On the 14th of May, Fort Dix Air Force Base in New Jersey held its annual air show called Power in the Pines. The “Pines” referring to the New Jersey Pine Barrens that surround the area. The “Power” obviously referring to the air power of the many fighter jets and aerial combat equipment on display that day.
Well, with an expected crowd of over 100,000 people, we decided to bring some real power to the pines to overcome the prince of the power of the air and set the captives free. So we brought our team and about 200 Gospels of John to handout.
We quickly noticed that the attraction was also the distraction. Many people we approached who were in obvious need of healing, quickly dismissed our offer because ”I’m heading to the air show.” One woman pushing her husband in a wheelchair actually yelled at us “Leave us alone!” I knew it wasn’t the woman who was yelling and he wasn’t yelling at us but at Jesus.

Andrew, a brand new Team Member, whom I had never met before but only over the phone, met us for one of our outreach outings at Willowbrook Mall. He told us that he had never seen an actual healing before and that he had prayed for people but had never seen an instant healing. As we walked around the mall he witnessed several instant healings take place by the other team members.
After ministering music to the men at the Goodwill Rescue Mission and after packing up my stuff, before leaving, I decided to reach out to the guys directly and just sit down and talk with them.
We were out apple picking with the family and before we got to the orchard, we stopped into a farm store just to look around and see what they had to offer.
So you were prayed for and were healed of your pain. Or, you prayed for yourself and the pain left you. You believed that you were healed.
A woman was walking with difficulty with a cane. I approached her and said: “Excuse me. I noticed your cane. I’m a minister and I pray for people and God heals them. Can I pray for you?”
I met one of their team members whose name was Leo and who was suffering from back pain. He had been prayed for by others on the team and experienced some relief but it was a stubborn demon that still gave him grief. So we took the devil by surprise and knocked it out altogether in 5 seconds flat and Leo was set free. Praise Jesus! You can watch his testimony below.
Avalon met her boyfriend Terry, on the streets. We prayed for Avalon and she was healed of her asthma and Terry from pain in his mouth. We were able to bless them with some clothes and some finances. As we were talking with them, someone gave them a nice warm pizza .
They had been observing how everyone was getting healed and baptized in the Holy Ghost and wanted in on the action. Alright!
We met up with the team at Bryant Park by the fountain. We met Johnny there who was a newcomer to the team and was full of questions. He believed healing was true but had not seen it himself. He had been watching several videos about healing and had prayed for several people but had not seen anyone he prayed for actually get healed. He used as an example, the pain he had in his knee and shared that 3 people had already prayed for it but he had not been healed. 
Then one day came my turn. So I brought in a Dutch sailboat made out of a wooden shoe with sail and all. My parents were Dutch immigrants and had brought this fine specimen with them from their old country, Holland. The kids loved it as I am sure they had never seen such a thing before.
Just as it is forever settled that it is absolutely God’s will that none should perish because He sent His only Son that whosoever should believe in Him should not perish but have everlasting life because Jesus paid the price at the cross for the forgiveness of our sins, likewise it is forever settled that it is absolutely God’s will that none should be sick because He sent His only Son that whosoever should believe that by His stripes we are healed should not be sick because Jesus paid the price in His broken body at the whipping post for the healing of our bodies and that He is entitled to receive that which He has paid the price for in full.
Here are just a few of our encounters:
“Excuse me sir, I noticed your wheelchair. I’m a minister and I pray for people and God heals them. Can I pray for you, sir?” I offered him.
However, this was not the case on this particular day when I was shopping at BJ’s, a local wholesale club here in New Jersey. I asked the Lord, is there really no one here that You want me to pray for? Oh well, if You want me to minister to someone, I know You that will make it happen.
When the service was over, I noticed a man with one leg shorter than the other talking to one of the ministers. It was quite noticeable as he wore a special platform shoe to compensate for the difference. He said his name was Charles and that he was born that way. I asked if I could pray for him and after he accepted, I sat him down on a chair, lifted his legs up and commanded his right leg to grown out in the name of Jesus and match up to his left leg. “I can feel it stretching!” he exclaimed. His leg came out quite a bit but not all the way. “Now that it started growing, it is going to grow all the way.” I assured him. He was very grateful.
We were out on the streets in New York City with our team and bumped into a group of Empire State Building Observatory Ticket Sellers.
He asked me what I did and I shared with him that I was a minister. I also explained that I was here in Dallas at a conference this past week to learn how to train people in healing. “So you can really heal people?” he questioned me. “Yes. Do you have any pain in your body?” I asked him. “Oh, yes! My back is really hurting right now.” he responded. “No problem.” I said, “Let me pray for you”. 
David Hobday, one of our team members, was with us in New York City on one of our mission trips when he wanted to buy some nuts from a street vendor. As he was paying for the nuts, he casually asked her if she had any pain in her body. She said that she had pain in her back.
My wife likes it that I volunteer to go shopping for her, even if it sometimes takes a lot longer than usual. That’s because I seek to find people in need of prayer so I can pray for them and set them free. And the best place to find people is to go where most people go…shopping! 
The biggest problem most homeless people face is identity theft. Think about it. In our complex society, you need a valid ID, a driver’s license or a passport to be able to buy an airplane ticket and to board an airplane. One of the requirements to obtain a valid ID is a birth certificate which, if you have no money or resources, is almost impossible to secure.
“How did you know I was here?” He asked amazed that I had even noticed him. I had introduced myself to him as a minister who prays for people and God heals them and asked if I could pray for him since I had noticed he was walking with a cane. His name was Laurence and he explained that his legs were crushed by the Japanese during the war. 
You Are Healed! Ministries
