No Longer a Slumdog<br />
In response to his request, two missionaries went to extend<br />
whatever help they could. They talked with the family about<br />
Jesus and explained the Gospel. Finally, they laid hands on the<br />
woman and prayed that God would heal her.<br />
Just as we read in the Word of God, the Lord in His mercy did<br />
just that. The news spread like wildfire throughout the small village.<br />
Through this miracle, several others came to k<strong>no</strong>w the Lord.<br />
The following week, more families placed their faith in Jesus.<br />
To understand how incredible this is, it’s important to k<strong>no</strong>w<br />
that this particular community had earlier shown <strong>no</strong> interest<br />
whatsoever in hearing the Good News. It was <strong>no</strong>t until Nibun’s<br />
mother was healed that they wanted to k<strong>no</strong>w more.<br />
Subsequently, the first church in the history of this community<br />
was soon established. Now the life-changing Gospel continues<br />
to spread to neighboring villages,<br />
See how God brings new life to a family.<br />
and more people are coming to k<strong>no</strong>w<br />

Think about it. What if Nibun<br />
was given a good education, plenty of food, clothes and all the<br />
same physical benefits we had provided him, but never had a<br />
chance to learn about the Lord Jesus Christ and the Word of<br />
God; what would have happened<br />
Would he have been able to tell his father about the “medical<br />
doctor named Jesus” who healed his mother How many people<br />
would have come to k<strong>no</strong>w the Lord that day Perhaps there<br />
would be <strong>no</strong> church in that village. Without the liberating power<br />
of Christ’s love, how many people would still be living with the<br />
mindset of being trapped, worthless and hopeless<br />
It is so important that we do <strong>no</strong>t look at physical assistance<br />
