Our Guest Aliss Cresswell

ALISS: She was back at work the next day! Yeah, that’s your Jesus too! (laughs) Thank you. So I’m from Chester in the northwest of England. And I’ve, I read the Bible and I see that we can do miracles today. And so I just believe what the Bible says. I believe that God, His word is the truth. And, um, that you know if you know Jesus you are filled with His Holy Spirit. You have the same Holy Spirit living in you that raised Jesus from the dead. The same power that created the universe, the galaxies, is within you. And as you submit your life to Jesus you can do the same things that Jesus did. And in John 14:12 it says we can do even greater things than He did. One day in our cafe we had this young woman come in. She was only 19 years old and she was pregnant with her fourth child. That happens a lot in our neighborhood. They seem to start early. And she brought in her little two and half year old daughter with her. And she said we’ve just been to the eye clinic round the corner and my daughter they think that she’s blind in her left eye. And as I looked at this little girl’s eye I could see that the lid was really far down over her eye and also her left eye was looking that way and her right eye was looking this way. I mean it was like so… you know such a lazy eye, you could just… poles apart. So she had only come in for a glass of water. She’s not heard about the miracles in our cafe. But I said to her, I said well Jesus likes to do miracles. Can I pray for your daughter’s eye and Jesus will heal her? She says to me she says well I don’t believe in Jesus. So I said well He believes in you. So can I pray anyway? She’s like oh go on then. You know? So she let me pray. And I just very gently put my hands next to this little girl’s eye. And I said in the name of Jesus. Because at the name of Jesus every name has to bow. It’s got to do as it’s told. So you just, you can just use that authority. You know I’m just like everybody else, to be walking in the same authority that Jesus would walk in when He was on the earth. He demonstrated to us what we can do. So I said I command the eyelid to open and for the eye to go straight. Suddenly this young woman the mother she’s saying Oh my God! Oh my God! Oh my God! And I was like what is it? And she said look at her eye! So I looked at her eye and the eyelid just went “bing!” Well it didn’t make the noise…
