Christian Experience

The Pastor stood up and introduced Dil Bahadur Koted , basically a tribal Evangelist who works in the Villages of Udaipur district. The experience he narrated was that of a family from the village who had spent their entire savings in the treatment of their son who suffered epileptic seizures which had deteriorated his health and the doctors were unable to cure him.

He was referred to a big hospital in the City which was their only hope, The family had no money but a piece of cultivable land which was their recourse and only source of livelihood. They had to make tough decision "the land" or "the son". Finally they mortgaged their land and left the village onward to the city with their ailing son and a hope to find a cure. Several days later the Village saw the family back who were low in spirit and looked dismayed. Their only son was not cured at all. The news came to the Evangelist and he went to console the family. During their conversation the mother appealed sir you are a priest I believe and I have faith that your God will have favour on my son. The Evangelist replied to her Yes, if you have faith in my God your wish will be fulfilled and he knelt down beside the sick boy who had seizures often almost every two to three hours. The Evangelist left the house and in the evening the news came to him that the boy stayed normal the whole day. It has been three month now when this testimony has been shared by Dil Bahadur the boy is absolutely normal and the family acknowledged the true God and have accepted Christianity and are being witness to the mighty God and of what they have experienced...

Kamal Bhil another Evangelist narrated an experience which is hard to believe but its true. He prayed for a sick lady whose grand father served the British Army and now is over 100 years and still living. Who walked to the Church making his difficult way with the help of walking stick through the rugged mountainous trail to see what was it that made his grand daughter live again when they almost had lost hope. As Kamal prayed kneeling down beside her she narrated " it was a large serpent which had wrapped itself around her body and it immediately unwound itself when the prayer began. She exclaimed " I saw it pushing through the door finding its way out".

Little do we realize the power of Prayer in our Christian Experience.
