The Holy Spirit accomplished what a large rescue party using drones, K-9 units, and even aircraft failed to do – find a three-year-old lost in a thick wooded area of southeast Texas. Christopher Ramirez vanished around 1:30 p.m. on October 13th as his mother, Araceli Nunez, unloaded groceries from her car. Apparently, Christopher followed a neighbor’s dog into the woods and
got horribly lost. The Sheriff’s Department organized a search party that combed the woods day and night, but turned up no sign of the child. Meanwhile, Tim Halfin was in a Bible study when he learned about the missing toddler and felt the Holy Spirit’s prompting to join the search. “Words cannot describe how I felt when I held him for the first time,” Nunez said with her arms still

clinging to him. “It was incredible.” Nunez gushed over Christopher, telling him she loves him. Halfin was shown a photo of a smiling Christopher after he was reunited with his mom. “That’s what it’s all about right there,” Halfin told ABC. “That’s why everybody was praying. That’s why God laid it on my heart to go look, to reunite that boy with his mom.” +++

Brant Cole is a fiery tain villages around him. 31-year-old pastor at the During the days,
Walloon Lake Community Church, situated in an affluent Michigan resort town. In 2019, he felt strongly led by the Holy Spirit to take a team of teenagers to their sister church in Haiti, he told God Reports. Students from all three of their church campuses around Walloon Lake participated. The Haitian church they visited in the mountains in Desriveaux has a remarkable pastor who travels by foot or by motorcycle to seven churches he oversees. He tirelessly works to serve the poorest of the poor in the remote moun-
they taught and played with the children, along with distributing food and supplies. On the last day of the trip, Brant felt they had accomplished a lot, but his heart was burning for the “power of God” to be manifested. The night before, they had preached the gospel in the open square. He felt that there was still something left that God wanted to do. Brant was hearing from the Holy Spirit to pay attention. Suddenly as they were driving down a village street, he saw a non-descript woman and
told the driver to stop the truck because he needed to tell her about Jesus. This surprised woman kept saying that she couldn’t receive Jesus because she had too many debts to the devil. Repeatedly they told her that Christ died to take away every debt and every sin in our past. Surprisingly, she invited the team of young people to her house. After sharing the gospel with her more fully in her home, the power of the Word and the Spirit burst into her heart and she was born again.

Later, they found out from other villagers that this woman was, in fact, the local witch doctor! “Other Christians had for years tried to witness the love of God to her, but she refused,” Brant told God Reports. “Now we see the blessing of how God works. He brought a little team of willing teenagers to a distant land and wrought a miracle!” But this was not the end of the story. The team returned to Walloon Lake and word of the miracle spread. Empowered by the Spirit, the teenagers began spreading the word about the greatness of God. When COVID hit and everything was locked down, including the church, Pastor Brant was shocked to find the youth parking their cars with tailgates open to meet and study the Bible – they were having tailgate parties for Jesus! He was further surprised to find these teens meeting on front porches,
coming together to write sermons. The Word of God began to multiply and expand. “These students were not just changed in their own lives, but are sincerely on fire for Jesus to change the lost around them,” he said. “The impact of what God did was indeed life-changing for everyone who went on the trip.” Pastor Brant said the “z generation” that he ministers to has experienced the greatest change in communication since the invention of the printing press. “They have only known a life filtered through ever changing technology and media. In Christ alone and in the Word of God can they find something certain and unchanging that gives their life value and grounding. The trip to Haiti and the salvation of the witch doctor was a defining moment in their lives!” Watch on Youtube: youtu.be/2dIU5zS5Yk8
