Deaf Muslim Healed in Jesus' Name!

About this sermon

This is raw video footage (with subtitles) of a miracle that just happened a few minutes ago (11/9/13) at the Christ for all Nations Gospel Campaign in Accra, Ghana. A man stood before me trembling and overcome with emotion. He had a look of shock on his face. "My name is Mohammed," he said, and he proceeded to tell me his story. He had been deaf for almost two years. He was a Muslim and didn't even intend on coming tonight. He had just arrived in town from another city by train and ventured into the city center (Independence square -- where our campaign is being held). He could not understand anything that was going on so he lied down and went to sleep, and when he woke up, he could hear! I asked him if he knew who had healed him and he said it is "the messenger of the Almighty God...Jesus." The whole thing was so raw and fresh. I could see he was struggling to come to terms with what he had just realized. "Jesus is, Jesus is...he is a God," he said, as though the thought had just occurred to him. He said, even the Koran says if you do not believe in Jesus Christ you are not a good Muslim. He seemed to be trying to justify this to himself. But I wanted to make it clear for the thousands watching this unfold, "Jesus is not just a messenger," I said, "He is the Son of the living God. He is the way, the truth and the life..." By the end of our conversation, he seemed to be settled and completely sure. He said that his wife did not yet know what had happened to him, so he announced the name of the city where he lives and said, "Tell my wife, Jesus is the Son of God!" I wish you could have seen the crowd. No football team has ever received such enthusiasm -- they were jumping and dancing and shouting with joy unspeakable and full of glory. It is a moment I will never forget.
