Feathers and Gold Dust
Some time ago Pastor Bill Johnson gave testimony about how God drops feathers in random places as a sign and wonder. Someone critically asked him why would feathers drop. His answer was simply, “I don’t know, I didn’t do it”. Since being here at BSSM I have seen it happen five times. Four times at church and once while helping a handicap person find his way back home.
Have you heard of gold dust appearing on hands? In October I was ushering in the overflow room at Bethel Church. I had heard some commotion at the other side of the room but did not pay attention to it. A while later Bill Johnson announced that there was gold dust in the overflow room. I looked down at my hands and to my delight my hands were sparkling with gold specks. There were many others experiencing the same sign. This wonder has continued until this day on my hands. Gold dust manifestations are not unusual at Bethel. The specks on my hands get lighter and denser or smaller and larger from day to day. Most of the time I need direct light to see the specks and they are almost always only on my palms. If I hold my hand in direct sunlight then rub a section of them off so that I can no longer see them they will return in about 30 seconds while watching my hand. While a fellow missionary, Lisa Bradley, was here for a conference I passed some of the gold dust on to her hands. At last report she had returned to Honduras and the manifestation of the gold specks were still there. I need to make it clear that these manifestation have nothing to do with our spirituality. They are simple a sovereign sign that the Lord does to bring glory to himself.
We also have people in our school that have found gems and diamonds in random places. Recently a student took some diamonds he had found to a Jeweler. The Jeweler examined the first one of the group and confirmed it was a diamond then handed it backed to the student saying he would not touch any more of them because he believed they were stolen. Apparently the student did not look like someone that should have several diamonds in his pocket..
It seems to me that God is way bigger than anyone had every told me. His love is so amazing! Today, Sunday the 28th, I prayed for a man that could not see well enough to read a Bible. He had a dark pair of sunglasses on. I said a simple prayer and then he could read his Bible! Jesus did a miracle for him. Is that awesome or what? The man’s name is John and he affirmed several times he was not able to read it before. To God be the Glory!
The same God that inspired the words of the Bible lives today and He continues to confirm his Word with signs following. Take a risk and believe that God actually meant what He wrote. Miracles, signs and wonders are just God loving on His people.
