The Light overcomes darkness

Tears when experiencing jesus - salvation

This precious woman came to the gospel campaign on the third night. She had tears come down her face as she heard the gospel message and what it means to repent and start to follow Jesus. The next day, she came back and after the gospel message that night, she decided to surrender to Jesus and give her heart to Him. It is the most beautiful miracle when a person lost in darkness gets pulled into the light through the power of salvation. May our hearts always be moved by the life-changing truth of Jesus still saving lives. He is still freeing the captives. He is still healing the brokenhearted. He is bringing salvation to the lost and hope to the hopeless. Now the greatest adventure of following Jesus awaits her.

FROM BLINDESS TO SIGHT

Simwamba came to the first night of the gospel campaign, traveling multiple hours. He heard there would be miracles and that was enough reason for him to make the journey. On stage, he shared how his family had a history of serious eye conditions. For him, the issue was that he could no longer see out of his left eye. After visiting the doctor, he was told he had a cataract blocking his vision. The doctors recommended a procedure to scrape it off, but Simwamba declined. He believed that God would heal him miraculously. When he heard about the gospel campaign, he said to himself, “That is where God will heal me.”
 

After we prayed for the sick in the name of Jesus, Simwamba opened his eye, and he could see. “I felt the power of God like electricity go through my body,” he shared. His sight was completely restored by Jesus.


The next day, Simwamba returned to testify again, full of joy and gratitude. He was able to correctly identify the number of fingers being held up, something that was impossible for him to do before. Jesus still opens eyes, and Simwamba is living proof. We heard later how Simwamba went around town telling people about how Jesus opened his blind eye. May we too, have the testimony of Jesus on our lips wherever we go. He is worthy of our praise and adoration. He is worthy to be made known to this world.

FROM LIMPING IN PAIN TO DANCING IN JOY

Margaret Imuni came to the third night of the gospel campaign. She was suffering from intense pain in both legs for the past nine months. She had to bend forward to walk because of the pain and showed us how she used to sway from side to side just to manage each step. Margaret shared that she sells vegetables for a living. One morning, while opening the doors of her vegetable shop, something pricked her right foot, causing severe pain. Ever since then, she had trouble walking and doing the work at her shop in that pain.
 

After the preaching of the gospel, we prayed for the sick in the name of Jesus. In that time Jesus touched Margaret with His power. She said, “I felt something in my legs. Something came out of my leg,” and immediately all the pain left. She was able to walk just like before the accident. For the first time in nine months, she was able to walk perfectly, without pain or limp.
 

Overwhelmed with joy, Margaret said, “I don’t even know what I can say to my God.” We asked her, “What would you say to God for what He did for you today?” With a big smile and hands lifted in the air, she answered, “My God, You are so wonderful.”

SET FREE FROM THE EFFECTS OF EPILEPSY

Aliness came to the first night of the gospel campaign suffering from severe symptoms caused by epilepsy. Eleven months earlier, she had a nightmare in which someone stabbed her in the abdomen with a sharp instrument. When she woke up, she realized it was just a dream but later that very day, she suffered her first seizure. From that moment on, she began experiencing ongoing epileptic episodes.
 

Despite receiving strong medication from the hospital, her condition only worsened. The seizures became more frequent, more painful, and more intense. She began to lose her memory, and doctors informed her that the repeated seizures were affecting her brain function. Her health declined to the point that she began wetting the bed at night, something caused by the neurological impact of her condition.
 

When Aliness heard about the gospel campaign, she decided to come to the field, desperate for a miracle. After the gospel message when praying in the name of Jesus, she felt something change. “I felt a lightness I hadn’t felt in a long time,” she shared.
 

Several days later, Aliness returned to the Testimony Tent to confirm what the Lord had done. She said, “From the first day of the crusade when I received my healing, I feel better and am no longer forgetful or wetting my bed. I thank God for my deliverance.” We praise Jesus for this mighty healing in Aliness’ life!

DAUGHTER FOUND BY JESUS & THROAT HEALING

Margaret Mumba came to the third night of the gospel campaign. After hearing the message of the gospel and what it means to live for Jesus, she received Jesus for the first time as Lord and Savior of her life. Her face was glowing with joy as she held the New Believer’s booklet to her heart and was also connected to a local church that attended our “making disciples” trainings before the gospel campaign. What a joy when the lost are found by Jesus through the gift of salvation.

 

Margaret also shared that something pricked her throat that day and since then she had severe throat pain. She shared that because of it she was unable to talk all day, and she had to use hand signs in order to communicate to her children. She shared with the team that she knew it must be something bad spiritually due to how it felt, how it came, and how it silenced her voice.

 

When praying in the name of Jesus, she said, “When I touched my throat, I felt something as if it is melting, it was melting.”  She went on to say, “I felt free and the pain left.” She was fully healed by Jesus. Margaret smiled and shared, “I am happy because Jesus has healed me today. I am thanking God for what He has done today in my life.” She was found by Jesus and touched by him. What a wonderful Savior we have.

FROM HOPELESSNESS TO HEALED BY JESUS

Willard Kasungami, a 24-year-old young man, came to the first night of the gospel campaign. He shared that he was from out of town visiting family. While walking, he heard there was a gospel campaign happening and that miracles were taking place. He decided to come because he had a major issue in his left leg. His leg was in constant, severe pain and would shake uncontrollably, making it very difficult for him to go about daily life. Even sitting was hard because the shaking wouldn’t stop. His condition seemed more hopeless the longer it stayed. 


Willard explained how it all began one morning when he felt a muscle strain in his left leg. What started as a simple strain soon turned into chronic pain. Not long after, uncontrollable shaking began. He visited the hospital many times, but the doctors didn’t know what to do. He went from hospital to hospital, trying different doctors, but none could provide a solution. They prescribed painkillers, yet the pain and shaking remained.
 

While praying in the name of Jesus at the gospel campaign, Willard said he felt electricity go through his entire body. Right after the prayer, he noticed something had changed. His leg, after six long months, was no longer shaking. Then he realized the pain was completely gone. He stood up, walked, and felt no more pain or trembling.
 

Overwhelmed with joy, he came on stage and danced giving praise to God. His smile was huge. He was so thankful for what Jesus had done in his life. Not only did Jesus heal an issue the doctors couldn’t fix, but Jesus also touched his heart.

FROM SPECTATOR TO BELIEVER - A MIRACLE THAT CHANGED EVERYTHING

A man named Hopkins Kabwe came to our embrace gospel campaign. He worked in one of the mines only 15 minutes away from the field where we shared the gospel. He said that one month ago, he was working his shift deep below the earth, and then he felt a sharp prick on his right cheek. It felt like a jab from something like a pin. He quickly rubbed his cheek to soothe the pain. Hopkins did not think much about it and carried on with his work. As he continued with his work, the pain didn’t lessen but it only grew worse.

 

When he got to the surface, his friend noticed that his right cheek had swelled enormously. The swelling extended from the bottom of his right eye to his lower jaw, the size of about 7 cm. He quickly rushed to the hospital so the doctor could examine him. The hospital gave him some anti-inflammatory medicine and some pain killers to help him cope with the pain. In spite of the treatment, the swelling did not decrease for the past month.

 

Hopkins heard of miracles happening at the gospel campaign. Even though he heard that people testified, he didn’t believe it was true. He said, “I thought the people organizing the program had arranged for some people to come up to the stage and claim that a miracle had happened to them.” That night, Hopkins came to the field not with expectation but with skepticism. He wanted to come see what was happening since he didn’t believe it was true. He said, “I came not seeking a miracle but as a spectator.” 

 

After the gospel message, we prayed for those that were sick in the name of Jesus. God already had a plan to touch Hopkins that night and show him his great love for him. Hopkins shared that during the prayer, he felt something move in his cheek. Then he felt it move to his right eye. After that, the pain completely disappeared. Right after that, he noticed how all the swelling went away. He went home completely shocked by what Jesus did. 

 

The next day he came to testify of the supernatural miracle. He shared, “Everyone that saw my swollen face is surprised. They’ve been asking, what happened. I am amazed.” He was fully healed by Jesus and not only that but he left as a believer. He shared, “I didn’t expect a miracle. I thank God for His mercies.”

A TOUCH OF GOD'S POWER

Bright Bwalya came to the second night of the gospel campaign. He shared how he was playing at school, and then he fell on his right hand. He shared that he hurt his wrist so much that he could no longer close his right hand. Because of this, he also couldn’t write anymore, and he couldn’t do the regular things he needed to do. 

 

While praying in the name of Jesus, Bright said that he felt an electric shock go through his right hand. When it was time to test it, he said that he wiggled his hand to see if it was healed. He immediately noticed the pain was gone. He then made the fist sign, and then he knew he was fully healed. On the stage we celebrated this amazing miracle God did in Bright’s life.

HEALED OF NUMBNESS & SALVATION

Ruth Mwansa came to the second night of the gospel campaign. She had strong pain in both of her legs. She said the pain is terrible due to extreme numbness, and it even goes up to her waist. She said, “Even today, to come on this field, I had to push myself.” 

 

After praying in the name of Jesus, Ruth was fully healed by Jesus. When she stood on the stage, her joy overflowed as she shared, “I am very happy. I am very happy.” It was Jesus who healed her. But the miracle of healing was not the best part of this night in her life. 

 

Even more amazing than the miracle she experienced was that Ruth decided to give her life to Jesus that day. She made the life-changing decision to give her heart to Jesus. She was connected to a local church where she can grow in her faith, and she is now on her journey with Jesus. What a joy when hearts turn to Jesus and fall into the loving arms of God.

SALVATION & MIRACLE OF SIGHT

Peter, a 46 year old man, came to the first night of the gospel campaign. He was suffering from double vision. A condition where instead of one object he sees it twice. Because of his double vision, he could not read and struggled to perform other tasks. He also shared that two years ago, his back pain became so terrible that he had to slow down with work because the pain was no longer tolerable. This meant he and his family had less money, and it became very challenging for him and his family to live like that. When he saw a poster saying that there would be miracles at the gospel campaign, he decided to come and see where thousands of people gathered on the field to hear about Jesus.

 

After praying in the name of Jesus, Peter shared that he felt like a huge burden was lifted off his back and when he opened his eyes, he realized that he just received a miracle. His sight was no longer doubled. All of a sudden his sight was clear, and he saw perfectly. On top of that, his severe back pain disappeared. He stretched himself back and forth to see if he was in any pain when moving around. To his amazement, the pain was all gone. He was fully healed by Jesus. 

 

On the stage, he shared how he felt the power of God go through his body, and how happy he was for the miracle. But even greater was a heart miracle. That night, after hearing the gospel, what repentance and a life of following Jesus means, Peter made the most important decision of his life. He made Jesus his Lord and Savior. As we tested his sight, he read from the new believers booklet that he received and everyone celebrated what God had done. A lost son was touched by Jesus and received salvation. Peter was also connected to a local church through our follow-up system. What a wonderful God we have.

HEALED AND SET FREE BY JESUS

Mary came to the gospel campaign with three major issues. She had a stiffness in her hands that was so severe that she couldn’t use her hands for some everyday tasks. Mary also had vision that was so blurred that she struggled to even recognize faces. The third issue was something spiritual. She mentioned that she often felt this sensation of something going up and down her back. She said it makes the movement of what could be described as a snake or a worm. She shared that when she felt the crawling up and down her back, it deeply unsettled her. 

 

When we were praying for healing in Jesus’ name, she put her hands together, and she closed her eyes. Then, she felt a tingling sensation in her hands that kept on moving from her wrist to her fingertips. After what seemed like a minute the tingling subsided.

 

As she began to test her body, she noticed that her hands and eyes were fully healed. Praise God! Jesus did a miracle that only He can do. Mary shared how thankful she is for this miracle and also no longer having the sensation of something crawling up and down her back. She was fully healed and set free by Jesus.

SHE COULDN'T DRAW WATER THEN JESUS HEALED HER

Christine Mupeta came to the third night of the gospel campaign. She had pain in both of her hands. She said that she suffered from this pain all day and for many years now. Because of the pain she was not able to draw water, and it really affected her daily life. She was also unable to lift heavy things because the pain in both of her hands made it not possible to do so. 

 

After praying in the name of Jesus, Christine was fully healed by Jesus. On the stage she lifted a bag of around 10kg up and down first with her right hand and then with her left hand which would have been impossible before. We all celebrated with Christine what God did as she smiled with gratitude. We are in awe of Jesus.

MIRACULOUS HEALING OF DEMENTIA & SALVATION

struggling with dementia and living alone, Mary faced many difficult and even dangerous situations over time. Her confused state of mind often led her into trouble, and one of the most tragic incidents happened just weeks before the gospel campaign. While visiting her daughter’s area, due to her loss of memory, she accidentally entered a stranger’s home, thinking it was her daughter's house. She was violently beaten by people who believed she was a thief. Her arm was broken, she was hospitalized, and later officially diagnosed with dementia.

When Mary heard about a crowd gathering, she came to the Embrace Worldwide Gospel Campaign. During prayer for healing in Jesus’ name, she was supernaturally touched by Jesus. Mary came back to testify of what Jesus had done. Mary said, “I felt my mind clear, and my memory returned.” The confusion lifted. She could remember things she hadn’t in months. Joy filled her heart. Jesus fully healed her, and everyone around her celebrated this miracle.

Mary’s life is completely changed, and her story is just one of many from this gospel campaign that testifies Jesus can do what no human effort can do. Not only did Mary receive a creative miracle, but she also gave her heart to Jesus. She received our embrace new believers booklet and is now on her journey of growing in the faith. We connected Mary to a local church, and she is now walking closely with Jesus and growing in faith. Two months later, the Pastor wife called, amazed, sharing that Mary’s family is still in awe of what God did. Her mind, once clouded and confused, is now clear. Her life has been transformed by Jesus. Mary’s story stands as a powerful testimony that Jesus restores, heals, and does what no human effort can accomplish.
