SAN PABLO MIRACLE HEALING CRUSADE AND CONFERENCE REPORT Nov. 25 - Dec. 1, 2001 Greetings precious chosen of the
Lord! Here’s just a brief sample of
the wonderful times we had from Sunday Nov. 25-Dec 1, 2001. God has revealed Himself in many
miracles of healing and words of knowledge. Nearly two dozen people responded in
salvation or rededication. Many experienced back, neck and shoulder pain
healing, sinuses opened, asthmatic relief, legs lengthened, arm and leg pains
relieved, etc. A pregnant lady on the way to
the hospital to have an emergency c-section stopped in the Service for prayer.
Her due date is December 25 but the baby had not moved in two days and was in
the wrong position for a normal delivery. As Hamilton prayed for her she said
she felt the baby move. After more
prayer the baby dropped into the proper position. She eventually went on to the
hospital but the doctor decided to put off the emergency c-section until further
notice and she was released to go home. One baptist lady in her
50-60’s came the first night suffering from a series of abuses in her church.
Her countenance was down and she was very depressed and hurt. After initial
prayer it became apparent she was not forgiving several key people, especially
her ex-husband who left her for a much younger woman. By the end of the night
she had experienced a noticeable breakthrough and was rolling on the floor in
holy laughter. She continued to
attend every meeting and each time came with a greater joy, enthusiasm,
confidence, and freedom. Just meeting her eyes at the door and greeting her
launched her back into holy laughter that continued on and off throughout the
service. Talking with her became pure joy to witness the transformation. An urgent call came twice on my
voice mail from a man named J.R. who was desperate to find relief from alcohol
and drug addiction. I invited him to come to the Services. When he arrived we
explained the order of service and the appropriate times to come forward for
prayer. During opening worship conviction came upon him and he sent the guy God spoke to me saying, “This is the beginning of many
drug and alcohol”. A twelve year old Mien girl
named Koi from our Youth Ministry asked Jasmine, my wife, if she should have
Hamilton pray about her pinky finger that was noticeably a whole fingernail size
shorter than the other. Jasmine
said sure. Jasmine then was called over to assist Hamilton praying for another
woman. Afterward Hamilton made his way over to Koi and began to pray for the
shorter finger to be lengthened. At least two eye witnesses, Cindy Ponce and
Aleeya Saechao watched her pinky finger grow in length and match the other
pinky. Understandably, Koi and Aleeya, her close friend, were ecstatic,
screaming with joy. We asked Koi if her parents were
aware of the shorter pinky. She said, yes. We told her to go home and show and
tell them what God did. In the following Sunday morning and evening Service we
began to see the firstfruits of this miracle. Aleeya’s older saved sister,
Kay, came to Church and the word of the Lord came forth to her at the altar time
that ‘today she would lead someone to Christ.’ She brought her next in age
unsaved sister and Koi’s older sister to the evening Service. At the altar
time both of these girls received Christ and Kay recommitted herself to the
Lord. The significance of the
“pinky” is subtle, but symbolic. The pinky is the smallest and least used
member of the hand. Koi is a very short, beautiful, unsuspecting Asian girl. San
Pablo is rapidly increasing in their Asian population. This city at one time had
the most in terms of land and potential for growth. But over the years it became
the smallest little town in West Contra Costa County, completely surrounded by
the large one-time industrial mecca of Richmond. Emmigrants from several other
nations have got their beginnings in America from San Pablo, giving San Pablo a
reputation of the City of beginnings. It was also the first inhabited town in
West County just after the original native Indian groups, even though it was one
of the last cities to incorporate. The spiritual significance of
the pinky is it’s ‘the least of these’ fingers on the hand. God told us in
early ‘99 as a result of our Church seeking the one ministry He would have our
small numbers and resources to concentrate on, to “Go after the kids, the
children are Mine”, saith the Lord. He said, “These are the least of
these.” Koi was one of the kids
we started ministering to she got saved and began bringing others to the Church.
Her nationality, the Mien, do not have their own country. They live among the
Lao, Thai and Chinese people groups in Laos, Thailand and China. They only
recently began getting their language into written form. The Mien are in some
ways a “least of these” people group. There were so many more
wonderful testimonies. There is a new freshness and a
greater team camaraderie than before the Meetings. All our leaders among the
adults and the youth are fired up to walk in this fresh anointing to save, heal,
deliver and strengthen everyone who has need. Be blessed and keep pressing on - relentlessly! Pastor Rich Kinney
