Strength for the Day #212

Last week, Brother Manish ended by sharing the repeated beatings he endured in prison for his faith. This week, hear how Manish's experience in prison shifted after he was asked to speak to the other prisoners about a "religious festival" coming up, Good Friday.

After praying for opportunities to share God's Word in prison, Manish was allowed by the jailer to share, from his heart, the story of the gospel on Good Friday. The jailer even gave him extra time to speak!

The next day, Brother Manish was summoned to the jailer's office. He expected another beating, the "price" for preaching the gospel the day before. Instead of a beating, God opened a door for amazing ministry! God revealed to Manish specific problems the jailer and his family were facing, including his son's long-term illness. Manish asked if he could pray for these specific needs, and the jailer was shocked, asking, "How did you know?"

"The Lord Jesus is the living God," Brother Manish said. Manish asked the jailer to bring his son for prayer. The jailer and his son knelt down before Manish, and he prayed. In faith, he told the jailer and his son that God would heal him in seven days.

The Lord worked a miracle in the jailer and his son's life, and Manish not only received better treatment but was able to minister and share the gospel anywhere in the five wards of the prison. He now knew why the Lord had brought him to the jail.

Listen as Manish shares his ongoing court case and the story of the day he was released from prison after spending 99 days in jail—with a personal escort from the chief jailer. Please pray for Brother Manish, his wife, and family as he continues to recover from the injuries he endured, and for his family to continue to be bold and trust the Lord.
