room in severe pain.

At this point, he was desperate for any kind of breakthrough and cried out to God.

“OK, (God), what do You want from me? I have been through all this. You know that deep in my heart, I love You. I know that deep in my heart that I am Your child. Why am I suffering like this? Why do You let life hit me like this, break me like this?

“I was rich,” he lamented. “I had a lot of money. I had a lot of friends. What do I have now? I have a sick woman on the bed in the other room yelling all day for a year.”

The he was stunned by a response from above, a Voice that said: Go to your wife and pray in the name of Jesus Christ. Put your hand on her back and she will be healed.

Startled, he put the drink down, jumped up, and …
